Reviews for Old School in Toronto, ON
This place was so good. I went here for breakfast early at 9 am on a Saturday and it was fairly empty and easy to get a table at... that time. The service was really great. Our waiter was very kind and attentive. The pancakes were next level and the eggs Bennywas so delicious. Will definitely be coming back! Read more
Had reservations for 4 of us. It was warm enough for us to sit on the covered patio. Food was fantastic. We ordered chicken &... waffles, the signature pancakes, an egg breakfast and a salad. Service was great, food came out fast. Read more
Not exactly sure what the fuss is all about. The atmosphere is really good and the food is good. Now for me something different... is the concept of the waffle and fried chicken. I find the pancakes and French toast are the same as any other breakfast place Ihave ever been. Percolated coffee at 4 dollars a cup that?s a first for me?. Read more
Very tasty food and generous portions. We came here about 11am on Saturday morning, the place looked quite busy but we were able... to get a table for two on the patio without having to wait. We ordered fried chicken and waffles and blueberry pancakes. Bothwere very tasty and I would definitely recommend. Portions were generous and we were struggling to finish so you might considersharing. Read more
Went for a Saturday morning brunch. Was pretty crowded and had to wait to be attended for ordering food and paying the bill. But... TOTALLY worth the efforts! We tried their legendary blueberry hills pancake and chicken fingers waffles made with buttermilk andTabasco sauce. We had also got a cup of cappuccino. The chicken was very flavorful, I still had the taste of the chickenlingering in my palate for the following two days. The pancakes were fluffy, smooth and heavy. For people with small appetite,would recommend sharing. The cappuccino was a great accompaniment to our order! Rich and homely! Worth the effort to getting inand spending the money. Would suggest making a reservation, if waiting in long queue isn't your thing. Read more
The server was nice and the music playlist was great here (90s vibes). However, I thought the food was just okay. They need to... update their menu. Our first choice of drinks was not available. One drink brought out was wrong and another cup had somethingfloating at the bottom. My friend ordered gnocchi with grilled chicken but fried chicken was on the dish. A lot of littleerrors, but overall experience was just okay. The back patio was really cute though. Read more
Came here a bit after what I thought I had reserved. This place gets insane on weekends and almost impossible to get a seat so... the fact that they accommodated me was superb. I brought a close friend of mine and she told me that the Mac & cheese wasamazing so we shared that and also ordered 2 avocado eggs Benedict?s. The eggs Benedict was great but one of the eggs was alittle more cooked than the other and not as runny. The potatoes were probably the most impressive as they were falavorful andcooked to perfection (not too soft but just a little bite to them), and the salad was good however not used to having corn in itso took some getting used to. The Mac & cheese was very good however did not have that cheese pull that I was hoping. The topwas crisp which is how it should be so it was still above average. The service was average but most probably since it was sobusy. We asked for the bill and it took almost 40min to get it. The homemade hot sauce was very distinct. Smells likeblueberries and gives the spice a certain acidity but don?t worry the hot sauce does not taste like them. I actually bought abottle because it was so good. Would definitely try to come here again and not on one of there busiest days. Support localbusiness always. Read more
Such a fun brunch place! Came here on a Sunday (resos were made) 3 weeks ago and got seated outside. Weather was still nice so... it was perfect. Was told to order the pancakes as a side to share and was NOT disappointed. I don't normally order pancakes butthese were delicious, especially the butter on top. I ordered the regular breakfast and enjoyed it, my friend had the chicken &waffles and was underwhelmed. Inside is huge, so I'm sure it's great for bigger tables as well. Staff was super friendly andattentive. Definitely a place to try! Read more
