I love the idea of a cider bar and they have an incredible selection and lovely tasting flights. They also have a delightful little patio on the side and pretty nice service.
What drives me absolutely bananas (pancakes) about brunch in Toronto is this: precious dishes with too much frou frou which actually don't taste like much, are way too small and overpriced. Unfortunately, Her Father's Cider brunch falls into this trap.
Myself and a friend had the $16 Duck Hash which was a bed of spinach, deep-fried duck confit, one egg, sweet potatoes, a small spread of bechamel and a few other bits. Deep-frying the confit left it tasteless and bland (basically salty, crunchy bundles that took away any of the tender, deeply-flavoured joy you usually find in duck confit). The bechamel was hidden at the bottom and while nice, didn't add much flavour to a dish already lacking in it. And the portion was too small - both my female friend and I (who don't tend to eat an absurd amount) felt this way.
The waffle was one waffle quartered with a small scoop of berries and cream for $13. My friend's $14 grain bowl was a bit of a better value but he also ordered a salad (essentially greens with granola on it, but at least it was only $8 - probably the best value on the menu).
Come for the cider and the service but find your food elsewhere.
