What to Order
The Gold Standard Sandwich
This is the signature breakfast sandwich, often described as "with the works," featuring fluffy eggs, crispy bacon, sharp cheddar, and a hint of spicy aioli, served on an English muffin.
"If I could marry a breakfast sandwich, it would be the Gold Standard Breakfast Sandwich from this place. Honestly, after a fun night that involved too many drinks, this sandwich is my emergency contact. It is straight-up FIRE! 🔥"
Elaine Ko

"Absolutely delicious smash burgers (single or double patties) , breakfast sandwichs and a few other items."

Kale and Bacon (on a breakfast sandwich)
This specific combination on a breakfast sandwich, often on an English muffin, is highlighted as a standout flavor pairing.
"Kale and Bacon on an breakfast sandwich (English Muffin) has got to be one of the best things I’ve ever tasted, the burgers are good here too"
Fyodorchrome
The Alternative (Breakfast Sandwich)
This breakfast sandwich is noted for having a more complex and satisfying flavor profile due to its various fillings.
"I personally thought The Alternative was a lot tastier than the Gold Standard sandwich since it had a bit more going on with all the fillings."

Inside Scoop
- This is primarily a takeout window with very limited seating, so plan to eat on the go or at nearby outdoor tables.
- If you're a dog owner, the window ordering is convenient as you don't have to leave your pet unattended.
- Weekdays between 9:30 AM and 10 AM are ideal for quicker service, as wait times can increase outside of these hours.
- For more seating options, Reunion Coffee is right next door and shares outdoor tables.
- Some reviewers have noted inconsistent quality compared to their other location on Queen Street.
