| - John's breakfast and lunch is located on 4th street in the NW. It's right across from fast lube. There is street parking but it can get busy so you might have to do a bit of walking.
If you've ever been to OEB then you will know what I mean when I say that the area is similar to OEB...very laidback on a semi quiet street but always busy. When we arrived, I noticed that there is seating outside (6 tables) but we decided to take a seat inside. We were greeted immediately and waited a short time as there was a couple ahead of us. The place is pretty cozy; you can see the kitchen and display when you walk in. We got seated and handed menus and ordered our drinks. The menu has a nice variety ranging from typical breakfast choices, to wonton soup, to vietnamese vermicelli to burgers and sandwiches. Okay, so it was around 2PM and I really wanted some breakfast and lunch selection so I decided to go with the eggs benny and a poutine. My gf decided to go with the regular size wonton soup. As we waited, a few more couples came in to dine.
First my eggs benny came then my poutine. I was pretty stoked. The poutine is crinkle cut fries topped with mozzarella cheese covered in gravy. Then eggs benny looked delicious, ham, poached eggs on top of English muffin covered in hollandaise sauce sprinkled with parsley, what's not to love? My gf's wonton soup looked great!! She was sick so I snatched some vegetables and a dumpling before she dug in. The vegetables were perfectly cooked and the dumpling was tasty. They definitely didn't cheap out on the filling!! My gf enjoyed her soup very much, even though she could only semi taste it and I enjoyed my crispy crinkle cut poutine and eggs benny. I was so full, but when they're staring at you, you just have to eat every single bite!!
There were two waitresses at the time and they are pretty much a team. One can take your order, the other can fill your water and then one can bring your food out. It's nice to see them coincide. If either needs help, I'm sure they will have each other's backs! Although busy, the waitresses were both very attentive, filling our water regularly and checking up on us to see if everything was fine.
In my humble opinion, John's breakfast and lunch is totally a ma and pa joint. We even got to meet the owners and they are super friendly! I think John's breakfast and lunch is the place to go if you want brunch that is easy on the wallet, nothing fancy but totally tasty, with friendly service!!! Give these folks a try!! I know I will be dining here again!
Beware! There may be longer waits on the weekends...but it is worth every second!
