Horrible experience truly. I think this has got to be the worst experience I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The place itself was cute and decorated nicely and I was very happy upon arriving. Things went downhill as soon as our waitress came. I ordered chicken and waffles and asked for the sauce specifically on the side and said to her I don’t like when it is soggy so to please have it on the side and she said yes so it was so far so good. Then she brought the whole table of food out except mine which I understood as chicken takes longer so no problem there. But when it came out the sauce was all on top so I kindly told her I asked for it on the side and she didn’t offer to fix it, basically looked at me like “well too bad take it now that it’s here”. I asked her to get it redone how I had asked (because this dish is also $20) and she was so hesitant, said it would take a while in annoyance and then proceeded to roll her eyes at me which multiple people saw as well even the table beside. I was upset about this since I was very kind and she didn’t try to make the situation any better whatsoever. I ended up cancelling the order completely to which she barley even responded and just turned her back to me. When she came back for the bills she still charged me for the coffee I was served which was in my opinion ridiculous. She messes up my order, was so rude when I asked if it could be fixed, it got to the point I cancelled the order and sat there an hour and a half with no food and proceeded to not even comp my coffee? Absolutely horrible. The waitress I had was older with her hair in a ponytail taking care of the tables in the back of the restaurant, I wish I asked her name but forgot. Whoever she is I hope she improves for the future because this was a terrible experience, if I could give negative stars I would. NEVER returning.

I’d love to see local businesses do really well. I also know that there are 50 locations and Wimpy’s has been around as long as I can remember. So maybe people will think I’m nuts, but the food was BLECHHHH. Maybe different locations are different. If your fries are soggy and the burger is mucky, I won’t come back, ever. I’m sure people love this place but no. And being different is great but you have to have 4-6 bites of plain burger patty until you get to the bun and toppings. And what’s with the toppings on the bottom??? Don’t mess with classics unless you’re the best of the best. Wimpy’s is not that. Oh yeah- the bacon on my burger was wayyy undercooked. Blechhh.

I was here on Sunday morning. The AC was on full blast, it was an ice box in there. They didn't have any music or white noise on and it just seemed like I could hear all the chatter of the other tables. A person asked for more coffee and the waitress was just kinda cold when she yelled she would make another round soon. Maybe it's because it was so icy in there. The food was quick, but the bacon had a fair bit of fat on it, like almost all fat. I know it's kinda luck of the draw, but still, seemed like low quality. I have driven past this place many many times and this was my first time stopping in. I think I will skip it in the future, I'm on the hunt for my favourite breakfast place and had to at least include this one in the running.

Food is no longer the best here. Used to be good. Onion rings cooked too long and burned. Burger meat hard. Chicken waffle made my daughter feel sick. Place was empty for supper. I have no idea how this is rated 4. I won't be back.

Honestly, Ive been to other Wimpys before and very basic! This location was different. Sometimes in chains I wonder how the kitchen staff care, like if some high school kid hungover waiting for a quick paycheque is cooking. There was a couple very kind and skilled women back there! As a former chef and culinary school grad...this eggs benny chicken and waffles is something I think about all the time and drive an hour for...

Went in for dinner out. Seat yourself which is fine, except every table had dirty dishes or was not cleaned. Sat down at a table which had to be cleaned. Person did come and clean it off. Then wait another while before menus were brought over. Felt sorry for the wait staff person. Yes 1 person for the whole place. Decided it wasnt worth it. Told her thanks but we werent staying and walked out. Just not even a clean or welcome feeling when you walk in for this location.

December 21, 2023

Walked in, sign and waitress said to seat yourself so we did. Another family came in after us. We were ignored. The family got menus, drink order and drinks without us even being acknowledged at our table. After the family received their drinks, the waitress sat down for a break. This is when we left. It did look like they were short staffed. I understand that and am more than willing to work with that. However, at the very least we could have been brought a menu. So we went across the road and ate at another establishment.

Atmosphere was awful. No music playing, just a tinny sounding TV on a news channel. Menu was just a piece of paper that had already been used. Cant rate food as we got up and left. If this is a franchise there should be more checks on their locations. Only gave it one star as you cant give zero.

Went Sunday as we were in town for a soccer tournament, it was the only restaurant not busy at 10am, only a few tables when our group of about 30 walked in. More tables arrived as we were ordering, took over 1 hour and 30 mins for everyone to get their food, some kids didnt have enough time to eat before our next game. Only 2 servers and 2 cooks but regardless of how long it took service was not great. many tables who came after us were served first, coffee refills took 45 mins, omelet was overcooked as were the eggs in the eggs benedict, potatoes were very good.

My children and I went to Wimpys Diner today & we left completely unsatisfied & frustrated. Our service was slow, the waitress was rude and the food was horrible. We were charged an extra $4 on top of the meal cost for literally lettuce and dressing with a couple of croutons. The mashed potatoes were completely disgusting (over cooked, chunky & like paste). I tried getting our servers attention from the time we got our food, but we were ignored for almost our entire meal. Once I got the servers attention to complain about the food, she just said yeah I know and she still charged us for everything. When paying the bill, she gave us the bill at the checkout, and she kept walking away when we were trying to pay for the meal. I do NOT recommend this restaurant.

I have to admit that I was a regular to this Wimpys. I became a regular pre-Covid due to the fact that this place had the best most friendliest servers. Unfortunately due to Covid the three full time servers had to finding other work however the present servers are still good. Unfortunately I stopped going recently due to finding hair in my breakfast which I know happens however the way they dealt with it made it worse. Manager Only took my coffee off the bill and joked but it s really good hair like it was a bonus to have his hair in my meal.

My favorite place to eat , any time of day. My daughter , husband and I frequent this location and do our best to go atleast once a week for a family meal. The waitresses and waitor are all amazing and very good at their jobs. The cooks always do amazing with the food and as someone who is extremely picky this is hands down my favorite place to eat because its always great service and great food. The waitresses welcome my daughter (2yr) everytime she comes in, call her by her first name and are always giving us a wonderful warm space to enjoy our family time. Kitchen staff will smile and wave from kitchen window. Bathrooms, booths and tables are always very clean and serivce is quick. Very friendly place and always an excellent experience. I highly recommend this location. Kid-friendliness: My daughter (2) always has a good time and enjoys the kindness of the staff and the taste of the food.

I ordered breakfast, the eggs were very small, fake microwaved bacon, ciabatta bun garlic bread with no garlic taste and microwaved, my husband got a chicken sandwich with onions rings , the rings were over cooked, the Ceasar salad had 2 croutons and lettuce. Never again!!!!!!!!

Not usually one to complain on reviews. Came for lunch with my family. Arrived at 12:30 p.m. waited 1 hour and 10 minutes to receive food. We were not offered refills or attended during that time. Though it was busy when we arrived, the wait was completely unacceptable as people who arrived 45 minutes after us were being served before we were. Once we were served our breakfast we were not checked on again. Have been to this location many times. Today was beyond disappointing.

I was seated and waited patiently for a menu and a coffee. After watching the third party arriving after me given drinks and menus (25mins) decided this wasn t the place for me. The staff (who were working very hard) looked lost. There was no leadership or organization. I don t recommend this place during peak hours.

The food was okay, nothing special, but overall tasty. The service too, was just okay. The only real downside for me was that the restaurant itself really needed to be cleaned/straightened up. There were remnants of previous dinners on the floors, such as crumbs, old fries and some crumpled napkins and papers from straws. The restaurant itself was not busy, just ourselves and 2 other small tables. When we pointed out that the floor could use a sweeping, we were met with rolling eyes, and no, no one cleaned anything up.

What an amazing restaurant. The food is fabulous and the staff is always warming and friendly. I miss this restaurant badly from the shut down and cant wait to get back to the great dining experience.

I absolutely LOVE the Ancaster Wimpys Diner. The prices are range from cheap to reasonable, with a much higher quality of freshness when compared to higher priced competitors. The service is friendly, the food is made very fast. The atmosphere is low key and warm. The tremendous value and the relaxed, off the beaten path atmosphere draws me to dine there frequently!

Im originally from New Jersey, land of diners. So of course I was wary about my first trip to a Wimpys. I need not have been, and Ive been a customer for years now. Ive been to a number of different locations, but the Ancaster one is by far my favorite. The wait staff is one of the friendliest Ive encountered in any restaurant, and the food is always out quick and has never ince disappointed. I highly recommend stopping here for great food and way above average service.

Ive gone to this place plenty of times and each time Ive had a decent experience. The place is kept clean and tidy and I love the decor Service is hit and miss however. Ive had both really attentive wait staff and also wait staff that seem to have forgotten about us. Sometimes they forget condiments but they always apologize and get them for us. Also one time the waitress got my order wrong but she quickly went and fixed the mistake and I could clearly hear her telling the cooks it was her mistake so I appreciate the honesty. The two main things I get is the classic breakfast or the burger melt if Im there for lunch/dinner. The eggs are always cooked nicely and the toast is never burnt. Sausages are cooked nice as well. As a side note my little sister likes hers butterflied and they always do it for her so thats nice. There coffee is hit and miss though. The burger melt is always on point. I add mushrooms to it and they, along with the onions are cooked perfectly. Fries are decent but nothing to write home about. Overall its a nice place to go. More times then not I have a good time and good experience and have never left feeling ripped off or mad. Easily worth 4/5 stars

Manager and cook were not wearing masks while preparing food. I did not notice this until after I finished my meal. When I went up to pay I could see in the kitchen and they both were working within feet if each other cooking meals without masks.

Myself and my family eat here frequently. Whether its breakfast, lunch or dinner, THIS location is by far the best. Food is always great, staff is so nice and attentive. Its always super clean and the staff are walking around cleaning when they arent busy.
