W Breakfast Lunch - Fort Saint John

Standard breakfast place offering big selections of both breakfast and lunch items. My server was lovely and paid attention my coffee; she never let me run out of it (thank goodness)! I ordered the fully loaded omelette with shredded hash browns. I thought the omelette itself was a bit oily, but that's to be expected when it had bacon and cheese. The hash browns were so crispy I couldn't stop eating them!

Underwhelming. I came for breakfast with some friends and a young child and I just felt this place was lacking in literally every area. The food had little to no spice, it seemed to have barely any salt. The time it took to get fairly basic breakfast items was lengthy. The bathroom (men's) had the only toilet out of order with no noted alternative (I would imagine the women's would've been fine to use but a sign for permission or something would've been ideal). The table had a major wobble to it. The pricing was priced as if it was some premium place but like I'm noting about, this place was far from premium. $10 for children's freezer microwave food is a bit wild. Not recommended, there's many better places in town.

I thought the W was quite good. I had the mini eggs Benedict with ham. Very tasty. The hollandaise was quite good. Very sparing on the actual dish however so I asked for some extra which came in a small ramekin, Stone cold. When I inquired about it, I was told that it is always served that way. I have never had cold hollandaise sauce on an Eggs Benedict. Plus they charged me three extra dollars! For a tiny ramekin Granted it was homemade and very tasty, plus the egg was cooked perfectly. I still enjoyed it slightly less because of the hollandaise being thick and cold. I chose the shredded potatoes with my breakfast entrée. They were also cold and abit greasy. I would try this place again if I ever were in town, because everything is homemade, and my server Glenda, was great. Definitely worth a second chance.

Breakfast diners in FSJ are almost always crowded, noisy and rushed. W is the newly renovated cafe side of Mama Panda's Chinese restaurant. Since opening in May it hasn't quite caught on with the morning crowd. This allows patrons to enjoy fresh home style cooking in relative quiet. The kitchen does the little things really well. The right amount of runny yolk in a soft poached egg without leaving an uncooked white. The use of fresh, rather than processed frozen hashed browns. A tasty mix of grilled ham and chopped veggie hash on the house egg bennie. Most of the dishes have real eye appeal. Check out the posted photos. W loves early risers and offers discount meal specials before 9 am. Sort of a happy hour for early birds and excellent value. I strongly suggest visiting before word gets out and crowds start filling up this great little diner.

Great place for breakfast, great food and all at a great price. I like the decor, I like the eggs and bacon and my son loves the waffles!! It's a busy place for a reason!! Just a great place!! I recommend it!!
