Excellent breakfast omelette for excellent value. The couple who run the place are very kind and lovely to chat with if there’s time. Decor is a bit dated but don’t let that put you off from this hidden gem.
Visiting BC from Toronto.. Ontario & found this gem on Google maps, the food is tasty & valualed at a great price ! The staff are also very friendly & talkative, i highly recommended visiting this place !!
Classic bakery/cafe feel. I arrived at the kitchen was closing, so I grabbed a muffin which was tasty. The staff was very friendly. Would be a nice place to enjoy a long cuppa and chat with people coming and going.
Great food, quick and friendly service. Would come back again for sure. Nice little diner with typical diner breakfast options. We spent about $11/person. Ham and cheese omelette had lots of cheese and even the hash browns had a nice layer of crispy cheese.
Great local diner with one of the best breakfasts I have had in the entire Okanagan valley - and one of the most affordable too. I was day dreaming about the hashbrowns for days afterwards. The local couple that was running it were lovely and very friendly. Well worth the visit to support local business and get a great breakfast.
the food and prices are very good. the service and hospitality is exceptional. memorable even. This will officially be one of our goto restaurants!
Mug N Muffin is my 102nd eatery here in Vernon. I have never been here before. It is interesting to note I worked one block away from this restaurant for six years, but never ate here. I ordered the veggie omelette which included hashbrowns, brown toast, and a drink for $12.02 after taxes. Good luck finding a deal like that anywhere in town. I was amazed how big the plate was and that the hashbrowns are smothered in cheese. Finally, a place in Vernon makes proper hashbrowns. All hashbrowns should include cheese. There are a lot of Montreal Canadiens memorabilia as the owner's husband is a fan of the team. The owner herself has been running this place for sixteen years. She is extremely friendly and is an excellent conversationalist. She is hilarious if she has a free moment to talk to you. Nearly all customers come here during the morning given the neighbourhood's demographic. I was here at 1:30 and was the only customer inside for the next 45 minutes. The meal was delicious and I was absolutely full. The omelette and the hashbrowns were major highlights. I appreciated the music playing too. They also offer several condiments to put on your hashbrowns, omelette, or toast. My 102nd eatery is complete, and I will be back here soon.
Always love the food and the community here, most welcoming cafe easily in Vernon. Always feel like one of the family. Great job Barb and Al The portion sizes are also amazing, especially for the price
Food was delicious, service was even better 10/10 recommend
Such a great place good food friendly people definitely going to be a spot I return to frequently
Home cooked meals. FAMILY owned and operated. Dam, the best food and prices.
I dont know how Ive missed this gem over the years! The food is great, cooked to order, and the owners are wonderful people who truly care about their customers - whether youre a regular or not
Such a great little spot. Incredibly friendly owners, amazing food too. Much thanks to Barb and Al. We will be back. Kid-friendliness: They love kids here. Our family feels like were part of theirs.

Great food and the staff are so so nice
Very cozy place. Great coffee, delicious pancakes and very friendly owners. Thank you very much for such a great breakfast!
Whenever im in town for a visit. I always come here. Al and Barb are literally the stars and unsung heroes of Vernons all day breakfast. Love from the GVRD.
The restaurant reeks of cigarettes as soon as you open the door, walked out right away!
Walked in, the place smelled entirely of old cigarettes and old fry oil. Did an immediate 180°.
Nice quiet yet busy place to enjoy while in the Okanagan
Barb and Al are as sweet as the pie they are serving!
The owners Barb and Al are so lovely and make this little diner a must-try! The meals are simple, delicious, and cheap! One feels transported back to the 80s in here!
Eat breakfast here every week Vegetarian options: Yes Food : 5/5 |
The service was great and lady working there had such a positive attitude and was super kind. The man constantly checked up on us and was very kinda as well. The food was amazing and the pancakes were very delicious and super light and fluffy. Prices were cheap and weren t over the top. Will defiantly come back again soon!
It s a hidden gem. Old school, simple restaurant with good quality food.
Incredible. Only been here once and will definitely be back. Amazing service from the owners, incredible food and some of the best prices Ive ever seen.
Its a really nice peace place. Food is excellent
Best breakfast in the Okanagan! Super neat mom and pop restaurant with personal service. A true diamond in the rough.
Great place to go for breakfast the service is amazing and the people who run it are just awesome. I highly recommend going here if you havent already
No frills classic diner. Good food, good price, good service!
The Mug & Muffin is my go-to place for breakfast. Its ecomical, Its good, and its cozy and friendly. Barb and Al are so welcoming, relaxed, humorous, and down to earth. She proudly remembers the usual for dozens of her customers! This is my small town breakfast comfort place. And yes, the muffins and cinnamon rolls are incredible! So glad I discovered this great little cafe! Love it! Parking: Theres lots of parking nearby and some of it is free. Wheelchair accessibility: There is an entry ramp.
Great people good value
Great little Mom and Pop run restaurant.. I had the Ham and Cheese omelette. It was awesome. Huge amount of food for under $10... I highly recommend stopping in for a bite..
A very special place
super old decor from the 80s, place has no changed in 40 years. no one goes for the decor. great food and made with love. iconic local place
i used to come here all the time when i was a kid! I have egg allergies so they would always make me special pancakes :)
Very friendly place. My hubby and l shared a clubhouse. It was good
Great Food Great service Great Atmosphere Food : 5/5
Popped in for brunch with our family on our stay in Vernon. Soo happy that we did! The owners - husband and wife - were the only staff working and they took care of us so well! Hands down best service we have had in a very long time! The food was amazing and the prices were soo reasonable! Our kids loved it and had so much fun chatting with the owners. Would definitely come back to visit them and have another great meal!
Amazing!! Barb and Al are so friendly and make the experience so homely. A local spot that is absolutely worth a visit if you re in the area. The food is delicious, and you get a lot for the cost. Very comfortable and friendly atmosphere. :)
Great place to get a good breakfast for a damn reasonable price, good for lunch as well. If you want to support a good mom and pop place, this is one to visit and enjoy
Hands down the best breakfast you can get in Vernon. Huge serving size, fresh ingredients, incredible taste, friendly & welcoming owners. The prices are unbeatable. You have to try the Mug & Muffin!
Best couple I ever knew, thanks Barb and Al for your excellent service
Fabulous food excellent service
Barb and Al treat us, my boyfriend and I, like family when we are there. They always remember that I dont like onions, and that I usually get the mini breakfast. We get great service and big .
Took really good care of me! Will definitely be back.
Great food good prices terrific service
Great service, cozy atmosphere
Great little place!
Dont let their Gruff exterior fool you both of the Proprietors of this restaurant are sweethearts care of the world for their customers. They serve piping hot meals carefully prepared and lovingly plated. Youll be happy and sure to cherish memories with and of your meal here.
Excellent service, great breakfast, highly recommend.
Place is great same prices as years ago and food taste good, they aint using inflation to up their prices like everyone else
Tasty food, freshly made and very nice people!
They serve a tasty, fast, basic breakfast. Prices are great. Staff are kind. Have been here twice and it seems consistent so far.
Great little breakfast place. Friendly staff running it and great food.
My husband and I ate here today and we will definitely be coming back when in the area! The interior of the restaurant leaves much to be desired, but the food is amazing, reasonably priced, and it felt like we were having breakfast at our grandparents/parents house. The owners are so sweet, we adored them. Definitely come here if you want to support a kind, family owned business!
We came to this restaurant because we wanted to support smaller business. The food was amazing!! They give huge portions for an extremely low price. The quality of food was just as great as their service. We will definitely be coming back!
Really good muffins and tarts. The lady there was so nice and amazing. I could really tell she was very proud and loved the items she had baked that day. Usually there is an assortment of what she feels like baking. Its a little hard to find (or at least it was for me), and dont let the look of it deter you. Its an amazing place with a lot of soul!
Awesome food staff is great, just like grandma used to make.
Fantastic breakfast place! My husband and I went there on a whim and it did not disappoint. Delicious food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere! The owners are lovely and we really enjoyed our meal. We will be sure to go again whenever were in the area. Bonus points for being baby friendly!
Best Mom n Pop place in Vernon! Seriously, the owners are some of the kindest people around. The food is extremely reasonably priced, and extremely delicious! I live in Kamloops and Im still going to try and get back to this place as often as possible!
Al and Barb are true gems. They are what make the Mug n Muffin great. And great it is! Super friendly coupled with excellent food like Grandma used to make equals an experience that is always delightful. Good people. Great food. Clean. Well maintained and large washrooms. Bravo! I m hooked!
Very enjoyable breakfast made with love! As a business owner myself I can tell the difference when an owner puts their soul into something. The second you walk into the door you feel the appreciation and care that they feel for you just by coming in to their restaurant. Coffee hot, breakfast excellent! I will go back.
We go there so we can have a home cooked breakfast and a nice cup of coffee. Its always clean and the service is fast. Everyone always seems happy when there in there. Wheelchair accessibility: Nice and open flat door way to get and lots of room to get around tables in a wheel chair.
Lovely place for breakfast to go (in our case). Owners are sweet and made our sandwiches with love! Check it out some time!
Such a good service, made me feel welcome with the first step I was in. Even I was a little late (2.40) they went the extra step to make the best pancakes! They make them on request so fresh and warm served! Would recommend to go here!
Always get the small pancake breakfast. Very good. One of the remaining ma and pa restaurants. Much better than the big chain stores.
Wonderful, absolutely wonderful. Mining camp food couldnt even be better. With a touch of family. Price is more than fair. This place brings back childhood memories and Im 60.
Great food and service. Just remembered about the Mug N Muffin. Had forgotten about it when wondering about where to go for a quick brunch. Forgot that the portion sizing is filling. I should have had the half size portion. Excellent.
We are new in Vernon and this had been the best service we ve received by far! Barb and Al are lovely. Will try to come back at least once a week!!
Come for breakfast, stay for the fantastic hospitality! Will be back, often!!
Always friendly, always good and the prices are great. Ill be back soon!
Super rare little find, a place you can walk in and be treated with the warmth of family. Good home cooking style food, fresh made soups, sandwiches, baked goods and more. Yum!
Great food, great service and great prices!
Great little restaurant. The owners are super friendly people who make a good meal for a fair price. Definitely a recommendation!
Absolutely amazing. Very quaint local diner run by a sweet couple. Absolutely LOVED how welcoming they were and made us feel like part of the family. You both were so sweet and will forever have a home in my heart
Tried to go to the competition down the block today around 11:30, but the lineup was too long. We took a chance on Mug n Muffin instead, and man are we glad we did. A lovely little place with a great atmosphere run by two delightful people. Ate a delicious brunch that was served crazy fast. On the way out, what I presume was the owners (definitely the cook and server) were extra gracious. The prices were superb! We will be back every time we come to Vernon from now on, and will be recommending this business to anyone who asks. 10/10 Try it!
Absolutely loved this sweet little place and it s owner/operators. Most amazing breakfast I ve had in a long time. Best bacon and just a good home cooked meal. I highly suggest it when you need some love and a full belly.
Great lil quite spot very friendly atmosphere.
My favorite breakfast spot in town, awesome customer service and great food that reminds me of home
Was a great breakfast
They were closing in 30 mins, so called on our way there to ask if they could still serve us a full breakfast. They said Absolutely! The home-cooked breakfast in a small hidden restaurant, owned and operated by charming couple, was exactly what we were looking for. The fully loaded western omelette was a amazing! We will be back many times.
My secret hide out i love the owners and there hab fans
This is a great mom and pop restaurant. I love bringing my family there for breakfast.
Best hashbrowns ive ever had. Staff was wonderful and friendly. Will come again next time we are in vernon
Nice staff, and good food. A gem in Vernon to say the least.
Excellent choice! Amazing quality food and the service was very warm and friendly. Barb and Al were so gracious.
Cute little diner! The owners are very sweet. The food was very good. I would recommend the pancakes, they were fluffy and exactly how a grandmother would make them! The strawberry French toast was also another favourite and very delicious.
Best place ever to eat.
This is the best sample of a hard working family business. Super friendly and kind
Really amazing coffee and fun, kind, light hearted staff. The photos on the wall tell an incredible story and its worth it to stay for a meal. If you take coffee to go you can even come back for free refills anytime later in the day as long as you have the cup!
Friendly,clean.Good value and well cooked meals.Kids love the French toast and strawberries.
Fantastic food Barbs the best
Great place warm and friendly
Friendly staff but my friend did have a long hair in his salad. He did not tell them so cant say they didnt/wouldnt rectify it.

Nothing special!!!
Al and Barb offer amazing service as well are great people to chat to while you sit down for a coffee or they re 5 star French toast and delicious burgers. Excellent prices Exceptional food Entertaining and very good service

Barb an Al are awesome! Excellent service every time I go there. They treat all their customers like family.
Good breakfast cooked to order by an elderly couple who surely treat you like family. My kids are still raving about going back there. (They are 14, 6 and 4) Cost $45 for 5 of us and no complaints from any of us.
Always great food and friendly service. Very cozy atmosphere.
Reasonable priced mom and pop diner serving up tasty home cooked meals. Dined for breakfast and had great service even though place was quite busy. Lots of coffee refills, decent sized portions and nice clean establishment. Will return.

Good simple food. Clean and friendly

The owners are spectacular I took my elderly mom there and the owner spent most of the time we were there shoveling ice so we would have no problem getting back to our car!
Great owners. Good food. Feels cozy.

Amazing local gem owned and operated by the sweetest owners. Barb and Al run the show at this classic home-style diner. Breakfast, lunch, and baked goods are all delicious. From the heart!
Ive lived in Vernon my entire life - I cant believe I never came here until today! This place is the kitchy diner of my dreams. The couple that operates it are so wonderful. Lots of regulars and friends meeting and sharing stories. I actually put my phone away and enjoyed the ambience and the pleasant chit chat happening around me. Breakfast was standard diner fair, but not greasy at all. Ill be back!
Quaintest little restaurant nestled in Vernon. Run by a very nice man and his wife. Great fresh-made goods, highly recommend if you are looking for something outside the norm!
Good food, great prices and ran by a great couple. Come here every week.
Its the best place in vernon
Ive eaten at the Mug n Muffin for years. Reasonably priced good food from a down home menu. Its like eating in your best friends kitchen.
