Tiarré's Brunch N Cakes in Toronto

We loved every single bite

Had brunch at Tiarres Queen St. location yesterday - it was fabulous! Amy was our server and she was absolutely terrific!! The place is warm and friendly, definitely focused on making customers happy. And also the food was really good! We all enjoyed it and would highly recommend it. Parking: Dined at the Queen St. location. VERY busy area and restaurant was packed. Quite difficult to find parking - be patient and keep looking.

Zach was really wonderful in serving us and giving us food recommendations. His recommendations were amazing too

Went to Tiarre for brunch on a busy Sunday but you d never know as we were seated quickly and the service was fast and very attentive. Amy was fabulous in her perfect balance of giving us space but always being there when we needed anything. Will definitely come back.

Food is fantastic. They are open for dinner!!!!!!

We had an excellent Sunday brunch at Tiarre s! We only waited a few minutes before a table was ready. The food was delicious and came hot and the service was fast. We had Zach as our server and he was attentive and friendly. This is our new favourite spot!

Amazing brunch!!

This operator steals wages from his support staff. What I mean by that is that he takes money from the servers that is meant to be for the chef and support staff. However he keeps it. Seriously bad. Do not support this restaurant.

Alright place. Lovely esthetic. Good coffee but found the food to be a bit wanting. Pretty average for the price. Could make most of the menu items at home and make them just as good.

This restaurant is absolutely amazing. The food is excellent, the place is swanky and great cocktail selection. A++

Very average food.

ZACH WAS SOO GOOD AND THE FOOD WAS THE BEST MEAL I HAVE EVER HAD. No joke. Potato s were amazing

I have ordered from here before and the food was good. I ordered the jerk chicken tacos today and it was inedible. It was such a waste. Its almost like the person added more salt to the chicken and they forgot they had already done so.

Cozy vibrant brunch restaurant with exceptional services. Variety of menu. Fresh ingredients and delicious food leading your day bright and cheerful! Smoked Salmon Egg Benetton was excellent: perfect poached eggs with balanced smoked salmon melting in my mouth! Omelette of the day also has a few options of your choice, I chose spinach and goat cheese. It was good portion and well balanced! Coffee was fresh in full aroma to cheer my energy up! Also I noticed a bowl of water beside a menu stand at the entrance, which means pet friendly ^^

WOW, the best skillet ever, the connection of flavors, the spice hot but not to hot, was just incredibly delicious.

Not a very welcoming atmosphere. The waitress didn t take responsibility for the mistake in my order. The quality was fair overall.

Welcoming space with great food. Our server was very friendly and genuine. We ordered the brunch tower for two which was sooo good! The perfect gelato, pancakes, eggs, sides and coffee. We would absolutely go back here! Great gor vegetarians and easy to get a table.

A wonderful little restaurant with friendly staff, and great food. We found this place for brunch, and we are sure happy we did! Food is made with top quality and the choices are endless! I ate the Tomato Bisque with Grilled Cheese and loved it. Very cosy atmosphere and great staff who helped us with all we needed. Highly recommend Tiarré s and we will be coming back soon! Dietary restrictions: Halal and Vegan options were available.

High tea - Atmosphere 10/10 - food in comparison to price 6/10. Photo on website misleading unfortunately, very small portions, tea service was basic. Friendly staff

The brunch was awesome- loved the Benedict, will be back!

Excellent experience and delicious food at tiarres! Great for people with babies. Staff are lovely and go above and beyond (thanks Rawan!). Vegetarian options: Lots of delicious vegetarian options (healthy too)! Kid-friendliness: High chairs, excellent changing facilities, offer hot water for bottles etc..

Food was your typical breakfast nothing crazy. Drink of the day was supposed to be Passion Fruit Lemonade, but there was no trace of passion fruit in it. Server was good

My first time trying this place and I don t think I ll go back again. Servers were nice and polite but food quality and portion size was ridiculous. My shrimp frittata smelt like spoiled eggs and there were three fries on the side! My friend ordered sophy s breakfast which also feeds a 5 year old only and was basically two poached eggs, a piece of toast and the tiniest portion of side salad. Each dish cost us over $20 that was overpriced compared to what you can get at other brunch places.

Staff and setting were nice. Food and coffee werent very good. Coffee tasted like hot water. Maybe their desserts are better

Food was good. Atmosphere was cute. Service was exceptional. Noah made our day!

Showed up for dinner and initially was bombarded with a stressed out wait staff who claims she was left to do everything herself since her manager left. Drinks took quite some time, after finding out the beer tap for our choice of beer wasn t working, not her fault. Price Fixe menu wasn t mentioned, wasn t quite sure of what the soup of the day was, she didn t know what specific items were on the menu. The appy we wanted was not available, the calamari was extremely over breaded and made from frozen. The seafood pasta wasn t anything to write home about, my husband said the calamari was like chewing through a condem. The pasta and sauce were just OK, cooked well but I don t think it was freshly made. The chicken Parm was bland but edible. The dessert menu kept trying to leave our table, it was obvious the wait staff (and kitchen) just wanted to go home. After asking to leave the menu a second time, we were warned to put our order in within 15 minutes since the kitchen was on last call at 8pm. It felt very rushed. The sticky toffee pudding was OK and I was not very impressed with the apple crumble, there was no crumble. All in all, a not so good experience - brunch here was much better!

Food is amazing, servers are so nice. Lot of other alternatives for halal eater.

Ordered a grilled cheese, got the end of the bread loaf so it was extra crusty. However the worst part were the potatoes. Greasy and burnt. I was quite disappointed. Partner for the farmhouse skillet and it was ok. Mix of sweet potato and regular potato is great but it was very greasy. Otherwise, the servers were pleasant, nice family restaurant.

The food, service and atmosphere here are WONDERFUL!! Had the stuffed french toast and my son had the ricotta pancakes and there was definitely more than enough on our plates!! Delicious!

Vegetarian options: Almost half of the menu can be vegetarian Dietary restrictions: There s veggie/vegan options, GF and Halal options too Food : 5/5 |

If I could give zero stars I would. I ordered gluten free toadt, celiac. I was given regular bread which I didnt take notice of as it was toasted and tasteless which is quite like GF. After eating 1.5 slices I uncovered, quite by accident that it was NOT gluten free. I actually had to force the server to show me the bag of gluten free bread which they clearly did not want me to see. Didnt take long before I got sick. They didnt even show remorse. A quick Im sorry doesnt cut it. My brunch partner is allergic to vinegar and asked for dressing on the side. Her salad was all dressed all over the plate. Just awful.

Totally awesome place!

I came here on may 25th. it was very delicious and i had a god time with my faimily. The service is amazing as i was immideatly given a menu and a place to seat. The food came quick and was very delicious. very good place to eat

Food

Cute quaint spot. Great food. Decent prices. Would definitely visit again

The overall experience was good but I was expecting to get better dishes. The pancake taste was off and not balanced.

Avo toast- very little avocado. There is more goat cheese. The slices of baguette is dry n cold inside. Needs more toasting I guess. My first time but i will try another dish if we come back. Staff are nice though. Ambiance is good. Food

The manager at Tiarres is awesome. She went above and beyond to make sure our party was satisfied. I would return just for her and how well she handles tough situations. Thank you for your excellent service!

Definitely the worst brunch ever. I ordered a pastrami sandwich, I received a sandwich with store-bought pastrami cut thin and burnt, the eggs my wife ordered were horrible, she didnt even touch them but we found them on the bill Never again

Just went to the new beaches location on Saturday of the long weekend for brunch. Got seated right away. We sat there for about 20 minutes with no menus and no server. One person noticed and brought us menus. We sat there for another 15 minutes waiting for a server to check on us and bring some water and take orders, but nope. The tables on both sides of ours were being taken care of but it was like we didn t exist. I heard the lady who brought our menus speak to one of the servers asking who is taking care of our table but it seemed like no one was interested. In that time I noticed another family was seated and got water right away and the server took their orders. After about half hour of just sitting there we decided to leave and not one person asked why we leaving or apologized. Unbelievable. Worst experience I ve ever encountered at a restaurant.

The portions were sizeable, and the price was worth the food you received.

Used to find the food good/decent when it was still called Sophies. Had smoked salmon pancake which tasted more like peameal. Had Farmhouse fried skillet which which is a bit too soggy because of the gravy.. disappointing. Waitress was nice though. Ended up $56 after tip for 2 dishes/no drink

I ordered salmon Benedict. Food was cold 10/10. Eggs and salmon were delicious though! Servers were quite busy and couldn t check on us to refill coffees or water. Potatoes were over fried and almost brown. Bread was dried not feeling freshly toasted they forgot additional egg we asked but quickly made it. Finally if you are looking for somewhere to chill and have peace here is not the place. So noisy and crowded we couldn t hear each other and our toddlers were panicked but some people like it so it s your choice!

Bright and cheerful atmosphere. Food was very tasty. Best brunch we have had in toronto! Food

Worst service ever. Potato is carbonated We wait for napkin more than 15 minutes. Service

Cute little place. Food was good.

We went on a Thursday morning so it wasnt very busy. There is a very large menu, and the food was excellent. Very good size portions as well. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive.

We came here without a reservation during peak Sunday brunch period. Was pleasantly surprised at the attentiveness and responsiveness of the staff during such a busy period. Will come again. Food score is 4 out of 5 instead of a perfect five simply because the portions were smaller than expected for this price point.

It s a bit cramped but beautiful. Parking was a challenge around the area. I had Sophie s breakfast and portion is a tad smaller than most of Toronto s brunch places. The turkey sausage look unappetizing but surprisingly good. My friend ordered pecan crusted french toast and she devoured it. Tierra s Sunrise moctail is delicious but pina colada mocktail taste like a very watered down pineapple juice.

Very nice place with very nice food and very good service

Lovely bright place with kind service. Lemon pancakes are awesome.. but ask for only one or 2 as they are too big.

My son and myself went to this place at 6 pm Sunday, we were very cold and ready to drink a warn coffee with a cake, the waiter first asked us how many we are? We said 2 and then he said the kitchen is already closed but Google says it closes at 8 pm. What a rude attitude!!! And

Went there with my friend for the High Tea. The food was amazing and we had a really good time! It s a cute place for a girl s day out!

We made a reservation and confirmed it 30 mins prior and when we arrived 10 mins before our chosen time they told us they cancelled it because they thought we would be a no-show. However we confirmed and they didnt notify us of the cancellation until we arrived. Terrible customer service before we even sat down. My friend was hungry so ended up waiting another 25 minutes (we shouldve left), and the food was terrible. Bacon was overcooked. Also my cup had a piece of food on it when we sat down.

We had brunch as a family for the first time @Tiarres today and it was good. Would definitely return. The food was yummy and nicely plated. Our waiter was very nice and knew the menu well. Freshly squeezed orange juice was good, give it a try if you go. We had; - Tiarres favourite Pecan cornflake crusted french toast and it was too good. I couldn t stop eating it. - skillet farmhouse fry, nice flavour and tasted so fresh. - Shrimp frittata, never had anything like this for brunch before. Wasn t sure if I would like it when ordering but I cleaned my plate. - eggs benny with smoked salmon, yummy and the eggs were made perfectly the way we had asked.

Before heading to visit a family member at the hospital, I grabbed lunch here. It was the perfect atmosphere with its relaxing air, pleasant server, and choice of delicious foods. I had the shrimp frittata which was wonderful. They did not skimp on the shrimp at all. It was accompanied by a salad and some fantastic potatoes. I also had a heavenly hot chocolate. Definitely recommended!! Dietary restrictions: I am allergic to nuts and they were very careful.

Delighted with our brunch at tiarresbrunchncakes! Formerly called Sophies, the menu remains the same under new management. The white chocolate strawberry pancakes and 0G Lemon Ricotta Pancakes were exquisite. Family-friendly atmosphere with thoughtful details like a baby change table. Bonus: now offering high tea after brunch hours. A wonderful experience!

Overall, not a spot I visit again nor mention it to anyone. The pancake were saggy and unpleasant although the look was nice but inside of them was super chewy and plain. The coffee cups were not clean and one could see the residue of the coffees or teas from before. Bottomless coffee, the cup is really big so when one orders by the time you get to the end, the coffee will be cold. Seating was really cramped, no room for any movement and the chairs werent comfortable either. Our order came out wrong as well. service was hectic and didnt get to us sooner. The only reason for 2star was the Latte which flavor was nice. Having in mind that latte had no art on it. With that price one could have had better food and services.

This has been a nice neighborhood restaurant as Sophie s and I loved coming here for 10 years. As it claims not an intimate restaurant anymore .Unfortunately with new owner and staff it has lost its local touch. Too many tables put in and waiting for the food is long. But worst of all is the one particular waiter , M, who has been very arrogant and rude . I will probably not be coming back as long as he or similar servers with stress are around. This is a 10 people restaurant as kitchen is small but putting more tables created caps and unpleasantness combined with this rude server not recommending to anyone anymore. Still using Sophie s menu as it was successful but mostly we came for the friendly staff and relaxing no hassle hassle ambiance which is all gone. I feel like now I am at any egg restaurant or diner and not personal touch and not welcomed by the staff.

Had a delicious brunch here. Staff were friendly and there were lots of specials to pick from too.

Tiarres Brunch n Cakes is an absolute gem in Toronto! From the moment I stepped in, I was enchanted by the adorable decor and welcoming atmosphere. The high tea experience was a delightful journey of flavors the finger sandwiches, pastries, and scones were heavenly. The attention to detail here is outstanding, making it a food blogger s dream come true. The staff is friendly, and the service is top-notch. Tiarres Brunch n Cakes has officially become my go-to spot in Toronto for a foodie adventure. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates cute aesthetics and delicious eats!

Pretty good brunch spot. The menu isnt too big but I think youll have all you need to enjoy your time here. Had the skillet farmhouse fry and omelette of the day (spinach and goat cheese). Very delicious. One thing to note, everything one the plate had flavor. Even the potatos. You will enjoy all of it. Most surprising flavor: The hollandaise sauce. Excellent!

Service was great. Host/server was pleasant. Food was just ok. Potatoes were burnt. Pancakes looked nice but nothing special. Food

Beautiful little brunch place! Usually a small wait so make sure to include that when you re thinking about going.

Sophie s is a lovely place for brunch! I had eggs benny (vegetarian) which was delicious, the muffin was soft and the salad was fresh! I also had their freshly squeezed orange juice which was not too cold (just how I like) and very refreshing. It was surely busy and we waited close to 45min to get the table but the iPad to check-in came in handy. We were able to track the number of tables that were before us and they also sent a notification when it was our turn. In the meantime, we wandered around the streets for a bit and it was nice :)

Really good. And great service

The staff and atmosphere were very good. The regular breakfast items (egg dishes) looked good. My friends enjoyed them. I had the lemon pancake with ricotta and berry sauce. I liked the sauce and the hint of lemon in the pancakes. Unfortunately the pancakes themselves were not fluffy and just ok. (Tasted like a premixed store bought pancake mix). I was disappointed, given how good the pictures of the pancake looked. I won t order the pancakes again but would try one of the Egg Benny dishes the next time. I would come back because the staff were very friendly and attentive and the atmosphere very bright and pleasant. I m confident that I will find something on the menu that I will like.

I don t have anything negative to say about this place. Its a cute brunch spot with all the brunch classics. The service was good and the food tasted fresh and yummy.

Loved the food, delicious. Only two hiccups. Its cold in the restaurant, dress warm. And secondly they do not accept cash. Which is wild, apparently its an accountant issue. Anyway bring plastic, dress warm and enjoy and fantastic breakfast/ brunch.

Quaint place for breakfast menu items. Staff was friendly.

Service was excellent, all meals are really well served, we actually shared 2 for 3 persons. Loved the Benedictine eggs and the pancakes. The decoration is lovely, this place is great for breakfast with friends.

A superb brunch spot with excellent mimosas.

A neighbourhood staple. Must try!

Amazing food and service

Great breakfast, awesome service, we will be back again!

Wouldve been nice if there werent 5 giant fruit flies that we had to swat away from our faces and food every few seconds. It also wouldve been nice if they didnt burn the bacon. Wouldve been nice if it wasnt so cold that I wanted to wear my winter jacket in the restaurant and couldnt wait to be done eating their mediocre food. Actually.... even if they fixed those points, it still wouldnt be nice. Im never going back and wouldnt recommend either.

Great potatoes. My Gruyère quiche was good, although it needed salt, and the salad was nice light leafy greens with a good vinaigrette. The coffee was disappointingly not very hot though and the milk added to it was cold- so results were a not even warm coffee.

Delicious avocado toast! Nice staff. Big coffee

This place not only boasts the cutest decor, it is home to some of the best breakfast foods in the city. If you re looking for something different, try their Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, or my personal favourite: Pecan Cornflake Crusted French Toast with house made whipped cream. It is heavenly!

Delicious and worth a visit.

Great little breakfast spot! I love the pancakes, but it s a lot of food! The Sophie s breakfast is very good! The pecan cornflakes crusted French toast is so good!

Love this place. Both decor and food are excellent.

AMAZING food!

Amazing place for having heavy portion for breakfast. Our server Paige, perfectly describes the menu and guide us to pick the best one. However, I would recommend them to switch their orange juice glass to something bigger, because compared to the price of the orange juice, it is very small. Interestingly, their kids and adults orange juice glass is a same. It is a small and cozy place therefore it wouldn t be a good idea for larger groups. I guess, their biggest table would be for 6 people. It s good that they have also take out and you can order from them in Uber Eats and their dish is delivering same way as they are serving in the restaurant, pretty and heavenly. Last thing, their prices is really affordable as well. The dish in the picture was $16 and called Sophie s breakfast.

The food was very delicious made with fresh ingredients. The restaurant was a bit busy so the service took longer than expected. And I would suggest to the team to take additional care about the cleanliness of the place. Thanks

5 stars

We went there cause hubby was craving their pancakes. He was very disappointed this time around as they didnt live up to expectations nor were they as he remembered.. Service was not so great either. I had to get up from our table to place our order since our server was happily enjoying her iced coffee behind the counter. Had the breakfast sandwich. Nothing special about. The side potatoes were burned and over salted. I asked for them to be replaced. it was a different server who helped us. They were not burned the second time around but still over salted. At least they got my egg done right. Over medium as per my instructions. Probably wont be going there again. Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs and boosters for toddlers and kids.

The french toast is good. The egg Benedict was not a wow. I couldn t finish it.

I ve gone to this breakfast spot twice now and have enjoyed the food and service during both visits. Sophie s always impresses. Fresh, Healthy and Fun menu items.

I like the food recommend it

I think the art of poached eggs is lost. Might as well order hard boiled every time. Surprised that a place that specializes in eggs/breakfast can t poach. The waitress did see I didn t finish the eggs or rest of breakfast and apologized and offered a redo but by then was upset and ready to go. She also removed the coffee from billI. Think any $20+ breakfast should be cooked to order right specially when the joint is not jam packed.

Mothers Day brunch. Eggs Benny were great. Very busy, so a bit slow to get food but well worth the wait.

Great neighborhood place to pop in for coffee and croissant.

Great ambiance, cute decor. Good food.

Excellent place to have your Sunday brunch! Kids will devour everything! Great service.

I liked the brunch and also the environment.

Breakfast was excellent

Servers not as attentive as they could be. Had to ask for creamer twice, waters were not refilled, and no water jug provided. Food was great, simple ingredients and menu items, tasted great. Standard hip brunch spot to meet friends. Youre looking at a $25-30 per head after tax and gratuity for brunch.

Definitely a cute spot. Plating makes it instagram worthy however the food is 5/10. The ingredients weren t fresh. Bruised avocado, wilted greens and sad looking toast. The table wait system is not the best and it takes forever to place an order. One thing I appreciated is servers not hovering over me for a tip. We ordered Sophie s breakfast and juice; Sundries tomatoes and feta omelette with charcoal lemonade and Avocado toast. Drinks were pretty nice.

Cute little breakfast joint. Enjoyed the blueberry ricotta pancake - not too sweet!

Nice spot for Sunday brunch. Service was fast, and they were great with questions about alergins.

Their food is so good. I love the atmosphere and the customer service. The people there are so nice.

So.... I paid 8$ for a slice of toast from cobs bread with Nutella spread on top with 6 thin slices of banana for my children. One slice! Kids menu is so overpriced and the owner should be disappointment in this kind of prices. Im a fair person and understand the prices of dinning but this is robbery. Never again will you take my business. You should just close down. Also, the owner doesnt take cash, which was a problem, and potatoes are undercooked. Waste your money on quality food and not food thats just put together by teenagers

Best Eggs Benedict and potato hash I ve had in a long time! Definitely will be a regular!

Pancake is lemon flavour, recommended!

Disappointed. The food was not very fresh ( the orange juice was served with sparkling water and the oranges were not fresh, and the bread of the toast was not good).

Went there today with my husband and kids. The place was really cute, the service was excellent, and the price was on par with other brunch spots. The eggs Benny were really good. The only issue I had was minor and that it took a bit of time to get our food. Overall, I would go again.

Service was a bit slow, but the food was really good. The pancakes are superb, and the fact you could have them as a side order for just $3-4 each (I can t recall the exact price) was just the icing on the cake for me. I also order the skillet which was tasty.

We were walking up and down Bayview and needed a bite, but it was hard to decide where to go. As we passed Sophies we saw the plates others had ordered and it all looked great, so we decided to give it a try. We chose right. It was a nice day so we sat on the patio and the best way to describe it was cosy. I ordered a Caesar and the Farmhouse Fry Skillet. The Caesar was really good but I would have liked it a little spicier. Since I always mix everything on my plate the skillet is a great option. Everything in there works so well together. There were so many great looking dishes on the tables around me that I will be coming back to sample the rest of the menu.

Spphies breakfast was great.

There were three of us, two would have good things to say - but I am the one posting this review. First of all, based on other reviews, it looks like the menu has been seriously downgraded - now nothing fancier than Benedict offered - and the first thing I said when we sat down was how basic the menu was. But as both of my companions were content to go with Benedict, it worked for them. I settled on a cheap choice, scrambled eggs and toast $8, since nothing else appealed to me, and so Iwantedto spend as little as possible. There was a reason I selected such a cheap option. When she took my order, she asked me if I wanted potatoes, I said ok, the she said salad, I said ok. What she didnt ask me was if I wanted a whole other particular meal. To my dismay, when the bill came, I had been billed and charged for a Sophies special at 20$. While I expected additional cost, on an 8$ cost of the plate, perhaps come close to twice the price. Even that is high. What I have never seen is being billed for a specific dish that I was never asked would you like to make that a Sophies special? and then be billed and charged for a dish I never ordered - at 20$. A deceitful and unfortunate sort of practice. Just be straight up and say it, rather than this stupid trickery. Its not like if she would have asked me do I want that dish, Id probably have said sure. Its the unnecessary deceit. Disappointing.

Delicious cornflake crusted French toast and Irish coffee. There is also a tiny patio as well.

I had the worst experience. The menu was very limited and I had no good choice for brunch. Very bad service as well. Will never comeback again. By the way, there are way better options in the same neighborhood for brunch.

Have been here before and in the past really enjoyed it. The staff is still good but sadly the food ordered on this visit was not. They no longer have the Skillet dish that was on the online menu (offered a substitute with shrimp and asparagus that didn t sound appealing). As a result, I ordered the traditional breakfast plate with bacon, eggs, etc. I asked for the eggs to be done over easy and they arrived completely overcooked/ well done. I should have sent them back but was out with a friend and did want to delay her meal so just ate around them. The prices have also gone up from what appears on the online menu (website). If you like pancakes, they still looked to be fine (seeing them at another table). There are many other good breakfast places on Bayview so won t be returning.

Great little brunch spot with good service and quality food! We recommend! Dietary restrictions: Great for gluten free options Food : 5/5 |

Great food great service

Food so good

Delicious like always. And wonderful staff!

Good food with nice brunch vibe

One of the few places I would go back again when Im in the area. Intimate place but has a nice cheerful vibe. Staff was friendly and frittata was super enjoyable. Parking: Parking along the strip.

I have been here several times before, and have always enjoyed both the environment and the food. The staff was nice, however, the food this time around was very disappointing. We ordered the avocado toast and farmhouse fry skillet. The avocado toast was decent for the price, but the farmhouse fry skillet had uncooked bacon and sausage. I have never complained about food before, and normally I would just not return if I am disappointed with the food, however, I think uncooked meat is a health hazard and should have been addressed by the staff with more attention. While they waved the price for the farmhouse fry skillet, I am still appalled with the fact they actually served food with uncooked meat. I will unfortunately not be coming back here, which is a shame because I actually really enjoyed this place.

One of the best place to go for brunch. They are always packed and service was truly amazing. Food is worth the money. I will surely come back here. Friendly staff.

Just went to Tiarres for a family celebration. Anne Marie was fabulous. She made our event so special. The food was delicious, and the service incredible.Everything was perfect. Thank you for a great day

Was definitely expecting more, given the large number of good reviews.

I was there for a Barbie brunch, so I m not sure if the place was actually in charge of the food, but the omelette I had was really bland and over cooked. The salad and potatoes were good and my friends egg Benedict looked really good but mine wasn t. And then dessert came and I ordered a warm apple crumble with ice cream and the apple crumble was frozen solid in the middle and warm on the edges. That being said, food wasn t absolutely terrible, BUT I paid $50 for this and dessert wasn t included (additional charge).

I came back to Tiarrés as I love Sophies previously. This time around, we came for the pancakes, knowing how good they were previously and we were super disappointed. They were not only super dry but extremely overcooked and 1 even tasted burnt and we couldnt eat it. I did also have the eggs benny which was good. This may have been a fluke with the pancakes, as I was with a table of 6 and the restaurant was busy, but not planning to come back anytime soon for the pancakes, thats for sure. Service however was great, especially considering how busy they were. I highly recommend making a reservation (as we did) as they often have a 30-45 minute waitlist! Kid-friendliness: Love their kid menu and had a booster seat!

First time , food and service excellent.

I was here on Sunday for brunch. The place is absolutely gorgeous, at the same time not much seating space, but we were lucky enough to secure a table right away. I was super excited to try their lemon ricotta pancakes since I ve seen them in a few friends posts, but it was very disappointing experience. The pancakes are very thick for no reason, not fluffy or light, just though and rubbery. They looked amazing and we really had our mouths watering until we tried them, even if they were hard, if they had had some flavour in it, it would probably make a difference. The service was great, our server was so attentive and friendly. My daughter had the Salmon bennies and those were very tasty, as well as the side salad that comes with. I find it hard to recommend or give it another try, since it s not a cheap place and paid $20dlls for the worst pancakes in Toronto. Need to do better or probably the pancake cooker was not in for the day.

Great breakfast. Eggs Benny was delicious, avo toast with strawberries was tasty. Loved the sweet potato mixed in with regular potatoes. Avocado was fresh and tasty also. Cant forget to say thanks to Mitch. Service was amazing.

Enjoyed a nice brunch with a friend. Cute interior. Kid-friendliness: Theres items kids will enjoy but too tight seating inside. Food : 4/5 |

Came for high tea and I really recommend!! Food was great and the resto is so cute! Our server was so kind and attentive

Its cute and pretty

A shadow of its former self. The pancakes were alright, but were better previous times Ive been and the toast was burnt. There were alot of ants and flies around our table.

This is a bright and dreamy spot for brunch, the staff is nice and the food is really good. I had the avocado toast and a bowl of fruit, my pattered ordered the pancakes and she was in love with them. The prices are quite affordable, the menu variety is not to wide but it has enough options. I loved the decoration and the colors of the place, even the bathrooms are super cute. Totally coming back.

Delicious food (we went in for breakfast and had the farmhouse skillet fry...each), delightful decor, charming service. Highly recommended.

Excellent water and hot sauce! If you love food with no taste, I would 100% recommend this gorgeous place.

Little cute brunch spot in my neighborhood! Food was delicious and service was relatively fast. Will definitely go back.

Beautiful place for pictures, tasteless food. My friend and I had the hardest time swallowing the food and it was disappointing. Price was decent.

Food was worth the wait! We each got different plates and everything was delicious. Waited over 1.5 hours for a table, would recommend joining the virtual line on yelp before going. Especially on the weekend!

Nice little place for brunch. Price is reasonable, need to wait during lunch hour. Use Yelp app to be on waitlist. Nice twist on classic brunch items.

Food was tasteless, specially the sausage. I had to add too much ketchup and hot sauce to eat it. The staff was friendly and nice though.

I am not sure if it was an off day for this restaurant but it was underwhelming to put it nicely. The 2 stars is simply for the atmosphere and pleasant staff. I ordered Eggs Benedict and my friend ordered the skillet. The eggs were hard as a rock, the hollandaise was dry, and it was accompanied with literally only 8-10 tiny cubes of diced potatoes. The salad was ok. The skillet, which they said was like a poutine, also only had 8-10 tiny potato cubes and was all sauce and huge clumps of melted cheese. My friend barely touched it. This was a very disappointing experience.

Tasty food, fair prices. Great place to go for a brunch. The charcoal lemonade was worth trying as I had never tried something like that. The only thing I thought was weird was the avocado toast that my wife got was just half of an avocado sliced on top of a piece of toast with hummus and tomato and lacked the mashing of a traditional avocado toast. It still tasted good but was strange.

Nice place. However, food isnt good. Potatoes were not cooked properly and the eggs bennies lacked flavor. Disappointing after hearing such great things about Sophies

For the wait, it s not worth it. I had the omelette and a friend had the french toast- it lack luster. There are other great brunch places

Service was great and food was really delicious.

Horrible server experience. Had to keep asking our server, Keira, where our food was after noticing she was seating and serving various other tables who came after us. We ended up having to wave her down multiple times due to her avoiding our table. She was evasive each time we had asked. Ended up waiting for AN HOUR AND A HALF while we watched various tables come and go, all for French toast and eggs Benedict which unfortunately ended up coming to our table cold as if it was sitting out for a while. I am pretty sure the food would ve been good if it wasn t cold and a bit soggy worst server experience ever.

I absolutely loved this place. Food was great. Service was great. Price point great for the quality and I went early so didn t have to wait. However when I left there was a lineup. Always a good sign it there is one and you re not the one that had to wait!

Cute spot , average food

The place is nice. We went there with hopes to enjoy a breakfast on Father s Day. The food came in 35 minutes late without any remarks from the one assisting us. The serving portions were really poor & worst of All did not have any notable taste. Not recommended.

The old menu was better :(

I have never had such a horrendous and discriminatory brunch experience. When we first walked into the restaurant, my partner and I noticed we were the only people of colour there, which isn t the biggest surprise for Leaside, but the service that followed left us questioning if this was merely a coincidence. After waiting to be seated, a waiter points us to a table in an overflow patio in front of a different restaurant without walking us to that table. It should be noted it was the furthest table away from the restaurant itself and our conversation was constantly interrupted by people passing behind us to see if the other restaurant was open. Our waiter comes by shortly after and asks us to order our drinks and food all at once before we really had time to browse the menu. When she took the menus away it was clear the table itself was wet from the rain, but no one offered to wipe it down. The waiter came back later with one order of pancakes and a plate of bacon. My partner and I had each ordered a side of bacon but the restaurant could not be bothered to put it on two different plates nor tell us that the plate was to be shared until much later. We were also told that my partners plate of pancakes would be right out. Five minutes later the waiter comes back and tells us the other plate of pancakes was going to take a while to come out and we should just share the first plate until they do. No apology or explanation was given. The assumption that we would simply be comfortable sharing each other s food was appalling in itself and insulting that we should have to share one plate to make up for their mistake which they failed to acknowledge. The second plate of pancakes came out about 15 minutes after the first, so naturally one of us had to eat cold pancakes. We weren t even halfway through the meal when the waiter comes by not to check on us but to ask if she could wrap us up and give us our bill. Overall there was a clear feeling that we were an afterthought and an inconvenience to the waitstaff simply by deciding to eat there. It would have been different if there was an acknowledgment of the poor service we received but it seemed like providing us with bare minimal service was the best that they could do.

The cook this morning was not wearing a mask (a mingle mask is a thin piece of plastic over the mouth and does not cover the nose, this is not suitable PPE) and was making loud screaming noises at 930 am.(Sat July 24 2021). We used to adore this brunch place and I was very hesitant to post a bad review amidst a pandemic but the potatoes were raw, we received 1 piece of toast with breakfast, poached eggs were cold and tasted of vinegar, salad was old and black on both our plates, there was dust on one half side of my partners meal and they didnt bother to clean the plate before serving, hair in the corner of where we sat inside. The server did not do a quality check on the food; we waved down another server for the raw potatoes and there was no apology- just another bowl of sad potatoes. When we paid and tipped the server we had to tear our own receipt and leave. The restaurant had only one other table inside and about 6 on the patio- considerably quiet for the typical bayview weekend brunch rush. We will not be returning.

I was so ready to love this place, but the nearly hour long wait for lacklustre food made this really disappointing.

This place is very dirty also food was horrible cold I would never recommend please do t waste your time we didn t even finished our breakfast disgusting food.

Went on a Monday for brunch. Ignored by our waitress. Waited 15 minutes for water, another 20 to order, food came and order was incorrect after we repeated several times. Told them correct order and still got it wrong. Had to settle for something we didnt order. Portions and food was meh. Had to ask for cutlery. So - meh food, poor experience. Wouldnt reco - not worth the wait or price. Place has gone way downhill since it opened.

Have had food here several times in the past, and have always a liked it. The experience this time was not good. I had ordered French toast and noticed they had mixed fresh strawberries with some old batch . We felt the same with eggs benediction we had ordered .We felt, the potatoes that were served were old and fresh ones mixed.The consistent taste of potatoes was missing.

What a disappointment.

Nice place for brunch with good menu items although the portion size was smaller than expected for the price. French toast was very delicious and the lemonosa was a nice treat! Was a bit disappointed though that the menu online hasnt been updated as there were a couple of items we really wanted to try.

Not good food and super dirty, not coming back

I don t even really know where to start First they have a wait list and took someone who walked in before us, then the servers never table touch and had no water for basically the whole breakfast. Over priced food and really bad service would highly recommend staying away unless you are purely going to take a picture of food. I reset my google account password just to write this review and warn you not to ruin your Sunday morning at this place

Nice little place for brunch. First time eating there and wanted to go to a nice place with friends visiting from out of town. We lucked out and didnt have to wait long (15mins) for a table of 6. Unfortunately it was sweltering inside and uncomfortably hot. Wasnt sure if that was normal or the AC was broken. It was a hot day and when we left and went outside to the street, it felt about 10 degrees cooler outside. Anyways, the food was good. Decent portion in my Greek yogurt bowl and peameal eggs benny. Not enough home fries but everything tasted good. Service was good and the restaurant was busy.

It was nice looking brunch spot. Food is very bland and service is ok but needs more work. The smoke salmon eggs benny is more of just eggs benny. They mix up our orders and waited long time if we ask something from the servers.

This was my first time at Sophies with my friends. The restaurant was very busy with a long waitlist but I read really great reviews about their brunch so wanted to give it a try. The servers were friendly but we waited for almost an hour for our food, which was unacceptable for dishes that are so simple to make. We assumed our order was forgotten because they only came after we reminded a server about our food 40mins later. And when it came, our food was served to the wrong table so they had to make our dishes again in the kitchen. We ordered a Sophies breakfast and two Eggs Bennington (peameal bacon and smoked salmon), and I dont think it was worth the wait. Will brunch elsewhere in the future.

Waiting half an hour to be ordered, even you asked the waitress twice We are ready to order , she just was very busy in and out , thinking you as air; then waiting another 40 minutes to get your dish as very very busy kitchen

I was eating my salad and as I took a bite I noticed I had bit into something hard to then notice it was a stick. I lost my appetite after that, as it left a gross taste and texture in my mouth. I told the waitress and they did nothing about it, no taking it off the bill or anything. Wouldve been more understanding if they compensated somehow. Completely disgusting I will never go back.

Not a great experience overall. Ill say that the food tasted okay, but it is pricier than youd expect given its average quality. The only good thing I can say about this place is that our waitress was really friendly and the service was fine. The reason for this negative review is because the establishment seems neglected. Some of the patio tables wobble uncontrollably, so much so that the top part of the table we were seated at seemed like it was at risk of falling off. I brought this to the attention of the waitresses and we were moved to another table. We were told that some tables were missing screws which is why they wobbled. Not sure why the owner hasnt looked into this yet given that the waitresses had mentioned that this is a known issue. This is an accident waiting to happen. Theres also a side patio thats in front of what looks like a closed restaurant with dead flowers next door. Not sure why they bother seating guests here, it feels like youre in a different restaurant altogether. Didnt seem like there was enough staff so the waitresses had to run around with their hands full constantly. There are much better brunch spots around the city, I would not recommend this establishment to anyone, nor would I return.

Fabulous food! The skillet with chorizo, perfectly au gratin was out of this world. My friend ordered the bennies with salmon that are next on my list. They got very good reviews. A special mention to their reservation system with an iPad and texts when your table is ready. It greatly improves the experience. Its never fun to have to stand in front of the door. Instead, we explored the neighborhood. Great service too.

Great place to grab breakfast or brunch, some amazing mimosas and the vegetarian options are stellar. I have recently been enjoying the Spinach Eggs Benedict, and I strongly recommend it!

Good food and good coffee! I went there on a Sunday morning with a reservation on Yelp. The reservation actually took quite long but it was okay. We were strolling around the neighborhood. It was supposed to be a 5-star review but I decided to do 3-star because it is an open kitchen there. The chef/staff kept banging dishes and pots in the sink which was quite disturbing to customers sitting right close to it. Perhaps sitting at the patio(or front door) will avoid this problem.

Food is really good and servers very pleasant. Felt like a long wait for the food but if you have the time, its very enjoyable.

My mother and I were looking for a breakfast spot near her place and I honestly picked this place for the name (its also my daughters) but it did not disappoint! The place is visually beautiful and welcoming. The staff are nice and attentive. The coffee is bottomless and most importantly the food was delicious! The portions were generous and the prices were fair for the quality and amount. I had the Sophies classic breakfast and it was fresh, filling and tasty. My mother got the Eggs Benedict and was also very happy with her meal. The eggs are fresh with golden yolks, the home fries are crispy and soft on the inside and the bacon was perfect. Will make this a regular spot for us and love supporting great local businesses.

Decided to try this place for the first time because of all the online posts and reviews but the overall experience was very disappointing. First we added ourselves to the wait list after we arrived and we re told the wait is about an hour. We didn t get a table for roughly an hour and 45 minutes. This is a small place and very busy but that is not an excuse for the super slow service we received. The food was also very mediocre. The pancakes were undercooked and the potatoes were really over cooked. Don t even get me started on what they call avocado toast. Huge disappointment!!!

You go here for the food, service was meh. Always a line up but Blueberry Ricotta Pancakes. Nothing more to be said Food : 5/5

Ive been to Sophies about 5 or 6 times now. Always an amazing plate. and their different teas are soooo good! ...on the wknd, expect to wait in line. Everybody wants their food. Delicious!!

Egg Benedict is very delicious, the service is nice too. Also we have been offered a lemon cake Lucky us :)

Limited menu options and horrible service.

Have been wanting to try Sophies for a while (especially the pancakes) and the food was lovely. However, I was a little surprised by a few things. We were a table of four adults and two babies, and were told that because we were a a party of six we would be charged an 18% tip. Then, the person taking care of our table pushed me more than once to order something off the kids menu for my eight-month-old infant, even though I explained she couldnt really eat anything off the menu. She also kept saying because you guys are such a large party. Towards the end, I did feel a little weird about coming with my baby.

Bad

Alayna? more like big time complaina....shaddup

Food is ok, just kinda average brunch stuff despite the more elevated depiction on the menu. French toast was pretty dry. Almost as if it was just barely dipped in the egg batter as opposed to soaking in it. Service was friendly enough, but I was inexplicably served my meal much earlier than the other 2 in my party leaving me the option of finishing my meal before everyone else or waiting for the other dishes to arrive and eating a cold brunch. Obviously not ideal.

We have lived in the neighbourhood for over 6 years. Finally gave this place a try. Service was slow and generally poor. Food was not good. A chain restaurant would have been more value. Never again.

Such a cute spot! Clean, very friendly staff and delicious food! Love the all-day breakfast options and their breakfast potatoes are amazing!!!!
