We are now open for dine in & take-out. Tuesday - Saturday breakfast & lunch. Sunday 7-2 breakfast only. 519-633-8181
This place has what you need. Seriously though I stoped in on a fluke thought this place would be good as any ( and also because I was in need of a greasy spoon style breakfast to soak up the night before ) I ordered French toast with sausage, a side of home fries and a coffee , what came out was hot fresh and seriously delicious (probably could have gotten the small portion too as the regular was to much food). The wait staff were friendly and the the food came out fast and the place it’s self was a honest to goodness small town dinner. great vibes. Good job 👏
Yesterday my husband and I came for breakfast, we ordered coffee and we ordered a charm breakfast to share, as we are both seniors we felt there was lots of food for both of us in the one meal, we were told we were not allowed to do that, we had to order a second meal as they do not allow sharing. I simply do not understand why their POLICY forbids that. If it was a buffet we would understand. We paid for our drinks and left and will not be returning. The meals have historically been very large and in the past we end up leaving food, with things being as expensive as they are today we were trying to enjoy breakfast out while remaining frugal. So sad your POLICY is to turn paying customers away.
I just ordered a bacon cheeseburger and fries, small gravy and a pop. The total 28.10$ so much being affordable, I was billed 5.99 for 3 slices of bacon, it must of been a very expensive pig but seriously 28.10$ for a burger and fries. I am not bashing the staff, my waitress was very friendly or the food. It's the cost, she showed me my bill and the burger was 12.99, so I was billed approx 13.50 without tax for 3 pieces of bacon and gravy and a pop. I did not think I was being charged for a meal at the Chop
Really enjoyed this restaurant on a recommendation from a local while on vacation in St.Thomas. The atmosphere is cozy, great food and big portions. Felt like a real down home type experience. Would love to go back some day!
Lovely service and the food was really good. Way too much for us Brits but we ate what we could. Highly recommend- not far from Port Stanley. Charm special is big and tea good.
Been here five times now! They now have debit!!! Excellent food, excellent service from the wonderful staff and have left satisfied and full every time. Having visited most of the other diners around in the area, I can say without a doubt that you won't find better than here. Thanks for another great time, will be back again!!
I would give it more stars if I could! This is an amazing place for breakfast. They are so friendly and the food is DELICIOUS! Excellent value for amount of food you get. Highly recommend!!
The staff was very friendly and attentive, and on a Tuesday morning, the service was very fast too. Everything was as requested, well plated and fresh. I look forward to returning and trying other meals. I was very pleased to learn they have a no-sugar syrup choice. Cash only but there's an ATM on site. Masks required.
First time having breakfast at this place, experience was great. We got just what we asked for, and very friendly service.
The breakfast here is delicious, good portions and reasonable prices for the food.
Comfortable, relaxing place for breakfast. Always busy for their meals because the food is so good.
Best breakfast Ive had in a long time. Fantastic service fantastic food !!!!
Always great food. The staff are efficient and friendly! Never had a bad experience here.
First time here in 19 years. Food was excellent. Very hot and tasty best place to eat in st thomas. We definitely will be back. Hats off to the chef.
Great breakfast!
Wonderful service as always!
First timer to this place and i loved it .came here with my wife while visiting port stanley we were looking for a breakfast place in that area but decided instead for st thomas .and thats where we found this gem of a place .ohhh man what a great breakfast we had .never seen thick cut back bacon before it was delicious! Service was nice and cordial and quick! Next time we visit the are we will be coming back for sure
Decent food, reasonable prices, great service. Breakfast and lunch Food
My wife and I thought of checking out this cafe on my first visit to St Thomas and we were very impressed. The food was delicious and the staff working there were very sweet. The atmosphere in the cafe was great and this place is definitely a must visit. Well be returning for sure. Parking: Over 8 parking spots on front of the cafe Kid-friendliness: The staff are great and very friendly with kids.
Nice quiet place with great food
Best breakfast in town. Everytime.
I enjoyed the breakfast , lots of options. Coffee refilled without asking, its a busy Cafe because its so good ! Food
The one place to go if you just want a basic breakfast. Bacon , eggs and hash browns done like no other in town . At least not compared to service and pricing.
I remember when breakfast here was affordable. I just ordered 2 eggs with bacon, toast, home fries, and a coffee. Was just charged $17.50! Used to love coming here on my visits to St. Thomas, but no more. At that price, the presentation needs to improve and the coffee should taste fresh.
Love breakfast here!
Amazing staff great prices amazing food.
Best place for breakfast and lunch hands down!
Food was great! One thing I didnt like was not even at the table for 2 minutes after getting coffee and menus and had someone ask if we were ready to order. Said nope need few more minutes not even 2 minutes later ANOTHER WAITRESS asked again. Didnt like that. We get the bill put money on the bill and no one came we had to actually ask someone for the change. It was a $35 bill paid with a 50$ NO WAY I would be leaving a $15 tip. Just odd how they are pushy to get you order but then slow down once its time to pay.
I asked to substitute pancakes to French toast. They refused unless I paid a $9.99 upcharge. Sausage wasnt cooked fully and eggs were runny...on top of everything they have 2 small notices saying they dont take debit or credit...it cost me 40 for 2 people for breakfast...
Cozy little place. The staff / waitress was amazing. My steak was over cooked they redid it. The place is very CLEAN. I was amazed even the bathroom was CLEAN. I was a bit surprised at the prices for a cash only place and my husbands can of ice tea was $4.00 shocking. All in all a neat place.
Excellent food here. I love their breakfast. Service was fast. Cash only, but they have a machine in the restaurant. Will come back.
Staff very friendly. Huge amount of food as had to take some home. Very clean and very busy. Get your moneys worth. Would recommend if you are looking for dine in or take out. I have done both.
Steak and eggs is likely the best breakfast I ve ever had
Great food.
Great food
Great food and lots of it. Coffee good too
Outstanding service and food. Best pea meal bacon I ve ever had in a restaurant. Server was friendly and attentive. Simply wonderful! Parking: Lots of parking.
$17.50 is a bit much for sausage n eggs n bitter coffee
Cash only is fine. ..... $3.50 for a cup of coffee is not ! Parking: Its ok ... not a huge amount of it.
Down-to-earth, cash-only place with diner classics and brunch staples, all served with a smile and small town hospitality! Highly recommend the French toast with cinnamon sugar! Special thanks to Cathy for making it a great Easter brunch!
Best breakfast in town, just check the size of that peameal bacon! Huge!
Cash only
Love coming here. The staff are always amazing and the food is always great. Highly recommend the eggs Benedict or their pemeal bacon. Make this a weekly breakfast visit!
Great food. Awesome breakfast. Eggs Benny is amazing.
If I could give more stars I would. This place is amazing! Great portions, tasty food and comfy environment. Great small town breakfast cafe
Love this place breakfast is the best
Eggs Benny are bang on perfection
I have always loved this place! You may pay a bit more than somewhere else, but if you leave hungry, its your own fault!
I wish I had looked into what I was getting before I did. 16 dollars for 3 chocolate chip pancakes, 7 dollars for a tea, and coffee, 850 for an egg sandwich. That was 2 pieces of brown bread and I egg. Staff was wonderfully atmosphere was lovely. Just a bit shocked at what I got being almost forty dollars.
Even though the food is great, the staff is friendly, the place has a great atmosphere for what they are going for and the service is quick, they still have limited hours and do not take debit and only cash. They do have a machine onsite but you are paying for that. That is the reason that I have given them 4 stars ****.
Amazing 10 out of 10. I almost dont want to post this to let the secret out. Its clean. Fast service. Good price abd variety. Wow great
This place is great, it is like stepping back into Grandmas house for Sunday night dinner. There is Great laughter, good conversation ,people are not loud its a nice place to have a quiet dinner if thats what you choose to do. The staff always seem to be upbeat and happy always smiling very friendly & the food is fantastic.... its a great place to be
Always amazing food and great staff
Pretty good, but bit over priced for food that was quite mediocre. Service was quite lovely though. Food : 3/5
Great food, great service. Warning - cash only Food
Food was delicious. Service was great.
Great food. Amazing staff and very clean washrooms. Loved the country charm feel!
We visited in August with my aunt and uncle from Nova Scotia, and then more recently with my dad. Both times we had wonderful service, delicious home-cooked breakfast that was perfect and not a long wait. We love country charm.
Enjoyable place for breakfast and lunch. Not the chain restaraunt type place. More homey without the work!
Always a great breakfast and my son loves the waffles.
Awesome place. Good grub
Excellent old-school breakfast place!
Best breakfast in town. Cash only but there is an ATM on site.
Nice quiet spot for a good breakfast with family
The staff are friendly and efficient and the food is always hot.
Awesome find. Great food My complaint is. $3.50 for coffee and they only take cash. ATM on,site for $2 fee. Cash grab. Upon questioning server said its posted in the window It is but not clearly visible and not mentioned till chq came. Visible signs are that its trip advisor approved and other accolades. For that reason its a 3 star
Very, very good food.
Good food good prices good service
A exquisite meal you will enjoy .....
Extremely fast, great portion size and very friendly staff!
Always great food, large portion sizes and friendly staff. Just dont understand why they are still only cash. Who doesnt have debit these days ?
The best breakfast place youll ever find!
Always great eating here! Staff are wonderful, and the food is good and served quick
So much food, delicious breakfast Perfect eggs and the steak and peameal bacon are so good. Bring cash
Had a nice lunch with my mother. Cute decor, tables are maybe a little small. I had the liver and onions, which was delicious. The liver was cooked perfectly. Not overdone, still tender. Huge, generous portions.
Great service, plenty of food. Very clean.
Amazing place to go for breakfast. Food is always hot and service is Great!! Love there shredded hashbrowns. Definitely my go to place for breakfast.
I was so disappointed we had wonderful service wonderful food and a comfortable environment. I will have to go back next to see if I can find something to complain about thank again for a wonderful breakfast.
Horribly over priced !!!!!!! For the food you get and bring cash because they don t have visa or debit !!!!!!! Don t go
Excellent
Best place for breakfast by a mile
Breakfast for two, $47! Two cups of coffee, grilled chicken sandwich-no sides. Mexican omelette w/ gf toast.
FOOD & SERVICE WAS GREAT
Several of us would ride our bicycles from Tillsonburg to the Country Charm for breakfast. Great breakfast for a great price. Tried the Big Breakfast once, I believe it was called. It came on 2 plates, eggs & toast on one plate & the biggest piece of peameal bacon Id ever seen! Couldnt finish it, even after riding 45 k.
Great lunch friendly service.
Stellar food, super friendly and attentive staff, reasonable prices. Will definitely go again.
Hands down best breakfast in town. The pancakes are to die for!
Great food and huge portions. Lovely staff.
Great local restaurant. Friendly staff. Its my go to place for breakfast.
Everything about this place is 5 stars. The food is always above expectations and the staff is always super friendly.
Cash only. Atm fee hustle at checkout. Food tasted like Walmart......no charm about feeling duped.
I havent been there in over 2 1/2 yrs, still is a great place to eat food and service wonderful of course prices are up but everything is.
I can t say enough good about this local favourite of mine! I especially love Kenzie, the hostess. She is always there to greet patrons with a smile and a kind word. The food is top notch- from the peameal bacon they are so well known for to their fluffy pancakes. The name country charm is perfect for this charming little gem of a restaurant in St. Thomas. Thank you for being awesome!
Been a few times fist time in 2 years service and food were great waitress was excellent good price
Quick friendly service. Definitely more bang for your buck!
It has been over a decade and I was just as impressed as the first time. Amazing meal!
My go too for breakfast. Best omelet es in St.Thomas. Very curtious and friendly staff.
Amazing food and great staff
Great employees and experience here. Very friendly and welcoming place to go with yourself or with a family. I really enjoyed the food here, this place had very wonderful chef as well.
Country Charm is a breakfast and lunch must-go to in St. Thomas! It is a family-run restaurant that is friendly, fast service and very clean. Absolutely the best breakfast choices, including g/f for all ages and appetites!
An amazing restaurant that s been a staple in the community for years. I strongly support this small business by a man of colour who has an exceptional place to visit, with good staff, fast food, and a good atmosphere. 5 stars isn t enough! Kudos for being a st Thomas must eat here restaurant!
We ordered a large breakfast and coffee. Everything was awesome. Bit on the high side price for coffee but it is very good and bottomless so considering all costs going up...this place is definitely not a disappointment. Will be back for sure. All quick friendly service too.
Sorry but this day and age, cash only speaks volumes.
Great food. Friendly helpful staff
Always good food and lots of it. Never been disappointed here, mind you we normally only come for breakfast. I cant speak for the rest of the menu but the place is always packed.
Excellent service and food. Our breakfast was hot and delicious! Our coffee was topped up before we even asked. The line up out the door on a Sunday morning shows you just how good this food is. Don t let the line intimidate you- the hostess keeps things moving and the potion sizes leave you beyond full. We will definitely be back.
Dine-in space is pretty small, a bit over a dozen tables. Food selection was ok, but the menu wasn t descriptive as to what certain things were. Service was a bit slow and we had to ask for things repeatedly but never got them. Overall you could just make the breakfast at home, wasn t unique. Unfortunately I don t think I ll go back. Also it s cash only, they have an atm on site but you should bring about $25 per person.
Good home style comfort food. Cash only. No debit or credit.
Food is wonderful Coffee and tea for $350 is a bit much in my opinion Food
The Best breakfast weve ever had. Peameal bacon is fantastic. Priced reasonably great srevice
Been here many times now. Nothing fancy, but quality food with consistency. Service is always great, and the atmosphere is what is because of the all wood throughout / antiquated charm of the place. The thick cut peameal bacon is amazing!
This place never disappoints, great homemade style food with generous servings...the servers are always focused on customers no matter how busy or the time..One of my favorite.places to support.
Parking: Lots of free parking! Food
Best breakfast
Best place to get breakfast in my opinion and the service is wonderful.
My spouse and I love this diner! The staff is so, so lovely. Our regular order is the eggs benny and corned beef hash. Seriously, worth checking out! Please note that they accept cash only. While they do have an ATM, I recommend bringing cash rom home or your bank to avoid those pesky ATM fees.
Once again the Hungryman Special with 3 eggs and 3 thick pieces of peameal bacon hits the spot! Prices are great, quiet atmosphere, SD rules followed, and great service. Bring cash, its the Charm!
Great staff also
Great breakfast , always fast and friendly service. Recommend
This is without question the best breakfast I have had. And its the exact same as 12 years ago when I ate here often in college. If your near by this is where you want to eat. Get the Country charm special with shredded hashbrown
Always fantastic every time
We just randomly went there for breakfast. Honestly it was one of the best I ever had! Would highly recommend!
Nice and quaint.
Fast, friendly..massive amounts of food. Best breakfast in town!
Always great food. Breakfast there has always been my favourite, peameal bacon is amazing. Pancakes always so fluffy. Wonderful staff as well. Just remember to bring cash, no cards accepted but they have an ATM that only charges $2 to withdraw money
Great breakfast and service. Generous helpings.Best potatoes ever. Would definitely return
I had the Charm Special! It was delicious!
Amazing food ,relaxing atmosphere
Love going for breakfast on a weekend. Drove all the way to Country Charm and we were not disappointed. Great service .great portions. We are coming back as long as the gas prices aren t to high lol.
Food was ok. Nice that they had a gluten free menu. But I was unpleasantly shocked by my bill. expensive for what you get.
Good fresh food and friendly service.
Great food, great staff, great place. A must to check out!
This place has changed. I was Not impressed with their breakfast. As well as their coffee is gross! I used to love this place . The waitresses are Great! As for food or experience of their menu, I wasnt impressed at ALL. I will not return because of how gross and expensive their food was for the poor quality.
Great place to est
Perfect breakfast, clean and friendly
Cant beat the Charm for breakfast...cant beat it
Excellent food and service
Make an amazing breakfast
Fast friendly service, great food. 4 stars instead of 5 because its cash only.
Best value breakfast. Large portions of really good food for a very reasonable price.
Been a while since we ate here, portion sizes have gotten smaller, food was ok, but nothing out of the ordinary.
Great food! Loved my breakfast. The peameal bacon was amazing!
Great food
Fabulous breakfasts great service
So, this is a cute little cafe that weve visited a few times now, and it has been pretty great each time. The serving staff are welcoming and attentive, and the overall ambiance really does have a country charm to it - so, its aptly named. We stopped in for pancakes on Shrove Tuesday, and were not disappointed. Fresh coffee, fluffy pancakes, light and airy scrambled eggs ... and a side of delicious baked beans - all quickly prepped and served with a smile. There is no shortage of local options for breakfast around town, but if you are a fan of homestyle cooking, you should put the Country Charm Cafe on your list - but just for breakfast and lunch ... they are not open for dinner.
Such a cute little place.
Good food, good service
Amazing food, great service, always good prices, very welcoming atmosphere, never a regret going there for any meal.
Excellent breakfast place
Wow - this place is a great gem! We will most certainly be back when we are in the area again. The staff is warm and friendly and the atmosphere is cozy. The food is delicious and the portions are generous! We felt that management takes health and safety seriously as there were partions between booths and there was sanitizer readily available.
Waitress was very nice, food was questionable. Eggs were great, peameal bacon was cut way too thick, sausages were slightly burnt, too heavy on the butter for the toast, and lastly cash only at this restaurant (yes even durring covid-19). you must pay a fee to use their ATM.
New to St Thomas and visited for breakfast based on Reviews and was not disappointed!
Very good hearty breakfast and quick and courteous service. I highly recommend it.
If you re looking for a great breakfast and friendly service, you have found it!
Not too bad. Potatoes left us feeling not so charming.
I love the breakfasts here!
Best food in town
We went there for breakfast yesterday. Portions were great, as well as the food. They also have a gluten free menu which looked just as good as meal I had. Bring cash with you. Its really not that big of a deal. Their website states cash only, as well as the sign on their entrance. Theres an atm inside in case you forget. This place might be our new favorite Friday breakfast spot.
Friendly staff
Food was awesome and service was outstanding and friendly. Still a lovely little place in St. Thomas.
The breakfast was amazing
Love this place!
Grate start. Great breakfast. Highly recommend the hungry mans breakfast
Great food and fantastic service!
good service
Great family style restaurant! Service is outstanding! Food is good and meals are huge!
Lots on the plate..But......Bring cash...
Best breakfast in town! I have had almost everything on the menu by now and never had a meal I didnt enjoy. Today I had eggs benedict with peameal and hashbrowns. Amazing as usual!!
Awesome food and service
Food is well worth the wait, sometimes there is a line up to get in on weekends.
Great service. Great food.
Delicious! Friendly staff. Excellent service
