John’s Family Restaurant

tasty food for sure. it’s a fairly new restaurant. I like that it offers brunch as well not only breakfast. the restaurant has lots of seating tables and a sitting bar. a few reasons why I gave this restaurant a 4 star; the temperature inside is awfully warm. no music playing only a TV set on news. (was quite distracting when the news is playing a siren) service was pleasant but slow. accent wall with random pictures and two chalk boards. I didn’t understand what that was about.
I’ll be honest though I will come back! definitely a family restaurant. menu has a wide variety of items and pricing is reasonable.
lots of parking available as well.
method of payment accepted, plastic and good old cash.

A great addition to the neighbourhood. A pleasant family run business with good food. Very busy during peak hours though!

One of the best family restaurants in Brampton very clean with friendly service I had the penne a la vodka it was amazing it has bacon spinach and mushrooms with whole cloves of yummy roasted garlic that melts in your mouth I also added shrimp and they were massive my mom had fettuccine Alfredo she said it’s the best she has ever had topped with grilled chicken every one needs to try this place

Relocated from the original location in Caledon on September 2015.
Nice clean place with lots of parking. We came for breakfast one Saturday morning and we waited about 10 minutes which was not bad as it was very busy.
Lots of options on the menu for breakfast and lunch and the staff are very nice. I have never seen so many Eggs Benedict options.
I had the Asparagus and Swiss Eggs Benedict which was great but we waited a while for our food. In the end it was worth the wait as the food was amazing.

So, upon seeing where this place is located, Lee and I got in an argument for most of the length of our wait (It was very busy on a Sunday!) as to what the original building this place is located was.
… it was a Wendy’s. But other than a few little hints of paint on the doors and the ghost of a drive-​through, you can’t really tell. It’s been redone to be very nice, with a clean and simple look.
Once we were seated, it was time to look over the menu. Lee, ever being the sucker for French Toast, decided to go with The French Connection, which ended up being a truckload of food. Too much food, Lee complained a little. For only $ 12 he got 3 eggs, a pile of bacon, a few sausages, a pile of potatoes, AND French toast. I think he would have been happy paying the same price for half the food, but he did still finish it.
I made sort of a similar mistake. Their benny comes in a small and a large, and I really should have gotten the small. The large was three bennys, with great peameal, nicely cooked eggs, and delicious hollandaise, with fruit as well.
Service was friendly, coffee was delicious, and overall it was a great place. I would definitely return!

So happy to finally have a great breakfast place in Brampton … i have been there quite a few times to eat breakfast and as a server /​bartender being in the business i have to say service is great atmosphere is great very welcoming place to be thumbs up 5 stars. I recommend John’s to all my friends

We were really looking forward to John’s re-​opening closer to our house and with a larger location.
The renovations are great the place looks super.
Unfortunately the service has been very slow the times we’ve visited. A two hour wait for eggs really puts a dent in your day.
Hoping they sort out the staffing shortage.
Will wait a few months before trying again.

After living in Brampton for some time now, I think I have scouted out most of the breakfast places in the area. After using my trusty Unilocal app I happened upon John’s Family Restaurant.
I remember a place called John’s Family Restaurant up in the Caledon area. This happens to be the same place. Located in a strip mall in its own stand alone building, from what I remember used to be a fast food restaurant. The décor is upscale and casual, tables and booths with banquets fill the restaurant along with a small bar with seating as well. We sat ourselves and were quickly attended to. The service from first impressions is quite good, our server was friendly and approachable. The menu here varies from breakfast/​lunch to dinner and it is quite different between both. On the breakfast menu there is the usual fare of breakfast items (french toast, eggs, bacon etc) and even some light lunch items. I did get to take a look at the dinner menu which varied from NY strip-​loin to varied pastas and some excellent Greek/​Mediterranean items.
Going off book and ordering something different for breakfast is not my wife’s thing. Its always a BLT with fries, but the description for the meatball sandwich was too good to resist for my wife. Homemade meatballs and sauce with melted pizza mozzarella on a toasted bun sounded awesome. I ordered something called the «The French Connection» a very unassuming item… bacon eggs sausage and french toast.
The service here is quite good, just like at the beginning. Every time I needed something our server was in easy reach. Our food arrived in a timely manner, considering how busy the restaurant got while we were there. My wife’s food came first and it looked amazing, our friend ordered a Greek burger which also looked delicious. My order came out next… Yikes! Two full plates of food! It looked like a full order of French toast and my order of eggs, bacon, homefries and sausage with a bowl of fruit to top it all off! The food was excellent and the portion sizes are quite good. If your in the north part of Brampton and your looking for a great spot for breakfast, lunch or dinner. check out John’s Family Restaurant… you won’t be disappointed…5 stars

Best food ever! Portions are great. Staff is great. Management is great. Feels like eating at home.

If I was rating this restaurant on service alone it would easily be 5 stars. So genuinely friendly and welcoming! I can’t remember the last time we were treated so well in a restaurant.
The food was well prepared and tasted good. Basic breakfast. But the coffee was great and so piping hot! That made me very happy.
It did feel like a longer than average wait for our food but that may also have been because we were in a rush.

Went to John’s for the first time Great food, great staff. Will definitely be back. Gets quite busy on a Sunday.

We visited during the first week this place was open. Highly dubious as restaurants in this location tend to fail… But wow. We’ve been searching for a good local breakfast place for ages (the pancake factory in Georgetown usually has long waits and Stacy lees is in desperate need of a Reno)… And here it is!
The portions were enormous, the food was delicious, the staff were incredibly friendly, and the décor is beautiful. You can get some diner classics without heading to your local dive now that these guys are in the neighborhood. Our two breakfasts were great value.
I had the morning glory and honestly I got enough food for myself and my husband.
We will be back …
