We came here for breakfast and loved the vibe right away. The place is filled with old posters, license plates, jukeboxes, scooters, and even saxophones hanging from the ceiling, with classic red booths that make it feel like a diner from the 80s. The menu was also fun, with lots of photos next to the dishes so you know exactly what to expect.

I ordered crepes with ham, egg, and cheese, and they came with 100% maple syrup in a small bottle you can even take home. For the side I could pick between home fries or fruit, and I went with the fruit. The portion was generous and came with bananas, strawberries, blueberries, and even papaya. Everything was fresh and delicious, and I really enjoyed it.

It was also nice to see so many regulars, which says a lot about the place. Definitely somewhere I’d come back to. Highly recommend!

This place was way better food quality and attention to detail a few years ago, as the COVID lockdowns ended.

Lately, and for the last two trips, I've had the wrong food brought out and undercooked homefries. This time, the cheese for my omelette was included almost as an afterthought, on top. Kinda gross looking, really.

I ate the food. It was palatable, but we're done.

For the price and poor quality of the food and lack of attention to detail, I won't be making a third visit and can't recommend this location to anyone.

A retro brunch spot that feels straight out of a red booth with a comforting food and well-made, especially the milkshake.Friendly service and nostalgic vibes make it worth the weekend crowd.

The best place to eat and get your monies worth and in thisday and age that counts

Worst burger I've had in years, anywhere. Fries were pathetic and the Coke was flatter than a pancake.

Got helped by Kelly to make a valentines treat for my long distance partner and she was such an angel for making our day so much more special! Service 100/10!

Great little place. Really feels like an old-style diner. We went there for breakfast. My wife didn't like hers unfortunately. Said the eggs were too runny, the bacon not crispy enough. She only told me this after though. Tough to fix after the fact. Anyway, I for one liked my food. But I do have to point out that this particular location is not wheelchair accessible;despite what Google says. I would go back, only to prove my wife wrong.

Despite the mostly positive reviews, the lunch experience was the most disappointing of our stay. Beyond the rather dubious appearance of the place, the cuisine is nothing exceptional and is even rather mediocre. Errors and omissions on our order with an additional "absence of smile" on the part of the waitress, the food was really average for prices that were however correct compared to the competition. But if you have the chance, visit the competition and save your time.

This morning my co worker and I were searching for a breakfast spot for a quick meeting and then found wimpys. We were greeted at the door with a big smile and a hello and found the service felt like a real diner and the portions were incredibly generous. Safe to say I’ll be coming back

Food is nothing special. Got that cook everything in one pan kind of look to it when you see how much "extra" burnt bit are in the food. The portion size is generous.

Service is okay, but again, nothing special. Typical dinner efficiency and welcoming.

A lot of folks seem to think the atmosphere is "amazing." It's not. Typical 80s "funky retro dinner" but it not the 80s anymore. If you look closer as you sit and wait for your food, you'll quickly notice just how dirty and unkempt the place is. Stains on the walls are surly years old.
