    Love this place for breakfast. Great price and amazing food. Everything I order here is amazing. Coffee is fresh and customer service is fantastic. New addition in their menu was the cheese burger. At first I thought, their known for their breakfast but what the heck lets try it anyways. To my surprise it was actually delicious. A must try. The Eggs Benedict though is definitely my favourite. Something about the sauce, I can never have enough.

    I was visiting the Welland area for the day and had looked up highly rated restaurants within the general area, I'm a bit of a foodie and was anticipating a great breakfast based off their menu. I arrived at Benedicts and noticed right off the bat a strong bleachy/chlorine smell that just assaulted my nostrils as I stepped through the door. We were seated but we couldn't help but focus on the chlorine/bleach smell. Our waitress arrived at our table and politely greeted us and brought us coffee.. She was friendly and attentive, so I found no fault with our server she was impeccable. I received my food pretty quickly...bacon was cooked perfectly and eggs were cooked through but it ends there. My hashbrowns tasted like they had sat in water for 2 to 3 days prior to being fried up. There were parts of the hash browns that tasted cold, like there was inconsistent temperature going on possibly microwaved? Not sure.. hash browns just did not taste freshly fried nor were they crisp, they were soft and tasteless. Another thing that kind of bothered me, was all the staff congregated around the front desk, I found that kind of unprofessional. The only one I saw effectively "working" was the server. She was also the only one who said goodbye upon exit. I probably would not revisit and I'm actually shocked it has a 4.5 star rating. Definately room for improvement. The server is the only exceptional experience I had at this restaurant..

    Fantastic experience at Benedict’s this morning. In town for hockey tournament and the restaurant was located very close to the arena. What I ordered: 1 x Bennys Breakfast w/ Baked Beans What I liked: Service ✅ everyone is working hard to accommodate guests and take their orders. Quality ✅ I can complain about the breakfast at all, top notch. Homefries✅ I typically order French fries but forgot to on this occasion and was presently surprised. Some breakfast spots undercook their homefries but that wasn’t the case here. The only critique on the restaurant is they could keep a lot of heat inside the building in the winter if they built an enclosure outside the front door. It can be a bit cold inside for some people especially on a busy day of customer traffic. My only regret was that I didn’t get the Egg’s Benny which is famous for the homemade sauce. Maybe my sons team will play here next year and we can check it out!!💯

    As far as BREAKFAST goes its a little pricey but for good reason. The quality makes the price more than worth it. Also the price isnt outrageous, just a little above your average. It was easily the best breakfast Ive had in such a long time. I personally got the PLT which was killer along side the basic egg and homefries. The home fries were unreal and the scrambled eggs were perfect. My family got the Belgium waffle, french toast and bacon. All were absolutely amazing. The service was also good considering it was full at all times.

    I stopped here for breakfast and what a great experience it was. I ordered the eggs Benedict since the place was called Benedict's and wasn't disappointed. The waitress was such an amazing woman and handled the guests kindly during the busy rush. I had a great experience here and would recommend stopping in for breakfast if you can.

  • 5/5 Sarah C. 9 months ago on Google
    Service was amazing. You feel like family here and the atmosphere is close knit in a warm. I watched all the booths and tables get cleaned head to toe including sugar, salt, and pepper. You feel like family here being treated with love and care. Food was amazing and as our waitress said “made with love”. Wouldn’t agree more, perfect to take the family. Please note it is Cash only, so before going out stop at the bank before for an amazing experience.

    Went to Benedicts for breakfast with my family, had the greatest experience. The coffee was fresh, the meals that we ordered was so delicious. The staff was so friendly and kind, they kept checking on us if we needed anything. Definitely going back. Definitely going back with the family.

    My family and I hadn't been to Benedict's for a few years since moving to Florida. I had done a review in 2017 and I'm happy to say that this experience was just as good if not better! Since the 1950's my family had been repeat customers at another restaurant in the area, especially for breakfast and wanted to be nostalgic. However the other restaurant didn't open until 9am! Too late for us to eat breakfast; and we appreciated Benedicts was open at 7am. It's also a big deal that The Big Meal includes home fries & sausage (which is a must for me with pancakes!) which I believe years ago the competition "Bushman Special" included but doesn't anymore. Benedicts isn't too greasy either. I took the option of rye bread also included in the Big Meal, and the pancakes over the French Toast. The 2 pancakes were so fluffy and had the perfect taste & texture. My family and I are looking forward to enjoying another visit when we come back up in September. Please keep doing what your doing! If you haven't tried Benedict's give them a visit for your next breakfast get together and you won't be disappointed. I would say they are definitely our new "KING OF KING ST." breakfast destination!

    Always an exceptional experience here, the waitresses are amazing, the food is excellent, the atmosphere is cozy! We (myself and my youngest child) visit weekly and it's never a bad experience. Very homey feel!

  • 5/5 Suzette A. 1 year ago on Google
    My parents and I stopped in just after my Dad's surgery. He thoroughly enjoyed his French toast and coffee, while my Mom had her eggs,bacon,toast and tomato. I myself enjoyed an omelet, toast and home fries. Coffees were very good, although I didn't find it too hot. Wil continue stopping in.

    One of the best breakfast restaurants I've been to. I go strictly for the eggs Benedict. Always cooked perfectly. The only thing I can really say is that for the price they are stingy with the peameal as well as regular bacon. Good coffee.

  • 5/5 Eric N. 11 months ago on Google
    I've been here several times over the past couple months. The food has always been great, the service is always reliable, and the atmosphere is great for a hole-in-the-wall breakfast joint. It's not a cheap spot (likely $12-16 pp if you have coffee), but the food and service are good, so it's worth the price.

  • 5/5 Leigh R. 10 months ago on Google
    Stopped for breakfast and Benedict's immediately moved to the top of the kids' "favorite places we've eaten in 🍁" list. The food was delicious, and the service was fast and friendly. The diner had a small-town feel, bright, open and welcoming. Our family of 6 would definitely go back given the chance.

  • 4/5 Angela P. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent buttermilk pancakes!! My husband had the eggs Benedict. Said they were good but a little bland. Restaurant was clean. Service was good and waitress, attentive. Will definitely be back to try something else . One comment: I'm surprised that in this day and age that its cash only?

  • 5/5 A M. 1 year ago on Google
    This little hidden gem serves delicious breakfast. Try to get there early on weekend mornings. I highly recommend the eggs Benny. All were very delicious.

  • 1/5 Lisa D. 1 year ago on Google
    The staff are very rude and ignorant and the food is extremely poor quality. The Benedict sauce was just disgusting. Definitely the worst I've ever had. Save your money dont eat here

  • 2/5 Ocalahorsetrader 1 year ago on Google
    Not offered a refill of coffee once during our one and only visit to this place. I’m being generous with my two stars. We eat breakfast out a lot, never experienced this before. Stacked in Welland, or Pelham St diner in Fonthill are much better choices.

  • 5/5 Amy D. 1 year ago on Google
    I tried Benedict's Breakfast for the first time today. This is now my go-to breakfast place!! The staff was great! Customer service was the best, and the food was delicious. Oh...it is very affordable as well!

    Great little breakfast spot. Hollandaise could use some work, great rest of the plate though!

  • 5/5 Stan T. 1 year ago on Google
    I was looking for a traditional lunch / breakfast near the Welland Hospital. I recall the place I used to go to 15-20 years ago when I was on the road it was someplace near Ontario Street in the old canal It was called Benedict's What a nice surprise , still there, still open as many good old restaurants aren't. Peameal bacon and eggs,homefries, toast coffee hmmm Cooked just right,peameal bacon , home fry's done on the grill, perfect. rye Rye bread toast, coffee. Nice people, good food. Cute historical vibe

    We placed a big breakfast order for the team at my work and everybody loved it! Great food, friendly service, and they accommodated an early pickup for our takeout order. Huge thanks! :)

  • 5/5 Susañ M. 1 year ago on Google
    What a hidden gem! Had a very substantial meal and my husband had the regular breakfast that satisfied his robust appetite. Owner, John filled us in on the history of the restaurant, started by his aunt over 40 years ago. Our server Sherry was super! Definitely stop on your travels for traditional quick meals.

  • 5/5 Susan C. 1 year ago on Google
    We visited for breakfast and the food was excellent! I ordered a spinach & feta omelet with a side of bacon. The food was hot, fresh and prepared perfect! The service was excellent and the prices reasonable. We will definitely return!

😠 I ordered the fish and chips dinner. Sounds simple, but when I received my meal my fries were beyond salted, they were inedible. It was as if someone double salted them.
