East Side Diner — Restaurant in Welland

Meh I've definitely had better. I went this week with two friends. I had the eggs, ham, home fries and coffee. The positives: Cute decor, clean, good coffee, eggs and toast. I like the TV too. Negatives: Home fries had no flavour and came with just a bunch of pepper on them. I left them all as did one of my friends who also had the breakfast. Ham was overcooked and dried-out. The server was efficient but not friendly, and somewhat standoffish ( in her defence I'd probably be like that serving people all day too). The thing that surprised me was to see on the menu, they charge you $1.00 if you want tomato slice. Really????? Ridiculous in my opinion. This was my third visit but I'm still not impressed with the quality or prices they charge especially for this area. MY bill came to over $10.00 before tip. Mediocre place for that price. I won't be back. Also interesting to note, some of the reviews by other people you see on this Google site are for the former restaurant that was there (Carol's Cafe) and not for East Side Diner. East Side has only been at this location for a few months. You'll see some of the reviews on there are from over a year ago, so kind of sneaky really, as it looks like ALL the raving reviews are for East Side Diner, but...

Best breakfast in town. Exactly everything you could want from a breakfast diner, from 50's decor to the general atmosphere, everything has just such a great feel. The service is always top notch, very kind, and VERY speedy. I've never waited more then 5 minutes for my meal to arrive.

The Big Bopper breakfast is the perfect amount, especially if you have a special someone to share your french toast or pancakes with. The coffee is always just the right temperature, and the sausages... Oh boy the sausages. You won't find a better breakfast sausage anywhere. A perfect snap when you bite into it, simply perfection.

To hit it all home, the price is simply unbeatable. The fact that someone gave this restaurant a 1 star because they were upset they had to use the ATM they provide is an absolute injustice. Some people just want to whine where everyone can hear them, but don't let that stop you from enjoying one of the best breakfast experiences Welland...

I give it a 2 because we had to come back a different day to try this restaurant out. This restaurant’s google page says it is wheelchair accessible. We went with my walker and didn’t bring my cane. This time we had to leave with empty stomach’s.

Today when we went my intent was to enjoy the food and take pictures of the entry way as I was unable on google to make a suggestion as to their accessibility level. The food was good quality poached eggs were soft and runny and the servers were nice. Things outstanding but you don’t always need outstanding to have a nice meal. so please fix the google page before other people who have accessibility needs are misinformed. I forgot to take photos unfortunately but hopefully this will be enough for them to change their...
