Went to this location for first time. Was kind of disappointed. Food was meant and service was lack luster. Server was nice but certainly not motivated and was forgetful, not remembering to bring items asked for back to table.

This is the worst Wimpy’s I have ate in. Love Wimpy’s but the Scarborough location is so bad. Home fries taste so old, peameal was not right. I had to sent it back, the picture tells the whole story. First peameal was brown looking. Saving grace sausages were good the only thing that was hot on my plate. They definitely survive on their lunches not their breakfasts. Service was horrible, got my food b4 my utensils and I eventually had to do it myself and go get it. Took 10 minutes to get to my table and the restaurant was empty. Now I know why.

Excellent service. Excellent Food. Excellent prices. There is somewhat of a musty smell as you enter the lobby waiting to be seated as it is an old building. But I would still give it 5 out of five as it is not a huge deal breaker for me

We had the best server. She was funny and interactive. The food was very good and great staff. A great experience for my first time!

The food was horrible, the sweet potato fries were soft, the battered fish was more batter than fish and extremely oily. The coleslaw looked like vomit and the coffee was the worst I've ever tasted. However the waitress was very pleasant. I was disappointed to say the least. I ate at Wimpy's in Bathurst in 2020. The food and service was great. So I had a standard to compare this on to.

Worst breakfast ever. Not just not made to taste, but NOT freshly cooked food. Food tasted like it was cooked on a dirty grill. Bacon was definitely NOT made same day, it had to be at least a day old to a point that you could hold it vertically. Pancake breakfast and club sandwich were ordered. Probably worst eating out experience, simply gross. Would like to hear from owner/manager.

This was only my second time dining at Wimpy's Diner, albeit a different location. The reviews weren't great but I was hungry and close to this place. Maybe I should have tried somewhere else. Read on... There was a sign out front advertising a patio and that's what really caught my attention. Walking in through the front door, the place was dark. There was somebody lying down on one of the bench seats and he jumped up when he saw me. He turned out to be my server. He directed me to their patio through the side door. It turns out, I was the only guest at the time but two tables out there hadn't been cleared of dirty dishes. My inner voice was telling me to leave but I was tired and hungry. How bad could this be? My server soon returned with cutlery and a menu. I chose the Hot Hamburger, an old-school dish consisting of a 10oz burger patty with gravy on sliced bread, mashed potatoes, and vegetables. While waiting for my order, I started noticing things in this dining area. It was a mess! There were used napkins, menus, straws, creamer containers, etc. strewn about the patio. One of the umbrellas was torn. Trust me, it wasn't good but no need to post any embarrassing photos about it. After waiting a bit longer than I had anticipated, my server showed up to apologize for the wait and said the cook prepared the incorrect dish so I had to wait a bit longer. My order finally showed up. It looked like a generous serving, kinda like what I was expecting - kinda, sorta. The gravy was very lumpy and salty, obviously made from a mix. The mashed potatoes were dry and cold. So were the veggies. I suspect these were from the incorrect plate that was made earlier. The meat was as I had expected, not bad but not great. This whole dish would have been okay if the sides and gravy were better. The service turned out to be okay - polite and attentive. Would I come back? No. With zero customers, they had more than enough time to clean up the place and turn on some lights to make the place look more inviting. Two customers came in as I was leaving. I was tempted to warn them but I figured this place needed the business.
