We both had the BLTs with home fries, pasta salad, and a side gravy. The salad had A LOT of carrots in it. It was not bad, but I wouldn't want it again. The BLT was good, it had a nice portion of bacon on it. The home fries were fine. The gravy tasted funky to both of us. We advised the server; she apologized and didn't charge us for it. We saw her inform the cook of the gravy, the cook didn't seem to care as she shrugged her shoulders. $35 including a tip. If it hadn't been for the gravy and the pasta salad, this would have been a 4/5 restaurant for us.

From the outside it looks like a store selling quirky signs , but was inside the service was really good and the serving staff engaged with the customers , the food was super good , and the signs made for amusing reading,
The costs were very good for what was served and our party of 4 left feeling satisfied and happy ready to continue our journey .

This place is amazing, at first when I looked from the outside of the mall, I wasn’t so interested, but when I came inside, sat down at my table, the service was great, and I had breakfast keep in mind. The Homefries, bacon, and eggs were absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this place if you want some good food. A small restaurant like this doesn’t have many tables, but a lot of Customers. Definitely will come again.

Let me start with the fact I don't normally give poor ratings, especially for small local businesses unless it was truly terrible. In this case, we didn't even get in the restaurant. We have called Shay's Cafe multiple times to either reserve a table or order food. Not once has the phone ever been picked up. This day when we showed up there were two massive tables for 6 to 8 people with reserved signs on them and empty. We waited in the mall until one family left but unfortunately it was only a table for three. We were four plus my 3-year-old. After the owner denied us entry because the table wasn't big enough, a customer nearby at a table for four offered to switch so we had room to eat. The owner then said no because with our 3 year old, we were 5 people. So we then asked how long of a wait, to which the owner simply said, "I can't do it. We can't accommodate. We're only going to get busier" . My parents, wife and I were in shock that we were just turned away from a half full restaurant. I wish I could rate the food, but obviously we never made it that far. Very disappointing to be turned away from one of the last breakfast joints in Espanola.

Shay's Cafe is an absolutely amazing place to stop for Breakfast or Lunch. Myself and two friends stopped in on the way back home to the GTA for a late lunch, got Lasagna, a BLT and this breakfast poutine thing and every single dish was fantastic.And the price! Three of us ate for just under $50, my mind was blown. This would have cost us double in GTA, if not more.I will 100% be back the next time I find myself in Espanola.
