PÜR & SIMPLE REVIEWS

We sat out on the patio and had a fantastic brunch. Cynthia was absolutely wonderful—friendly, attentive, make sure we were comfortable. She even brought our dog Stella a bowl of water, which we really appreciated. The food was delicious (loved the fresh fruit waffle and eggs on toast), and the atmosphere was perfect for a sunny day. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be back. Thanks Cynthia for making our visit extra special!.

I recently revisited this restaurant, and as always, the food and service were outstanding. Our server, Vincent, went above and beyond by recommending dishes he thought we’d love—and he nailed it. We tried the Canadian, The Big Three, and the Gourmet, and every bite was absolutely delicious. The restaurant itself was spotless and had a warm, cozy atmosphere. It’s no surprise they’re always busy when I stop by. I highly recommend checking out this location!.

Beyond exceptional. Our waitress Emma went above and beyond in both service and hospitality. 11/10. It's just that amazing. American sized breakfasts that will leave you beyond full!.

CORA BREAKFAST AND LUNCH RESTAURANT REVIEWS

We love Cora’s on Upper James!!! Great foot, and amazing service! Nelly is awesome and so friendly! These servers often have to put up with some pretty rough people who are just looking to complain or for a free meal. Yet they maintain a positive, friendly outlook in spite of it! Thank you for the hard work you do every day, making our visit like a mini-vacation!! The food is delicious and the presentation is beautiful. Will definitely be back! Kid-friendliness: Awesome kids meals that look great and taste delicious!.

We love Cora's on Upper James! The staff feels like family and we always feel cared for when we come to eat. Our server, Patrick, is just fantastic. He is always friendly, attentive, and warm. Practically a mind reader when it comes to bringing around that fresh, hot coffee. As one of our favourite local haunts, we always choose Cora's for our breakfast and brunch needs.

Our server Arees was outstanding he was kind, helpful and extremely patient. Food was amazing as well rich and flavourful. Did not take any time at all to be served my food. Even if your not a breakfast person WOULD 100% RECOMMEND.

SAINT JAMES REVIEWS

The coffee is one of the best around. The food is simple but delicious and well executed. Its refreshing to see a place that knows how to scramble and not overcook eggs. Ingredients seem fresh. Service is courteous and to the point. Small place so seating can be a challenge. Highly recommended after trying several times myself.

This quaint little spot has some of the best breakfast I've had in a while. It's a little spot that's easy to miss. Though the inside is a bit small, it's well worth the wait. Great service with amazing food ensures that this is a must try if you find yourself in the Hamilton area.

Incredible breakfast sandwiches and amazing coffee. Dining in and having a cooked breakfast is also a great idea! Only wish it was bigger and had more seating!.
