My family and I had a lovely experience at this cozy, traditional breakfast spot today in Cornwall. The ambiance was super cute, warm, and homey, making it the perfect place to start the day. While the menu focuses primarily on classic options like bacon, ham, and eggs, I appreciated some what vegetarian option - pancake, though I wasn’t sure if the batter contained eggs. The house fries was amazing. The taste was absolutely delightful—everything was fresh and tasted super good, and the service was friendly and attentive. I’m giving 5 however I still wish there were more vegetarian options and perhaps waffles added to the menu. These small additions could make this charming little place even more amazing! One thing to note is that the place only accepts cash. Overall, it’s a very small yet interesting breakfast spot, and I’d happily return for the great food and lovely vibe. Definitely worth a visit!
Best experience like a trip down memory lane with my dad. After breakfast I had to try the rhubarb cobbler and did I mention the Rye bread from Riley’s bakery across the street and then the reasonably priced gas fill up around the corner. My world went right side up with one visit. If I lived there I’d be one of the many regulars.
This quaint and cozy restaurant is exactly the type of place that just feels like home. Val is so friendly and goes above and beyond. You will not find a more affordable breakfast place in town and she truly makes everything with care. Weekends are busy!! It is cash only, ATM on site.
Friendly, amazing service. Top-notch food. Prices are on point. This is a true Cornwall gem!
I recently had breakfast at Val & Pauline's diner and it was a wonderful experience. I ordered their special which included 2 eggs over easy, 3 pieces of bacon, home fries, and brown toast. The food was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing. It felt like having breakfast made from your grandma, it was that delicious! The atmosphere of the diner was also very inviting and comfortable. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the service was excellent. Overall, I had a fantastic experience at Val & Pauline's diner and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great breakfast spot. I will definitely be coming back again soon!
We came in for Mother's day. They seemed to only have two waitresses and the restaurant became full soon after our arrival. We overheard one waitress say they had considered calling someone else in, but decoded against it, but they had forgotten about the addition of their regulars and how busy it would be due to the holiday. It took a long time between ordering and receiving our food. My food was good (french toast and bacon) and so was my neice's food (sausage hashbrown, toast and eggs). Unfortunately, my sister's french toast was soggy as if undercooked, and many of my mom's grapes were mushy although the rest of the fruit was fresh. They forgot to bring out the fried potatoes for two dishes until we reminded them near the end of our meal. Drinks weren't topped up until we reminded them either. I think if they had more staff, this would have been a better experience. An upside is that they offer the meals for very reasonable prices. This restaurant is cash only, with a small sign outside the door warning of this. It may be a good idea for the staff to remind their patrons when taking the order and a preemptive reminder when they make the bill, that they are cash only and that they have an ATM at the back. This way, the customers aren't surprised or confused when they are asked to pay in cash.
A little scratch diner located right on Pitt st. I stopped in for a quick bite & was pleasantly surprised. Ordered the bacon cheeseburger special with a side salad Greek which was the size of a full sized one! Ample amounts of fixings and lots of black olives and feta! My cheeseburger was fantastic, perfectly cooked on a grilltop with crispy edges and tasty patties. Bacon was thick and crispy and the bun was fresh! Dessert was a warmed up caramel sauce cake that literally tasted like a bowl of pancakes and syrup. It was quite enjoyable. My server was very friendly and sitting up on the bar made you feel like you were at someone's home. A great little diner, $10.95 after tax with a drink is an amazing price. Only drawbacks for some is the dated decor and cash only.
Great service and great food! The portion sizes are perfect so you don't end up wasting and they have Turkey bacon! Plus the prices and great. What more could a girl ask for?
Great Breakfast!
What youre looking for if you want homestyle

Love coming here, play darts with the owners best food and great people!
A well hidden gem. The ladies are great and the food is very well priced.
Downtown restaurant for breakfast (and lunch on weekdays only). Very friendly staff. Cash only, but ATM available near the washrooms. Walking distance from the Cornwall Square.
This is what I would call your traditional diner. Everyone knows everyone by their first name and a bit of fun is had by all just based on the conversation. The breakfast was good, maybe just a little overcooked. But overall a very good place to eat at a very reasonable price. The staff are friendly willing to help and have a joke.
Very good and very cautious about showing yu are vaccine
Favourite breakfast place...all homemade food
Great small diner, great food and very socialable friendly staff. Great meat pies, apple pies and many more made to order. My top breakfast dinner, very Impressed! Stop in and experience the great food and dont forget to check out their amazing collection of Coca-Cola historic memorabilia as you enter!
