St. Joe's Cafe

Staffing shortages are miserable. At least that's what I believe was today's Occam's Razor. We called at least a half dozen times to pre order, no answer. Arrived to find only one poor girl taking in person orders and making drinks on a busy weekend morning while ignoring the incessantly ringing phone. The food came out reasonably quick, even for the 2 people in the kitchen running around making 615151 orders. But with short staffing on a busy day comes an obligatory decrease in the quality of product. But even on these days, there still should be quality assurance limits. Receiving your much anticipated breakfast order should not be met with disdain on unwrapping the meal. I had such high hopes for the pumpkin waffle sandwhich to only unwrap 2 half burnt waffles with some half cooked egg and bacon in between. Even on a busy day with a skeleton crew, this should not have come off the line and considered good to go. There's still a price the customer has to pay. I would've gladly waited another 5 minutes for a new waffle and my meal to be cooked vs what I got.

The absolute best breakfast sandwiches on homemade biscuits. Easy to get to go or enjoy eating in at the cafe. The portion will last you until second breakfast comes around.

Great food! I got the famous Bennie and my boyfriend got their bagel with cream cheese. Not a lot of seating best to get there as soon as they open if you want to sit inside to eat. The famous Bennie is definitely the closest to a NOLA Beignet that I have found if I was to get them again I would ask for lite powdered sugar, their raspberry sauce was amazing!

Wow 👌 10 out of 10. Best breakfast sandwich to date. I ordered the waffle joe and wow again. The waffle, the hashbrown, the eggs everything cooked to perfection. It's a small hole in the wall place but def a must to stop and grab a waffle joe to go. There coffee is super fresh and flavorful as well. I will def bring others here to try it out.

WOW. So glad I found this place. Just moved to Scarborough downs and so far every restaurant/eatery has not disappointed. This breakfast sandwich and local roasted coffee hit the spot, well done! Service was quick and on point. See you guys very soon to work my way down the menu !
