I love this place , I go often. The staff is very friendly food is to dye for . Overall a great place for brunch and definitely would recommend it to everyone to try it .
Food was really delicious. Service was not at the same level. After making good recommendations our waitress failed to check on the table. It looked like they were short staff. I definitely recommend this place and will be back to try other items on the menu.
Love this place! My favourite item on the menu is the red velvet pancakes. I could probably just eat the cream cheese icing it comes with on it’s one as
well....its that good!
We came here with another couple who recommended us this place for brunch. It was around 1 pm on a Sunday when we arrived and, we still had to wait for at least 1 hour to get in (around 2 pm). The good thing is that they write down your name and contact you when your table is ready so, you can hang around the neighborhood meanwhile (as we did).
We sat on the second floor right next to the window so, it was nice. The ambiance is fine and the decor is nothing outrageous but, it works. Service was a little slow indeed but, friendly...
The food was actually good. Among other things, we had the Lentil Soup, Huevos Rancheros, Spanish Hash, Red Velvet Pancakes (Side) also, some cocktails Caesar, The Jolka and, we found everything to be very enjoyable although, not excellent (at least for me).

Several weeks ago, myself and Sandi (from Foodaholic Blog) ventured off to the west end of town on a Friday evening to visit The Good Fork. The Good Fork is pretty well known for their brunch offerings during the weekend. However, the restaurant is also opened for dinner service for Thursday and Friday evenings only.
We are going back regularily for brunches - their unusual combos of egg bennies are constantly drawing us back. My personal favorite are the Pulled Pork ones. Never thought this combo would work, but it certainly does!
We waited over an hour for a table. We asked for a table upstairs as it felt very downstairs. The music was too loud given the already high noise level. The Buttercup Omelette has lots of Manchego Cheese but was missing some seasoning and it was dry. Even the toasts were dry. Not the best food but would give them a second chance.
While I do like this place, I wasn't exactly in store for what was offered.
What got me to go into this place was the cute and funny signs that they have out front every morning. The inside was really nice looking, and the upstairs had a great view of Bloor West Village.
At first, I thought it was gonna be typical diner food, but I was wrong since this places offers unique combinations to beloved favourites. I decided to keep it simple and ordered eggs, toast, bacon, and homefries. Everything tasted great and there seems to be some hidden treasures throughout the meal, like herbs in the potatoes.
Overall good experience and probably would try again.
AMAZING BRUNCH. Always have a great time at The Good Fork! Love their brunch, everything is good! Service is great and fast!
It was amazing!. My friend and I found this place by accident and I'm glad we did. staff was wonderful and friendly. the Bennie was possibly one of the best I've had. totally worth a visit.
Dvd. Beside straight up bacon and eggs, if you want em, is an interesting combination of foods for breakfast and lunch. Despite that, what makes the trip to and the wait at times worth it is the excellent service.
The words please and thank you still exist from those that serve the tables, as does their pleasant smile.
Great breakfast! Good service and terrific food!
The food was so so so good!!!! It exceeded my expectations. I got the Spanish Hash. Potatoes were very crispy and the whole dish was full of flavours and very filling. It also had two poached eggs. Got Mimosas to drink. They were really cute because it came in a small bottle and you poured it yourself. The decor inside is delightful. The service was fast and everyone was very nice. I definitely want to come back and try their lunch menu and other brunch items!
As a person who loves brunch!! If you are looking for a place that offers you a beautiful, healthy and FANTASTIC brunch, GOOD FORK is the BEST place in Toronto! I’ve had brunch in 5-star hotels but this place is really something!! I’m 100% happy with them.
I’ve been here twice, or three times if you count a typical Sunday when they had a 1.5 hours waiting list for the brunch! Yes they are pretty busy on weekends and unfortunately you can’t do any reservations. But still!! The best place!
The first time we had hummus bowl with chicken, blueberry halva pancakes and Anatolian platter .. . The pancakes?! Wow!! 😋
I’m a kind of less-suger person😅😅 so the Salep was a bit too sweet for me! So We asked them if it’s possible to order it less-suger next time and they said yes!
So next time: we again had the bowl, the, and the appley apple pancakes. We liked the blueberry halva pancake more. The less-suger version of the Salep was absolutely amazing!! We can’t be more happy with a brunch place in Toronto! We are planned to have brunch there on a regular basis 😬
Hummus bowl with chicken: this plate offers you ALL you expect from a healthy and delicious brunch dish!
Anatolian platter: A dish of colors and taste which comes swith fresh turkish bagel 🥯
Blueberry Halva pancakes: Have you ever had halva on pancakes? Try it!!!!
Appley Apple pancakes: caramelized apple cinnamon date which is sweeter than blueberry pancakes.
And don’t forget to try their Salep drink !! 😋🤩
I come here specifically for one dish, and that is, the Çılbır. Just utterly divine - the herbs, the oil, the bread they serve it with. Everything marries so well together. Just soooo good. Their Earl Grey Lavender Fog was also heavenly. Very creamy and smooth. It’s a great place to have an unconventional breakfast or brunch. Great atmosphere. Suggest coming on the weekdays as it can get quite packed on the weekends.
Good Fork needs no introduction. It’s a very popular middle eastern breakfast/brunch/lunch place. There is always a waiting list to get in. I had the amazing opportunity to try their best seller Blueberry Buttermilk Pancake. To go with that we ordered something savoury, the Cilbir. The pancakes were heavenly. SO GOOD.
I had high hope for this place after reading all the comments… and it certainly did not disappoint. We sat in their patio (p.s dogs allowed) and our server was great.
We ordered several items from the menu and every single one was delicious! Most of what we ordered was on the savoury side… next time I’d definitely give the sweet dishes a try.
This brunch spot is definitely on a league of its own… and does not compare to other brunch spots I’ve been to.
Homy brunch spot in the West End of Toronto provides an inventive and diverse menu along with excellent service. Our Father's Day celebration was a wonderful experience, flawlessly executed, by the staff at the Goo Fork. Highly recommend!
My experience at the Good Fork was overall good. Their pancakes are rich, dense and yummy. I totally loved them, however I did find them a bit too much if they’re order as a main dish. I would recommend ordering them to share with somebody as it’s impossible to eat the whole thing alone. Too much sweetness in a dish. Their mimosas are tasty too. Their menu is interesting and the place is decorated in a way that feels harmonious with lots of natural light. Lastly, I’m giving it 4 stars because even though our server was extremely nice and apologetic with us, I had to send back a fork and a glass of water because they were dirty. Apart from that, everything was great and we enjoyed ourselves having brunch here.
Taste of Anatolia and Turkey 🇹🇷! Brunch was very delicious! A bit noisy but it was in general fine! I recommend this place to those who are looking to taste modern Middle Eastern and Turkish meals.
