34 Princess St, Kingston, ON K7L 1A4, Canada
Casual breakfast & lunch cafe preparing American & Greek standards like omelets, burgers & kebabs.
Went here with my party of 4 for breakfast, 3 of us had the same dish (cinnabon french toast or something along those lines) and 1 had a traditional breakfast. service was good but after the meal we all were sick for the next couple of hours. idk if it was exactly food, water, or utensils but it was definitely terrible.
Had breakfast #2 and it was absolutely delicious! Staff is very nice. Really good quality food, their over easy eggs are now my favorite! And bacon was great
DO NOT COME!! Not sure if this is Kingston style pancake. Too hard core for me. We asked for a replacement and we got three mini pancakes that served cold in a dirty plate. (There are bacon and egg leftover under the mini pancakes) you gotta be kidding me!! Please save your day by avoiding this place.
How this place got over 1 star is shocking to me. The second i walked in i saw an old miserable looking man sitting there staring at everyone.. He was the owner... I guess he finally tried his food. My god this was bad. The potatoes which i had with breakfast smelt foul and had no taste. $3.50 to add an egg to my order .....how do you justify this? Bathrooms are dirty, go elsewhere.
I lived in Kingston for 6 years and never tried Peter's Place in that time…what a shame!! This place has a classic, greasy-spoon breakfast if you're looking for something cheap, easy and very comfortable. We ordered, ate and paid within 45 minutes (on a holiday Monday) and loved the service and friendly vibe of the place. Mimi was such a kind and quick server; she was amazing! They're clever having cake and desserts displayed…I walked out with 2 peanut butter balls and they were scrumptious. Breakfast was also so yummy!
Nice menu, little pricey but breakfast was good! I would go back again.
Great consistent brunch spot. My go-to place in the mornings if I am eating out. The house fries are a must-try. The food always comes out so fast, however the service quality from the waitresses vary depending on the company I show up with. E.g. when I came with an elderly group, our orders were taken right way and we were served very efficiently. However, when I showed up with younger folk, our orders were taken after two groups that came in before us were checked in on and served.
Food was good, service was quick, cost was relatively reasonable. Overall a really good restaurant but nothing wowed us. Would come back again.
The breakfast potatoes are the best this >50 year old gal has ever had. Will definitely be back. Beautiful space. Good service.
First time visiting Kingston. Stopped here for breakfast. Absolutely great service and amazing food!
Stopped in for breakfast this morning and the hostess said to sit anywhere. The staff was friendly, the food was great. 09/26/24. Stopped in again and had the same great service.
Lunch really not great; low end. No lattes. Next time Ill pass.
Best old school breakfast in Kingston!
Really good food!
Quick and friendly service
Homemade and very good. Very friendly and attentive staff
Delicious and inexpensive
Cant go wrong with their eggs n benny
Great breakfast with good portions!
Thanks for the eggs Peter
Standard Greek cuisine. I had a Moussaka because I love it. But there, she wasnt great. Way too much béchamel.
Sometimes a long wait to get in since they are busy. Esp on weekends if you don t come early. But service is great once seated. Food is great and comes out quick. Go to for me and my parents when they are visiting me in Kingston!
Just all in all really love the place love the food very friendly people
The food was really good service was pretty good too but it was outside that was the problem. There were several wasp traps and wasps swarming my food I couldn t even eat in peace, I tried eating the food but the wasps were just too much.
Great delicious breakfast at a good price. Very friendly staff, excellent Coffee. OPA !
Food was already made and just heated up for our order. Such a waste of time and money.
Decent homestyle omlete. Great Service.
Great club house and the staff were friendly.
Breakfast was ok service was poor
Its crazy how much they charge for the food they serve. They even upcharge their prices on apps by 30% which so so scummy
Great breakfast and service. Highly recommend
Get breakfast and portions
Nice little restaurant, good for getting a classic breakfast. Always friendly people working here.
Best diner in Kingston for a no nonsense breakfast. I hope they never change a thing.
First time going to Peters Place and I really enjoyed my experience. Welcoming atmosphere and you can choose between booths and tables. We were in a big group and the staff was able to accommodate us pretty quickly. Both beverages and food were at the right temperature and everything tasted good. Portion size is more than fair for the price and they have a nice variety of breakfast options that you can choose from. I definitely want to return more times to try more dishes.
Great breakfast place. Parking can be difficult.
Ordered sunny side up, and it wasnt cooked.
Does not serve waffles .great eggs Benny.
In and out under 45 minutes, perfect for a quick breakfast. Good service, yummy food, would definitely return again
Pretty expensive for what it is, simple breakfast for two was $50+ but its right downtown kingston so its probably part for the course
Terrific staff that are pleasant and welcoming. The great service is long-standing feature of the customer service. A diner that is reminiscent of days before franchises flooded the culinary landscape.
Excellent attention, portions and prices
Quick friendly service, a decent amount of food, and average prices for a breakfast.
Will not retrurn. Home fries we cold and the food was overpriced.
2nd best tzatziki in city after Grecos. Good breakfasts, best BLT on rye in town. Food : 4/5
Ordered the chicken sandwich which was a big mistake. $17 for their chicken sandwhich which was just a thin piece of chicken. I over looked the fact it came with mayonnaise. I should have refused the sandwhich. All you get is the sandwhich for $17. Fry s cost an extra $4.50 so for around $21.50 big rip off.. Our waitress on Saturday was friendly so for that reason 3 stars instead of 2
Perfect place for a simple breakfast. Quick service and fair prices. It was great to find this nice breakfast place open at 8 a.m. on Easter Sunday. We were in an Airbnb and didnt want to bring food or go shopping so this was perfect for early risers. Parking: Municipal parking lot close by as well as street parking. Downtown Kingston can be busy so dont expect to park for free. It all depends on when you need it.
We had the chicken wrap and the gyro wrap. The chicken wrap was the best I have ever had.
Peters place is where all the kids go to get down to the rock music
Foods good, and is very welcoming plus the expansion looks great and provides more space, Ive had breakfast and lunch here many times Vegetarian options: Veggie pita with fries, home fries have chicken broth and we were let know ahead of the order going in. Dietary restrictions: Our server seemed to know stuff for vegan and vegetarian options.
Top notch! If you are looking for that morning-breakfast-diner-vibe, then come here. Great food, great prices, great environment!
Delicious lunch!
Great little Greek restaurant serving up delicious eats!
Really nice place, And the food is so good
Always 5 stars. Great place for an in and out breakfast. Always busy but a small simple breakfast menu keeps the tables rotating and Ive never had to wait. Value, taste and service are highlights here.
Pretty good. Beats Tommys prices. Food
Roast beef was dry on hot roast beef sandwich
Great service. Fantastic food!
Simple home-style breakfast. We shared the traditional breakfast and the turkey club. Both were good and came out quickly. The staff was very nice. Price was fair, we would come back.
Awesome breakfast!!
Standard diner fare, cant go wrong with this place.
I love this place great people and food
Eggs Benny was crazy good. Also cheaper than most breakfast/ brunch places in Kingston. My hubby had the BLT w fries and loved the sandwhich but the side of fries was a v large and slightly expensive portion so we had to take some home, which is fine. Nice staff and pretty clean, will likely come again!
Too expensive for us. We sat outside on a very nice sunny day.
This used to be a little hole-in-the-wall plave but they have expanded. Food was excellent and service was great!
Went for breakfast...run of the mill, nothing that sets them apart from others. Lunch and dinner menu look good tho, so we will be back Food
Nice and friendly staffs. Food quality is average and the portion is very small for what you pay. $15 for a simple grilled cheese and a pickle, thats too much!
Left a tip at the table, then was asked at the cash by an elderly gentleman.... NO TIP???? I said I left it at the table.... I wasnt impressed...
Cozy and low key chill. Very good food and service!
Great food, friendly service, had breakfast there, will go again.
One of the best breakfasts I have had in a long time. This place is a staple downtown Kingston.
Food still the same quality, prices through the roof.
Meal way too expensive for the quality. Disgusting lunch, egg browned by the dirty plate, potatoes in disparate pieces. The appearance of the plate was really not appealing.
Food is pretty standard for a breakfast diner. Prices are okay, but they could be 1-2$ cheaper compared to the quality other places bring for the same price. It has a nice atmosphere with plants and dividers. 3 options for seating; inside, outside, or outside under a pergola. Service was very basic. Eggs were made too soft the first time. They remade the entire plate, which was very nice as we only asked for the eggs, although the server seemed annoyed. Otherwise, it was good. The last thing to note is that home fries are not cubed and are more like sliced/shredded home fries.
Tasty food. Friendly staff Simple and yummy Food : 5/5
Great Food & Quick Service! Neighbourhood Restaurant Very Friendly Food
Stopped for breakfast. Greek omelette and eggs Benny were very good. Coffee was very good also. Excellent service! Will return again.
Went every day for breakfast during our stay. Nothing fancy but great food.
Found this little gem during our weekend stay in Kingston. Early morning breakfast to start a full day of sightseeing. Fast, friendly and delicious. Great value too! A must try
Great food, service, has all of the great things associated with an old school diner
Great atmosphere. Food was cold.
Werent offered refills or water. No coloring sheets for my boy. No childrens options for food. Didnt let us know there were onions in the homefries or offer any replacement for my son. Poor service from Stacey, and it was not busy. Besides the atmosphere being cozy, this would be the last place Id recommend for breakfast in Kingston!
A wonderful family run restaurant. Definitely give it a try.
A bit noisy. Busy place. Good food, service, and people.
Well the waitress was nice but my medium rare Steak was blue with parts of it cold, half of it I think was rotten. Not to mention my booth is directly next to a table with a divider that only blocks the tables, so I was sitting 2 inches away from a random person. Might be good for just a plane eggs breakfast .. if their hash browns weren t a potato mush
Fish and chips are some of the best Ive tasted
Old school diner. Friendly staff and good food. Highly recommend. Only open until 2pm. Fried potatoes and onions are the best weve had in Kingston.
Friendly service and decent food
A great diner close to our hotel. We had a large group and the waitresses did a great job managing. Our food arrived quickly and was good. The kids menu is not posted but they will do a kids pancake if asked.
$6.50 for a glass of chocolate milk!? $4.50 for a small side of hash browns? No thanks.
Great food, great ambience, lovely cordial staff
Great breakfast, had a traditional homestyle eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, hashbrown and toast. Everything was delicious and quick.
Would have taken a picture but it looked and smelled too good to take the time. Done now and it was as good as it seemed. Not the first time here and never disappointed. Great food, service and prices. Update several years later. Still as good. 5 stars.
This place used to decently priced, but has recently surged insanely, i understand ooerating costs have increased due to covid and minimum wage but $20 for eggs and pancakes os crazy! We walked out paying just under $8 for 1 coffee and a kids chocolate milk that was $4.00 and gone in 2 sips
I attended Peters place yesterday with my partner for a nice brunch and unfortunately it was less than subpar! We ordered the special of the day which was eggs Benny. When it was brought to the table both of our hash browns were cold. That was resolved. I ordered a small chocolate milk that I was charged $5.75 for. Which seems absolutely absurd! I guess I was charged for a large chocolate milk which should have been $5. All in all with two specials at $13 each a small chocolate milk and one coffee it cost us $39 to dine there! I followed up with the business this morning to make sure that the costs that we were charged were correct and they said they were because of inflation. I just wanted to let others know my experience. And as an FYI Peters place is/was one of my most favorite breakfast nooks in Kingston! Sadly, was very disappointed with our last experience and I guess Im going to have to look for a new one now.
Absolutely lovely. The staff are so friendly. Great cooks. Place is clean and bright. Great views of downtown.
Awesome warm and inviting..great omlette .. love it
Great breakfast, great service.
My favourite place for breakfast. Great staff, great food. My personal favourite is the Eggs Benedict.
Always good food and good service. Smilie faces and pleasant atmosphere. A great place to meet friends for breakfast.
Updated review: After three years posting my initial review (below), and I still love this place. I stopped in for breakfast this A.M. and it hasnt changed a bit. Delicious breakfast that leaves you very full, and the staff are still just as friendly and welcoming as ever. It takes me through a time trip in the mid-90s when my parents would take us out to these classic breakfast spots. Guys, if I ever win the lotto, you will never have to worry about going out of business because Id be making sure this place remains a traditional staple in Kingston. Original review: A must stop breakfast/lunch spot for anyone looking for a great downtown experience. The staff are friendly, attendant, professional, yet make you feel like youve known them for years. The atmosphere cant be matched. Get the cheese omelette and bring an appetite.
Best breakfast downtown.
A decent place for breakfast and brunch but a bit pricey.I loved their cheese omelette.Excellent service , friendly staffs.
Dont eat here. Serving staff are very, very good (thats who earned those two stars) but management is fake nice. The food is barely passable diner style - the bacon is the worst Ive ever had.
Service and food were great! Price was a bit on the high side. Breakfast for two for about $50 I think is a bit much. This was just for two coffees and two meals, no extras. In fairness, if you dont eat that much one serving can be easily split into two. Would still definitely come back next time.
Very clean restaurant. Lovely staff. Delish breakfast!
It was good
Banging pancakes
Very disappointed,was told it was the best but not so. Small portions for premium prices.food was nothing special. I would recommend to find some other restaurants that are more reasonable ..
Over priced, small portions, very expensive for what you get, search for more reasonable restaurants
Server was very friendly and polite. But the food was over priced sausages were mushy eggs over cooked small chocolate milk over 5 bucks!! To bad they use to be very good!! Will never go back!!!
Food tasted great! However, the food check is subpar we found egg shells in the eggs Benedict and was only offered a can of soda for compensation.
I have NOTHING bad to say about this restaurant. Saw a sign in the window that said they do Eggs Benedict so we HAD to try it. It was the ABSOLUTE BEST I have ever had. The service was excellent, the food was excellent, the price was great! What a great find of a clean, beautiful restaurant. Next time we are in Kingston, Ontario we plan to go EVERY DAY!!!!! AMAZING!
The staff were amazing and food was delicious, yge price was so reasonable for everything you get. We will be back every Sunday for breakfast!!!!!
Just finished a delicious meal here and was pleasantly surprised after a disappointing visit to another local popular breakfast landmark yesterday, that we ve always enjoyed in the past. Today my son and husband enjoyed yummy eggs Benny, while my daughter and I had the tasty smoked Turkey clubhouse sandwich. Both were very generous helpings, delicious and nicely presented. We sat on the cute patio which was adorned with pretty flower planters lovingly cared for by the staff. Shout out to our awesome server Cheryl who was efficient, friendly and had a nice conversation with us. If your looking for tasty breakfast/lunch fare, in a clean pleasant atmosphere, this is the place to go to in downtown Kingston!
Outstanding food selection of appetizers, main course and desserts, prompt and courteous service at this location, clean and organized, very friendly staff, great value, only issue was small portion sizes, highly recommended!
Excellent food, great staff, and they had great options for children as well. Highly recommend.
The worth and value are not dependent on how you make money for your business. Its how you manage the volume of patrons coming to your store. The waiting time and the service are essential for customers. The positive part of my visit, I did not waste my food. The scalloped potatoes were good. The management should get involved by interacting with patrons and not stand behind the cash counter. It will help.
Breakfast was pretty good but not the price. Too expensive for a basic breakfast with an orange juice for $24? They have upgraded which looks great. Sidenote owners and servers should never bad talk about their employees while customers can listen. Most likely will never go back.
Great breakfast place. They do lunches too but we only had breakfast on both mornings we were in Kingston. Reasonable prices and good food in a friendly place. Can eat inside or out. Just a short walk from the Holiday inn on Princess Street.
Food was good Service very good Very nice patio
Fantastic breakfast , exactly what we ordered. Dawson is a great server. Highly recommended!
Very friendly and warm atmosphere. Great Breakfast.
Prices have gone up to the point that I will not be returning.
Amazing place for breakfast or brunch! Very clean, food was so delicious and the service was super friendly and fast. Definitely will be going back when visiting Kingston!
Mainly all the breakfast items had eggs so if you dont like or are allergic to eggs i recommend coming for lunch it was stupendous and the service was great food came in less than 25 mins
These two chunks of Spanakopita was $14 dollars...
Good breakfast, love the potatoes. Friendly service
Do not order through Uber eats Idk why but they charge 17$ for a sandwich that has two pieces of bread, one egg and two pieces of bacon when they claim to have a breakfast deal that has bread, egg, potatoes and bacon for the same price. I only say claim because I ordered the one egg breakfast thinking I would get more food and save money but they forgot my bacon. I called and she said we don t have people to just deliver bacon so idk what you want me to do worst customer service and idk how you charge someone 20$ for a meal and forget the mail contributor to that price. Also noticed they don t even have an option to select bacon or sausage so if they are relying on order notes to make orders and they can t even follow they ones theyve made them self that s really lazy service I do not wanna waste my money on. 20-30$ range cause I was charged for delivery to drop off an egg.
First time at this popular Kingston eatery. Was visiting from our of town. Met up with my son and ordered breakfast and coffee. Wonderful service. Seated immediately. Food was great. Good coffee as well. Would love to return.
Perfectly fine breakfast place with a Greek twist. Always enjoy going, nothing super special but it s exactly what you d expect.
Fabulous breakfast. Good portions. Fast and friendly service. Not overly expensive.
Good breakfast spot. Limited menu but service was fast food was good.
Breakfast was good and service fast and friendly
Solid diner with friendly efficient service and quality food.
Great food and service! A bit on the pricey side for breakfast but overall a great place!
Great breakfast and service!
Great breakfast and service. Always look forward to stopping there.
Breakfast was tasty, however portions were very small for the price. Nothing disappoints more than spending good money and leaving hungry. Also $4 +tax for a small glass of juice that they label large isnt cool either.
Bigger than it used to he but still a great value place.
Nice and cozy place. Friendly waitress. Fast service. Delicious food.
I usually love the place inside. My experience was outside today. Both were pleasant but l prefer inside.
Breakfast was well done ate every bit
Great food, fast and friendly service. Ordered breakfast this morning and it arrived at the table before I took a sip of coffee.
First time there food was good
4 of us enjoyed our breakfast. We all rated it 5 star. It was delicious. We all loved the coffee and the service was next to none and it was also very clean.
If you come here make sure to ask for salt because their home fries will not have any. We had to send our eggs back because they were very runny. I usually have to ask for eggs to be runny but in this place this is the norm. Also the portions are small for the price. Save your coin and instead go across to Pan Chancho much better deal over there.
Well lit, beautiful decor, and they make the perfect Saturday morning breakfast. The dining area has a very open feeling and the service is prompt and accurate. Portion sizes are more than enough to fill you up and my kids couldnt get enough of the pancakes. Highly recommend this place to anybody!
Best!!
Very average! This place is nothing to write home about. The portions are small especially for what you pay. I dont think bacon strips could be sliced any thinner. Almost transparent. $32 for two and we werent even full. On the bright side, our server was great!!
Good breakfast place to hit when staying in Kingston by the water
Clean, but lots of wasps and flies. Good grub. A little bit pricey for the menu, but Id still return.
Probably the best Breakfast in Kingston, very well priced and if I could stop in Friday for the eggs benny special I would. Support local business!
My food was unsatisfactory but the friends I was dining with were very pleased with their choices. The service was excellent and the atmosphere is pleasant.
Simple, fast, friendly just what you need from the local breakfast spot. Highly reccomend
First time at this place. Had the gyro sandwich with fries. Very good sandwich,fries were hot and crisp. Service was excellent.
Very fast service,good food plus friendly staff
Great dinner. Staff ensure our safety while serving us. If I lived in Kingston, would be a regular patron at this location.
Excellent food and friendly staff Great time
nothing special. Quantity lacking. Not how I remember. No spiced flavors.
Great spot for breakfast. Good food, excellent service, reasonable prices.
No wait food was fast and service was good.
Have been going to Peters place for years now before renovations etc when it was the size of a big bathroom lol but always loved food and staff etc they have certainly came along way and I highly recommend all there baked goods you wont be disappointed..
Prices have gone up quite a bit in recent years and quality isnt where it used to be. Not a bad breakfast but not my favourite hole in the wall that it used to be.
Breakfast was good! They also make a good french toast. Coffee is solid
The greek food here is fabulous, and the coffee is pretty good too. I probably wont be ordering the hashbrowns again though.
I recommend, French service, pleasant meal, rye bread available, I loved it. Im going back next, its on my checklist of things to do again!!
Fast, & great food!
Awesome food. Never had a gyro omelette but it was very savory. The waitress was very attentive. Fast service - whole experience was less than an hour. Get a 5 star by turning the music down a bit. Hard to hear with masks on as well as music.
Great selection and services
Awesome place to eat and great service
One of my fav places for brekkie. After the renovations, the place is double the size, so its faster to get in.
Very Nice service. Good food
