Kane's has been in Calgary far longer than I have. And I had never before been in to visit. But brunch on the weekend changed that!
The diner fits with what you'd expect. Located right in from of Kane's Harley Davidson dealership, it's full of memorabilia, checkered floor tiles, booths and a jukebox. There are entrances at both ends of the restaurant, so if shopping for your new bike made you hungry, there's no need to walk all the way around to the front of the building!
It wasn't terribly busy for a Saturday morning. The first sunny day after nearly 10 days of rain though, I bet everyone was out enjoying the sunshine. The menu is stocked full of big-appetite kind of options. Waffles and pancakes and sandwiches and burgers that I could see many a hungry man devouring. I wasn't so much on the devouring that day, so I ordered the Night Train. Think fruit and yoghurt in a parfait glass. The parfait glass made it quite pretty! And it had 3 French toast "fingers" on the side... ie a healthy slice of bread cut into 3 more slender pieces. Just the right amount to get my fill of brunch yumminess without feeling like I'd be waddling out the front door.
The diner itself could use a bit of a makeover. But gals are friendly and relaxed, the food is tasty, my coffee kept being refilled and the prices are reasonable. I'd go back for more of that yoghurt parfait!
