    Loved this place when I lived around the corner, I got the know the girls that worked there and could either call in an order to go or have it ready when I got there. Great window seats so that my pooch could come along and I could watch him out the window.

    Greasy spoon diner in corktown, the Breakfast Grill is cheap, cheerful with a focus on you guessed it, breakfast fare. The decor is barebones casual, open and inviting with plenty of neighborhood regulars and families inhabiting the joint on weekends. Perfect for a quick weekend breakfast meal though maybe not so much for a leisurely brunch with friends.

    I've been here a few times to chow down and they do their stuff well here, the omlettes are fluffy and big and my bacon and eggs are always done right. For $6.25, you get 3 eggs and not 2 but 5! pieces of soggy partially crisped bacon with some of their wondeful roti-style hashbrowns and toast on the side. Service is quick and cute although some of the staff are invariably eye candy for the male regulars!

    Now called Figs, it has been cleaned up nicely and stands out on the corner of Parliment/Queen. Very friendly and prompt servers.

    We're in here almost every sunday and usually order the 3 eggs & bacon/sausage. Eggs are light and fluffy, meat is usually more than I can eat (4/5 pieces), and the hashbrowns are to die for. Bad coffee, but fresh squeezed juice is available.
    Omlettes are pretty big, usually more than I can finish and the french toast is good but not outstanding.

    This bright, clean and cheery place is good for a quick breakfast.  They don't seem entirely set up for take-out but they were more than accommodating to us and the variations we asked for (bagel instead of bread for my breakfast sandwich but they did forget the tomato).  Much of the menu is egg-based (they've posted articles about how it's actually good to eat eggs often) but there are several meatless options.

    Eventhough the establishment has changed hands at least 3 times now I believe, it really hasn't changed the quality of the food which is, well, pretty standard breakfast with nothing that stands out as exceptional at all. You can generally always find seats, and the service is pretty fast. I suppose I'd say sure, if you're in the area, want to eat some pretty regular breakfast stuff, a coffee and a newspaper, it's a place for you. Prices have slowly gone up since it first opened, although quality is the same as well as portions. Also it seems a fair number of locals call it a place for brunch and the crowd is pretty mixed. I'd say give it a try if you're in the area, but there are more interesting breakfast places around. All said and done, average food and fast.
