Sitting on the border of Eglinton Village and Y&E, Meggie's All Day Breakfast is busy with executive breakfast meetings during the weekdays and the brunch crowd on the weekends.

UPDATE: MEGGIE'S IS NOW CLOSED

Their meals are reasonably priced, are big servings, includes unlimited coffee or tea, comes with fruit and of course are, very, very tasty. Not very many places offer all of that for one price.

We enter the door and pick up a few of the day's papers sitting on the table by the door. The place is not too busy at nine in the morning so the owners tell us to choose the table of choice. After seating ourselves, we are quickly offered coffee. This fast service is welcomed, especially when this cup of java is the first of the day.

This visit, I am trying their Eggs Benedict ($10.45) - three medium poached eggs (I don't like them runny) with very flavourful ham on a toasted English muffin. The hollandaise sauce served is served on the side, as I suspect people don't want it going on Meggie's signature garlic fries. I sure don't. Thin slices of pineapple, cantaloupe and orange finish off the meal. Unfortunately, they are not ripe...I don't finish the healthiest part of my meal.

The eggs benny is a big enough meal that I don't eat until supper. Actually, every time I eat here, I can usually count on not having lunch that day.

Mark has the veggie omelet ($8.45) - three eggs with peppers, onions, mushrooms and cheese. He is not disappointed.

PS. Weekends are really busy so try and get there before 11.
