Al's Diner

We took a friend's recommendation to try out Al's Diner. This place is tucked away on Clyde, just off of Carling ave. The waitresses seated us right away, wherever we would like, and brought over a high chair, some crayons, and colouring books. We looked over the menu and placed our orders, then barely had a sip of our coffees before the food was all brought out together. I have never seen our meals come out so quickly before!

This restaurant advertises that they specialise in smoked meat, so I tried the smoked meat Benedict. It was really tasty, and I would totally order it again. I wasn't a big fan of the home-fries, but the kids and Toast man enjoyed them. Toast man had the "Al's big hit" with French toast. He liked it. It was satisfying and he would eat it again. Toast girl ordered banana pancakes, which she devoured. And Toast Boy had the kids egg and bacon breakfast. He ate every bite.

As far as greasy spoon breakfasts go, this one was quite good. The price tag was amazing and the speed of service was top notch. I'm impressed and will keep it in mind for future outings.

The restaurant had plenty of high chairs and booster seats, they also had car-seat slings and were very child friendly. The washrooms, however, did not have change tables.
