Good breakfast - huge portions, good service and reasonable prices.
Food was delicious! Staff was great. It is noisy in the restaurant, but most likely due to the steady stream of people in and out.
Our party of 8 went to Angels Diner today for our daughter's birthday brunch. There was a huge selection of food, even our pickiest eaters found something they would eat. All of our meals were delicious and plentiful. Our server was very friendly and attentive, and the servers refilled our beverages often. When the meal was done the server brought out ice cream with a candle in it and helped sing happy birthday to our daughter. The atmosphere is clean and inviting. We had a terrific experience at angels diner and will definitely visit again when we are in town visiting our daughter.
Love the food. Went there Sunday morning for breakfast. Had to wait in line for roughly 10mins to be seated. After ordering food had to wait almost 25mins to be served. Worth the wait I will say. - Great Food - Efficient staff - Reasonable pricing I highly recommend this Diner.
My husband and I went there twice while staying in Guelph. The first time, we had breakfast, which was amazing. The second time, we went for dinner and didn’t find the dinner food as good or tasty as the breakfast foods. I would definitely say it’s worth a visit for breakfast / brunch. The retro music theme is very cool. The staff are great.
Came here to order a smoked meat poutine for takeout as I was craving one. The total came out to $19.20 exactly after tax. However, what I got instead would never pass as poutine in Canada. I say this especially as someone who has grown up living in Quebec for a number of years. Even by Ontario standards I would consider it abysmal. The pictures I took should show the reasons why. They were taken shortly after I got back from ordering it. I gave two stars instead of 1 because the staff helping me were polite. The fries were undoubtedly overcooked and old, as they were dry and starchy inside and had no seasoning. The gravy also lacked flavour and did nothing to compliment the fries, other than make them less dry. The real kicker was the near absolute lack of cheese in this whole poutine. Not even talking about proper cheese curds, but just any kind of cheese. I could count on my single hand how many spots of white cheese I could find in the whole container. The only fair part of the dish was the smoked meat, and it was mediocre. The portion size was also disappointing as it was quite small, although I wouldn’t have wanted more of this anyways (see picture with the tall boy can as a comparison). I’m not sure if management is cutting corners to save costs but this felt like I got duped. Especially for a premium price of almost $20 for poutine, it has to be good. Do yourself a favour and don’t make the same mistake I did.
The food was delicious. The portions were incredibly generous, eg., a kid's burger and fries meal was actually comparable to an adult serving at most other family restaurants. The staff members were super-friendly, thoughtful, professional, and outgoing. The service was exceptional. The atmosphere was warm, cozy, and lovely - excellent for a family meal at any time of day. Their meatloaf, mashed potatoes, veggies, and gravy were heavenly! The prices are very affordable. I'd definitely be returning and recommending here to friends!
This place is the tops! Fantastic food! Superb service! Came here last Sunday for a late lunch around 1:30-1:45. Was told that they would stop serving their full breakfast menu at 2. Our server said not to worry though which was great since we did order two breakfasts. One of the French toast pieces was undercooked - never seen this before - and our server promptly took care of it. Smoked meat was outstanding!!! The potatoes were awesome as well…both the home fries and regular fries. They do have some great desserts, but we were too full to grab one….next time!
Fabulous beef liver; lovely server
Best Reuben in town
Been several times in the past 10 years and continues to be an excellent place to eat
Always a good experience here. We normally just go for breakfast and I always have the smoked meat in my omelet ( so tasty) and of course a huge shoutout to the waitresses who work hard to make it a good experience and have a return customer Food
Goto restaurant for all meals
Hey now mmm Montreal smoked meat
Great spot, cool vintage 50s style decor, huge menu, great food, fast, friendly service!
Great 50s diner vibe. Perhaps a bit loud with the hard surfaces. Breakfast is one of the best out there. Lots of choice and great taste. Wheelchair accessibility: Theres a ramp at the end of the walkway near the front door. No level change from walkway into restaurant.
What a gem of a place! Great vibe and music. Old school rock and roll diner. We had a blast. Excellent service, great food and fun atmosphere. We had the Angel Reuben and pulled pork poutine. Top notch. Delicious. No pics because we devoured everything immediately. Lol. Our server Max was very nice and attentive, welcoming and went above and beyond. He deserves a shout out. Thank you!
Great food. Service was fast and courteous. Would recommend it to anyone.
Great food and atmosphere
- Fast - Kind - Clean - Comfy - Reasonable radio volume - Family friendly - Lots of options with the exception of trying something special or new - Would go again if in the area - All places are expensive, this isnt the worst but could be better given SOME plate portion sizes
It was always good. Despite we lined up for 15 minutes on Sunday, it was worth it.
Great experience. Great 80s vibe. Service was incredible. Food was good. Highly recommend! Food
Class act from owners at Angels, moment of silence on remembrance day
This is an annual breakfast meeting place for my family and I. Always a great experience!!
Our server was fantastic, she had a great memory of one of us tgat had been there before. She was super cheery and seemed to really care that our visit was great
Great food reasonably priced. Best breakfast in guelph
Awesome place very pleasant people food was excellent and hot
Big portions great service..
Quality of the food was not good. Most of it tasted like it came out of a can.
So slow very busy they do not care about the customer
Our server was great, atmosphere was inviting and bustling. The food on the other hand is where I have issue, $19.99 for the smoked meat benny, a minimal amount of meat, it was actually embarrassing. There s another place 10 mins away, we attend every Sunday but this time we decided to go to Angels, we needed to be on that side of town and the wait wasn t long, for $15.95 I get at least double the amount of meat, I don t mind paying $ for quality, but $19.99 is a out right ridiculous price for such minuscule amount of smoked meat. Won t be returning.
Good to go to Sanmai
It was a great delicious steak dinner but my waitress was very rude!!! I left really disappointed and sad!!!! I don t think I should ever come back here again!!! Kid-friendliness: It was a great delicious steak dinner but my waitress was very rude!!! I left really disappointed and sad!!!! I don t think I should ever come back here again!!!
Lovely 70s style diner with delicious food Wheelchair accessibility: Is wheelchair accessible Food : 5/5 |
I moved my garnish to find a lone curly hair on my plate! The server took it back and probably they just flicked it off and gave it back to me.
Classic 50s style Diner with attentive and friendly staff. Unfortunately the prices seem to have crept up a lot in recent years and the quality hasnt quite matched the pace. The atmosphere and staff make this a wonderful place to go for a basic breakfast, but I would look elsewhere for lunch or dinner.
The food was awful, and the service and atmosphere couldnt save it. Poutine was really bad. Wont cheese, meh fries. Mediocre gravy. The Reuben was average, but not worth the money. Food : 1/5
Our server was very polite and friendly. Breakfast orders were as expected. Scrambled eggs were slightly rubbery in texture. A long hair was in the eggs, but decided to be polite and discretely removed it. When paying the bill, I politely mentioned to the employee, in a low, calm voice, that 7 plastic straws seemed rather excessive, especially when paper straws are readily available. All plastics are harmful to the environment. Upon exiting the restaurant, I felt a hand on my shoulder from behind. The co-owner accused me of yelling at the staff, and stated that she already knew how I felt about the straws. I did NOT raise my voice, and mentioned that protocol had not improved. My initial conversation with the employee had been quite pleasant. The co-owner ruined our entire dining experience. NEVER touch a customer, especially from behind when you re not visible. She obviously wanted to create an altercation before we left the restaurant. Should report her behaviour to the police . Have lived in Guelph for almost 20 years, and will NEVER return. Many other diners to choose from for our brunches!
Every time Ive been to Angels Diner, its always been great food and service. Its worth a try
Great old 60 atmosphere, ok food, great service.
A really fun and tastefully decorated location. We went for a late breakfast and thoroughly enjoyed our food. The service was friendly and quick.
Been going to Angels for over 35 years. Always good food, and great and friendly service !
Tried to get your menu online, but there is a QR code. How can I scan a QR code on my phone [on my screen] without another cell phone? Too complicated. Regardless, I went to meet people at your restaurant for breakfast. $8 for a begal? No healthy options either. Sigh
I almost always enjoy an all day breakfast place. Many places dont know how to cook eggs just the way I like them, basted hard, which I can accept because it may be an uncommon way to order them. So when my server said it would be no problem to have them that way I was excited. Sadly things did not turn out that way. I dont exactly know whether it was a misunderstanding by the server, between the server and the cooks, or with the cooks themselves, but basically I got runny sunny side up eggs instead of basted hard eggs. Now this of course is a classic first world problem, but it was my first time dining there. The addage you dont get a second chance at first impressions comes to mind. And $30 for breakfast (including 10% tip, usually 20%) when I didnt get what I wanted makes me think twice (and yes I let the server know of the situation). Will I go back, maybe... even most likely at some point, but when??? Parking: It is a busy parking area at a strip mall.
Food was good, service was quick and the prices were reasonable. Had a decent selection of food to choose from. I had the all day breakfast.
Lots of memories here...my mom loved going to Angels Diner in Guelph and we went many times together
Spaghetti with Montreal smoked meat on top is my go to, I got it by accident the first time and Im glad I did because it is awesome!
Best for all family to eat as all together enjoying the family and having a great time
My sister and I had the most wonderful experience. The service was phenomenal, and the food was so yummy in our tummies for a great price! Vegetarian options: I had a delicious vegetarian omelet!
Food was not very hot. The service was fantastic.
Long-standing family-run restaurant, offering generous portions at reasonable prices. Great value served up by the same operators for three decades.
Our server Sarah was excellent, friendly and very attentive. Food was great (as usual) and the music playing during our dinner was very enjoyable. Thanks so much
Music was good to go along with the era decor and not too loud. Good food, nice and cool inside on a scorcher of a day
I attended for lunch with my son and husband. Our server was outstanding. However the food left a lot to be desired. My husband had the spaghetti. It was dry and tasted rather bland. My son had a club sandwich which he said was fine. However I had the meatloaf with fries and veggies. I only ate the fries. The meatloaf was dry hard and awful. My husband tried it and he agreed. My son took it home for lunch for the next day. After he had it for lunch the next day he was sick for two days after. The Greek salad I shared with my son was alright however it needed a bit more lettuce. The best part of my meal was the rice pudding I had for dessert. I guess I wont go back. Thats sad because I liked the atmosphere.
I ordered a typical breakfast which was good. The only downside was our waitress over did her hospitality to the point she kept interrupting us to ask if everything was ok and do we need anything. This was overkill. I should have mentioned something but didnt as my friend goes there a lot. Please tell your staff not to constantly go to the table. If we want something we will signal for you. Not sure if Ill go back there if I visit my friend again.
Always busy, food is consistent and always good. Service is usually quick despite how busy it is.
Great food and great price. I recommend smoked meat! Great service Food
Fast service. Big selection. Tasty food. A great breakfast place.
Weve been 2 times to Angels, awesome food, and wonderful friendly service. Would highly recommend Food
Had a fantastic meal here at angels diner! Steak with a side of rice and fries was delicious! Tasted good and was cooked as I asked. My girlfriend tired the pizzaghetti which is a large portion of spaghetti with a generous slices of pizza on either side. It was also quite good! Definitely recommend!
I usually have been going to symposium for brunch but was surprised Angels is much better. The portion size is bigger and the meal me and mom got today was 5/5. Would recommend.
Always get Angels for work events and they never disappoint. Ventured to try something different from my usual order and got this stunner of a meal. Absolutely amazing. 5/5.
Awesome place Friendly associates Food
The decor is obviously the best part of this restaurant, along with the very friendly staff. The food is good, exactly what you d expect from a novelty restaurant/diner. Vegetarian options: a good selection of vegetarian options but not vegan friendly to my knowledge.
Service was fast and friendly. Food was amazing and great servings. Found it a little too noisy but overall a great place to eat.
always a treat
Great food and service and reasonable prices. Parking: Parked out front. Food : 5/5 |
The waitress suggested the Steak, it was all gristly meat! Wont be coming back!
This place gives that Old school diner vibe. The food is amazing. The quantiy is huge.
Always love the service and the food.
Out on the motorcycle Had the rumbles in my tummy Stopped at this old school dinner Lets say the all day breakfast was outstanding. The hotels was polite The waitress was so accomplished in her job Made this whole experience great Such a change from the GTA restaurants. The food was very very good and great portion sizes and the price is on point Thank you again Really wish we knew our waitress name She rides a motorcycle too Kodos
This was our first visit. The staff were very friendly and efficient and very understanding with our adult Autistic son. Our son was very well behaved and no doubt it was the efficiency, the food was great, and the staff were very personable. We will definitely go back.
Always great breakfast. Go to meals Angels Salad and Turkey club. So good
Very disappointed with the take out food, when I got home I did not expect that Greek salad turned to be garden salad and tatziki sauce is a sour cream, rice was uncooked either. Never ever comeback again and order. I will never recommend this place ever again.
Great space with the totally retro vibe. I feel the food could be improved though, I had the turkey dinner.
I love the place, the service, the food, the price, everything is so nice, clean and delicious .
Took my son out for a special Mom/Son breakkie to Angels Diner. I was happy to see its been updated inside since I was last there. It was my sons first time - he loved it and hasnt stopped talking about it. Our waitress, Stephanie went above and beyond for us. Food was good - pretty typical diner fare. Well definitely be back! Dietary restrictions: I was pleased that they had gluten-free bread as an option. Be aware though that the home fries are cooked in same oil as breaded products.
Prices are high. Paid $20 for a skillet thats $16 at other Angels resaurants and it was half the size...
The food was great. The portions were generous. Seating was available. Our waiter was great as well. No complaints. I have not ever had a bad experience at an Angels Diner. I was in Guelph for an event and was excited that they had an Angels Diner as the one near me closed.
I love the retro vibe. Food is so good. 5 out of 5 would recommend Kid-friendliness: Waiters are so nice and helpful especially with kids Food : 5/5 |
The food was great. I would recommend eating there. Friendly people
KELLY IS THEE BEST SERVER AND EXTREMELY FRIENDLY! ! THANK YOU VERY MUCH KELLY! Place is great and food is amazing! Food
Great breakfast snack always
Came here with my family. The staff were very welcoming and incredibly nice. The food was perfect and the price was reasonable. I highly suggest this restaurant to anyone in the area!
Guaranteed friendly fast efficient service. A pleasant place to enjoy with family, friends and colleagues. Delicious huge menu!!
Decent food and good coffee. We go for breakfast at least once a month.Hearty platefuls wont leave you hungry. Service is usually good, but have been left waiting a couple of times. Large smoked meat is big and tasty as is their Reuben
Great service
From Waterloo & I was really craving the infamous angels Caesar salad I always had growing up at the Orangeville location!! So I make the truck to Guelph and ordered a few items for pickup and was SUPER disappointed and grossed out when I got home to find a hair in my salad :/ Tried calling the restaurant back but the phone just kept ringing (mind you it was dinner time when I tried to call so I bet they were super busy). Definitely won t be having anymore angels dinner cravings for a bit after this
Damn I love the breakfast poutine
Found it over priced for what u get. Personally I didnt enjoy meal at all
Great food , service was excellent
Been there few times and will definitely go back. Great food and service
Nice 50s style diner. Big menu with large portions. Service was good.
Friendly staff and great food.
Very clean place. Love the retro 80s style. Amazing people and service. Food almost always tastes good. Their service is quick and is always very good.
Classic Diner experience with a great array of breakfast options for an affordable price. Also, a pleasant spot for lunch or dinner, alone or with friends and family.
Great service,efficient, welcoming and fast. Food was what I ordered and delicious
Great menu
Great food, good portions, quick service, and decent prices. Family favourite for over 10 years. Kid-friendliness: Good kids menu options at a reasonable price.
NO DOGS ALLOWED! Since when has this become the new normal? I saw a woman walk in with her dog into the restaurant, be seated at the table and have a meal. Not even a service dog! Why?
our regular go to place.
Our go to stop for a meal each time we come to Guelph! The food has not let us down once and we ve tried breakfast/lunch/dinner. Even when they are super busy, the wait is never too long.
Our server was absolutely lovely and the food was good value
Best value is for seniors 60+! Coffee, soup, two sides, and huge tasty portions. Our go to is the Montreal smoked meat and rueben sandwichs. My oldie father loves the 60s music and decorations. Plenty of parking, wonderful service, and a nice spot for lunch.
Our family of 9 took my wife out for a birthday dinner last night to angels here in guelph from the reservation to the serving staff the whole experience was terrific. Everyone was super friendly they made our dinning out a great evening. So if you want a place qere the food is great and so is the service head over to angels for a breakfast. Lunch or dinner.You wont be disappointed. Thanks to everyone for the terrific time.
Delicious ruben and friendly staff.
Way overpriced. Food quality has really declined. Staff is fantastic as usual but prices are insane
Food was very good love the ambiance and the 50s style vibe
Love their ribs!
Excellent food friendly staff fast service
A very nice and reminder of history of Classic dinners. Good food and surly good vibes. Lots of option in menu and priced well.
Very lovely place for a fairly priced breakfast.
Old style diner, solid menu, attentive staff. Arrived during a snowfall in the area, but the staff was enthusiastic despite the weather and low attendance. Good is spot on, and not greasy. Crisp fries, hearty soup, fresh salad. The club sandwich is a winner, as is the salmon salad. Dessert was a treat, good variety. Vegetarian options: Ask the server, they are accomodating Dietary restrictions: Ask the server Parking: Lots of room. Wheelchair accessibility: Easy in and out.
Great food and good service
Everything is great here! Would of given a 5 but the sweeping during eating is a definite NO Food
Food was good (had Angel clubhouse sandwich and liver and onions with vegetables), service was good (person who sat us, person who took our order, person we paid when left), everyone was friendly.
Food was great and service was fast, friendly and attentive. Keep up the great work.
Coffee tasted watered down. Western sandwich was served with no butter on the toast...dry and unappetizing. I left the toast and just ate the omelette. I left the coffee and complained about both. You would think they would take something off the bill considering I left the food half uneaten, but they did not! I will not be returning, and it is NOT RECOMMENDED!
Delicious food and excellent service. Well worth it!!
Yummy
I love Angels. Its like being in a different era. Love all the pics of Elvis, Marilyn Munroe, and many other great stars. Seniors menu is well worth the money. I had a chicken salad sandwich. It came with 2 sides, soup and coffee or tea. Was great value and delicious!
I love breakfast and it is always a great breakfast and experience. One of my go toos
Great food and music. Hit up this place on a recent visit to Guelph and despite not being the usual customer profile (am Asian and 2 generations younger than the usual crowd), I was made to feel very welcome.
The food was incredible it came out warm and looking delicious. The service was fantastic our waitress Diana was so nice and made sure everything was up to our standards :) I would highly recommend This place for breakfast
Chicken wraps were amazing!! Great atmosphere as well.
Good food and service
3 layer Chocolate cake was hands down a must
Fantastic, I havent been here in a while, but everything was excellent. Service was fairly quick. Will make this a more frequent stop! Service was a little hit and miss as I think there were a bit understaffed and the servers were handling a ton of tables. Really happy here though, A++ Vegetarian options: Many menu options are available. HUGE menu! Dietary restrictions: Many menu options are available. HUGE menu! Parking: Plenty available in all connected plaza areas. Kid-friendliness: Very kid and family friendly. Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible parking and building.
Great food. Fair prices. Friendly staff.
Great food and service, a must try spot!
Very nice place. Will return
I hate the taste of food and it was so expensive. Even there was not a lot of people but still the service was so weak , we had to wait for 15 min then they come to take our order shortly i just didnt like the place at all
Angels is always a favourite. Staff are friendly, service is fast, portions generous and priced for families. Kids are welcome and ours always get a kick out of the decor.
The meal & service were very nice. The part that disappointed me was my friend was celebrating her birthday & there was nothing brought as a complimentary gesture on behalf of Angels. It doesnt have to be a candle & sing song but a piece of cake or a chocolate would have made it a kind gesture on this special occasion. We are all seniors & as I looked around you had many seniors dining. Seniors have time to eat out - it may be a good time to pay attention to them & spoil them even if its just a birthday
My wife and I went to Angel s to support a local business instead of a larger chain for lunch. We were so impressed with the freshness and quality of food, the service and the restaurant itself! It was clean, the staff were super friendly and the food delicious. 100% would recommend and visit!
Service was god but the food was tasteless and toast made of stale bread. Left most of my order . But, the server was very friendly and good
Great retro place with a huge menu and excellent food at great prices. Highly recommend!
Wonderful breakfast . Kid-friendliness: Can welcome a family affair Food : 5/5 |
Service was great, sandwich was mediocre Parking: Too busy, not enough parking spots for this plaza Food : 2/5 |
Awesome food. Great atmosphere
Loved the decor. The staff are super friendly and nice. Food was good. Try the coconut pie.
Great meal and Fantastic service from our server Carmen. She was very pleasant and attentive to our needs.
Ive been here at least half a dozen times, and Ive been happy with everything, every time. The most recent time I went was really busy and we didnt even have to wait long for our food. Our server was super nice.
The menu was extensive with lots of exciting options. Theres no drink menu but if you ask theyll make you cocktails. The servers were really nice but the cutlery and flatware are a bit worn and wont be ideal if youre fussy over things like that. However, the charm of the place is in its comfy, vintage style and huge homemade tasting meals. Ill definitely visit again.
Great food with large portions. Great place for a family night out.
Great spot for food, with amazing service. Vegetarian options: Amazing menu with dozens of options. Parking: Maybe 100 spots split between 15 stores. Tight parking lot. Wheelchair accessibility: Great wheelchair access to the front door, but tight walkways inside the establishment.
Always excellent food and service!
Friendly and food fantastic.
Nice staff, Yummy food, great environment. We were many friends join together for dinner there, and they handled perfect with amazing service!
Cant beat the breakfasts. Great service and plenty of coffee fill ups
Great place!!
