| - Stumbled upon Lawrence while shopping in mile end. Was a bit delirious after the 5 hour drive from Toronto, so looked on Yelp for brunch in the area & this was the closest to where we were standing.
Amazing discovery.
We got in just before 2pm, it was packed & the hostess told us there was about a 20 minute wait. Luckily a table by the entrance opened up & after it was turned down by the people in front of us- we were seated. Note to all of you table snobs, this place is the size of my living room. It really doesn't matter where you sit.
I ordered the English breakfast, while my boyfriend opted for the kidney & eggs dish. Both were spectacular. My meal came with eggs, bacon, sausage, beans, toast & hash. The serving size was generous, but after a long drive we had quite the appetite. My boyfriend really enjoyed the kidney, saying it was a first for him but definitely not the last.
I deducted a star because of the service. Was not the worst but definitely could be better. The woman who greeted us at the front was really sweet, but the two other people who served us came off a bit snobbish and cold. In the end this didn't ruin our experience at Lawrence.
