Country Boy Family Restaurant in Kitchener

Great service and the breakfast was awesome! Handled a large group of us and did a fantastic job!

great big portions, delicious food

Food has been fine in the past but the service was very poor this time. Unfortunately, we ordered through Uber for family who was in town. No communication for delays to Uber or the driver. Poor driver waited 35 minutes at the restaurant because they indicated they were ready for pick up on the app. No food ever came out and Uber cancelled the order and the driver left with nothing to show for it because of a Country Boy error. We understand delays happen but the lack of respect for us and the poor pick up driver was unacceptable. Edit for reply below - we got the information from the GPS for Uber plus communicating with the driver. It was as definite proof as we could get.

Pleasant Parking: 30+ spots Wheelchair accessibility: Yes

We had a wonderful experience this morning at Country Boy! Mandy was an excellent waitress. She was friendly, attentive with prompt service. We will definitely choose Country Boy again!

Undoubtedly the best breakfast spot in Kitchener. Mandy consistently delivers exceptional service with her warm, friendly, and kind demeanor. The extensive breakfast menu features standout dishes, including the unparalleled Philly Steak Eggs Benedict. The food quality is exceptional, and the portions are well worth the reasonable prices. Highly recommended!

We love Country Boy. We have been going here for seven years now. Food is always piping hot and plenty of home fries. We always get great service from Oulia and Marina. That is what keeps bringing us back.

Really enjoyed the breakfast Denver Wrap....ingredients fresh and as described. Great service Marina. Food

Quick meal, excellent service

A great place with great food! Finally a breakfast place where the food is great and the eggs are actually hot when your food arrives! Great job, will definitely be returning when we are in Kitchener!

Been going to Country Boy for YEARS, and was always quite happy with the experience, the service and the quality/portions for price. I dont know whats changed recently, but our most recent visit might well be our last. My wife and I went in for breakfast a few weeks ago, where we both ordered tea with our meals (she had some sort of skillet, i had i think the eggs benny w peameal and a side of bacon. maybe it was the hungry boy without the pancakes. Anyway...) The server brought us one teapot with one teabag, but charged us each $3.50. When I questioned this on receiving the bill, she said that was the policy, and didnt seem at all interested in explaining it or trying to justify it. I suppose I shouldve asked for the manager at that point, but we were quite taken aback. Never mind that $3.50 for tea in a family diner is already on the somewhat outrageous side, but charging $7.00 for two diners to share one teapot and a single teabag is highway friggin robbery. Between the disgusting price gouge and the poor attitude of the server when we asked about it, it left a very bad taste in our mouths. We have no problem paying slightly increased prices over time due to food supply chain cost increases, but for some 15yr old to drop that kind of attitude on two people paying $50+ for breakfast (after tax and tip)? That aint right. Country Boy, I stood up for you when that one weirdo went off about walking out on his bill because of the change in breakfast potatoes a while back. That dude was completely out of line. Yall are the ones out of line now.

Good food and service

Excellent food with some pretty great prices. They also have some really good gluten free bread.

We had a wonderful experience at Country Boy and always do whenever we come here! Our server, Angela, was such a delight and a sweetheart, she was so quick to help us and just a treat to be around. Will definitely be coming back!

Yum! Yum! Really good breakfast!

Good breakfast. A nice stop if you re in the area.

Still the best around

Love the Eggs Benedict

Ive been eating at Country Boy for 20+ years and never had a bad experience. Unmatched consistency. A staple of the community. 5/5

Went for brunch with my partner today and ordered the Steak & Eggs, and the KW s favourite. Both were delicious. The steak ordered rare, came out perfectly cooked and seasoned which isn t always the case for breakfast spots but they nailed it! Coffee and service were great as well.

Baaaanger!!... get there early

Eggs benny was great,Paige was our friendly waitress and owner went way up and about for an issue we had with an item...10/10...can never deside between the clubhouse or the eggs benny when I go there

Another great experience, the waitress was very attentive and was very efficient with her duties. We had an issue with an item in our meal and it was swiftly rectified. If you have a good appetite, and love breakfast foods, I suggest the Lumberjack!! We definitely will be returning again

Still here

Love the eggs benedict here, and the service is friendly and fast.

Great food, great service, great price. I couldn t finish it all. I ll be back Food : 5/5

Food and service is always great. The portions are great.

Went for sunday brunch. Huge quantity of really good food.

the place is a little dated. parking is a bit of a issue. the service was great and the prices of food were not bad. food was hot and seasoned well. you get a lot for your money. if u get the skillet it is a great thing to share. Vegetarian options: lots of options Dietary restrictions: they r willing to try and help you with not including items that u cant eat. had gluten free toast and a few gluten free options

Huge portions and fast friendly service. Pancakes are big and fluffy. Angela is a great waitress!

Good service, a happy waitress, nothing to complain about

Good food, lots of seating leading to fast service and a pleasant atmosphere

Best Restaurant I have visited in Kitchener City

Phenominal experience! 100 Server Mandy was Best in Town! She was so polite, kind and quick. Very pleasant and a joy to converse with as well! We orders from the healthy options section As well are the tried and true options. I ordered my eggs over medium with no slimy whites... which many cant get right BUT Today I teared up with tears of joy that my eggs were PERFECT!!!! An EXTRA THANK YOU to the chef who made those eggs. You made my day! We will be definately coming here for breakfast as the home fries were perfection and not greasy! My husband said he would ask for crispier but that is something to ask if that is your preference. Fresh bowl of fruit was FRESH not canned! BRAVO! PLEASE NOTE There is a new menu. It hits all the visuals, a cute sense of humor, easy to follow and kept the customer favs still as options. Thanks for always keeping it fresh! Much appreciation ~Vie Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options Keto friendly options Healthy options Kid-friendliness: Kid menu

Waitress was amazing and had a lot of tables. Food was great, large portions. Best service I have had in a long time.

Excellent breakfast and very quick service! Came in off the 401, easy to get to. Im glad we detoured in as it was amazing as always! Very large portions, coffee always at your table. Left very full and back on our trip within 40 minutes!

Nice restaurant, delicious food, attentive staff .... enjoyed our meals.

Inaccessible if you are disabled. No ramp. No hand rails, No automatic doors

One of the the best breakfast youll get,, peameal bacon and home fries are the absolute best theyre not those little square taters but the real potato home fries!

delicious, good priced and a lot of food. many options for everyone

Edit Saturday 18 May 2024, second time Ive arrived that theyve closed early. Not a good sign and Ill be sure to take business elsewhere. Much better and safer place now that former owner is gone along with his son Criss (who was convicted of assault).

Wonderful place. Always a great experience. Family atmosphere, clean and inviting.

The meal came out quickly and the portions are huge. Nothing Beata breakfast at Country Boy

Paige is such a sweet person, she had amazing service 10/10 We come here from out of town because the food is so good Food : 5/5

Nice and quite booths

Service wonderful. Would definitely go back. Just not get the beef. Chicken and salads wonderful

Great food, service and price

Big servings of food and it comes out hot which I appreciate. The coffee is okay but you get a whole flask of it

We were here this past weekend for Mothers Day, it sure was busy! I have been going to Country Boy for breakfast for over 15 years, Im still impressed. It is always busy but is never a long wait. The restaurant and bathrooms are always clean and the service is always top notch. Most important, the food is consistently delicious with tons of choice. In addition, if youre drinking coffee or tea you get your own carafe to the table. Nice.

Mandy, our servor, has a great, welcoming personality! She is always smiling and very friendly to everyone at her tables. She is always very quick to respond to any request made of her at anytime after the order has been placed. Mandy also checks often to see if everything is ok or if we want something else. Because of her great personality, we always ask to be seated where Mandy is serving. Tasty Breakfast and lunch, plus portions are very big. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian omelette very good and large portions Parking: Plenty of parking + back of restaurant even more parking spots

Went for the first time in years today for breakfast ...great service ...very good food ... will be going again soon! Enjoyed the option of Polish sausage instead of bacon or breakfast sausage!

Went on Mother s day and was seated fairly quickly despite the long line. Excellent service. I enjoyed their iced coffee. The salmon eggs Benedict was okay, but I did enjoy the home fries and variety of options nonetheless.

Always forget about this place. Good portions and great value.

Best place to go for food, value & service. Love this place every weekend

Early morning but kinda claustrophobic, good service but meh, for the hash browns. Three nice pieces of peameal bacon, meh on the toast

Food took too long to arrive at the table, the quality of the food has gone down from the last time we came here. It s used to be one of our family favourites but now it s somewhat disappointing. My daughter found a hair in her crepe.

I visited this place for first time because my I just called on my shift and didnt get time for breakfast. I informed receptionist that Im vegetarian and was there any options available for veg? She attended me very warmly and politely and also helped to choose my order. I requested her that I have to rush for my work and she gave order to prepare my breakfast on fast track Breakfast was very good. Thank you

Great food and fast service, even while the restaurant was busy at the time.

Kinda fire low key

I havent been to this breakfast place in a long time. We used to come here when our kids were younger. It is more updated now. The food and service were excellent! We will visit more often!

Fantastic as usual. Good food. Great service. Highly recommended.

Country Boy Family Restaurant claims it has the best breakfast in town and I cant argue with that. The service is friendly and efficientand we enjoyed the atmosphere. The reaonably priced breakfast has large portions and was delicious!

Best breakfast restaurant in town! If you havent tried it; youre missing out! Love the food at a great price

Ordered 2 Eggs Benedict with peameal bacon menu says comes with cheese NO CHEESE ON EITHER ORDER

Drinks were good The sandwich and munchrian was awesome, but their momos were super spicy, I dont know who ate that kind of food Food

I came here with a friend on Sunday for breakfast and I was pleased with the service and the food was great also. This Diner has a cozy feel and the prices were great also.

Waitress was phenomenal

If you want to be transported to flavour town head to Country Boy asap! The bacon, omg, twas bussin! We arrived, were seated and served within 20 min. 10/10 Food

The food was incredible. There were many dishes to choose from, and prepared quickly. The staff was friendly and gave excellent service. It is a place that I will definitely go back to.

Catherine our server was great. The kitchen made a mistake on my steak however it was well handled.

This is a great, traditional breakfast place! It has lots of character, the service was pleasant and fast, and the food was amazing. I love the home fries so much, and I really enjoy the privacy of the booths!

I have been going here for breakfast since 1996 and its still the best place in town! Peggy is awesome, she greets us every Sunday at 7am with a big smile and a little chuckle.

Delighted with my experiences at Country Boy Family Restaurant! The warm and welcoming atmosphere, coupled with a diverse menu, makes it a standout dining destination. The staffs attentiveness and dedication to customer satisfaction are commendable, creating an enjoyable and family-friendly environment. I highly recommend Country Boy Family Restaurant for those seeking a delightful dining experience with a touch of hospitality that truly stands out. Vegetarian options: Veg Fried rice

This place desperately needs to learn how to clean their grill and their flat top. Got the hungry boy platter. The bacon, sausage, ham and eggs looked, for lack of a better term, quite dirty. Looks like they were all cooked with crumbs and droppings from previous meals that were made on the same grill. This made them all have a funny taste. The bacon was also overcooked, the eggs were undercooked as were the home fries. The one saving grace about this place is that the service was great. Our server was very nice, food came out fast (almost a little too fast if you ask me) Lastly, the coffee was atrocious. Syrupy piss. I had heard a rumor that this place reuses coffee that was left in customers carafe. Wouldnt surprise me if this was true.

Big menu, great breakfast, lots of seats and parking.

Best breakfast in town!!

Though the place could use a vidual spruce up, the food and service were very good, and they were able to handle our large group at short notice. They have a large breakfast menu with some vegetarian options. The vegetarian eggs beni were quite good. Thanks!

Fantastic!! Great service, delicious food.

Food quality and quantity is really worth for the cost. I haven t tried the dine in yet so not sure about that. Omelet is very fluffy and filled with sides, loved the taste.

Our family of four had breakfast here recently. The servings were very generous but only one of the four breakfasts was served hot. I had ordered smoked salmon benedict, eggs medium cooked, but they were soft and running all over my plate. My sons pancakes and waffles were barely warm. Three of us took our breakfasts home to reheat, recook. Otherwise everything was tasty. Reasonable prices, generous portions and a friendly waitress.

Seemed abit expensive

such an amazing breakfast spot! Food is great and really reasonably priced for the large portions, and the staff and service are superb! Always a favourite weekend spot for us! Parking: great sized lot with extra parking around the back left of the restaurant.

Only thing good about this place is the coffee. My food came back twice cold wasn t sending it back a 3rd time. Waitress ignore you when you have a complaint very passive no I m sorry. I stopped coming here yrs ago just for the same thing n started coming back n has been good till today well they dont get a 3rd chance im done

Okay to visit

My bank card didnt work and the manager super nice guy let me e-transfer money to pay my bill. Love the place.

One of our favourite breakfast spots. Servers are always lovely especially the wee senior lady Prices are reasonable. Food is always great and that bacon!! Its outstanding. The polish sausage is the only item Ive tried and didnt like. Food

This restaurant has the best breakfast. My sister and I got the breakfast special. I got over medium eggs bacon hashbrowns and toast. This is one of our best spots and we always ask for Sara she is the best waitress, she always gets everything we need and remembers our order. She is great we love that we found a good place and a great waitress thats kind and takes her time, you will never feel rushed with her. Place is clean and the atmosphere is great everyone is very friendly.

This home style restaurant is amazing. My sister and I always go here for breakfast and they are our favorite restaurant to go to. The service is very good I recommend asking for Sarah she is such a nice waitress, she already knows what we want to order and remembers it every single time!! She is just such a beautiful person inside and out. The food is always hot and fresh and tastes amazing. Prices are really good for the amount of food they give you. Definitely recommend this place to all ages..

My brother often takes me here when im in town. He is a good dude but he smells like old potatoes.

Consistinsey is the best word I can use for this place have been coming here for years. Fast, friendly service, and will great for large groups. The menu has all the traditional family restaurant items with a Greek twist.

Its one of the best breakfast spots in KW. If you are going on a weekend for brunch, expect a line.

I understand this is the original place....and so ....I highly recommend....I had hungry man.....14.50...way to much food... .. Food

Decent, nothing wrong but didnt wow me. Would still return

Was taken for breakfast. Had the fruit crepe. It was amazing

Good food and prices

Really good food and expert staff!

Our own room for a wedding brunch

Great food and great service.

Prices are good and staff is always nice

Specifically asked the host if it was ok to bring a tim Hortons coffee in as I bus and didnt want to throw it away to which she said it was fine. The server gave me an attitude about it and told me to not bring stuff from another restaurant there again. Seemed snobby after for the remainder of the service. I get it and wouldnt usually bring something from somewhere else but its not like it was food and would it have really made her that much happier if I ordered a free water like I typically do instead?

Service is great here. The food is exactly as you expect, nothing more or less. Great place for a family brunch. Food : 4/5

We had a nice lunch.

Always a treat!

Clean, well lit restaurant. Friendly helpful staff. Great food. Enjoyed the late breakfast option. Dietary restrictions: Appreciate the little notes within menu of gluten free alternatives.

The cook who prepares the food and the angel who serves it are experts in this field. Come see

Visited my friend in Kitchener and she insisted on this breakfast spot! Great portion sizes, presentation and our two servers Kathryn and Olia were fantastic! Highly recommend it.

Thank you simran

Literally the worst breakfast in KW, both breakfast had burnt toast, burnt bacon, burnt sausage and the home fries were so salty neither of us ate them. $40 down the drain.

Delicious breakfast. Fast and friendly service

Huge portions, busy spot, found a hair in my coleslaw. Luckily, it was on top.

This place has really stepped up its game in the last few years. It used to be not the best, but its become our go-to place for a quick breakfast out. We really love the home fries and turkey sausages. They definitely stand out compared to others, and of course the prices are very reasonable. Kid-friendliness: The staff are always great with kids.

We always eat here with my partner especially when I first arrived here in Canada back in 2018. And our experienece is always awesome. My partner just had chemotherapy couple of months ago and his taste buds are affected. He didn t like the wrap that he ordered so we asked if he could change it. The lady server (Lauren) didn t hesitate to ask their cook to make a another wrap, same as mine which I love - Spicy Chicken Club Wrap (Wednesday Special). We are just so thrilled to accommodate our request especially for my partner. Kudos to them and to Lauren. Continue to make your customers experience satisfied and amazing.

Very good food, fast service and responsibly priced!

Good place Vegetarian options: Not many but the ones available are good Food : 5/5 |

Is a great restaurant

The service is always good and fast. The serving sizes are larger than other breakfast places. I predominantly come for breakfast but all food is great. Would recommend to anyone looking for sandwiches, burgers, breakfast and more from the large menu.

Ive been going here since I was a child, and it still carries a certain charm that not many places in KW have. Food is great and the service is quick and friendly.

Busy and loud with folks filling up on good food and drink. Friendly and helpful staff. One of the best in town for decades.

Havent been in a really long time.

One of my favorite breakfast spots in Kitchener. Love the home fries.

Love this breakfast place. I enjoy the fried potatoes that come with your breakfast. They pump the food out quickly. My waitress was friendly and cheerful. One of my go to spots for breakfast.

Service was only mediocre. I saw my server once during my visit, although she was friendly. The meal wasnt 5 stars because the ham was saltier than normal including the home fries. Years ago they used delicious seasoning on their home fries, but now they cant seem to be bothered to use it. I did enjoy the bacon and sausage. Since changing owners I find the quality is not like it used to be.

Great family restaurant. They have so many options for breakfast, but also have a selection of excellent Greek food. The servers are very friendly and the food is made quickly. They have a ton of options, especially for breakfast foods. Their Souvlaki wraps are especially good. I highly recommend.

Service is always great. I totally recommend this place

Delicious food

Food would get a 5 star, but the coffee or coffee cups were pretty salty. Not just me everyone at the table wondered what was shaking. Old school vibe, old school prices. All round A1 joint

Amazing food. Best home fries I ve ever had. Great customer service & experience overall.

Good destination for breakfast.

My favourite breakfast place of all time! Vegetarian options: Amazing avocado toast with poached eggs Food : 5/5 |

We came here for the first time - delicious and quick service! Sarah was our server and she checked on us very well! Will definitely be back

Sitting guest was not in order of arrival even for same number of guest. no excuse you do this all day. Definitely not the Country Boy I spent 20 years going to. The Food and portion size still good but hit and miss with Service like most places. You can kill the experience at the end and reduce your tip making people wait for the bill too long. We where 15 minutes after plates collected.

Quick and friendly service, food was delicious

- Eggs were burnt - Toast was burnt - Unknown crunchy stuff in the wrap/became inedible at that point - Hair in the omelet - Tough to screw up breakfast, but Country Boy was very successful at it today.

Was a nice spot to eat a family breakfast sunday :)

We had a late brunch and we are stuffed! Our server was great. The coffee and tea were amazing!!

Pretty decent and good sized breakfast spot! No complaints!

The place is filthy and rundown, and the area we sat in had a weird smell. They overcooked my scrambled eggs, all the meat was greasy and just tasted like salt, home fries are just chunks of crushed potatoes. I ate 10% of the food. Probably the worst breakfast I ve had in all of Tricity breakfast places, and their prices are the highest I ve seen yet lol. Idk how you screw up breakfast this bad but won t be returning.

Good budget price

Breakfast was awesome. Service was prompt and friendly

I went with my father for breakfast, and we ve gone here for years and it has always been good, but this time we went in. They messed up my order , gave me the wrong order asked politely for my order my father got his first i Waited 35min for mine to return with no extra egg I payed for. And the peamale was made wrong they took it back and I waited another 15 min and when it came back the eggs where cold. They also charged me wrong, they charged me for the first dish I got and didnt order, it was $5 more then mine. And all they said was they where gonna take off the $2.50 coffee charge, and the waitress didn t seem to care , if we didn t say anything they wouldn t have even took the coffee off. Horrible experience, waitress didn t even listen to us and we told her 2 times, And charged us for the wrong plate.in total it took 1:13 min. Very disappointed in service and time. Just want my money back. I got the peamale, not all Canadian. Should have no stars

Have always loved this restaurant lots of options great prices and service

I always get the country boy skillet! The best breakfast skillet around

Marina is a respectful, well behaved, and quick service provider. Food was tasty.

A group of friends got together for lunch /breakfast. The food was delicious and the service by Sarah. Excellent. Everyone enjoyed their experience at Country Boy. Thank you to all the amazing staff.

Very, very nice, clean and excellent service, I recommend it

I organized a lunch time get together this past Friday. We had 24 people attend. Our waitress Sarah was very attentive to our group. Everyone ordered something different. The meals all came out together and were piping hot. We all enjoyed ourselves and the food was amazing. Thank you Country Boy!!

I had an excellent club sandwich with fries and cole slaw. Will definitely go again.
