Opening hours

I stumbled on this restaurant today, decided to have lunch there with my 13-yr old son... and loved everything about it! The wait staff were attentive, polite and good humored, the food was fresh and the servings were generous. If you like good food in a relaxing, friendly environment this is the place!

In need of an early morning breakfast spot, I stumbled upon Elgin Street Diner on Google Maps. Opting for convenience over familiarity, I ventured in without prior knowledge of what to expect. True to its name, the diner ambiance was charming, and the cleanliness added to the appeal. Welcomed by two courteous staff members, I settled in for a meal. Opting for the Blue Plate Special, a hearty combination of three eggs, bacon, sausages, ham, beans, a full-sized poutine, and coffee, I was pleasantly surprised by the flavors. However, the portion sizes were undeniably excessive. While the food was delicious, the sheer amount seemed unrealistic for most diners to conquer. Although the quality was commendable, the steep price tag of over $30, including tip, for breakfast gave pause. Personally, I would prefer more modest portions at a lower cost. Overall, Elgin Street Diner offers a satisfying breakfast experience, albeit with room for adjustment in portion sizes and pricing.

Tried their regular burger, but it was a bit dry and honestly just okay. I was hoping for more seasoning, especially for the price. The fries were plentiful but lacked seasoning, and in my opinion, they were the worst kind of fries you could get. On the bright side, the pickles were fantastic, but the coleslaw was just average. Even though I skipped the milkshake, it's their specialty and I would always recommend getting it. It's open 24/7, so it's a popular spot for late-night hangs with friends, but personally, I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

All around awesome experience! Waiter was fantastic! Patient and kind with my 5 y.o daughter. The food delicious, just as I remember from my college days 10 years ago. We didn't try them but they had milkshakes big enough to feed an army and desserts that made you want to lick the display case window!

It is one of life’s greatest joys to eat breakfast food outside of breakfast. I went fully controversial by ordering a ginger ale with it because dinner is a mindset not a set of physical set of characteristics. The egg French toast was phenomenal and the bread was something that I will genuinely try to replicate at home. A lovely experience 10/10
