We live on Vancouver Island and make a point of going for breakfast at Paul's. Food is great, and they are very respectful of my dairy allergy. Never a problem! We bring all our visitors to Paul's! We often have to wait for a free table, but it's really worth it! Great coffee and I take it black, black and black.
some of the best omlettes and breakfast I have ever had. whenever i go back to Vancouver it will be one of my first destinations
What a great neighbourhood find! Even loved it more when we got a table within 10 min. We got in just before the wait got longer. Turn around is quick - we ordered, ate and paid within about a half hour. I believe the owner took our orders and he was super friendly. A fellow waiter stopped by comment on his Red Sox shirt. Very nice atmosphere. Food was delicious but wasnt over the top in portions and greasy like some other breakfast places. I was comfortably full. I will definitely come back and try the omelettes next time!
This is a nice breakfast/lunch spot located on Granville Street, not far from Granville Island. In addition to omelettes, they serve up a good variety of other breakfast foods as well as lunch items, and also have daily specials. I had their Edison omelette and their Soup & Sandwich special, which consisted of a monte cristo and a cup of tomato bisque. The food was quite tasty and the prices are reasonable. I was a bit disappointed by the service however; the staff I had weren't particularly welcoming or attentive, and while I did receive all of my food without any hitch, I did see the table beside me having their orders being messed up. Nonetheless, I did quite enjoy my visit, and I'd recommend checking the place out.
Soup & Sandwich Special ($12.75):
4/5
This consisted of a monte cristo sandwich and a cup of tomato bisque. The monte cristo contained ham, bacon and cheddar cheese. It was flavourful, although I did find the bread to be a bit soggy. I'm generally not a fan of tomato soup, but I have to say, I really enjoyed theirs. The soup was very creamy and rich, with a nice tang.
The Edison ($13.25):
4/5
The omelette contained turkey, bacon, corn, musrhoom, onion, edam, cheddar & cream cheese, and is served with two slices of buttered toast. There was a good amount of filling wrapped inside the omelette, in particular cheese. I did find it to be just a tad underseasoned however. I quite enjoyed their toast, which had a generous amount of butter.
Summary:
Food: 4/5
Price: 4/5
Service: 3/5
Overall: 3.5/5
Recommendations: The Edison
Came on Saturday during lunch time around noon-ishand there was already a short line up. We waited for about 15 minutes for a small table. The waiter came over to offer coffee shortly after we sat down and I got myself a cup (it's refillable) while my friend got an apple ginger juice...which was just ok. We both ordered the Zimmer. I think it was not bad except that the poached eggs are just slightly overcooked.
Awesome lunch. Quick service. Great price. Friendly staff. Had the soup and sandwich lunch. Would recommend to family and friends. Great stop before hitting the town.
Paul' place kinda had that home feel restaurant look but with a modern twist. I had the Blackstone eggs Benedict, I'm pretty picky when it comes to this dish just cause so many restaurants make the hollandaise sauce heavy but it was just right and the eggs were perfectly done. The dish comes with hash browns as well and they were pretty well seasoned. The service was excellent.
This place is pack on Sunday and they serve different options of brekkie. There are lots of meat sausage option (yum) but there's also decent varieties for our veggie friends. Overall service is alright (the coffee kept coming š) and the wait was not too bad. It's DIY to put your name down to get in the queue. If you are in the neighbourhood , do try this place. Btw, I find the quesadilla brekkie better than the omelet (imo) ...
Now I should've ordered a omelette but I just love bennys too much because of the yolks lol. My experience was pleasant and service is 5/5 for me. I will definitely come again to see how the omelettes are.
I ordered the florentine bennys. Poached soft eggs, over spinach and mushrooms, with a nice hollandaise sauce. Nicely done. Great service, decent bennys, good atmosphere.
Went here for the first time today. I got the corned beef hash. It was good. When it came to me the eggs were poached hard. I wanted soft. The waitress fixed the problem immediately. Needless to say, the service was great. The food was also quite good. I enjoyed it and will probably return.
Pictured: the Zimmer - poached eggs with avocado, cream cheese, mushrooms and alfafa sprouts on toast. Given how much I love brunch, itās actually a bit shocking to myself that I had never ever been to Paulās Omelettery until a few weeks ago. First time here and really liked their food and coffee. I went on a weekend and it was full! Luckily I didnāt have to wait long for a table. The decor is quite minimalistic - black and white theme - but still very cozy. There are big windows, which lets in lots of wonderful light from the outside. The only thing that would stop me from coming here more often is the lack of free parking.
My favorite brunch place - I am super boring and order free range eggs, bacon, side of toast.
Great friendly casual service - always served with a smile.
The restaurant is completely local and old fashion but if you are looking for having a delicious breakfast or brunch, try it for sure!
The taste and quality of foods are perfectšš»š¤š»
Staffs are good but you can see there is one shiny gray hair one who is shining like a star there āØ
The cost was more than great š
Try it and enjoy!
As a 20-year old restaurant, Paulās Omelettery is prominent in one of the most genuine locations in Vancouver.

Iāve been here for 3 times and each time Iāve enjoyed the authentic breakfast & brunch.
āļø The vibe is always perfect. Its always clean and tidy and everything is just in place.
š¤µš» The staff always behaves warm & friendly. They know menu well and are super helpful.
Recommendations:
š«For omelette, try 1306 which is really special in taste.
š³For benny, go for Florentine benny especially if you are hungry.
š„Avocado Toast is a must try with super tasty sourdough.
š„ Try the pancake. It has a good size and taste as well.
š For any breakfast, choose sourdough as your bread.
š Enjoy!
Wonderful place to get breakfast. I donāt say this that often but itās the whole package! Lumberjack included a little delicious, creamy delicate 3 cheese omelette and everything was so perfectly done. I donāt even usually like omelettes that much and would normally choose poached eggs but I take the hint when some dish is part of the restaurantās name. Glad I did. Lots of combos and choices on the menu. Room is comfortable. Service is incredibly warm and friendly. And prices are reasonable, on top of that. Coffee is decent and bottomless, and cream is served in a tiny pitcher (and not those little plastic throwaways, but the whipped butter is. I donāt mind that as much). Coffee could be a bit richer tasting but they serve espresso drinks too. I love the holder of condiments on the table, as opposed to the server asking what you need. There was even some Jamaican hot sauce that had a lot of heat. I wouldnāt ask for anything more. I had to ask for coffee refills when I saw someone with the pot but that doesnāt really bother me. Plenty of seating so they never had a wait when I was there mid-morning. Usually it bugs me when an establishment calls themselves the best in Vancouver but in this case, im inclines to agree that itās the best breakfast place Iāve been to in a long while at least. They have lunch stuff too.
A cozy spot to grab breakfast. I ordered the Hamilton omelette and it turned out to be very flavorful. The servers were super friendly and offered me peanut butter. Everything is very reasonably priced.
Very nice staff
Delicious breakfast options in good portion and with a very reasonable price.
Corned Beef Hash and Zimmer were both great!
Very good breakfast. Nice tables with all the condiments one would want. Dont order the turkey sausage though. Didnt smell good. All the other food was very good. Recommended.
Itās been over 10 years since Iāve eaten here. I am super happy to see the quality of the food and service has not diminished. My kids would love it here.
This place is an absolute institution in the Vancouver scene. Traditional breakfast and lunch fair and brunch especially on the weekends for those recovering from the evenings activities or just wanting to gather for a great feed earlier in the day. The food is always fresh and hot and Apple. The selection is wide ranging with respect to breakfast fare and brunch fare. Parking can be a mild headache as it is Street-based and it is located directly on Granville Street which is rather busy over the side streets often provide an opportunity to park close by. One of the things you'll notice the most is that service is excellent and the coffee is always topped up as soon as you look away. Business is always excellent here and generally speaking there's a wait but it's well worth it. Value for money is actually quite good. It is a clean and approachable place perfect for a quick business lunch, social breakfast or to bring your family on the weekends. I've been here many times and will come again.
