Roberto Bruder Aguiar

out of this world! If you’re not sure if you should wait in line or not, WAIT! It’s extremely worth it. The best I had coming 2 days in a row was whatever you select with their pork belly . Amazing!

Jim Porter

This is one of the best breakfast spots . Staff extremely friendly and the food is amazing. Had the three pigs , sausage dipped in pancake batter then deep fried.

Kimberly Murrell-Hébert

Amazing food and service. A bit of a wait like 30 min Sat am but well worth it. We enjoyed it so much. A lot of food so come hungry!!

Jessica

Huge line ups.... But totally worth it!!! They really have a strong brunch game on, and this place is a must visit when you're in Victoria

The Chicken French Toast and Red Velvet pancakes are delicious. If you want the Charlie Bowl , get the half bowl as the portions are huge.

Ada Juristovski

Order the green eggs and ham . The goat cheese melts and swirls with the pesto and it is a breakfast party in your mouth. Then ask for a side of jam for your biscuit and end on a sweet note!

Angela Liberty Ochsner

Eggs Beni were fabulous. So are the juices and the whole place has a vibrant atmosphere. Lining up was worth it!

Starskreem T

If you are craving a traditional breakfast and protein for your morning meal, go for the Chicken French Toast . You'll wolf it down in no time.

Marie-Adeline Sekula

If two of you want a milkshake , just get one and share it. 1) they are huge 2) they bring you more in a different cup

Everything looks good. I had the bowl it was intense. I want to go back for the French toast . Expect a line

Try the Fernando. Ask for it dick-shaped. They will accomodate. Super popular spot, expect to wait in line a while. Worth it.

There is no diet pop or any other sugar-free drink on the menu. If you have diabetes you're out of luck as far as drinks go.
