Ben & Florentine is described as a reliable breakfast spot with a broad menu and vegetarian options, where free parking, clean restrooms, and comfortable seating make for a convenient visit near the highway. Reviews note fast and courteous service and a consistently friendly staff, with many diners returning throughout the year due to good food and value, though service can slow when the restaurant is very busy. The menu is extensive and food items such as morning potatoes are praised for being crispy and well seasoned, and there is a variety of choices to suit different tastes, including a croissan'wich that some describe as tasty despite its quirky take. Allergy awareness is mentioned in at least one review, with careful handling of dairy ingredients. A few critics mention minor issues like a hair on the plate or longer waits, but these are outliers in an overall positive impression. Overall these reviews depict a welcoming, convenient breakfast destination with solid food quality, good portions, and a lively but not overpowering atmosphere.
Getting the worst service ever at a breakfast place is quite a feat. The server just straight out leaves while someone at the table was still talking to her. Just because she did not want to accomodate an allergy. Rude & unacceptable for a restaurant, honestly.
Don't eat here if you want to be treated with minimum respect. There are many places around with better service.

Laisser mon assiette pas manger ! Le patin du burger pas cuit tout mouillé, & j'ai réussi à avoir autre café quand j'ai demandé ma facture ….. désolée mais à éviter comme place
Restaurant vide …. On comprend pourquoi
This is my all time favourite breakfast spot, the potatoes are the best morning potatoes in my opinion crispy & well seasoned. They have an extensive menu, so much options to choose from, something for everyone! The staff is always very nice & the owner is so sweet. Service can sometimes be slow but thst inky because the place gets sooooo busy!
