Bunchberry Diner Restaurant is one of Aurora ’s most popular establishments… and now arriving in Aurora! This family friendly establishment caters to all ages at all times. They are famous for their Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner Specials as well as the . Kids’ Menu is also available
Had a great experience! Our server Liz was one of the most friendlest people I have ever encountered.She was very attentive and quick, in other words the most perfect server you could ask for.That's why I gave her a $10 tip on a $34 bill.If only other restaurants had servers as good as her.
Great all day breakfast restaurant. Open till 4 pm only. Early closeing, most likely, since it is located in an industrial area. Liz is very cheerful and friendly. My western omelet came out very quickly. They brewed a fresh pot of coffee for me. Parking is available along the three sides of the building.
Pulled pork Egg Benedict is good and great portion. 2 Eggs breakfast is ok, but sweet potato fries are no taste, a bit disappointed. Seats are clean and comfortable. Staff is attentive. A bit pricy, if can reduce $2-3 dollars, it comes more reasonable.
This diner is a gem 💎 the service is welcoming and quick (thank you Abby). The food is fresh and delicious (love the breakfast sausages). And most importantly, you feel like you’re in a real old skool diner 👍 Love this place, you have a customer for life 💕
Great restaurant with good service. Their portions are good and priced well. Will definitely go back for more!
Standard diner feel with an extensive menu. We ended up getting a skillet and an omelette, pretty much the same ingredients but cooked in a different way. Nothing terribly special, but still well-cooked. Our server unfortunately didn’t come check on us even once. If we want a quick breakfast meal in the area, this isn’t a bad option.
It wasn't what I expected based on Google Rate! It definitely has the vibe of old neighborhood diners, but it sure can use a bit of attention. The table tops were visibly dirty the way that you didn't wanna touch them in any circumstances! Menu was weird and could be more flexible for breakfast the least! There is no way to get a 2-egg breakfast and pay for same unless it is Mon-Fri 7-11am! Also, adults can't order kid's breakfast!! So, the smallest portion available on a Sat morning would be "Sam's Breakfast" which has 3 eggs and you'll pay for the same price even if you ask for 2 eggs! The service for an almost empty place was slow. Bacon and Home Fries weren't freshly prepped. Also, the eggs could use 20-30 sec more cooking. But, the lady server was nice, that's why I gave 2 stars. On the other hand, per what we've received and the atmosphere, the prices weren't cheap to say you get what you pay for! Like, a regular glass of OJ for $4.75 before tax & tip!! I don't think I'd like to come back here although the location is great for Central Aurora.
It feels amazing when you walk into a place which calls itself a diner that has the same feel- checkered floors, bright colored seating and quick service! I had gone here with a friend and we were short on time since we had to head out quickly. As soon as we were seated a kind server took our order and served us some water. Within a span of 10-12 minutes both our breakfasts were there and they tasted so good! Our experience overall was fantastic. It is a must visit spot if you're in Aurora.
Excellent breakfast!
The staff was rushing and fairly unfriendly as a result. Food took forever. No opportunity for a coffee refill. Disappointing experience.
Such a home comfort place to dine. Especially for breakfast and lunch. Dona really does an amazing job taking care of us. The kitchen staff is also amazing. Highly recommend Bunchberry!
Probably one of the best restaurants in Aurora - Newmarket area. Strongly recommend forgood quality food and drinks
This is a diner - and for this class of restaurant Bunchberry is pretty darn good. The breakfast menu is quite broad with lots of options, the food is good-great and service is friendly and fast. And the prices are very reasonable! On Saturdays go early, before 9:30, as the diner gets very busy after that.
Went here with family on a Saturday morning for breakfast. The place was quite full with only a few tables free. There was a great atmosphere Parking is free and was almost full. Service was friendly and fast. The breakfast was traditional and great. The home fries are excellent. Coffee is good and many refills. Menu is extensive with something for everyone. Traditional old style diner with interior decor to match. Great place for a big breakfast for the hungry.
Great restaurant with great service! Their portions are good and priced well. Will definitely go back for more
Probably the best breakfast in Aurora
It s a great breakfast spot and really enjoyed the eggs and sausages. The coffee was freshly served and pretty good too.
Breakfast style diner with a very large assortment of foods to pick from. The home fries were good and crispy, the food was quick. All around decent place.
My family and friends have been coming to this restaurant before it was bunchberry!! I went out for lunch with my girlfriend the other day ordered Chicken club with sweet potatoe fries salad with grilled chicken and soup . The chicken was off as in bad with both of our meals. The new owners charged me for the soup and sweet potatoe fries and the coffee. I can believe they charged us . I will definitely not be going back nor will our family. Ill make sure to let people know how we were treated after being loyal customers for the past 25+ years
Really great place for both breakfast and lunch. Great prices! Highly recommend this place
Simple and good bruncb with a decent menu. Excellent service.
Excellent food, super great service and very friendly staff! Every time I visit my friends in the area, we go here for breakfast/brunch. Their breakfast options are all delicious, with good proportions. We especially love the pancakes as they are very soft and fluffy! Vegetarian options: Multiple vegetarian options if you eat eggs, with possibility to make minimal substitutions (replacing meat protein with egg protein) Parking: Small parking lot that gets filled up quickly in the mornings, especially on weekends. You will want to get in before the rush to snag a spot
An Aurora breakfast staple. Food is always good. Still need to try their dinner menu though.
Just had a great experience...My grandson ordered the avocado toast Benedict. It came with an unusual toast (he expected regular toast). He is allergic to peanuts so he asked. They did not know if had nuts so they happily replaced his lunch. The waitress was awesome.
Food and atmosphere was great. The only problem there were lots of dead flies on windows sills. Should be cleaned
Great selection and the service is great
This is our go to breakfast place. Service and food is always fantastic. Friendly servers, good portions and pricing! Highly recommended. Parking: Not a big parking space. You can park across the street or next door at peak times.
Awesome people. And great waitresses great prices
First time here... really nice experience we had a group of 7 but half of us were late. They were nice enough to wait for the others to come and take the order. Really good portion of food for the money that youre spending. were so full that we didnt eat until late at night ... for sure well be back
The best part of the experience was not having to wait at all, the cooks are throwing it down back there. The sparkling booths and checkerboard make for a fun atmosphere. The breakfast here was only ok. The potatoes were bland, the syrup is the fake kind, the HP sauce and Frank s sauce bottles looked like they had been refilled repeatedly. We wouldn t dare use them. Coffee refills are not automatic. We were charged for a second coffee when we asked for a refill. It s just not the kind of service you expect in a bustling diner. Service could ve been better. The hedges outside are overgrown with weeds too. The makings are here for a good diner, but more effort all around will improve the experience.
The best burger Ive ever had
I have been twice now. Amazing both times.
Food was ok. Had calamari but chewy and fishy. Poutine was good but better if the gravy was hot. Service was bad. She took our order brought our food and that was it. Never checked on us once. We needed refills but she was too busy talking to friends.
An excellent breakfast! My steak Benedict was absolutely delicious with the meat flavorful and grilled perfectly to my liking. I will absolutely order that again.
Great food and portions. Recommended.
Nice retro place to have breakfast. Great selection and friendly people
Went there today for the first time. Breakfast was good. Will try maybe dinner next time.
First time at this establishment and WOW is all I can say. The food and service was like no other. I really enjoyed there breakfast (Bennys was so delicious.). Such a friendly family establishment. Very clean. Portions were plenty and our waitress Liz was such a delight and on point with our first time at this restaurant. We did not feel rushed like some other places that my family has dined at. Our waitress took the time to go over the menu and was very attentive with my coffee refills. Will definitely be going back again soon.
Old school breakfast, friendly staff. Excellent coffee. Parking: 20 spots Food : 5/5 |
I was travelling to Aurora yesterday and while my way back I spotted this Diner BUNCHBERRY DINER. Since, I am fr, Mississauga and the city thrives on versatile food from all cultures, yet, unfortunately we have dont have much traditional Diners, and so, I decided to try out Bunchberry. The server was very friendly, and helped me to chose from menu. The American steak that I ordered was really a big serving, amazing and juicy taste with mash potatoes, mushroom, carrots. Its gravy with blackpepper corn was very delicious. Highly recommend this place to visit, and enjoy its old fashioned family run local Diner food. Simply to say.... AWESOME..! Parking: more than 20+. Wheelchair accessibility: It is available
Greek salad. No dressing. Just a bunch of lettuce with almost nothing else. If you re a rabbit this would be great. For people? Tasteless and a rip off. Do better. Take out - should have checked before I left with it.
The food was simply superb, every bite a delightful explosion of flavor.
Very mediocre breakfast. The service was really good, but the food was the same as Wimpy or something of this sort. Nothing original, nothing interesting, and not really delicious. The bacon was too dry but not crispy. Cheese on a skillet was but melted. Dont remember all the details but absolutely nothing special. Dont think wed come there again.
Really great breakfast spot with the best early bird in town!
A typical diner with a variety of breakfast options.
Awesome place in Aurora for a get together breakfast with friends, family or business associates. Parking: Easy to find, get to and get on your way after your breakfast.
Always enjoy eating there
Generous portions reasonable prices.
Its very reasonably priced, just not the best all-around breakfast restaurant Ive been to.
I had the opportunity to eat at Bunchberry Diner today. Overall the cost was appropriate for a brunch diner. Service was quick and efficient. Under $20 for steak and 3 eggs and tasted great. Steak could have been cooked a minute longer but thats okay. The waitress was attentive and courteous. If Im in the area again Ill certainly go again.
Great breakfast!!
Great local diner! Portions seem to be smaller than 6 months ago but overall still great!
Good place to meet with friends, or to take the kids for lunch. Classic Eggs and Bacon or Waffles. Good sandwiches for Lunches.
staff was great! service & food were quick and delicious. Will definately be back
Amazing place to go for breakfast. One of my favourite places. Just can t beat it. Food is always consistent, great portions. Go check it out!
It s seems like a family run business, but their food and service was exceptional. The food was really good and we loved the waiter he was an older gentleman who was very good.
I really enjoyed my brief stop in here while waiting for the Go Train. Service was fast, friendly, and the breakfast was how I wanted it. Thank you
Perhaps the best in aurora for breakfast. Excellent!
This diner feels the part. Its food is decent and affordable, and their potatoes are delicious.
Great food and atmosphere, though better not to get in during the rush hour lunch time ))
Good food. Good service.
Food with good taste and server Amber very pleasant and menu knowledge suggestions.
Service and food are amazing! Reasonably priced. Food
Best breakfast and service in town!!
Friendly family diner. Large portions. The Meatloaf and Chicken Curry are our favourites.
Donna is an absolute joy. She makes everyone feel so welcome when you walk in the restaurant! The food is great and the amount of food for the money is well worth it! Keep up the amazing service Bunchberry! Food : 5/5
Ive had the pleasure of dining here a couple of times. Once for breakfast and once for lunch. Good diner style food with a large menu. All your breakfast staples, sandwiches, wraps, burgers etc... Worth a visit.
Wow beautiful and very good allllllllllll l love everything.
Authentic real Diner food. Appreciate the really great food. Been a while enjoying a real Diner experience. Thank you. And my mother and I demolished the apple pie for dessert.
Great breakfast with reasonable prices. Server was very friendly and the atmosphere to me back to the old fashioned diner days. Gotta try this place!
Good for breakfast/ brunch. Ordered the classic Canadian Breakfast and was very filling. Also had the lunch burger and was great.
The food and service were great. The portions are plenty and their coffee tasted fresh and was refilled often enough by our server. Well definitely go back. Parking: There are enough parking spots on most days except for weekend brunch times. Kid-friendliness: Good selection of food for kids.
Service was quick and food was awesome! Best pancakes Ive ever had. Price point is fantastic for everything you get. Definitely will be back.
Visited with my wife and 8 yr son. We all loved it. Great food, great atmosphere, friendly staff. Love this place.
Food was fresh hot Staff friendly and attentive Good portion for your dollar Food : 5/5
Quality fresh food prepared properly. Very generous portions, reasonable prices. Innovative daily specials! Vegetarian options: Recommend Chicken Souvlaki Great omelettes and Greek Salads Very wide selection Love the all day breakfast option
Delicious food. The staff are friendly and efficient. Highly recommend ordering breakfast. Good size portions.
Excellent eggs benny and crab cakes!
The sign may say All Welcome but it certainly didn t feel that way today. My girlfriend and I chose this place for breakfast for its fun retro vibe, but we expected only the decor to be from the past. The food was fresh but our servers attitude certainly was not. There was no friendliness, just the bare minimum communication and she avoided eye contact as much as she could. I don t think our eyes met for more than a slight glance as she was focussed on looking away. I might attribute it to nervousness but she seemed to be friendly and chipper with her other customers. She clearly served us because she had to but it was clear that she didn t want to. The food was delicious, well portioned, and visually pleasing but the general feeling of being unwelcome and unaccepted was too much to ever want to return. I would not recommend this place to anyone who would have faced discrimination in the 50s. It seems like that attitude is a combo package with the cute booths and milkshakes.
I havent eaten so tasty for a long time! I liked everything. I recommend it!
Was a quiet place for a Saturday dinner. Had the roast beef which was good. Portions are generous for the price and worth it. Service was good and the place was tidy & clean.
Was ok. Pancakes tasted weird, and they need to buy better table syrup. I wont go out of my way to eat here again. Food
First time visiting this diner. Our waitress was friendly, quick service. Good portion and price is decent. Their home fries is better than Eggmart for sure, prices are cheaper then Markham Station. On the other hand Milkshake is a bit small for the price, Markham station has a thicker and bigger milkshake for similar price. Overall, it is a good all-day breakfast place for a family to enjoy. Parking: Limited parking. There might not be a enough parking if the diner is at full capacity. Kid-friendliness: Lots of booths for family of 4. Friendly staff
Love all of it!!! Great food and service.
Food, staff and owners are amazing! Highly recommend
Enjoyed a wonderful dinner, our server Abby was great. Both owners were working in the kitchen, they were friendly and checked to make sure we were enjoying everything. Great prices for great homemade food. Highly recommend.
1st time there...great breakfast...
Great pancakes
Great place for breakfast and the service is so nice!! They make over easy eggs perfectly too!! Thanks Briar!!
Have been there for breakfast before and enjoyed it so we ordered dinner through a delivery app. Definitely one of the best places for delivery orders. Food was amazing and packaged with so much care. When we received the order it was still steaming hot. Will definitely be back!
Excellent food, excellent portions, and excellent prices. Went with a group of 5 and 4 of 5 of the meals were superb. Only disappointment was the chocolate chip pancakes which werent necessarily chocolate chip, but more of a chocolate spread ontop of a plain pancake and were also overtly sweet. The lunch meals are also delicious. A great spot for breakfast/lunch
Good food and great service!
Food and service are great
Great food and service...very welcoming atmosphere
Friendly environment and great services
One of the best breakfast places in the area, nice variety of dishes, reasonable prices, retro atmosphere and friendly service.
Food is pretty good diner fare. Menu is large and more varied than I expected. Music is retro, at one point playing 80s disco.
Service was great! Food was great! Coffee was okay. Lovely atmosphere and friendly people! I had avocado toast without the benny sauce.
Heidi is great.
Just came back from Dog Tales and wanted a quick lunch. Classic diner vibes and food. Generous portions, not too greasy and everything came out fast. Our server was a bit grumpy and didn t bring us water til we asked the third time but overall not bad.
Love love Bunchberry... my favourite breakfast spot... food is always fresh, fast, and delicious... service is fast and attentive ...
It was an awesome breakfast!
GOOD SOLID FOOD AND SERVICE: we start by during the week and have our choice of booths or tables. Food came out quickly, was hot, and fairly large portions for a good price.
Wonderful friendly professional service by our waitress this evening. Excellent portion sizes. Food was great. Very good prices.
Have been at this restaurant at least a half dozen times. Food is always fresh and good, service is always friendly and prices aren t bad either. It s my go to place for a good meal. I highly recommend.
Vegetarian options: Great veggie omelet
Back again on a Saturday morning. Full but didnt have to wait. Menu still needs changing. Service was great. Nice to have someone to keep topping up your coffee. I took a standard breakfast. The portions are more than ample and well cooked. Could do with some friendly background music. The type everyone has on their playlist. I liked it last time and I liked it this time. I only have good reasons to return. Hopefully Ill see you there!!
A nice little diner with well prepared food. The place is often very busy. The staff are friendly and efficient. A great breakfast so give it a try
The atmosphere was lively, food was delicious. Potatoes were well seasoned and the customer service we received was friendly. Would recommend for families.
I can honestly say that this is the best breakfast place I have ever been to. You need to try this place best breakfast place in all of Aurora.
Always delicious. Always great service. My favourite breakfast and brunch place in town.
Food was great, servers were friendly and well be heading back soon!
Delicious food, arrived quick despite volume of patrons!
First time eating here yesterday. The food was excellent. Great portions. Our server was busy and by herself but she did a great job handling the pressure. Will be back!!
Good food at great value
Went there for dinner in Saturday night. Kids meal had chicken fingers burnt - i bad to scrape off some stuff so our kid can enjoy her meal Fish ans chips are ok Pulled pork poutine - could be better. Portions are big but quality desires to be a tad higher. Would we return? I doubt it.
We had a wonderful fathers day lunch with amazing service. Definitely a go to for good food
Food was absolutely fantastic.
Classic diner with delicious food. Exceptional service.
Salmon Benedict was impressive. Hardworking staff, Breyer was efficient & kind.
Absolutely amazing family place in Aurora Good was good, thank you for good coffee Food
The food was great and the portions were very generous. Service was good. Parking: Spots can be hard to find during busy times. Food : 5/5 |
We had a wonderful experience here today. The breakfast menu was extensive with lots of choices. The egg benedict and omelette we ordered are delicious and the service was warm. Will certainly come back and recommend to our friends.
Fantastic food ! Very well seasoned and big healthy portions. However service was terrible, we had Amber as our waitress and my husband had to go looking for her few times , coffee refill , plate clearing , utensils, getting the bill.. ect. I felt like he became our waiter lol We would be back for sure, just maybe we would ask to sit in the other section.
I would have enjoyed my 1st visit to this restaurant more if they had air conditioning it was so hot I could not even appreciate my meal !! In addition frozen home fries added to my disappointment. The original diner had fresh cut home fries ??
Have always liked the food and service here. No air conditioning ?? I maybe... back in the fall will not be coming in anytime soon !! Feel bad for the servers working here ! Atmosphere : 1/5
Excellent eggs Benedict , very generous portions. Our server was attentive but not bothersome. Will definitely return.
Great old school diner with affordable food and a great atmosphere. If hes available, try to get David as your server. Best server ever! I dont offer throw around 30% tips, but it still felt like I was shorting the man.
Food was great! Atmosphere was awesome! Service from our server, David, was absolutely top notch. Definitely listen to his recommendations!
The food is always amazing here and the service is great!
Great food. Friendly staff. A wonderful place to go to.
Had a lovely experience, considering place was busy. Service was prompt, server was pleasant and the ambiance takes it over the top .
Good place for breakfast, old school breakfast choices, but well prepare and a good flavour
Came in with my friend in lives in the area and I can see why he comes here. Great service and good food at fair prices. Plenty of tables and booths to choose from and the food came out fast even with the dining room almost full on a Sunday morning. Coffee was good and refills timely. Definitely be back when I m in the neighbourhood.
We go here every week. Weve tried lots of different menu items and for the most part enjoyed everything. The nachos werent that great. The breakfasts are always good, especially the omelets. The French toast isnt always consistent. Sometimes its a bit soggy. The staff is always great. The atmosphere is cute. Like an old-fashioned diner.
Awesome breakfast accompanied by awesome service! Will definitely be back!
Delicious and very friendly staff. Prices are great
Such a great place, love it!
Excellent service and food!
A nice family restaurant. I think they changed name and owners for a few years. First time visit under new management. Very classic interior design , food & service is good. My special experience in this restaurant , first time in my life...... a young gentleman has paid my bill .....by the time I noticed , he has left already. The waitress told me that, you are lucky today, someone has paid your bill ! . Oh ! I didnt know who he is ? I only remember that he wears long hair, reading a book while enjoying his breakfast . I didnt get a chance to thank him. Hope he can get a chance to read this post and know that I wanted to thank him. Thank You!
I m so glad we stumbled upon this little diner. The smoked salmon Benedict was delicious. The serving kept me full all day. The service was great. It was busy in there at 11:30 am but we still got our food quickly. Will be back again!!!
If I could give more stars I would. Bunchberry is the best place ever. The staff are the friendliest people, and the food is always so tasty. So much choice on the menu, everything we ve had, from breakfast to dinner, is always incredible.
I had breakfast while waiting for an appointment and I was not disappointed. The waitress was super quick and efficient and ran the front of the house all by herself. I saw her greet her regular customers with coffee and promptly put in their order. They have a nice selection for morning special and generous plates. Good place for breakfast!
Nice restaurant. Good prices, friendly staff.
Some interesting non standard breakfast diner options. Both regular and other options are great.
Old school diner feel. Very good food.
such a cute diner, loved the environment, great food
Their cooks are very skilled, and their service staff is very efficient. I hope they continue to be excellent and are treated well.
Good menu selection, very reasonably priced. Food was ready quickly and done right. I added a small fruit bowl which was delicious, and had a good assortment of fruits. Coffee was hot and fresh. Parking: Small number of shared parking spots, but also parking available across the street.
They know what I want every time.
Always great food and service
Always great food
I came to Bunchberry on a Sunday for Breakfast. there is limited parking but absolutly worth you waiting for a spot. the diner is super cute and the customer service and food are outstanding. if this is your first tie going I recommend the caramelized Apple French toast.
Excellent breakfast with. Beautiful Companions Food
Good food and our waitress was amazing but couldnt they at least add new booths and clean up rather than just a new name? Inside disappointed
Food was ok, it used to be better, the service !!, we were given our food, and one cup of coffee, though we asked for refills, inattentive.
Very classic diner with a wonderful atmosphere and delicious food.
The diner was cute and the menu has lots of options. Unfortunately service was not good and despite the wait, the food wasn t either.
I had a nice brunch with my mom. The food proportions were really good. Everything was tasty. The service was amazing. The atmosphere was so so it was really busy. I felt like it wasn t really organized at the front but I guess they were shortstaffed but everything tasted great. I just wish they cook the turkey bacon a little bit more. It felt kind of raw to me even though it s not really raw But it was too soft. They didn t ask what I wanted.
Place has an old dinner feel, shiny leather booths, but its very clean. The food was delicious and my kids really enjoyed the milkshakes. The staff were very friendly and didnt take long for food to be served. Definitely stopping.of and trying something different on the.menu next time in area.
ITS A REAL DINER! I am obsessed with this breakfast place because of the atmosphere. Its got the checkerboard walls the red glitter seats and booths. I can order a healthy breakfast or a big fat breakfast if I want. I can even order a burger for breaky. I really like the special because it comes with pancakes, eggs, toast and breakfast potatoes ( which are to die for btw). I really like the staff they are quick and efficient. I got my breakfast after 5 mins of ordering it with all the extras already set on the table. I have nothing to complain about and I will keep going here :)
Great food with big portions for a good price. Home fries in particular were really tasty
This is the best place Ive ever been to. The food is amazing, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. BEST DINER BURGERS EVER. Amazing service and super fast. Best diner hands down. My favorite restaurant. Local gem.
Dont take my star rating the wrong way. This is a great old school diner. Service is good. Food is good. Atmosphere is what I want when I go to a place like this. I go here often for a reason. Its kind of for old people so food could be seasoned a bit better but they make good meals for me to take my mom to for a nice lunch. Check it out just know what you in for!
Service was excellent. She was attentive, and friendly. I ordered avocado toast eggs Benedict . Sadly it was cold. I know avacado and bruschetta are cold, so maybe thats what affected my eggs. I didnt complain, I ate it. It was delicious. If the bruschetta and avacado had been room temperature it wouldve helped Im sure. My husband had a skillet and his was also not hot. Somewhat warm he said. My 1st experience with this place and I was recommended to go there. Wed likely give them another try.
Food is ok. Nothing super special. However I was simewhat upset with the lack of flexibility and accomodation for diatery restrictions. There is no way to replace parts of the meal like home fries and toast with healthier options of the same value. The only option was to replace the fries with 4 slices of tomato. Nothing else. Not coming again Dietary restrictions: Really bad at accomodating dietary restrictions
Good food, great service, reasonable prices! What more could you ask for! Food : 5/5
My favourite brunch place in town.
