Very busy breakfast spot; offering discounted breakfast specials before 8:30am. The service was nice, pleasant & speedy. Ordered eggs with crispy bacons. The potatoes were not as crunchy as other branches. The dining environment is smoky. It's nice to have a B & F in downtown that opens early.

The service was good , the waitresses checked-in all the time, but the food was disappointing. I'm not sure if it's only their seasonal beef special options, but it was flavorless. My poached eggs were completely hard cooked. The sauce is tasteless, sad. The best of the plates were the potatoes & the fruit. Maybe try other options.

I often cant decide between sweet & savory breakfast items, & here you dont need to. Its nice to get a sweet crepe, toast, eggs, bacon/sausage, etc. all in one order, but just make sure you are hungry! The poached egg on the eggs benedict was unfortunately cold, like it was prepared in advance & saved until serving. The other eggs were good, as were the potatoes & meats. Waffle was standard. Coffee & tea are included with of if the menu items. The crepes are quite thick here-personally I prefer them thinner. Overall I would recommend B&F for breakfast & brunch, especially with the big portion sizes & variety within orders

Visited during weekday morning. It was quiet & waitress was very attentive. Foods are very good value & the quality has exceeded my expectation for a typical franchise brunch place! Egg yolks on egg benedicts were HUGE (never seen one this big in the US 😂). Food didn't have too much seasoning & I liked it.

Really nice breakfast, massive portions, the only thing is my scrambled eggs were so dry. The sunnyside eggs were perfect, & so was everything else.

Breakfast was good. I ordered crispy french toast with caramel apple & Vegetarian 2 Egg skillet. Amazing food. In relative to other breakfast places, it is a little expensive place but worth it. Very crowded, very noisy & congested. You can sit for long as there is a queue of people. Overall a good experience.

Very nice location for large groups, once seated the service is quick. Very polite waiters. Menu was a bit confusing as it was not clearly written if coffee/tea was included with the dishes & there was no specific non-alcoholic menu (had to ask & be referred to an older menu.) But overall very satisfying, but I do wish the had egg Benedicts on the kids menu or some sort of mini menu; like imagine being able to order only half egg Benedicts & then a small order of waffles! I'd be there more often. Oh! & they did have almond milk as an alternative, definitely should be more visible than only when you ask!
