20 Hartzel Rd, St. Catharines, ON L2P 1M3, Canada
We are a family run restaurant which opened in 2003!! Breakfast, Lunch and Takeout options Fish and Chips on Fridays!
The family is always friendly and a pleasure to interact with. They do an amazing job of making my wife and I feel special by knowing what we want without having to tell them every time we visit. Thank you for the amazing experience! 😁
First and most importantly the food was very tasty and priced well. You can tell that due to it being a smaller business it took a bit of a hit during the pandemic and it doesn't seem they've fully recovered which you can see displayed from the still remaining Plexiglass, to the chalkboard still showing the once was mandates, to the shirts asking customers to social distance. Overall this diner definitely deserves any and all praise despite the slightly outdated interior. If you find yourself looking for a nice breakfast this is definitely the right place to start.
Extremely filling, absolutely delicious, best breakfast. I love that the home fries s are origina real potatoes real crispy but soft and well seasoned big slice of ham bacon and eggs cooked perfectly, Definitely recommend you go try had a great experience left with a full belly happy taste buds highly recommend you go try you will not be disappointed. Thank you we will be returning.
Food wasn’t great, what kind of omelette does not come with cheese? Service wasn’t good coffee or tea wasn’t re filled throughout the whole meal. Lady asked if we wanted more after we paid. Would not recommend
Amazing homemade food! Friendly service and extremely clean! Prices are very reasonable. Best kept secret breakfast spot in st. Catharines. Grilled cheese with bacon and pickles is off the charts amazing!
The service provided was of exceptional quality, and the food was delicious. The seating arrangements were comfortable, and the restaurant was impeccably clean. The pricing is reasonable.
So... I'm nervous. I want to rave about how good this little diner is... About how much it reminds me of the little cafe my dad and his 2nd wife owned in my childhood. The only thing missing is a cocktail arcade table with centipede and missile command... My problem is... I still want to be able to get a table here. Lol. In all honesty, I love the food. The staff are great.
Visiting a diner is a great way to start any day. We're so glad that we chose to visit Opa & Oma's. In spite of inflation they've obviously strived to maintain reasonable prices and generous portions. Great first impression to be greeted with an immediate offer of coffee. And good coffee at that. I had the "Egg Thingy" with home fries. Oh my the home fries alone are worth a trip. Delicious seasoning! Very friendly, cheerful staff who were quick with the coffee refills.
Wasnt the Dutch variety but great nonetheless.
Family-owned diner that has everything from club sandwiches to pierogies. Generous portions and delicious selections
Good intention Good food
Solid breakfast joint!
Eggs Benedict are excellent.
Parking: Strip mall parking Food
The fish and chips are delicious. As far as I am concerned, the fish and chips are the best Ive had in St. Catharines.
Easiest 5 star review. Lovely little Diner
Excellent all day breakfast, great service and prices
Great fish and chops good breakfast
Fantastic food! Just like Opa used to make! Thursdays Fish and Chips is by far better than anyone s!
Your typical old school diner. Had the big breakfast. Cant go wrong...and real home fries, none of those deep fried cubes. My wife had the chicken souflaki...which was a big Greek salad covering a pita, with a skewer of chicken on top. Dressing on the side. Huge.
Great food but in need of updating and cleaning.
Bacon is really salty but otherwise place is good.
Love this place. Always our go-to for family breakfast.
This place is amazing. My family has been going here since I was little. We travel to the area from Sault Ste. Marie every 6 weeks, and my husband and I love the food so much that he tells me he cant wait to eat here every time we leave! We always get the traditional breakfast, and its always perfect. Coffee is one of my fav cups of coffee. Kiddos loved the pancakes, burgers, and hot chocolate. Definitely a family favorite of ours for sure!
One of our regular spots. Comfortable, comforting food. Its a dependably good, family-owned, family-run diner.
Happy with service very fair pricing
Very good people running it. Good atmosphere felt very comfortable. Can get quite busy, but I drive from Beamsville all the way there just to have a breakfast.
Delish food. Nice lil diner. Came for Breakfast, food and service were fantastic.
Portions of home fries could be more as the portion is small like 10 small pieces
Been going to opas and omas since it was in Niagara Falls . Still a fantastic place for breakfast..I always get the standard breakfast but all the food looks great and the service is always fast and pleasant
Whoever took over has made to many changes meaning less food . Order a Ruben it had less then 3 slices of Corn beef hardly any cheese only tasted Sauerkraut as it was replaced by the Cornbeef, friend had chicken fingers and said they were terrible. Will not return Food
Came here for lunch with my friends and I had the rueban sandwich.. It was the best rueban Ive ever had.. Perfect portion and the fries were also amazing. The prices are also very affordable and the staff are amazing! Thank you Opa and Omas Diner.. Ill be back!
Excellent good. Great servers. Super friendly place!
I went here with my mom for breakfast and it was amazing. Food was delicious and the service was fantastic!
Found this gem of a spot for breakfast, and it was great. The potatoes had some really nice seasoning on it. Saw someone order the schnitzel as I was leaving, and I have been back many of times now to get it myself. Only wish that they were on skip or Doordash or Uber eats.
Our meal was delicious, service was great and very friendly! Will go back again!
I was looking for a good schnitzel meal. Unfortunately this is not the place to get that. The schnitzel was overcooked and dry. No flavour. No sauerkraut. Served with purple cabbage which did not have a favourable taste.
Clean great food very reasonable
A decent diner. They have schnitzels, which is cool. Small place, but quick service. One of the better breakfast options.
Friendly. Clean. Good prices. Dietary restrictions: Willing to make substitutions from the menu. Food : 5/5 |
absolutely perfect place to be for either breakfast/lunch. They treat u like family Food
A friend and I each had an omelette. We enjoyed the food and the service. I hope to be back again.
Awesome Prices , Awesome Customer Service and Food was Very good , Highly Recommended
fast service and breakfast was fine.
I hate there home fries there hard as rocks just not good. My bacon was burnt to a crisp i dont understand why they would serve it like that it wasnt edible for how burnt it was. It took very long before I got refill on my drink definitely not my favorite.
Good price, good service Great breakfast joint
The cabbage soup is amazing! Staff is friendly & attentive. A great place for a traditional breakfast and lunch
Excellent food and prices! So glad we stumbled upon this place
Blonde waitress very poor Costumer service . Not impressed at all ... I wouldn t recommend this place. dirty place tables are always sticky and dirty . Blonde waitress doesn t care only about her tips . This fish and chips is why I came here but honestly any place can cook frozen fish and fries lol
He used to be great place for breakfast, since granddaughters took over place just fell apart I dont think they want to work, they cannot wait to close the door and go home.
Good & Simple diner. Quick service.
Awsome food like always. Great customer service.
Great portions and always delicious and great value
Great food great service and cant beat the price
Absolutely love this little gem. Especially the cabbage soup
Never been to this place before, went in and sat down took about 10 minutes before we were acknowledged and then asked what we wanted for drinks. She brought our drinks over a few minutes later and asked if we were ready to order, we said we dint get a menu. The waitress (if thats what you wanna call her) told us to get up and look on the wall for the menu. So we looked at it and then sat back down. About 5 minutes later a group of people came in and sat at the table beside us, the waitress came over quickly to get their drink orders, and was just as quick to bring their drinks back, walking past us both times. When she brought the drinks she asked if they were ready to order, they said yes. She took their order, and I said were ready to order too, she looked at me and walked right completely ignoring us. We ended up getting up and walking out the door, to find a MUCH BETTER place. I read a few reviews after and see that the girls running it are pretty much running it into the ground after taking it over from their family. AVOID THIS PLACE
Friendly place to go great atmosphere!! Will go again
I normally have only got fish and chips from opa & Omas. The fish is very big pieces and generous amount of fries. Havent had a negative thing from the quality of food. Definitely worth trying the fish fry.
Great Food and a friendly staff! Heavenly atmosphere! Saved my soul!
This place was a blessing from the lord. I had the devil in me and this was exactly what I needed.
The bacon in this place cleansed my soul and the coffee cleansed my bowels. The lord guided me to this spot and it did not disappoint. The demons are out of me after this heavenly experience. Can t wait to head back!
I enjoy the food & the atmosphere. Very friendly. My friend and I are there every week. Fish & chips on Friday, is very tasty. So is everything else.
Awesome food!! And excellent staff!
This used to be the place to go. It is less than its glory days now. I might go here in a pinch, but there are other places 8 would go instead. The food was not too flavourful
Service is great :) noticed the portions have been smaller however but tastes great. Last time we were there the tables and chairs seemed pretty dirty and sticky which was the only downfall.
Just class. Special recommendation is hereby
Awesome place. Great food great people.
Great place and good breakfast
Got blt and fries but they forgot the fries so I had to go ask about. Other than that it was good.
I would give this restaurant 10 Stars great food great people great employees
Great friendly service. Food was excellent.
Great Schnitzel. Reasonable priced. They close early though.
Very good food. And very friendly people. We can only recommend this.
Ordered rare to med rare steak needles to say it was well done and what ever spices are put on it drowns any flavor never again..it sure has gone down hill since it changed owners
They have a pretty good breakfast there. Ive never had anything else there besides that. The service is ok as well. Its one of the best breakfast deals in the city for the money.
Good breakfast and fare prices
I love this place. Nothing fancy. Great food and fantastic staff!
Delicious fish and chips that arent too greasy. Even the coleslaw was decent! Finding a place with good fish, fries, tartar sauce and coleslaw is rare, and Opa & Omas definitely checks all the boxes!
Good place for an inexpensive meal.
Great fish and chips
We came across this place by pure chance and I have to say that Im extremely glad we did. The food was fantastic, as were the portion sizes. Prices are very reasonable. This is a hidden gem for sure. We will be back!
Service and food excellent as always,excellent prices. Never disappointed!!!!!
Great breakfast for less that 7 bucks
The food quality was tasty but the portion size on your potatos was so small. Could definitely have more potatos in my opinion but other wise, its a good breakfast.
Good food and reasonable prices !
This has to be one of the best breakfast places in town. Very family style with wonderful staff who know how to treat their customers. Covid has brought a few changes like no condiments at the tables but they will quickly bring the little packets if you need them. Other than that its the same great food and wonderful service it has been for years.
Fish and chips are fire Only 4 star because there are no menus to look at when youre seated. Just the chalkboard at the takeout counter..
Went there for a basic bacon and eggs breakfast and was not disappointed. Portions were good. Quality was good and the service was quick and friendly. I would go back to try other offerings on the menu.
Friendly great food .
Very good food. Been there twice before and love their food. Pleasant staff too.
Russell is the best server in the world anytime i go there i ask for him and he makes me leave with an amazing experience every time. The breakfast special is the way to go OUT OF THIS WORLD.
Really good food, friendly staff
Great food and even better prices. Lots of choice for all 3 meals of the day.
Great place for a quick breakfast or lunch.

We used to come here and it was great but this time our food was extra salty and the eggs were not cooked how we asked. The prices are good though and the atmosphere seems very local which is nice.

This is a great little breakfast place! Its always a favorite of mine. Food its great, its not at all very expensive, and everyone is friendly. I dont get in here nearly as often as I should, mostly because I live across town. I would definitely recommend it to anyone thats looking for a good breakfast. Check it out, if you havent!
Great place for breakfast. Such a big menu. Great family outing

Great food service was decent
Great diner for breakfast and lunch. Friendly staff.
Ive been coming here for years. Its that good! The staff is friendly, never have I had a bad experience. They dont usually serve fires with breakfast, but potatoes. Which taste way better than any other breakfast place Ive tried. They always refill your coffee so dont worry about running out. one of, if not , the best breakfast place in Niagara.
Great food and great prices. Cheapest breakfast Ive had for awhile! Service was lovely too.
Good food , cooked how we asked , fast service ,will be back for more !

Awesome breakfast (best breakfast meats Ive had in ages) Great, fast service (treats for kids after meal, service that was quick enough for a 3yo whos sole reason to exist at that moment was to consume pancakes) great pancakes (3yo approved) good coffee (weak coffee with breakfast cheeses me off)
amazing food, great food, service is second to none!!!
