I had a great time at Times Square Diner! The food was excellent, service could have been better. Sat down right away, got coffee then ordered shortly after that. However, our server never came around to refill our coffee or water - we always had to track him down. Tables beside and behind us got refills but ours didn’t… Besides that, the food was excellent! I got my home fries well done because I like them extra crispy, and they were cooked perfectly! The pancakes were soft and fluffy, very light and delicious. The breakfast here is amazing, looking forward to going back.

I first discovered this diner back in high school (I went to mackenzie). It became the spot me and my friends would go to for lunch and we always ordered the poutine. Years later, I still find myself coming back every now and then, and it’s just as welcoming as it always was. The food is consistently great, the atmosphere feels familiar and comforting. I usually order the burgers (super juicy) and the poutine. If you’re looking for good food, good vibes, and the friendliest service..Highly recommend. 🫶

I pass this diner multiple times a week while driving as I love just down the road. I finally decided to stop in here for breakfast and did not regret it! The service was amazing. The head chef was friendly and chatty and the server was also courteous, friendly and loved to talk. The environment is great, it’s a real throwback to a 80’s diner. My one regret is that I didn’t sit in one of the bar seats like a true old school diner. Next time I plan to. The food was good. The bacon slices were a great size and thick. The sausages were tasty. The eggs were cooked as I ordered them and the home fries were incredible. It’s hard to mess up breakfast food and Time Square Diner did not mess this up. I felt the price was slightly high for what was offered especially with it just being a standard bacon, egg and sausage breakfast. But you’re definitely not breaking the bank at this spot I definitely plan on going back and would love to try their other breakfast options.
