| - Looking for a place to get a solid breakfast? That's how I came to trying this place out by being on the search for a what random places Brampton had to offer for breakfast.
I came to Stacy Lee's Family Restaurant to have a typical breakfast that could fill my appetite. At first glance, the decor and furniture are outdated which gives you a sense that this restaurant has possibly been here for a while. Although its tattered look, it really gives the aura that its essentially a family restaurant.
Right off that bat after sitting at our booth, the waitress came and poured us coffee that we were surprisingly charged for. (Obviously after Hindsight, we should've asked if we were getting charged for it and nothing comes free, but in our defense her approach allowed us to believe they were free). But I digress.
What my girlfriend and I ordered was the "Hungry Man's Breakfast" which in surprisingly for us, was actually ALOT of food for what the cost is. This breakfast costed us $10.99 + tax and it came with 3 Eggs, a choice of 4 pieces of ham/bacon/sausage, 3 buttermilk pancakes, potato hashbrowns and 3 slices of toast sliced diagonally. For the price, its a solid breakfast that really gets the job done regarding your appetite.
However speaking individually about the breakfast, you can't really mess up the standard eggs, toast and sausage/ham/bacon. What I really critique is the "hashbrown" and their pancake. Starting with the hashbrown, they serve the kind that is like a cubed french fry but they were really good. These hasbrowns where fresh, crunchy on the outside and soft in the inside.
However the pancakes fell short for me and my girlfriend (who is a pancake connoisseur). They are buttermilk pancakes but are a little too "bready" for my taste. Don't confuse this with fluffy pancakes, I say bready in the way that it absorbs the syrup and when you eat the pancake, it seems like it still needs more. Its more of a sponge, but the taste is just like any other pancake.
Overall this place offers a solid breakfast for a very affordable price. I would personally come back just for the amount you get because I know I would be full. Basically more food and cheaper than Denny's LOL
