    With easy parking easy access this very simple laid out restaurant offers great breakfaces at a great price. The staff was great it was quite comfortable inside. For breakfast it's everything you want my wife found the poached eggs to be perfect. I found their French toast to be dead on perfect. What I found was every portion of my food was equally and properly cooked at the right temperature when served to me. Lots of room at this place properly laid out.

    It was our first times at Bridgette’s and we were not disappointed! The restaurant is cozy and very clean. The bacon was not over salty and the pea meal was cooked to perfection - most places I go, it’s over-cooked. My husband enjoyed the pancakes. They were light and fluffy.The price is very reasonable and Bridgette is a delight! We will definitely be back!

    Nice little restaurant for a family meal. Not too fancy. Hands on business by the owner Bridgette. Just happened upon it while in the area. I had a Mediterranean omelet and home fries. Lots of soft feta cheese. Happy with the chance to go there.

    This place is in a very normal mini-plaza, and the restaurant will not cause you to do back flips… HOWEVER, this is the perfect example of a GREAT BREAKFAST!!! Excellent coffee, incredible home fries, and the service is so good! Friendly faces, lots of coffee “top ups” - when you are in Oshawa…this is the GO TO PLACE!!

    During a trip with my family to Toronto, I stumbled on this hidden gem along the 401, I was very pleased with the service. It is conveniently located, the food is reasonably priced, and the service was awesome. If you are in town or driving through, please stop by for some great food. Next time I’m in town I will definitely stop in. My family liked the fact that it feels like we were eating at home.

    Bridgette was there to greet us. It was nice speaking with her and we came to know that she was also born in my native place (Kolkata, India). The food was delicious, decent in quantity. Definitely would recommend for their home fries.

    I wish that I started coming here years ago, it’s only a short walk from my house. The place is very clean and the staff are very friendly and, the service is top notch. Prices are fair, portions are decent and the food is great. They have a really good Eggs Benedict, the sauce is amazing! I’ll definitely be coming here more often.

    First time in. Food was great. Price was more than reasonable. And I had the good fortune to be there when the owner was there and man she runs hard and is always smiling. Great vibe. Will not be last time.

    My son and I visited this diner after his swimming lessons. He had the cowboy burger with fries. it has onion rings and fresh white onions in it*. He said it was comparable to Harvey's. I ordered the small eggs Benedict done soft with sauce on the side. Small has 2 poached eggs, Canadian bacon, served in an english muffin. Unfortunately the sauce was lathered on it and the waitress noticed once she brought it to me. She offered to have it remade but I declined as I didn't want food to go to waste. When I cut into the eggs they were both cooked to medium, a little disappointed but again continued eating. Hollandaise sauce is sometimes strong but this was mild so that was nice. The eggs had a slight metallic taste which was distracting to the meal. My potato wedges were spot on, coffee was hot. My son wants to return, and when or if we do, I'll stay away from the poached eggs. I caught a glance of part of the neighbouring table and I need to say I was highly impressed by the thick slices of (what looked like beefsteak) tomatoes 🍅

    Great place to eat. Nice family owns it and always enjoy my meals here. Bridgette & her daughter Melissa do a great job. Always have a laugh here too. Good people always attend as well. Bridgette is a good soul, she helps feed those with mental health issues etc!

    We needed a last minute spot to feed a group of 20 for our hockey team. I didn't think we'd get in anywhere but Bridgette was happy to have us. She put tables together, called in extra staff and made everyone feel welcome. Great service. Great good. They didn't mess up a single order and she was even fantastic with all the kids. I couldn't give this place more praise.

    Family of 6 stopped in for breakfast. Location is not far off 401 and worth the exit! Server was the only person in front and handled the entire dining area with ease. Seems like a lot of the customers are regulars & are known by name. Very hearty breakfast with large portions. We passed through while visiting from the states so sadly, we won’t be back. Recommend A+

    Stopped by on the way to Ottawa. The food was delicious and homemade. We loved the roast beef sandwich and pancakes. Very nice service and she gave the kids a popsicle when we left. Would definitely return if we are in the area!

    One of the best breakfasts I’ve had in a long time. The lady was super friendly and it was pretty quick for take out. I also like how they don’t use styrofoam containers either. Price was really reasonable as well, will definitely be returning. Hidden gem

    Bridgett's has the best value for your money when it comes to food. The food is very tasty with generous portions and a reasonable price to match. I am a truck driver and Bridgett's is one of the best restaurants in Canada that I have found and I make it a point to stop in when I am in the area. The service is excellent and Melissa and Bridgett will always greet you with a smile

    My wife and I were visiting Oshawa for a friend's 25 wedding anniversary. We stayed at the Courtyard by Marriott and need a place to eat the next day. It was exactly what we needed. Big portions great price wonderful staff. Love supporting family business. If you are visiting Oshawa and need a good place to eat a good breakfast/diner type food that is just good period look no further. If you are a local you already know this place is a good place and are already going there.

    So, so good. The home potatoes were crispy and well seasoned, omelette was perfectly made, crispy bacon, and fluffy pancakes. Not to mention the waitress was so kind!

    On our way home from a bachelor weekend in Toronto. We stopped in at Bridgette's family restaurant for a quick bite to eat on our way back to Ottawa! Fanatic environment, extremely clean, great service and excellent food. Definitely worth checking out! Thanks Bridgette.

    We stopped for a quick lunch on our way to Ottawa. Food was great, and the host was really friendly, and this place had a cute homie vibe. Definitely recommend!

  • 5/5 Steve R. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a nice little family run restaurant that is quite and quaint place. Not very busy both times I was there but the waitress Melissa... was very friendly and professional and had a great persona about her. Definitely service with a smile and she does it all herself. The food was really good both times I was there. I went for breakfast both times and had Eggs Benedict and a Mediterranean Omelet. I definitely will go back again and again for a quick good all around breakfast.

    Bridgette's is a great place to enjoy your meal. The food is clearly made from scratch and tastes delicious. The dining area is open, light & cheerful. The staff are very welcoming & friendly. The prices are very reasonable as well. If you live in Oshawa, you have driven by. Do yourself a favor, stop in to eat, the food is absolutely awesome. Cheers!!!

    Always one of my favorite parts of coming to the area. I love the food, the atmosphere, and Bridgette herself is SUCH a doll! Highly recommend.

    This is one of my first experience in a family restaurant, and it was lovely . The staff were very friendly. They found me a spot to sit when the restaurant was almost full. Definitely recommend as good place to have a breakfast. They have variety of options.
