What in the world did I just eat? It was some honey crumble donut and I think it’s the best donut bite I’ve ever had in my life.
Dear god please make those more often I’ll buy it everyday. I’m not even a donut person and that is the best donut I’ve ever had.

Delightful weekend brunch spot! Cute and cozy booths and friendly staff! Great menu, food is a little under seasoned but dishes are still a solid 8/10!
Make sure you waitlist on their website as soon as it opens, especially on Sat/Sun. I put my name down for a party of four at 9:15 AM on a Saturday and we got our table around 11:45. Luckily, I had called them couple days prior and they advised that it would be like that, so I actually stayed home and did a few chores before heading over around 11ish.

They won’t seat a single person at a table so they kicked me out. They only let singles on the bar stools which only accommodate average sized humans, the bar stools discriminate against big and tall people. So two small humans can get a table but a 300lb human who plans on ordering for two cannot get a table.
The crazy part is you are a diner. You should call it the White Lilly restaurant for couples and average sized humans. No large single humans!
( I also got a $50 parking ticket while being denied service at White Lily (while tables were open and available).)
Clearly profits are all these people are about!! Let everyone in the community eat instead of discriminating against large single humans, we are people too!!!!

The pancake was nothing special — pretty average overall. But it’s nice that you can join the waitlist online, so you don’t have to wait too long in person.

White Lily Diner absolutely blew me away. We started with the broccoli salad and radicchio salad — both were out of this world. The dressings were so well-balanced and flavorful, especially the radicchio one, which I think was a seasonal special — crisp, fresh, and perfectly dressed.
Then came the salmon toast, which might honestly be one of the best bites I’ve had all year. The bread itself was incredible — crusty, chewy, and full of flavor — topped with smashed capers and olive oil that brought everything together beautifully.
For mains, our table had the meatloaf dinner, Reuben, patty melt, and hot turkey dinner. I was lucky enough to try a bit of everything, and there wasn’t a single miss. Every dish tasted like it was made with care — rich, comforting, and layered with flavor. I also tried a side of sausage, which had this amazing peppery kick that stood out in the best way.
The music and overall vibe were perfect — that classic diner feel but elevated, with an energy that just makes you want to stay longer. Our server was fantastic — attentive, friendly, and really added to the experience.
And just when I thought it couldn’t get better, we finished with their house-made donuts — absolutely divine. Light, fluffy, and perfectly sweet — the ideal ending to an already unforgettable meal.
White Lily Diner is the kind of place that reminds you why eating out can be such a joy. Whether you’re coming with friends, family, or on a date, it’s a total win. Every bite was a moment of pure happiness.
This place is a staple in Toronto. Best steak and eggs in town!

The food was good. Fresh ingredients, nicely prepared, and you can tell there's thought behind each dish. The service fit the vibe: warm, cozy, and laid-back.
We ordered:
• White Lily Farms salad • Etta's breakfast • Summer toast with pickled zucchini • Steak n' Eggs
Def the kinda spot that feels easy to settle into for a slow morning (if you can get a table). That said, it wasn't quite enough for me to come back and wait through a long list again. Still a solid all-day breakfast spot if you're in the area and don't mind taking your time. Highly recommended to join the waitlist the moment they open lol.
