Saturday brunch - 11:30am very busy but got in within 15 mins. Waited 15 minutes to place our coffee and food order. Food arrived 15 minute later, hot - flavourful and massive portions. Nice server. Reasonable prices. Average ambiance.
The 80s was recently purchased by the Smoke & Bones folks. Still looks the same, some of the same staff, some of the same menu items but a different looking menu. Loved that you could customize your omelette fillings (not possible in the past without upcharge) though I did miss cheese as a basic filling. The 80s Special Scramble, however, had the addition of hashbrowns but noticeably fewer eggs on top and was disappointing. We'll keep coming back to try our favs!
First of all going to say, love how the staff members are actively making sure everyone is vaccinated and following proper covid policies.
Location + staff: 10/10
The staff are insanely friendly, and always doing their best to provide the best experience for us.
There are various choices, I had gotten the tuna melt. The price was reasonable and the taste was delightful. I'd definitely recommend going to 80s for brunch.
The only thing negative is their milkshake amount, their glass makes it look a lot bit it's actually a very small amount which was disappointing for the price.
Came here with my husband and baby today. We ordered the breakfast burrito and the Mexican hash dish.
For the price,honestly you can't beat it. It's crazy inexpensive here for giant portions. The food comes out fresh and hot. My only concern would probably be that all the food was very bland. There's no seasoning at all, i added salt pepper and hot sauce and ketchup to most of the food.
I guess it is healthier knowing it isn't indulged in salt etc but I wish they flavored the potato's and food a bit more.
All in all, great experience. The servers were really friendly and helpful. This is a great place for families and elderly people who are trying to watch their salt intake I think 🤣
Atmosphere is your usual old school diner kind of situation. Friendly. Folksy. It gets busy around 10-11 ish.
One the best breakfast Ive ever had, gotta eat here. Friendly staff, good prices and cozy environment
Went with a bunch of friends on a week night. It's a fun little diner. We had a good time. Burgers and milkshakes were delicious!
The new owners have done a fine job of carrying on what has made the 80s a North Shore favourite for so many years.
Breakfast was as good as ever (perhaps even better?), and a number of the old staff remains.
My wife ordered her usual heavily customized omelette, while I ordered the classic Breakfast Special B. I can report the pancakes are as good as ever, and if the omelette tasted better, it was because the kitchen uses fresh eggs daily, said our server.
Sometimes, a good thing can become even better.
