Went for brunch recently and the experience was pretty blah. The coffee was weak and tasted more like hot water with milk and sugar; that wasn't a great start. I had the banana oatmeal pancakes which were nice in theory but I had to kind of saw through them with my knife they were so tough. Real maple syrup was a nice touch and the highlight of the meal (other than the company I was with). The biggest downer of the experience was the server, who seemed pretty miffed that we were there. I'm not sure if she was having a SUPER bad day, or is just generally surly, but she never offered us a refill on our coffee, took forever to take our order, never asked how anything was, sort of slammed the plates down on the table etc. I'm going to chalk it up to something really bad happening in her personal life, but in my personal life when I'm out for brunch visiting with a loved one it's kind of a drag to feel like you're inconveniencing your server to get a single (over the course of an hour and a half - one refill) on our coffee. I dared not ask for water.
Brunch is not a complicated food group; there are a lot of options in Toronto. I doubt I'd ever go back.
