DISAPPOINTED: We had breakfast at the Captain’s Gallery Room on Saturday, November 2. I ordered the “Cruiser” breakfast. My fried eggs were both undercooked and overcooked - runny whites and burnt edges.
The pork fritter was very good. I took a chance ordering this item because when I asked the server to describe the pork fritter, she replied “it’s hard to explain.” To help all you Google Reviewers, the pork fritter is not your usual ball-shaped fritter. It is a flat breaded pork cutlet that is deep fried and then smothered in sausage gravy.
The raisin toast was made from high-quality bread, which I assume was made in their bakery. It would have been delicious if it was served hot – or at least warm – instead of being served cold.
My wife ordered a waffle and pork sausage links. The sausage links were served hot; and were flavorful and delicious.
The waffle that was as thin as a pancake, was soft, gummy and served cold. Upon ordering, my wife told the server that she wanted her waffle hot off the iron, and to serve it to her even if my food was not ready. She asked for her waffle to be re-made. She specifically said that she wanted a waffle that was crispy on the outside with an airy and soft center – the way a good waffle should be made. The second waffle arrived with exactly the same texture as the first one but this one was way overcooked with burnt areas – although it was served hot. She ate one bite and told the server that it was inedible.
And this is why I am writing the negative review. The waffle was on our bill. The same server was checking us out and we reiterated our dissatisfaction with the waffle that my wife did not eat, and asked for it to be removed from our bill. The server went into the kitchen to speak to someone. She returned to tell us that she could not remove the waffle charge from our bill.
Since we often visit a family member in an assisted living facility nearby, I am using this forum to ask for other breakfast restaurants and restaurant suggestions in the vicinity.
Thank you in advance for any...
   Read moreWhile staying in Algoma we visited here for breakfast, and what a wonderful breakfast it was! The coffee was good, the breakfast was great and fast, and the service was outstanding. I'm not sure if it's a permanent thing, but they did not take cards, so it was only cash payment, but there was an ATM right there in the restaurant, so there was no issue. The decor was very cute. If we come back to Algoma we will definitely be eating here again. I highly recommend...

Add your bank fees into that and your ten dollar meal just cost you another 40 percent. Unacceptable in today's market to not have a Square account for small business. Increase your prices by ten percent and get...
