| - If it's not on the list now, expect to see The Federal on a "best brunch in Toronto" list soon. My friends and I went here on a Tuesday around 10:30am for brunch and left satisfied.
The Federal is a small restaurant in West Dundas, a neighborhood with plenty of quality restaurants and cafes. When you walk in, you're flanked by two glass windows that look once part of a pharmacy. Walking in, you'll see the bar in the back, brick walls, and several tables in a small room. Despite the size, they make good use of space and fit our group of five, including a high chair for our 16-month baby.
The service was decent (it's a hipster place so expect a little attitude from the staff) and the food good. I ordered Eggs Federal, an English muffin stuffed with bacon, poached eggs, and the most creamy mushroom tarragon sauce. For drinks, they have brunch cocktails AND hard cider ON TAP!
My entire Toronto trip, I craved another Eggs Federal breakfast sandwich. Go! You won't be disappointed.
