Wimpy's Diner - Whitby

In the past I've had decent service at Wimpy's in spite of their price point, but on the weekend of March 12, I decided to take my son downtown for a breakfast. Our usual place was closed for renovations so we went across to Wimpy's. The place was surprisingly full and we grabbed a couple of seats at the counter. From what I could see there were only 2 servers and one person working the grill. The older of the two servers said she would be right with us, but never was. Not even coffee. I actually wound up taking my son out and going elsewhere. Trying to explain to a 7 y/o why you're leaving a restaurant where you've been waiting isn't the easiest task. Pretty sure we won't be back.

Went out looking for a breakfast diner, and none of us could remember the last time we were at Wimpys so we made it a destination...and it's gone. Another restaurant is in its place. :

It took 45 minutes to receive our early lunch, which was much too long for a casual dining experience. The food was mediocre and the staff did not apologize for the slow service. The bill came to $50 for two adults and two children, which was pricey for a diner. There are better dining options in Whitby, so I would recommend avoiding this restaurant.

I like going out for breakfast (and lunch and dinner) and have tried all of the local choices. Last week I tried Wimpy's for the first time and was impressed. I had one of the combos which came with 3 eggs, ham, sausage, potatoes and toast. The food was very good fluffy eggs, lots of meat, crisp potatoes and toast. The price was excellent as well and I don't see any reason to return to the other breakfast restaurants. The breakfast menu had so many choices and you could easily come here for weeks and order something different every time.

Wimpy's is our favorite breakfast spot in Whitby. The service is exceptional, with some of the best waitresses who are attentive, friendly, and genuinely happy to make your visit enjoyable. The prices are reasonable for a delicious home-cooked breakfast. My go-to order is the bacon and eggs, which includes three eggs, choice of toast, homefries, and choice of breakfast meat. I always request my bacon crispy, and it is cooked perfectly every time. The turkey bacon is also a standout option. The coffee is excellent as well. We love snagging a window seat to watch the hustle and bustle on Brock Street. We can't wait to return to Wimpy's soon!
