We are regular customers of the west end diner. We have never had a bad meal there. I have a sensitive stomach and oil bothers it, eating at the diner has never been a problem for me. Whether i have a veggie omelette, or chicken soulvlaki on a pita, which is delicious, or even once in a while, chocolate pancakes, i have never had a stomach reactions to any of their food. Their portions are large, their prices are reasonable. You do have to line up early on the weekend, but it is worth it. Of yay, i almost forgot, what about that montreal smokes meat sandwich, add a second sandwich for .25 cents, or 50 cents, and it comes with a side dish as well! What a deal!
Have been there several times and is generally good: large portions, comfort diner-style food. Not gourmet but the place is good for what it is.

Went here for breakfast with my daughter. It was Saturday morning and it was packed. There were 4 group ahead of us and we had to wait 20 mins to get a table. A lot of the people there knew the hostess and waitresses which is a great sign.
Atmosphere- The place is a simple family style place with a combination of tables and booths (some 2 seater booths available. Nothing fancy with kitchen at the center.
Food- My Greek omelette was full of feta cheese. It was excellent. The fried potato were seasoned nicely but a little soft for me. I like them with more of a crispness to them. This was served with baked beans which I thought was an odd addition. I think something lighter like sliced tomatoes or a few pieces of fruit would work better. My daughter had 2 sides- french toast - really tasty bread but it is a shame they do not serve real maple syrup. The fruit bowl was not the fruit cocktail variety but it was fresh cubes of melon, honeydew, grapes and pineapple. Very nice.
Service- The waitress was very friendly. She had our drinks quickly . We asked for and received promptly large glasses of water with lemon (without asking for lemons - ( I love that) I did ask for jam for my toast and she forgot to bring it until the end of the meal. It was so thing that could easily be missed especially since it was so busy. She noticed at the end and apologized for forgetting but I would not hold that against her.
Impression- My daughter has taken a liking to try breakfast places which have not been my routine . However, I think she will ask to go back.
This place is great. I am always greeted by the owners and their family, it's always such a welcoming environment. I would recommend the chicken souvlaki on a pita, it's pretty big and a tad hard to eat but it tastes amazing. Nice amount of garlic and lots of chicken; I find that it's a good idea to opt for home fries over any other side. They have rosemary or something in there sometimes. I like them better than Russell Williams (restaurant in Burlington) and that's saying a lot.
Just had breakfast at West End Diner, the food was delicious and the price was very reasonable. Busy, not a long wait, server and the owner was so friendly. This place definitely worth your money and food, way better that Cora, Sunset Grill and Eggs & I.
This is the breakfast place to go in Dundas and Hamilton. As a local I have tried all the breakfast places and this is our favorite. Food and staff are top notch. Come here and give it a try I'm sure this will become your favorite as well.
Great food for a great price! Awesome all day breakfast and a dinner menu that can never get boring! I don't know how they make so many different things so well but they do! I was reading the review before me regarding wait staff and have never had an issue. Always received great service.
Best in Dundas!. Came here for brunch on a Saturday. The whole place was very busy, but the wait for seats was not long at all. Amazing food, friendly staff, and the food came to our table very very quickly! I ordered a breakfast combo which included spinach and cream cheese eggs benedict, home fries, and assorted fruits (I submitted a picture of the lovely brunch above). Best place in the Dundas area to get brunch, hands down, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quick, yummy, and very filling bite.
Great old-school diner, excellent value. The West End Diner is my diner of choice in the Hamilton area. Good, hearty, tasty diner food at excellent prices. Great value. Fantastic Eggs Benedict, always perfectly poached, and very good Beef Dip. The service is as consistently great as the food. Have never had a bad experience at this place, and often take friends there. Highly recommended.
Awesome place. I have been there a few times for breakfast and dinner. All our experiences have been positive. Large portions, fair prices, excellent service. Best place in the city to have breakfast.
Took a drive from Mississauga to have lunch with friends. Heard good things about this eatery.
Certainly did not disappoint! Excellent friendly service, large portions ( brought home left overs) and offer a Seniors Menu, which is awesome! Reasonable prices too. Very happy with our lunch. Will post pictures of our meals. Recommend
Wonderful experience at this restaurant. From the get go, the person that greeted us was very friendly. Our server, Amy, was very good. She was professional, provided good recommendations, was efficient and proactive in her service. At no point did we run out of coffee or water.
The food was great.
We had the 8oz chopped steak(hamburger steak) with home fries and rye bread and the veggie omelette with home fries. Pictures for both are provided.
Food arrived in a reasonable time from the time of order.
Will definitely return to this restaurant in the future.
Thank you Amy and thank you West End Diner for the nice experience.
Had no idea where to go for dinner, and this is what came up on Google. I have to say, this is the best food I have had in a LONG time. Really enjoyed ourselves. Coffee is a little weak but the service and food make up for it. We will definitely be back. I ordered the veal and it is the size of two sandwiches! Also amazingly good. Prices are reasonable and worth every penny. I didn’t try the soup but the table beside us did and it smells and looks awesome. Such large servings too!!! Thanks for the great meal!! Picture is the half of my sandwich I am being home!! Look at the size of it!!!
This place was fairly nice. I think the only concern I have with it is how close everything is together. The table next to us was so close we were almost part of each others conversations. The front counter also.being front an center with all the bustling and yelling going on, understandably so it is a busy restaurant, felt slightly awkward.
Though don't let this take away at all from the amazing quality of the food we have gotten. Usually I am not a fan of getting restaurant fries because they are either too big or soggy. Yet these were crispy and perfect along with the mouth-watering juicy burger.
So if you can get by a slightly cramped dining room to enjoy some top quality family comfort food, this place is definately for you.
Great place for all day breakfast! The service is fantastic, menu is extensive and the portions are plentiful. We visit this place regularly for breakfast but the lunch and dinner options are quite good too! Today I had the mushroom & Swiss burger and I have to say it was the best burger I’ve had in years. Mashed potatoes were super tasty as well.
I love going to the West End Diner for a meal with family and friends. The staff are always ready to great you will kindness and are quick to take your order and bring out some authentic dinner food. If you like livers then this is the place to go.
Excellent food, Staff and service. Price of the menu is very good. I always get the Lamb Chops. Good size and 4 of them each time. Large amounts of food served on each dish. Many times the other dishes are too large to eat at one time so take home boxes are often used.
My in-laws decided to spring a surprise invitation to the West End diner on us as they have been regulars for years and have wanted to return now the city's COVID restrictions are relaxing as more and more are fully vaccinated.
The soup of the day was Beef & Barley and it was delicious. Hearty and warming. Exactly what I wanted out of my soup. My partner had the fettuccini alfredo and I had the hot turkey sandwich. The portion sizes here are the best part hands down. They fill up your plate and takeaway is almost expected!
The biggest drawback was the prices for the lunch/dinner menu. It seems COVID has been hard on everyone and simple meals have gone up to almost 15+ dollars a plate for some items. The breakfast menu is still consistently affordable though so I would recommend for breakfast!
All-in-all we will be returning as usual but maybe a bit less frequently as the price raises have made it a bit more difficult.
Please consider trying this West End staple!
