Cora’s Breakfast & Lunch

I went on a Saturday morning and was able to get a seat right away. Food was great and we didn’t have to wait to long. I was happy with this location service.

If you love fruit, Cora’s is the place to be. Servers are quick and efficient and so are the cooks. This place gets PACKED on the weekends, so either go early or just before noon.
I’ve tried lots of breakfasts here and they’re always good. The menu changes every once in awhile to keep things interesting. Last time I was there I tried a Crepeomelette. It had a western omelette rolled into a tortilla and smothered in bernaise sauce. Mmmmm. The sauce wasn’t overly salty either.
They have a gluten free menu too! My mom tried the Gigi Omelette; it’s got egg whites, mushrooms, spinach and caramelized onions with gluten-​free toast. She loved it!
Perhaps one day, I’ll actually try lunch!

Always great food and service! The staff are friendly, lots of choice on the menu. Prices are fair for portion sizes. Recommend to anyone looking for a great breakfast with friends and family.

Great food, wonderful service. Horrible bacon. Tastes like the microwave stuff. Other than that foods great.

Waited at the door forever, watched my food sit on the warmer forever, waited for coffee refill forever and then for the bill! Wasn’t very busy and they don’t have their priorities straight. Service sucks at this location!

My ideal healthy and hearty weekend morning will always start here. This is one breakfast place I do NOT consider a hang over breakfast but just something to eat before you go out and have an afternoon at the park.
The prices are good considering what you are getting, a lot of breakfast places are cheaper but you can really taste and see the quality in the food.
One thing I will say about the location is it was not as good as other codas locations when it comes to customer service.
Overall Cora’s is a great chain and will continue to go here !

A bit pricey but a serious upgrade over the regular breakfast at a Greasy Spoon, Lots of healthy options.

Waited 15 mins before being served. Would have been longer if we did not ask to be served. Waitress forgot half my drinks and service was slow.
The manager gave us complimentary smoothy drinks which were not even going to order, but that does not make up for the bad service. We should have received complimentary drinks based on what we were ordering.
Otherwise the food was great.

Not a fan. The décor is the same at every Cora’s — creepy barnyard motifs. The waitresses were nice but why so many of them. Four kids in uniform standing around giggling while everyone else worked. I had the brioche with eggs and fruit. The brioche was huge and there is an abundance of fruit. If you want decent eggs and more than just one tired over cooked egg, and decent thick bacon, go elsewhere — frankly go to Sunset.

I’ve been to a few Cora’s and have always found the food and service very good. The people at this location were suburb. We were greeted at the door in a pleasant and sincere fashion. The wait staff were prompt and friendly. The food was great and I would recommend anyone to try this location.

After being open for about a week I decided to check out the new breakfast spot in north Whitby… Cora’s.
Cora is quite a pretty and comfy spot, with a mix of booths and tables and a nice décor which was spotlessly clean.
The menu is quite varied with a wide variety of omelets, pancakes, waffles and traditional egg and bacon breakfast, however my initial impression was ohh, this looks interesting and tasty, then directly to Wow… Expensive…
Food cost, rent, labour etc are up for all restaurants and I respect the challenges they face, however $ 10.15 for 3 blueberry waffles (+ beverage) seems high too me and most every breakfast entrée was over $ 10 with coffee extra. Not a good first impression and while it maybe the reality of food costs today, I question the logic of crossing the $ 10 barrier to greet new customers and a town. (but I also found out this is not up to the franchise owners and comes from head office)
My order was sausage and eggs over easy which arrived with two eggs, two sausages, rye toast and real home fries.
Impressions: coffee took 2 creams to reach a drinkable level and I saw it was Mother Parkers which some like, but not me. The plate looked good at first glance however Sausage was not browned /​cooked and I chose not to eat it, which was in contrast to the homefries which were burnt and black in spots and had no seasoning (I left these too). Eggs were cooked perfectly and toast a very nice rye with a nice selection of jams.
While I was looking/​picking suspiciously at my 2 sausages and the home fries, the server immediately asked if there was an issue and I said they did not seem cooked properly to me and she immediately offered to get new ones, however I said it was ok and that I would prefer not to.
Summary:
Atmosphere: ⁹⁄₁₀
Food: ⁷⁄₁₀ (my problems were hiccups as other people seemed happy)
Value: ⁵⁄₁₀ (sorry…there are much better deals in town)
Service: ¹⁰⁄₁₀ — Especially as the owner made a point of coming over to check on my meal and didnt charge me for it which was fair as I could only eat half of it (FYI I did not ask for this, she offered to do it and I thanked her and shared this review and wished them well)
Overall I would go back and give it another chance due to the excellent service I received and I will try to be more forgiving on the prices. I am also curiuos to see what they offer for lunch)
