Barn Restaurant

We were pulled in by a cute sign on the window advertising poutine for 6 dollars. When we walked in we were greeted and served by a sweet sweet lady.
As for the poutine; It was was a big portion that filled 2 of us. Only down side, they didn’t use cheese curds, but there was ample gravy and shredded cheese. The fries were crispy, thus achieving a perfectly balanced texture.
When we went to pay the man doing all the cooking started chatting with us and we found out about their breakfast. So the next day we went and had a typical Canadian breakfast of eggs, sausage, bacon, home fries, toast and coffee. It was really yummy and really filling.
The inside of the restaurant does feel like a barn (wooden beams), and perhaps could use some renovations, but the service and food was great. They seemed to know what many of the customers wanted when they entered even before being seated, regulars I guess. (Some of the people there were a little sketch, but most were pretty normal people — so don’t get weirded out). Maybe thats why this place was so good, it felt like you were eating at a small breakfast inn out in the country where they know you cause you live 2 houses down from them. Truly a slice of peace and nice caring staff in the city.

Here’s the Real Deal on this place.
Ok The Barn has been open since 1971.
Same owners since 1971. This place makes the best old school Bacon and eggs for under six bucks in the city. This place opens at 10 am or just before pretty well 365 days a year. This is a Queen street west regular breakfast place. He does your typical greasy spoon menu. The club houses are made with fresh turkey breast twice a week. The chicken fingers are to die for, and he has one hell of a gravy with fries.
Take Out is a bonus there. The place does get some interesting characters in there. So don’t let that stop you because the food is worth it. Try the burgers cooked the same way like the did in 1971.
Table service yes. This is a great breakfast place nothing fancy but the food is always good. Myself I’ve been going there for about 25 years and never had a bad breakfast
That’s the Real Deal on this place and remember the food is worth the time.
Still open still awesome 2015
