"A Charming Brunch at Aunties and Uncles You'll always find a lineup outside of Aunties and Uncles tucked away on charming Lippincott Street, a block east of Bathurst and College. The reason? It's one of the best value brunches in town. From the hearty challah with housemade jam, to its breakfast pockets or stuffed to the toast sandwich creations (Grilled Brie with pear, anyone?), you will leave here satisfied. There's tons of Canadiana and retro kitsch to look at while you're waiting. (Do expect a 40 minute wait, especially during prime time weekend hours). Definitely worth the wait and a great start to the day before you explore Kensington Market or Little Italy."

"Aunties & Uncles, Little Italy by Sid Lee. Honestly the coziest brunch spot you’ll find in Toronto, bar none. But also one of the busiest so get there early or be prepared to wait. (The ones you line up for are always the best, no?) The smell of honest to goodness good breakfast food wafts down the street and is even better when you walk in the door. The staff is super friendly, and the decor is loveably kitschy. They make a mean cappuccino and have a great selection of classic breakfast food. Nothing overly pretentious or contrived here - just goooooood stuff. Must eats: Breakfast Pocket, Croque Monsieur, Pan Bagnat."

Despite all the good reviews, my experience was very poor and nowhere close to what others have experienced or what the photos posted depict. I came here on a Sunday morning with two other friends. We started off with a coffee each while deciding what to order. However, when our drinks came, the cups we all received were chipped in multiple areas. Definitely not a good start, and the coffee didn’t taste great either. We ordered the quiche with a side salad, which consisted of some mixed greens, mushy tomatoes, and a garnish of seeds. The quiche wasn’t very fresh or cooked well; the bottom felt undercooked as it was mushy and wet. We also ordered eggs with bacon and sausage. The bacon was way overdone—it was dry and snapped as soon as my fork touched it. The sausages were the breakfast ones bought from the store, which were salty and also burnt on one side. The two slices of baguette were tough and not fresh. The black beans that came with it were flavorless, with just some dried parsley on top. Only the eggs were good, and that was the only food I was able to eat. The server never checked on us; we had to get up from our table each time we needed something from him. For the price and quality of food, there are plenty of better options nearby.

I came here once before in the summertime and it was a wonderful experience staff was friendly it was a beautiful day and I was sitting outside on the patio enjoying breakfast with a friend. Fast forward a couple of years and I just went to your recently on a snowy Saturday... I never been inside before and to be honest I could have lived without it. It's small it's cramped it's not cute. Seems a bit difficult actually. I feel sorry for both the cook and the wait staff. The food is decent but I'm not going to say it was any more better than the average brunch spot. All I have to say is this place does a lot better in the summertime. It definitely can get very busy but during winter I wouldn't say it's worth the wait.

My partner and I came here for brunch, today. I had the Chocolate and Banana French Toast, but the chef wasn't happy with the condition the bananas were in, so they asked if strawberries were a suitable substitution. I agreed, and boy am I glad. They were delicious and I have no regrets. My partner had the BBLT, without the egg (due to allergies), and was also not disappointed. I highly recommend this place for brunch.

Very lovely place. Nice staff. Brunch 7days. I tasted the banana pancakes and they are really good. All other dishes seemed very tasty. I suggest to visit.

I wouldn’t give 1 star easily but this place..... Wanted to give them a try because they usually busy, we went inside and our server sat us down right beside their kitchen so we could see everything they were making, I start from here that the guy who was making the sandwiches was having a bite from each lettuce that he was putting for each sandwich and while he was making the sandwiches he was having his own breakfast and he was all happy and looks like it was something normal to him but to me it was super disgusting!! Also the guy who was making the eggs and other stuff, he was texting while he was making eggs which looks disgusting with the same hand no gloves!! We ordered the taco and chicken sandwich which in total of all only the taste of chicken in chicken sandwich was good. I think there could be 2 reason these guys are busy 1- their food is super super cheap like everything is mostly under $10 2- they are local so I feel like local people haven’t tried other breakfast places

Delicious brunch, super indulgent and satisfying! This small place is always packed on weekends so if you're free on a weekday, get yourself there immediately! Good choice of co.fort food brunch and their potato salad is the perfect balance of creamy and Dill. The decor is eclectic and vintage-chic and I love that their menu incorporates old catalog pages. Very Canadiana vibe to it and theres a bug patio to enjoy in the summer.

Just steps from college and bathurst you'll find this awesome brunch diner. The spot is very popular, so there are seating wait times from time to time. I was lucky enough to be in the neighborhood on a Monday, so I did not have to wait for a seat, but there were still plenty of customers. Has a front patio with plenty of seating, great for warm days. Awesome food selection. Tempted by the pancakes, but had scrambled eggs with peameal bacon, toast and cottage cheese for just under $10. Excellent service, quick, polite, and attentive. Great diner atmosphere and decor. Would highly recommend.

Great food, I had the omelette with a side of salad, everything perfectly cooked, so flavourful and balanced. I highly recommend this place, an authentic hidden gem.
