What User likes about Mad Dog Cafe:
I drive by this place all the time and it wasn't until a rainy day a few weeks ago, we stopped in.It is such a cute spot! Cozy, homey and perfect neighbourhood stop for breakfast.I had their eggs benedict and thought everything was really tasty.And the prices!!Seriously, brunch is something I find hard to justify, because. Eggs. Like so cheap so I don't want to pay $20 for them. But I believe my dish was around $11.... View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Mad Dog Cafe:
It's night intricate French cooking. It's breakfast. But somehow they haven't mastered or even gotten good at it. Sausages were done on one side. But the crime was the potatoes. Burned. Cinder. And yet served! How can you look at those and think they're good enough to go on a plate?Staff was unapologetic at the table clearing (and carefully never approached during the meal to ask how things were). Avoid.

Had lunch at Mad Dog (no parking but across from the Beer Store) on a weekday, yet it was a wait to get a table in such a small cafe. The service was fast and M...

A quaint neighborhood spot, Mad Dog Cafe offers a hit-or-miss dining experience. While some have praised the friendly staff and affordable prices for brunch items like eggs benedict and cuban sandwiches, others were disappointed by delayed service and food quality issues such as burnt sausages and bland potatoes. The cafe appears to struggle with maintaining efficiency during busy periods, resulting in long wait times for both tables and food. Despite the mixed reviews, the cozy ambiance and extensive menu may make this cafe worth a visit for those in the Leslieville area seeking a casual breakfast or lunch spot.
