One of the BEST breakfast joints in Winnipeg!
So many awesome dishes, and the Smoothies...to die for!
Cora's is always fantastic. A bevy of breakfast items all served superbly & of course...fresh fruit! I've been to many of the Cora franchises and none have ever disappointed.
I love this place! I typically don't get around to going often, just due to the hours of operation, but the food has never disappointed. I only wish they were open later.
Pretty good chain restaurant for a fairly pricey greasy breakfast. Menu is large. The Brie and mushroom and smoked salmon Benedicts are really good. Love the sides of fruit, they are pretty generous and beautifully presented. Mrs. Hitter had a fruit breakfast crepe and it was pretty soggy and the custard sauce not great. There is a breakfast burrito wrapped in a crepe Mr. Hitter likes a lot and he isn't a huge breakfast guy. The lunch offerings leave much to be desired. The hash browns are quite good for a chain. We can't comment on the breakfast meats because we aren't crazy about breakfast meats anyways. Worth checking out for breakfast if you can't make it to Stella's.
Celebrated my B-Day with a Cora's brunch! One word = delicious! Love the variety of fresh summer fruits. I had the 1990's Harvest. Only criticism is my egg was over done (ordered over easy). My sis had Grilled Ham&Cheese Crepe which she enjoyed. Fast&friendly service! I enjoy a hearty portion & you certainly get what you pay for! Couldn't finish it all.
Went for breakfast this morning and dined on smoked salmon eggs Benedict. It did not disappoint and the sides are not to be skipped. Absolutely loved the hashbrowns and fruit. If you're looking for a sweet caffeinated beverage the Moccachino was delicious. The service was friendly and we didn't feel rushed at any point. Will definitely be going back.
Before I ordered I knew that I have to go back. This place has a huge breakfast menu. I was there with a large group and everything looked great.
This is a great place for brunch and has a shorter lineup than Stella's does. I recommend that you call in advance so your can reduce the wait even more though... The food is good, if a little pricy but the portions are big and the presentation is really cool!
This place is a great place to go for breakfast or brunch with the family or friends.
The eggs Benedict with brie is the way to go!!
There is always an option for the healthy eater but also options for the meat-n-potato crowd.
Coras juice is delicious as well.
Good price for the yummy Sunday morning eggs and stuff.
Spinach Cheese Omelet Crepes with Hollindaise Sauce. Savory goodness!
AN EXCELLENT place to have breakfast with your Family!! Service was wonderful, they are all so nice and welcoming, food was absolutely Delicious. We will definitely be going there again!!
Love it!. They've got THE BEST chicken melt ive ever had. Get it every time with potatoes instead of fruit with onions and mushrooms and a raspberry smoothie. If you are going on the weekend be prepared for a wait!
No complaints. Pretty good service, pretty good food, pretty good price.
I'd go back.
Alright. The meal we had on Saturday was alright. We were situated in the back of the place, and aside from our waitress appearing to be a little busy and absent minded things went smoothly. The crepe I had was good, I had to send it back though because I originally ordered the hazelnut and not the regular custard. A simple misunderstanding, so I'm not worried. The boyfriend liked his, and I tried some of the hollendaise sauce from his plate, and I have to admit. It was really good. Not a kind of sauce I normally like, and can only handle in tiny portions.
Enjoyable. Yes, it does get busy so be prepared for that aspect.
On this visit, my first, I had the Jo Construction; toast, 3 eggs, 3 sausages, 3 strips of bacon on a heap of yummy hash browns and a bit of fruit. It was a great brunch. I sampled my partner's Eggs Ben et Dictine and I will have them next time! The servers were very attentive, probably the fast I've ever been witness to. The portions are large and a lot of the dishes are served with huge portions of fruit. Good for what ails ya.
Somebody said Sal's would be a better choice? Sheesh, if ya don't strap the helmet on tighter, it serves no purpose!
I'll give 'em 9/10 this time.
Cheers
Demanda reveiw. The Dregs....Who the hell do you think you are.. these are everyday families out for a .meal...You have a right to.to criticize the food .. Not people!!! Did you stand up give those people your name and tell them too their faces....thought not ... This is nothing short of disgusting Your family and friends must be so proud..of you as a such a cowardly person..by the way .this dreg like the food .
Excellent place for breakfast - great selection and very healthy feeling. Most entrees come with a giant pile of fruit which is fresh and delicious and very well presented!
Good Times. Every Tuesday some of my friends and I go to Cora's for a bite after our morning meeting.
I find the menu refreshingly different with some great twists on the classics. The prices are fair and the portions are pretty good. We've always enjoyed our breakfasts and our service has been very good as well.
Good job Cora's!
Great consistent breakfast. I usually order the gargantuan feast, and for the price it's a absolutely huge meal. Great variety on one plate from eggs and bacon to beans to creton spread. I love the inclusion of fruit with nearly every meal.
The wait is usually 20+ minutes on weekends, so plan for that. Once seated the service has been quite good. Only complaint would be that the waitin area is very small for the number of froups usually waiting. OK in fair weather to wait outside but a pain once the temp turns down.
Sunshine panini crepe was amazing. Workers push the smoothies too much. Fruit was soggy but plentiful.
Another great Cora's. Not quite on par with the place in St.B, but I've had breakfast and lunch here on several occasions and always leave happy.
Good alternative to other similar breakfast restaurants in the city due to the bright atmosphere and plentiful amount of fruit served with your plate.
Yummy Breakfast !. I love this place for a goood morning Breakfast (MEAL) !!
The skillet comes with all good veggies and fruits .... just sooo healthy !! It really makes my day ! Thanks Cora !
Best breakfasts!. This place is hands down my favorite place to go for breakfast. i love all the fruit you get! the prices are reasonable for a healthy meal, and the portions are quite large. the staff has always been very friendly. my favorites are the eggs benedict with asparagus, and "peggys poached," which comes with cottage cheese, 1 poached egg, toast and fruit!
Refreshing. Second time eating here, jucie is fresh, as is the fruit and main dish. Have no problem paying for a well made fresh breaskfast, nice to see this product from a franchise!
I always get the waffle! So yummy, and in a brat and always get it with strawberries, bananas, pineapples and grapes and the servers always get it right :) with custard and whipped cream! Their cinnamon brouche is amazing too :) I
I recommend their eggs Benedict.. This is my favorite breakfast place! I adore the sprightly interior, the colorful dishes and the overall atmosphere. Other reviewers complain about grease but I've eaten there more then 10 times and my dishes were never greasy.
The first time I dined there, I was impressed with the beautiful pictures in the menu. I was even more impressed when the plate I got was just as lovely.
On the weekend there is a bit of a lineup but it's worth the wait!
SCRUMPTIOUS!!!. OH MY, first I have to say it was a little pricey for my budget (or lack of) but well WORTH the money and food experience!
I had the 1990s harvest and all I can say is "I'd died and gone to heaven" it was so delicious and I even left 3/4s of the other half of the awesome cinnamon bun - just too full. Everything from the poached egg to the bacon strips were just perfect and no sweet sauces on the bun or the half a plate of fresh fruit either - so you tasted what you got!!! And I had the Mango/Banana smoothie that was so SMOOTH, light and delicious too.
Needless to say my FIRST TIME here was a raving success and I'm kinda ticked at my friend Florence for bringing me here. But not really, as I now have an awesome restaurant for future treats!
Great Breakfast. I have been to Cora's several times and I have always enjoyed the experience. The service has always been prompt and attentive and I have always enjoyed my meals.
The decor is quirky yet charming. Same with the menu. The house specialty is crepes and they do a very good job. A lot of their dishes feature a large portion of fruit that I have always found to be fresh and contain a nice variety of different fruits.
My only complaint is that the average beverage selection, other than coffee, is a bit pricey.
Yummy Brunch. I've always had a good meal at Cora's but it is a bit pricey. They have some healthier menu items, which is nice. However, there are other cheaper breakfasts to be had which taste just as good.
Coras remains one of my favorite bruch restaurants. It offers a colorful and bright decor to math it's colorful food. The sweet crepes are where Cora shines: the summer of 69 with assorted fruits or the waffle are my favorites. I agree with the precious reviewer that if your going to advertise fresh orange juice you should deliver instead of the tropicana juce they give you. Besides that small point, if you put that aside i'd give Cora the number two spot next to Kawaii Crepes.
I love their menu. Lots of pictures to help you decide. The best part is all the fresh fruit.
Worth checking out for brunch. Every time I travel to Montreal I wind up at Chez Cora's at least once for the Western size breakfasts. You can't get a big plate of meat, eggs, potatoes, pancakes and fruit anywhere else on the island! Ironically, the Cora's in Winnipeg are not as generous as their eastern counterparts, but the food is fantastically fresh and decent. Staff are quick and friendly but usually hurried off their feet dealing with the perpetual lineups. There are wide assortments of delicious crepes, omelets, quiches and pancakes/waffles all served with a dizzying array of fresh fruits and sides. If you don't mind the inevitable wait for everything from a table to the cheque and aren't afraid of refilling your own and your neighbors coffee from time to time it's worth a trip.
Good times. I went to Coras for th first time a few months ago and it was awesome ... I had a savory breakfast along with a smoothie and a small swet dessert ... *drools*

Fantastic Dining Experience!. When I lived in Montreal, I always had fantastic experiences with the Chez Cora's. Now in Winnipeg, I have the same experience. Consistantly hot, well prepared food with nice plating. Excellent service. Sometimes a long wait to get it in but it's worth it.
Breakfast at Cora's. Yum yum!
Fresh!. I hate going to breakfast places and getting wilted mushy fruit in a cup sitting in water. I pay how much for that? For a tiny bit more go where the fruit is freshly cut and abundant. My daughter is a picky eater and usually eats less than half her meal at restaurants. At Cora's she is the first one to finish her entire meal.
It's a really quaint, really busy breakfast restaurant, known for fresh fruit and homemade comfort foods. I've been to Chez Cora a few times and always loved it, but I've never been as a foodie adult, so a visit was necessary. Cora's is CRAZY busy on Sunday mornings at 10:30. Understandable, because that's like.. prime breakfast time, but it is a zoo in there. I took pictures! (actually, Jordan did, because I'm too much of a pansy.) That gives you a general idea of how packed it was in there. While waiting in line, we discovered that they do "call-aheads". It's like making yourself a spot in line, you can call when you leave home, and you'll most likely only have to wait a couple minutes for a table. I will definitely be taking advantage of that next time, and avoid waiting for 25 minutes in the cram
Great service and a seemingly endless variety for breakfast. Most come with fresh fruit. The coffee is great as well. Can be lineups during peak hours. The Waverly location is fairly large so no lineups for us on a Sunday at noon. Highly recommend!
Hubby and I had a most enjoyable meal. I need crutches right now and have a full leg splint. We were able to sit comfortably in a booth. Our server Elizabeth was kind and more than cared for our needs. The food was hot, fresh and delicious. We will definitely be back again!
Amazing place for breakfast.
Food tasted very good and the quantity was more than fulfilling for one person and the staffs were very welcoming. They had a great ambience too.
Food ordered:
1. Brunch burger with poutine (don’t have a picture of the poutine cause I started eating it before clicking the pictures)
2. Surprise French Toast (the single picture)
3. Strawberry Smoothie
4. Mango Smoothie
This is by far my favourite Cora's restaurant in the city. We travel all the way from St. Vital for brunch. They service is always to notch, the food made exactly the way you want, and not to mention hot, fresh and delicious!
This review is specific to Cora's on Waverley. The food was well prepared, waitress was nice and clearly passionate about her job. Restaurant seemed understaffed, trouble with keeping water/coffee cups full. Otherwise a good experience.
. amazing food and amazing service. FYI.. GPS 2 times.. sent us to Taylor St for some reason.
Marci was amazing, the food was large portions and delicious. I would definitely recommend.
Tables were comfortable to sit at, and we’ll worth the drive to the other side of the city. Great food, great service. Best lunch date in a while
