| - Let me begin by saying I'm not the biggest fan of Cora's or Fran's! Many a nights spent at various residences on College/Carlton St. has made me realize little excites my taste buds on this street east of Spadina.
This makes Daybreak a teeny tiny little gem by comparison; there isn't much of a wait time, the service is good, and the prices are reasonable.
First thing to mention is that you should go here hungry!! Daybreak serves possibly the largest brunch portions of any diner I have been to in Toronto! The standard Benedict will come with 3 large poached eggs, toast as well as English muffins, hash browns, and surprise pancakes! Yes, the famous surprise pancakes are real and you do seem to get 2 large fluffy pancakes with some of the meals (this is a big bonus as I'm always stuck between choosing sweet or savoury items at brunch!)
Overall, The most impressive part of Daybreak for me are the freshly shredded potato, non deep fried hash browns! Beyond the sides, I would recommend the eggs Benny and Chorizo omelette from what I've tried so far, and advise looking elsewhere if you are interested in salads.
Check it out if you're in the area, not necessarily worth traveling across town.
