We came here tonight for dinner. It opened only a month ago, but you'd never know it. The food and service were seamless. With about 29 seats, this place can get busy fast, especially for brunch, we hear. The menu is comfort food, with an emphasis on brunch items, but also some solid choices for lunch and dinner in the way of sandwiches and "patty melts", an assortment of patties served on incredibly yummy breads: toasted, buttery, amazing breads. We ordered the charred broccoli and WOW, was it ever amazing. A sauce with a kick made this dish so, so good. By the end of that and my Breakfast Patty Melt (with a burger, bacon and an egg and more), I was stuffed :) Great portion sizes. My Manhattan was expertly prepared, too. The wines and beers are thoughtfully chosen as well. Loved the music, and the general vibe. All in all this local spot is great, and we will be back!
Classy takes on classic diner food. Tastes incredible. I have a high standard for griddle cakes, and this place blows them out of the water. They do "over easy" properly. Great drink selection. Jazz overhead. They have a new regular. 10/10.
Probably the best meatloaf dinner I've ever eaten..food is amazing and the staff so friendly.
I'll be back....
Always a delight! Our fave go-to spot. The hostess is so friendly. The soul tunes make us feel at home and the food is what keeps us coming back!
I have gone to the diner on two separate occasions and each time, have absolutely fallen in love with the food. New meets traditional with the diner food that is offered at the White Lily. It's all comfort and you truly leave wanting to come every single day to try their entire menu.
Great simple vibe. Amazing service and food. Would definitely recommend!!
My daughter lives literally around the corner from White Lily Diner. Went there this morning Nov 5 2017, for breakfast. We loved it. Food was fantastic service was Par excellance. We visit Toronto three or four times a year we will eat here as often as we can. White Lily Diner is a true gem. Ashley was our waitress and she was just typical of the really great crew they have there.
I love Rubin's. They are my treat food. This was the best ever. And I am quite old....many Rubin's to compare too! The staff amazing,the coffee great, and I took donuts for friends.....AMAZING. The environment simple but lovely. As I was leaving two young couples were saying it's the best breakfast ever....it's their new place. IF YOU TRY IT YOU WILL BE BACK !

The Southern brekkie is a perfectly orchestrated balance of richness from the grits, buttery eggs and biscuits and acid from the ferments greens. Plate wiped clean. Delicious. The buttermilk griddle cakes w aged ricotta and sour cherries ....OMG. Great ambience and super staff. :)
delicious and consistent, the white lily diner has become our new destination from markham en route to downtown events. must get there early to sample doughnuts.
Gotta try the Reuben! Had to wait a bit but it was well worth it! And don't forget to order the doughnuts! You won't regret it!
best breakfast in the east end, maybe the whole city. and then there is the rest of the menu ... all incredible.
One of my go-to spots for brunch / lunch! It's a small place, but has a great atmosphere and the staff are friendly. KUDOS to the crew!
Had a amazing dinner . Dessert was awesome. We were both happy with the food and service. If you leave here hungry that's on you not on the food.
Had the southern breakfast, comfort food at its finest. Food was delicious staff very friendly. Will be back for sure.
