NextDoor Restaurant is an absolute gem! If you're on the hunt for a cozy spot for brunch, look no further. Their brunch tower is a showstopper, and the food is seriously delicious with portions that won't leave you hungry. But what really sets them apart is the staff - they're incredibly friendly and welcoming. Trust me, you've got to try their signature dishes. NextDoor is definitely my go-to spot for a brunch that hits all the right notes!

I really enjoy the brunch at Next Door. It's upscale fusion brunch. If you want something different than the regular breakfast or smoked salmon eggs benedict, chicken and waffles, this is the venue to visit. I'd gone with a group of friends and we shared a four- person brunch tower and added additional pancakes so that everyone in the group could try it. A really fun morning!

My girlfriend and I went for the brunch tower and the foods were so good and surprised us! The portions were so big and the tower has many different types! Staff were nice and friendly and they will check if everything was good. The environment of the restaurant was great too, we sit on the bar table that day coz we don't have any bookings but that's a nice way to watch the bartender make the drinks to us!! The only points deducted to their price - I think a bit expensive than expected!

We arrived on time for 12:15pm res and still had to wait about like 10-15 min outside on the deck (gorgeous view btw, with the water mill and pond). But it was funny to see them turning ppl away constantly if they were just coming as walk-ins.The hostess seated us and a server came over to let us know the daily food and drink specials.The brunch tower seemed very intriguing to me but it sounded like A LOT of food and my girlfriend (even though hangry at that point) knew she wasn't gonna be able to help me tackle even half the tower haha. So we settled on duck confit pancakes and huevos rancheros.Ok, so the food comes out and I'm pleasantly surprised with the portion sizes. The plates were quite hefty and you get a good amount of food (which I appreciate cuz I've got a big appetite). The presentation looked fantastic. Looked like michelin star plating.The duck had crispy skin, succulent meat (they actually give you a whole duck leg whereas I've been to restos that literally give you the drumstick and that's it). The pancakes were moist and fluffy.The rancheros were packed with goodies. I liked the fact that they actually cooked the tater tots well (crispy on the outside and tender on the inside). A lot of places screw up the potatoes. It also comes with a lot of egg and pulled pork which we really appreciated.To top it all off, we had some fresh mango peach juice to wash it all down. Yum!It's cracking up into expensive territory for brunch for sure (but I've seen way more egregious pricing downtown). I still rate it a 5 star experience. Great food, great presentation, great service and still borderline ok on the prices. Probably the best brunch spot in the markham area if you ask me. It tops Alchemy Coffee brunch for me (which is literally in the same neighbourhood).I know they host weddings and special events too and I'm kinda curious. I might inquire about it sometime.

I love their breakfast menu!!! We picked a random selection for 6 people and was pleasantly surprised with the whole experience. The staff is very good and accommodating. The place is senior friendly and wheelchair accessible. A great place for family gatherings in the heart of Unionville.

My friend and I had a lovely time for brunch! It was a lovely place to have a chat. The energy felt amazing. We wanted to have something light and refreshing and the restaurant gladly accommodated. Looking forward to coming back here with my husband and brothers!Parking: The parking is a little bit challenging if you have larger vehicles but you can certainly find parking conveniently near the restaurant.

This place never disappoints. We really like the rotating menu!Some of our favourites are the BBQ Eel Croissant and the Salted Egg Seafood Pasta (please bring it back!)
I love going here when I am in the neighbourhood. It's one of the only places I can get a vegan brunch, and I appreciate the place for being so inclusive.The Cereal Crunch French Toast is my go-to. So beautiful to look at and even better in my belly!

First time coming here for a friends birthday dinner. Expected a high quality experience but was quickly underwhelmed by the experience. On the positive side the waiting staff filled up our waters on a frequent enough basis, the appetizer I got was fairly good as well, strongly recommend the baria spring rolls. Other than that the rest of the experience was quite bad.1) It took 1h to get our starters then another 30min to receiver our mains.2) The food came out on an inconsistent basis. Someone would get their starter then it would be a solid 10min until another got theirs.3) The food was way over cooked. Didn’t want to complain because it would just take a whole lot of time before a replacement came.Overall was not a great experience, had to scarf down our food because it came out so late and had to make our next venue. Also note that we were the only ones in the restaurant.Perhaps they were understaffed in the kitchen but I wouldn’t use that as an excuse for burnt burgers all around.

Very slow. Wait staff is inexperienced / overwhelmed / confused. Food was ok. Not worth the price.

Took forever to get seated. Didn’t seem that busy. Service was exceptionally slow and had to ask for order multiple times. Food was mid. Wish I could have my $300 and 2 hours back.
