1881 Steeles Ave W, Toronto, ON M3H 0A1, Canada
Family-friendly chain with bright decor featuring healthier-minded takes on breakfast & lunch.
We like Cora however it usually takes too long for the order to come! The presentation of the fish was disappointing! Kids meal also is too sweet! They could go for a a little healthier options! Including fruit in the meal doesn’t make it healthier as long is there is too much sugar in the food
We came here on a weekend for breakfast. The place is pretty spacious with lots of tables. We ordered the pancakes with fruits and Benedict 3 egg with goat cheese. Both were really well designed and fresh, however the pancakes were average in terms of softness and the benedict had too much cheese which outweighed the taste of the sauce. The coffee was very fresh and its refill unlimited. The table had all the sides, like jams and peanut butter and syrup. The lady who served us was super nice and cheerful. The service was really fast although it got packed very quickly. The good point is there is free parking outside.
It's okay, got the cora special. Quite pricey and you really don't get a whole lot. Also I found the cutlery were stained (clean but had previous coffee/ yolk stains). Also fruits are not that fresh.
So many breakfast options to choose from and pleasant wait staff. Sweet little fudge was so good
I ordered the Gargantuan breakfast, but the home fries were burnt. We arrived an hour before closing, and it seemed the cooks may have been rushing to end their shift. I requested over-medium eggs, but they were served over-hard with nearly burnt edges. While it's understandable that this is a busy spot, customers still pay full price and expect quality food. I wouldn't recommend visiting during weekends or peak hours.
I've had the pleasure of visiting this establishment several times and would confidently say it's one of the best places in the area. The chefs here are quite skilled, consistently delivering dishes that stand out for their quality and flavor. The variety on the menu ensures that there's something for everyone, and the presentation of the dishes is always appealing. While the service is generally satisfactory, the food is what truly sets this place apart from its competitors. The staff are friendly and try their best, but occasionally there can be minor delays, especially during peak times. On weekends, this spot tends to be quite busy, which speaks to its popularity. We usually visit during this time, and the bustling atmosphere is part of the charm. However, if you're planning to go on a weekend, I would recommend planning ahead to ensure you have a good experience. Arriving early or making a reservation can help you avoid long wait times and secure a good table. It’s worth noting that the lively weekend crowd adds to the vibrant atmosphere, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Overall, this place offers a delightful dining experience with superior food that makes up for any minor service hiccups. Whether you're a regular like us or planning your first visit, you'll likely find the quality of the food well worth the trip. So, if you're looking for a standout dining option in the area, this is definitely a place to consider.
So let's start with the bad stuff. Unfortunately the strawberries 🍓 were not the freshest and the cream wasn't as great as well. Now to the great part. Lots of parking spots outside. The waitress was really nice. Took quickly care of my order, was really friendly and gave a welcoming ambiente. The maple coffee was great as well. Standard Cora experience.
Cora Breakfast is an absolute delight! From the moment you step through the doors, you are greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. Kaieen, our frequent waitress is awesome with a big smile anytime we walk in. Although it might be slightly more expensive than other breakfast spots, the quality of every dish is simply outstanding. Each plate is meticulously crafted with its own unique design and bursting with mouthwatering flavors. A visit to Cora Breakfast is an experience that never disappoints—it's worth every penny!
Clean fast service. Good breakfast
I came with my family and my food had a hair very long on the egg and even though the remake it the second time came the eggs not well done and it went bad on my stomach. I really like this place but won t go back to this location unless they start using something to cover completely their hair.
We were looking for a breakfast place on Sunday, and I recalled seeing this place when I pass by the block via TTC. The entrance is a little confusing, but youre then welcomed by friendly staff. I wish I could rate the food better, but I was quite disappointed and left still feeling hungry. My friend got the eggs benedict that had a fruit platter, and I got a meal that had eggs/bacon/potatoes and french toast with strawberries. Neither of us were fond of the potatoes which look like they should have a little crunch, but are just very soft/soggy and unseasoned. My french toast just tasted like toast with strawberry syrup on it, it didnt taste like it was drenched in batter before being fried. The syrup which tasted a little artificial was the only sweetness on the bread. The fruit didnt look too bad but also didnt look the freshest, so neither of us had any of it. The two meals plus canned drinks came up to over $50, so it definitely wasnt worth the cost. The staff, who were super attentive, the cleanliness, and the speed of which the food came were all positive points. If youre okay with more basic/simple breakfast items, youll probably like the food more!
Excellent all round! Service was great and fast. Clean and bright. Lots of parking and easy in and out of lot. Was busy but fast delivery of our food. Food was delicious and coffee was great!
The hours presented online and on their door do not suggest that they re open A group of people and I were trying to go to the restaurant early in the morning and unfortunately the restaurant was closed even an hour after the suggested time opening time
It mentions both on the google map and on the door that the store opens at 6 am Monday to Friday. However, when we visited at 6:30 am on a Monday, the store was closed and the solo staff inside completely ignored us.
Stopped in just for a coffee to go, but John was so lovely we decided to stay for breakfast. Excellent service by Amelia! Very clean and high level of attention to detail. We will be back.
service not good. not horrible just not very polite.
I ve ordered a crepe first time it came it was super hard not fresh at all second time they brought another one and it was uncooked! Customer service is not the greatest either. The girl kept on forgetting our food !
There is no much to say about Cora breakfast place, it says everything for himself. Best place for breakfast
I had breakfast after a morning workout at the gym. I chose Coras special from the eggs category of their menu. I would have given a 4 star for the food, but the sausage and the ham quality, not the cooking or the presentation, deserve only a 3. The portion was very generous, and it had everything I wanted. Friendly staff and quick service.
I think they ve gone out of business. We were there at 6:30. The door says 6 AM Monday to Saturday and it was dark inside, nobody there.
good food and customer service!
Very good food here but the price is a bit high. Other than that no complaints!
Completely unprofessional at answering phone calls, I was here waiting since 5:59, eggcited to have an eggcelent breakfast. I called precisely at 6:02, that is 2 minutes of grace period to open up shop if yk what I m sayin. Like im so hungry, and they re denying me breakfast. I want chocolate chip pancakes with coffee and eggs with bacon and a side of everything else. Would rate 0 stars if I could.
Tara was friendly and her service was excellent
Lots of choices in the menu. Vegetarian alternatives available.
very fast and efficient and soo friendly! Love this place
Extremely expensive for no reason, it ll taste better if you cook home
Cool place to be..
The restaurant is clean but tired looking. They have a breakfast special but it finishes very early (8:00) The breakfast is average. The bacon not very crispy and the home fries are soggy and really just oddly cut French fries. The service was good but the restaurant was not very busy.
Great food and service. Not often that a breakfast can fill me up. The gargantuan was top notch!
It s nice and food are good. But I can t say it was amazing.
I m quite a big fan of Cora. Their food is so great and affordable
Came in for breakfast. My server Emily was very helpful,attentive and cheerful. Food was good and service outstanding. Made my morning
Great service and the food as well
We come here probably once a month. Food and service is always on point. Keep it up!
Very good food, but very dirty bathrooms.
It is very pleasant to discover the different dishes they offer on each visit and continue to surprise us with the flavors and combinations. The attention and service is excellent.
Ordered extra bacon and sausage never got it. No straw with juice. No salt and pepper. Quite dissapointing. Easy way to lose customers.
The food items are very creative and unique. Taste is phenomenal. Id eat here every morning.
Cora is a fantastic spot for breakfast and lunch. The food is delicious, with a great variety of options to suit all tastes. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. The staff is exceptional friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. Whether youre having a quick bite or a leisurely meal, Cora is a top choice. Highly recommended!
I was in there today. Nobody placed an order for 20 minutes. I just came out. Employers need to hire additional staff. Food : 1/5
Great value. The fruit options are impressive. Nice outing for the children and whole family. Wont break the bank. Plenty of free parking. Fun Times with the children.
Tasty breakfast, goid portion size and nice staff.
Well I really wanted to like the food here but the fruits were not fresh. I think they order them In bulk already cut. For the price of the dishes youre better off going to Wimpys honestly.
Wonderful menu - something for everyone and makes you want to go back and try another dish. My Brunch Burger was delightful. Well prepared with obviously fresh ingredients. The service was perfect; polite, fast, and welcoming. Family friendly.
Service was a little slow, food came out fresh. Portions are quite large and they give a lot of fruit - almost too much! Prices are a little on the higher side for a simple breakfast place
Went for brunch. Super busy. Our turn came in 10-15mins. We tried Nacho grilled cheese sandwich and a Burrito crêpe. Both were good. Staff was nice and helpful.
The cutlery is dirty and services are quite slow. If you dont like waiting a long time, avoid it!
Delicious breakfasts and good service. There is an opportunity to make breakfast according to your preferences. Good coffee. Good service. Thank you Parking: There is parking mostly in the morning
The food is great,the service is excellent.
Good food wonderful staff highly recommend
Food was good (at the time). Had eggs benedict. Suffered after with food poisoning. I cant say for sure where I got it from, but the only takeout I had was from Coras
The place was pretty cozy, the food didn t taste as great. Cora s is my favourite breakfast place and didn t feel like it was up to the regular standards. The service wasn t also great. We didn t get water to start with, the sever didn t follow up with us inbtw and forget that someone didn t pay when we called her over she gave the biggest sigh
Nice breakfast place although it was very busy
Excellent family breakfasts
Huge portions of delicious food. Would definitely recommend if you gave that lunch experience Vegetarian options: You ll definitely find good options. It s not marked, so check out the ingredients.
Good tastes
Well managed and clean location. Ample seating and food is always A+. Staff are attentive and well trained, service is consistently good between all of them. My personal favourites are the Gigi and the breakfast burrito
An old brunch with a long menu concluded a lot of choices for you . Different beverages , fresh friuts , fresh toasts , eggs , sweet and salty omletes and so on . Prices are affordable and fair enough . Hope you enjoy it .
Very busy place. They have alot of options but the portions are not what they should be. I asked for Cora breakfast (2 eggs, only bacon and ham and homefries) another in my party asked for the same but when it came the mind had very very Crispy bacon that just crumpled in your had which I did not like there was barely eggs on the plate for scrambled eggs. The other person asked for no sausage but yet it came with sausage. We had to ask for Utensils and milk for our tea. It was Ridiculous. This is somewhere I will never go to again. Parking: Very hard to exit out on to Dufferin going left and trying to go Left until Steels.
Fresh tasty food at this Cora branch. Big thanks to our server John for his great service and attention. He was super polite, caring ! He made sure that we have everything we ordered and all meet beyond our expectations. Thanks John for your great work Food
I m sure their breakfast is good when you re eating in the restaurant but do not order for delivery. Food is cold ! French toast is burnt! My side order of home fries looks extremely sad and the microwave bacon doesn t really do it for me.
Soot on!!
Only giving one star because I can t give zero! After me and my family were done eating our meal I like to clean up all plates and gather up everything together, once I took the napkin from bottom of bread basket, we noticed a dried chewed up gum at the bottom. Disgusting! I will never be returning to the Dufferin and Steeles location. The manager did absolutely nothing about the situation and the server only took off our drinks from bill which was a coffee and a chocolate milk. Now I m not expecting a free meal but I was expecting more to be done and not just I m so sorry nasty, nasty, nasty! Clearly someone isn t checking and cleaning properly. I wish I took a photo for confirmation of the event.
I give it 4 1/2 stars food was good, grandson s loved his eggs & all fruit was busy needed more staff. Great place for families however don t want to over burden the place but is great place to dine with entire family
Went for first time. Rich menu with plenty of options, even kids menu is nice! More than just pancakes and grilled cheese. We had sushine crepe (delicious and fruits were fresh) and breakfast poutine with Frankfurt sausage. Everything delicious, warm and well served. Im not a coffee person, but even the coffee was delicious for my taste. I had 3 cups! Coffee refill is great!
The server a young lady Keyanna, very professional, she provide me a great service
Honestly, not great. I d been to a Cora s location many years ago and wasn t impressed but I thought I d give it another try. This time I was equally unimpressed. For breakfast food, prices are quite high. I paid $15 for pancakes and that is it. Most other breakfast places will give you eggs, bacon, and potatoes for that price range. If the pancakes were great then it would really be an issue, but we waited more than 30 minutes for our food and it came out super dry and unappealing. I don t recommend this breakfast restaurant. You re honestly better off going to a Denny s or Wimpy s.
Our regular go-to place for sunday brunch. Their Penelope crepe made with buckwheat flour is our favourite. Also, great pancakes and waffles
It a bit pricey. But good food and good service.
Good portions, quality of food.
Food was good. Service was ok.
We received a good service from L John.
Took my family for the crepe special, we stood in the entrance way waiting for over 15 minutes being ignored, my wife who is black asked a server if she could assist us and the manager very rudely and said they would be with us when they can. He then spoke to the hostess who promptly seated us next to the toilet. I believe the manger is racist and didn t like that we are a mixed couple and treated us very poorly, rude slow service and very overpriced food. Never go there again and I would advise others to stay away as well.
Decided to come for their all you can eat Crepes for $10, but it means you get three crepes to start. The only way to dress them up is with syrup. So, with added fruit, your cost jumps to $27.95 for one person before tax. Way too pricey. I ordered a spinach & cheese omelet $15.95. It is pre-made, so if you dont want onions, it can not accommodate you because peppers would also be eliminated, saying our waiter. Dish served with a mound of home fried potatoes, assortment of fresh fruit and toast. Almost all the entree choices here cost $17.95 and up. There was nothing of interest that I wanted as each entre had at least 1,800 calories. Its impossible to order eggs, bacon, and toast because it comes with a mound of home fries and fresh fruit, perhaps even two pieces of toast. I cant eat that much. This place needs a lighter fare like a green salad or a simple 1/2 sandwich, like $9.99 instead. I think today is my last time here as it just doesnt appeal to me anymore. After a while, new meals should be added because its the same old food that you get tired of eating, plus you turn into a ten ton Louie walking outta there. The toast served to me wasnt toast at all. It was whole wheat bread with butter not toasted, so we asked for another serving. That was after we got our servers attention as he was in the midst of cleaning the floor with broom in hand at the other end of the restaurant. Off he went to get it along with a cup of coffee. I said to my spouse, I wonder if he will wash his hands. We watched him and Nope, he didnt do that. Instead, his hand went directly into the loaf of bread, and well, you know the rest. I wasnt going to eat it. Just witnessing him do that totally grossed me out and where the heck is his common sense. Overall, this place is looking like it needs a face lift, there were too many tables without social distancing, messes on the floor not picked up at any table and stacks of childrens seats randomly stacked here and there. The atmosphere is too rushed, and to have staff pushing a broom to and fro under our table, I wanted to scream get lost. The total cost for two for lunch was $32.15 with tax, and that is way too much.
Lovely breakfast experience
If I could give 0 stars I would. Went this morning with my Husband. The womans washroom was nasty. My crepe was stone cold and had a wierd after taste. The server never asked us how the food was and when I asked for the bill she saw my plate barely eaten asked if I wanted to go I said no. She brought the receipt and machine and left our table. First time of by life giving 0 tips....
There was a huge line, they let the ppl behind us cut the line! Manager didn t care I asked for the deal going on to be explain .. servicer NEVER indicated that the. All yu can eat crepes weren t shareable until he brought 2 plates of it (and I asked if he charged us twice) nor did he confirm if we were both eating the all yu can eat crepes with the city opening all these all yu can eat brunches this was horrible service and expensive food for the environment and wait Oh and lastly most servers(the ladies) care more about socializing with each other then the food I watched sit on the Counter for a long time Bathrooms aren t stocked or clean
Fresh ingredients! Very tasty!
Still one of the best places for breakfast
Nice traditional style breakfast place. It is good for all eggs, omelets, bacon, sausages, and toast lovers. You can find sweet yummy breakfast foods too ( can not comment as always take eggs or omelets). Their coffee is good, too. Its nice to start a day with Cora. Parking: Plaza parking is always available and free
Our egg was supposed to be medium but it was too soft Poutine was missed at first then came with bacon instead of turkey sausage than came too late that we couldn t have it anymore. Happened on last Sunday of February in early morning btw. In general we like the place and service and will come back.
For years, this coras location was our breakfast place after work at least once a week. We have made some amazing memories here The staff was always the most welcoming. We dont visit as often, but its still a good place. LOVE their smoothies. Presentation is always perfect.
I love this place. Nice food
We re a Cora s family. Love them, we even met Cora opening a location once. So we know the menu up and down. This location is efficient and consistent with the quality of the food and those little details Cora s is known for.
Food was cold and the home fries were not fully cooked and same with the sausages cooks need more training.
Good food good service their smoothies are perfect marinara sauce and sour cream that comes with the burrito is a great idea Luis the undecided is my favourite when I can t decide what to order This location s service is faster than that of others Recommended dishes Bacon and Eggs, Bacon Strips
The washroom smells really bad that when people go and use it the whole place smells also! The food is good enough for a kid, very poor in portions.
Usually good food, this time the food was terrible. Dripping fat and grease. Food
Normally when I dine in at Cora the food is fresh and presentation is almost too beautiful to eat. I decided to order for pick up. I ordered french toast with strawberries and syrup. The strawberries were rotten on my order and my daughters strawberry waffles. The potatoes were burnt and the portions was minuscule. Not impressed at all Cora.
Not impressed with this location at all. Service is friendly enough but it is hard to get prompt service because they are obviously short staffed. Ive noticed they dont wash their fruit (the grapes, cantaloupe and strawberries were full of dirt/sand) and the crepes are undercooked so they feel doughy and taste of flour. Perhaps other locations are better, but next time i want a casual breakfast, Ill try Sunset Grill instead.
Grate atmosphere. Fast and efficient service decent portion of food. Food is delicious . Highly recommend
Great food.The maple latte was too sweet i just added another expresso shot on top of it and it was perfect. We had the western omelet and a vegetarian omlet.! I will stop by again when im in Brampton. It was very close to a traditional American breakfast
Terrible!!! Service, food, price, cleanliness - all terrible and sub-par. Yogurt and granola is $17 and there s barely anything in it. Asked for more yogurt as it only lined the bottom of the bowl, was charged $3.25 + tax for 2 tablespoons worth. Ordered grilled cheese, got two slices of toast with unmelted cheese. Asked them to put it on the panini press, waited 30 minutes and got the exact dish back. Asked for management, they stepped out . They only took the grilled cheese (which we sent back) off the bill.
This location is okay Service can use a big push! Recommended dishes
Horrible food and horrible service. Avoid this location
Generous amount of food, affordable prices and huge menu options. I dont give 5 starts because washroom was not clean enough and it didnt have toilet paper
Got seated quickly, which was nice. Service was decent. We got the Gargantuan Breakfast and the Crepes with sausage. Everything tasted okay. I think it s a little overpriced for breakfast food given the quality and portion sizes.
The service was excellent; the food was always delicious
Open?!!!! Seriously?!!!!! It s 7:10 am and still close!!!
The oatmeal is honestly just not good. I don t know if it s possible to make oatmeal taste good, but assuming it is, this is not the place to get oatmeal. The options are limited for anyone with dietary restrictions, which I get isn t their target market, but a little choice in the modern day never hurt anyone. I m hopeful they ll modernize a bit soon and expand their horizons - but until then, definitely won t be going back.
Food is great and portions are huge. Solid breakfast place.
Absolutely great blueberry pancakes. Warning: toast comes buttered, ask for no butter. Otherwise a very pleasant experience, very happy with my purchase!the eggs were cooked well, I thought the bacon and sausage could have been more well done, but the tomatoes were great. The salmon omelette was good. The booth is very comfortable. Wheelchair accessibility: The place is wheelchair accessible
Everything is average except the price which is high for what you get. Checked. No come back.
Great service, fast, tasty. Love to get my lunches here from time to time!
Service was great, food came out pretty fast.
I was so happy to find this returant in North York City. Server CK was very helpful in explaining what the menu was and helping me decide what I prefer. Not to mention, she was very friendly and professional. The food was delicious in the right portion. The prices was right Dietary restrictions: Eggs , multigrian bread with turkey sausage
We are tourists, this is the 3rd cora we have done and this is by far the worst. Very disappointed by the welcome which is usually great. The service makes a lot of mistakes, the quantity and quality of the food is much worse. We dont refill the coffee spontaneously like in the others. No game book suggestion for children. Dirty table, windows, walls obvious lack of hygiene. Disappointed for our last cora of the holidays.
Good customer service.
Do not come here if you have a food allergy. Specifically gluten. Staff is ignorant and was unable to get someone to help even after guests I attended with were served. Ended up eating nothing.
Great place! I got the For Jeremy burger and it was so delicious and filling.
The food was great. Not many people were there when i went in since it was a weekday and in the morning. Food was pretty good. It cost $50/- for 2 people to have a meal and coffee + tip.
At Coras you cant go wrong what set it apart is the service. That why theres always a line (wait time) weve been to almost all the Coras in the GTA.
I absolutely love Coras. Very clean, staff is very friendly, and the food is always delicious. A good variety of food on the menu. Price is good. Best place for breakfast and brunch. Absolutely love their crepes. Food : 5/5
I love Cora for its vibe and delicious breakfasts! I have visited a couple locations, and the one in North York ( Dufferin and Steeles) is the best. Our server , Paula, was great Food
I always love Cora but experience with this place is not so great. Staff is not friendly and atmosphere is average.
Gotten a bit more pricey as with anywhere these days but you just cant beat a 10 Star omelette. Easily one of my favorite breakfast items from any restaurant.
The service was not acceptable and good, and the side potato was raw! Also, it was too oily. When we reported the issue they didn t respect and did not say anything!
Loved it
The food took forever when they weren t even busy and it was cold when finally got it. Our server was a middle aged Asian lady that was hella cocky and she looked like she didn t want to be there. At one point she came and asked how our food was, and I told her that it was disappointing but she replied by saying thats great and left. Lol
Looks good Parking: Fantastic! Food : 5/5 |
I was kinda disappointed at the start because the server at the front was kinda rude. She barely acknowledged us when we entered not a hi hello nothing. We stood there for 5 mins right infront of her. Finally we asked if she didnt notice us. Our server or waiter he was really nice. We ordered the Surprise and the 1900 Harvest with the beet smoothie and Strawberry Banana Smoothie..I had the beet smoothie at a next location prefered the one there. Parking: Its in a strip mall so lots of parking
Amazing breakfast / brunch place! Never disappoints. Food
I went there for breakfast with my husband and we enjoyed the food. The smoothie that I ordered was really tasty and the food portion was good. The server was very nice and accommodating to our choice of food. I recommend this place.
Good food, large portion, good service.
Very nice place to have wonderful nutritious and healthy breakfast before you start your day .the breakfast so filling i didnt have to eat another meal for the whole day . the service is excellent and very fast . and many options to choose from keep you the good work Parking: plenty of parking
Im at the restaurant 2:15 and its closed while it clearly says open till 3. The girl who I spoke was rude. Never coming back here again
Great breakfast restaurant with fast service and awesome servers, definitely ll come back again
This is one of the best places to go to breakfast with your family or alone.
Over priced and not very appealing.
Always have a great experience!
Horrible dirty place, bad service
We have been here many times. Enjoy the atmosphere and the food. Our grand kids love it.
Food came burnt, server who dropped food off didn t care. Seemed annoyed. Way way overpriced. Will not return!
Great breakfast joint! Huge variety of egg dishes, prepared to your taste. Assortment of fruits and sweet desserts. An excellent way to start the day.
