I visited OLD SCHOOL specifically for their legendary blueberry hill pancakes, and I’m so glad I did—it was totally worth the walk! The pancakes were huge and served with crispy bacon, making them rich, hearty, and incredibly satisfying. For around 20 CAD, the portion was definitely worth the price. The cafe is conveniently located just behind the bar area, which gives it a cool, tucked-away vibe. The staff were super friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. They even served water, which was a nice touch. If you’re craving a big, flavorful breakfast in a chill spot, this place is definitely a must-try!

The food and service were perfection! Our server was a delight, he had the best attitude and made the experience fabulous! The pancakes are heavenly, everything you hear about them is true and more. I also ordered a chai latte with a shot of biscoff which was absolutely divine. Some people in our party ordered a meal with eggs and smoked salmon which they said was really good as well. It’s a great brunch spot and I’ll definitely be coming back to try their mac n cheese!

I visited Old School specifically to try their Blueberry Hill pancakes, and they did not disappoint! The pancakes were absolutely delicious. I opted for pecans instead of bacon, and they added a perfect crunch to each bite. The balance of flavors was spot on, and the portion size was generous. What made the experience even better was the service. Our server, John, was spectacular! He was hilarious and made us feel right at home, turning a great meal into an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend Old School to anyone looking for amazing food and top-notch service. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!

Had a great experience with a big group here! They accept reservations which was super helpful. Our server was Daena and she was an absolute sweetheart. The milkshakes are HUGE and every dish we ordered we loved! Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

One of my favorite brunch places in the city. The blueberry pancakes are to die for 🤤 Their Chicken waffles are also good. I tried their Benny with fried chicken recently and I did not like it. The customer service is ok. Altho last time it was a little disappointing.

Ordered the legendary old school blueberry hill pancakes! Absolutely amazing!🥞 🙌 Fiance got the French toast and it was equally as great! We both got the cappuccino and loved it! I got the iced variation and she got it hot. Came with a yummy biscuit on top. We sat outdoors and it was very calming as we could smell the fresh morning air. There was a baby bird beside our table that was really cute and enhancing the outdoor vibes and we witnessed a few bees that liked the syrup🐝. The best way to start our morning before we headed to the ROM. We absolutely loved the outdoor vibes and decorations. The staff was great and everyone we interacted with was very nice!

Had such a lovely time eating brunch. Everything was great from food to service! I was surprised at how delicious the food was although, I wished I ordered a flavoured syrup for my iced latte - would recommend it to add some sweetness! They have patio during the spring/summer season. If you’d like some fresh air while having food, go for it :) Once again, thank you for the hospitality!

Old School offers a mixed dining experience. While most of the food was average, the chicken was a standout—really well-cooked and flavorful. The sandwich also had a nice mesh of flavors that worked well together. However, the waffles fell flat, lacking the spice that could have made them more exciting. The service was warm and attentive, adding to the experience, and the atmosphere was great, making it a nice spot to unwind. If you're craving good chicken and a nice vibe, this place is worth a visit, but some dishes might leave you wanting more.
