Wait's on Nelson was awesome. The waiter we had by the name of Tom was courteous, served us quickly and was knowledgeable with the menu. He ran the diner as if he owned it! Worker's like him are hard to find and I totally recommend the diner if you're ever in Nelson! Quality food, quality service from Tom, what more do you want!

Great food, atmosphere and service! I liked how we were able to really customize exactly what we wanted for breakfast with such a flexible menu. Everything was delicious and overall we were impressed and would eat here again. I also tried a peanut butter square that was absolutely delicious!

Best place to grab breakfast in town and it's affordable. My family and I enjoy coming here not just for the food but the service too. The servers are awsome and always have a smile on and happy to help.

Came with my 6 year old son and ordered the mac and cheese for him and the Montreal smoked meat sandwich for me. The food was sooo tasty but the Mac and cheese was the real star! My son loved all the vintage decor. We will be back every time we visit Nelson. Staff were very friendly and great service. Definitely a favorite of ours :)

Amazing breakfast! Stopped for breakfast while passing through. Homemade jams, bakery if not homemade breads, homemade bakery goods. Amazing service, homey atmosphere. Inexpensive too; spent less than $50 on two breakfasts, a bakery good and a huge tip. Will be my go-to breakfast joint whenever I’m in town.

Delicious brunch for a reasonable price. So glad we chose this out of all the options. Great eggs Benedict and loved the potatoes. A local spot with nice staff and a relaxing atmosphere.

This is a bit of a retro diner! You walk in and it's like your back in a small town where everyone is friendly and knows everyone. The food was great we had a little bit of a wait for our food but the atmosphere is friendly and just feels relaxing

Very cute diner! Its cozy and colorful with a lot of personality! Service was fantastic, and I like the little details like a chalk corner for kids to draw on the walls. The food was good, pretty classic diner food but I did love the corned beef that they make. It was DELICIOUS and also nice to have a breakfast option that isn't pork based. Most diners dont have that! And prices were really reasonable! Cheaper than a lot of other places we stopped at.

I don't know why I have never stopped in here to eat. This is a cute little restaurants in Nelson BC and it has a wide variety of menu items to choose from. I decided on eating the biggest breakfast they could offer anybody and hands down it was so good. I don't normally like sausage but it was really really good besides the pancakes that were plentiful. If I could change anything I think it would just be the workers be more attentive to people wanting to order. Or maybe it's just me. But overall this is a great 50 Styles kind of restaurant with some of the older stuff memorabilia that you haven't seen in a long time if you're my age serious thank you I will definitely be back.
