Contribute Feedback What Merle Morar likes about Diner On The Lane:
We only wanted breakfast and I didn't have much of an appetite. But the service and food were both very good. The attendants sorted out the confusion between the free-breakfast cards the adjacent hotel gave us without unnecessary fuss as well as serving our orders without flaw. No one at my table had complaints about portions or taste (in fact, I gave my extras to my brother). I wouldn't mind eating here a second tim... View all feedback.
What Marcia Hand doesn't like about Diner On The Lane:
We recently dined at this restaurant and found the food to be average. It did not have the same home-cooked flavor that we were expecting, despite its appearance. View all feedback.
Beautifully poached eggs. Now they know not to put to much vinegar :) Rye available, no extra charge. Only 2 bacon or sausage. So a tad over priced. Home fries were cut way to big for our our tastes. Spread instead of Jam. Coffee was good & hot, at a reasonable price. Big price sign outside was Eh, off putting. Lovely waitress was training 2 young ones & training on cash.. Hotel next door brought in more guests. Menu confusing.
We found this place after walking out of an IHOP in disgust. This restaurant made us feel welcome, the breakfast was tasty and well-prepared, and the prices were a welcome relief after the shock of the IHOP. The young lady who served our food was obviously new to the job but was wonderfully attentive with suggestions, recommendations, and the coffee pot.All in all, a marvellous breakfast. It's a shame that the place was almost empty. This is the kind of place that people will love when AND IF they stumble upon it. We found it only because it happened to be next door to the Day's Inn that we stayed at. What a lucky find!
We stopped in for brunch and were a little bit wary as it was 12:30 on a Friday and there was only one other table with people eating but we were pleasantly surprised. I had a clubhouse sandwich and it was served on Ciabatta. It was very flavourful. The fries were good, too.Hubs had the corned beef hash and said it was amazing. Place was clean, coffee was good, service was good. Prices were good, too. About $22 for bill.
My family and I went to the Diner on the Lane when it changed from Whimpy's. As soon as you walk in all you see is blue/gray everywhere, the walls, the carpet, the seats. The decor has no life, it was better when it was Whimpy's as they had a theme of 1950's. Their food is good. The pop tastes like pipe or soda water. Place is clean and the servers are friendly. Not on the top 5 list of our family's favourite places to go but we would return if needed.
We enjoyed our lunch at Diner on the lane - had the club house sandwich and fries. The fries were excellent as was the club house - the waitress was very friendly and quick as we were in a rush - Rick Trus review
