Been here a bunch! My favourite breakfast place. It was my birthday yesterday and I ordered the eggs Benny Florentine, absolutely delicious. It came out pretty fast, the eggs were so soft which was perfect, the chunky potato’s so crispy and great seasoning. Got a PB&J milkshake which is the best milkshake I’ve ever tried. The waitress sang happy birthday to me, everyone was so nice. Definitely my favourite breakfast spot.

5 stars all around. There's a reason the walls are full of awards. This is Penticton's best family restaurant and it has stood the test of time.

Just what a diner is supposed to be! Everything is delicious, fun banter and the best and most efficient friendly service. If you want old school diner awesomeness, I recommend. Proper diner fries and burgers.

Food is great and prices are good and service is great. Been to a lot of restaurants in penticton for breakfast, this is the best and nothing else compares. No idea how anybody can give this place a bad review.

WHEN I SAY I WAS VISITED BY GOD WHEN I ATE THIS. The eggs benny is delightfully delicious, it’s creamy, eggy, crispy. And the potatoes, perfect not to mention the poutine! Omg I swear it’s so good. And THE BURGER. SO GOOD YUM. All the servers were kind, and even in a rush they always checked up on us. Will be here again, and every day
