The first and only place in Canada that we had to give ZERO tips to justify their horrible food and service. From the outside it seems a interesting old diner to go. For the food, I thought we were prisoners from old Fort Henry. Waitress has attitude and dare to yell at the customers. Don't go here unless you want to be humiliated.
Watch out for these "greasy" guys if you go for breakfast. Breakfast prices do NOT include coffee...that's OK... but they don't tell you....I had breakfast and ordered a coffee with it as most do...and as I usually do in many restaurants I get my coffee topped up...I have never been charged extra at any restaurant in the WORLD except here!....I ordered extra coffee three times...I got two top ups and then one new cup full (I thought that was nice!)....but when got my bill I was charged for the food and for 4 coffees....made for an expensive breakfast! I ended up speaking to the owner but got nowhere!...he said that's their policy.....I said OK...BUT state this in your menu! Watch out for this greasy spoon....that was 2 years ago....I bet their menu still hasn't been changed to indicate no free top-ups with breakfast!
The food there is simple and good but the service varies from the extremely charming and polite to the downright rude and abusive. I found out the name of the one fantastic server is Adeline or Adelina (sp?). Request her and don't take no for an answer. You are the customer and if it's a choice between them losing your business or sitting you in her section, they will take the latter. There is a woman who works there who's name I did not catch but she is older (probably late 50's) who is Greek and just very obnoxious. She visibly shoves the other waitresses out of her way in view of customers and is rude to them in front of customers. It seems like she bullies the other servers. Her behaviour was downright unacceptable. I don't know who she thinks she is but if I go in again and see her acting like this again, I will call the better business beaureaux and ask that they send an inspector there. On a better note, Adeline(a) and the younger girls are just lovely. I will always specifically request the young girl I mentioned (if she is working). At all costs I will not be served by the older woman even if I have to politely tell her to her face. I would give it five stars if not for the rude employee.
Great mom and pop food, fast service excelant price. A little noisy and always busy but waiteresses are great and would recommend this for a good fast breakfast on a weekend day.
A good place to grab a cheap but good breakfast. Their steak and eggs is one of my favorite breakfasts when we visit Kingston. Only drawback to the place is that is in constantly packed, very noisy, and you have to yell back and forth with the waitresses (who are otherwise quite polite) to place an order.
