  • I'd rate Olde Village 2 stars only because the owners are quite nice. First thing you notice when walking into this tiny shop is that this place needs a reno, stat. You know when hipsters purposely find a hole-in-the-wall place and carry mismatched, vintage plates across well-worn, old-skool wooden or laminate floors? Yeah, this ain't that. This is genuine article, just plain old. No A/C, floors look sticky, wall paint is peeling. Don't ever use the bathroom if you're of delicate sensibilities. The eggs benedicts are very so-so. The kitchen is cordoned off by a high divider, so I can't say this for sure, but I'm pretty sure the hollandaise is not house-made. It tastes like hollandaise made of margarine. On the plus side, they are very generous and will add extra on top if you ask for it. On the down side, you will soon realize you really don't want it. Eggs are poached OK. Solid but not rubbery whites, runny yolk on the inside. I'm not a fan of peameal bacon, and this one had a very strong porky smell - I guess great if you like peameal, not so great if you don't. Also ordered a stack of 3 chocolate chip pancakes. Not bad, just regular ol' pancakes that taste like they're made from a box mix... I really struggled about posting this because I wish success for the kindly owners. It would be great to have a locally owned breakfast spot in Markham. As a customer, here are the changes I'd hope for: - Renovation! The run-down look is not only uncomfortable, it's hard to keep clean. A large ant ran across my table at one point. It was just an ant, so I kept it to myself and discretely smushed it. The sticky floors, walls, tables (pretty much sticky everything); the unfinished bathroom; the thick/hot, humid air... - Source another hollandaise made of actual butter. Best would be house-made hollandaise. It takes a lot of egg yolks, but if you invest in the eggs you can use the egg whites for... - House-made pancakes, if they're not already, are super easy and inexpensive to make. The pancakes I had were a little dense on texture. There are a few techniques to make pancakes fluffy, including whipping the egg whites for the batter. And that's the end of my review!
