Boom Breakfast & Company

My mother and ordered a breakfast with a side of pancakes. The breakfast was fantastic. But the pancakes were terrible. It was clearly a mix with water. Yuck.
The server was fantastic. She took very good care of us and even suggested a better option price wise for what we wanted.

Had the oh canada eggs Benny it was amazing! Home fries great. Cappuccino was tasty. Server was super friendly. Great experience!

Every time I come here I really enjoy this place from the service to the food. For anyone that enjoys potatoes please come here for their version of home fries called frites. Crispy on the outside but soft and fluffy from the inside a perfect side dish to anything that you have for breakfast.
The only concern NOT complaint since every popular restaurant deals with is it gets extremely busy and obviously that creates long line ups and long wait times. So I’ve made my review based on service and food.

Went to boom because the line up was too long at Emma’s Kitchen. One thing I like about our area is the abundant choices for sunday brunch. Asked the host what is the most popular dishes and was recommended to have the Boom Benny and Apprentice Burger. I had the Benny and it was not impressive. The smoked salmon did not taste fresh. The hollandaise was plain. The english muffin was hard to cut through. I did appreciate that it had fresh spinach on top of perfectly cooked egg and the Boom frite had an awesome taste. I had a bite of the apprentice burger. I thought it was ok. They did cook the egg on it just as how my gf like it, over medium. My gf did not think the salad was fresh and the sweet potato fries tasted similar to McCain fries. Overall, it wasn’t that great.

It’s been a while since I’d been here — couple years.
My sisters and I popped in a week ago.
SO fresh! It was delicious!
I LOVE their smoothie options, including the CAPPUCCINO FRAPPE, hell-​o!
We’ve had their nearly everything on the menu at some point (my sisters aren’t veg like me), except the sandwiches.
Fast friendly service.
We don’t live in this neighbourhood anymore but all agreed that the drive’s worth it.
WHAT a difference from the places we’ve tried so far around York Mills & Sheppard.
I had the Farmer Gianni, my sisters had the Eggs Florentine and French Toast.
All was great. The fruit is real and it’s fresh!

We really enjoyed our breakfast here. Went on a weekday morning with my boyfriend, and the service was fast and very good!
I had the sausage, eh and my boyfriend had the breakfast burrito. We left feeling very satisfied!

Average chain restaurant experience. Food is good but obviously on the more expensive side compared to breakfast at mom & pop shops but Boom is open on Sundays — which I don’t recommend because it gets super packed, line up is crazy. The entrance isn’t designed the best for this.
I came in this Sunday. Service was mediocre. Our server forgot my tea. Took her 20 minutes to bring it. Another 30 minutes to bring our food. She actually never introduced herself so I never got her name.
Point is — average food, a bit on the pricier side. If you want breakfast, go for it.

Ordered the steak and eggs, I pretty much filled myself up with the McCain Wedges and eggs, the steak looked like it was boiled no flavour and half of it was fat.
Not worth the 50 bucks for two people.

Consistently disappointing. Latest trip waited 10 minutes in a not-​full restaurant to be seated. 15 minutes after being seated we finally got coffee (which is weak and yucky). Corn syrup instead of maple syrup and pancakes from a box + McCain Superfries? You make one meal, Boom and you can’t make any of it from scratch? Bacon was cold, floppy and greasy. When it was sent back to be cooked and warmed came back to us with the bite we’d taken out. So basically they put a half-​eaten piece of bacon, germs and all on the grill and then re-​served it? Server was slow, basically friendly but honestly 15 mins for a cup of coffee is too long. Do yourselves a favour and stick to Emma’s down the street. I thought there was a price difference — there isn’t — just a huge difference in quality, flavour and service. Yikes.

I usually sit at the bar since it’s not far from my house and the breakfast is good. The hollandaise is flavourful, I dig it. I enjoy the smoothies as well in a I’m sorry about last night liver, here’s some apology nutrition kind of way.
Assuming it’s not packed I would expect quick service and good food.

Breakfast was good but standard — nothing different or amazing. Tons of options to choose from though. Food portion is just right and the service was good. Again the food isn’t memorable but it’ll fuel you up for sure!

Everything about boom is pretty middle of the road, the service, the food, the drink selection. They’re not killin it but it’s a good place to sit down and have some easy breakfast

Good breakfast/​brunch for relatively little money. Get there early though, the line up gets a little long

I’ve been here for brunch more times than I can count and have not been disappointed. Their quality food and service is consistent and it has become my go-​to brunch spot when in the area. Their breakfast sausage = favourite.

You can not beat this breakfast joint !!
Great price point, food is very fresh, service is ok, could he better, but what im mostly interested in is the food, it really is a great place to have a good breakfast with your friends. Highly recommend the good morning smoothie its a blast of fruits in your mouth.

Originally wanted to check out Emma’s, but it was packed (and a 45 minute wait) so we walked over to Boom. I’ve been to their other locations around the city — it’s your pretty standard breakfast menu here. The food items are pretty reasonably priced. I ordered a smoothie with my meal (chick-​a-​dilla); for $ 5, it was a little expensive. Anyway, I work near the Yonge-​Eglinton Boom so I’ll be going there instead of this location.
Good for: breakfast

So my friends live in the area around here (Wychwood Heights its called? I unno. St Clair West seems better.)and this is their go — to spot for brunch. I suggested we go to Brunhworks, but they told me this place was a lot cheaper, so $$$ yes.
We waited about 45 minutes for a table in that super cramped little area. That was a mission and a half on its own. plus the cost of being hungover and it was snowing outside (As usual) so I wasn’t the happiest per say.
Anyways, we sat down to a cute booth (super props to them fro having a booth that I actually fit into. super props for that)
We had :
1. The Westtern Sandwich — This was. okay. The eggs were overcooked for my taste, and there wasn’t a top of toppings. The bread could’ve used some butter, but yea. The boom frites were amazing though. Super super super good.
2. The Chick-​a-​dilla — This was a a breakfast quesidilla I guess. It was quite tiny I guess, bbut the guac was AWESOME.
3. The Power Breakfast — Standard fare
4. My friend’s Omelette.- didn’t get to try this.
The place is cute, but the breakfast was under-​whelming. The servers were super super cute though.
Don’t come here during the rush rush hours like we did, but it’s a decent place I guess. We’ll be back here soon

I was here for a breakfast meeting last week. The food was fine. It’s hard to screw up eggs and bacon. I’m avoiding wheat at the moment so I ordered no toast. It didn’t occur to me that the fried potatoes listed on the menu would be covered in floury batter. Where I’m from those things aren’t called fried potatoes, they are called potato wedges or taters. Why can’t things be labled clearly? Anyway, it’s my own fault, I should have asked. The service was ok. The only hiccup was when I had to ask three times for splenda before the server brought it. I don’t even know why they hide it in the back. If they put it on the table with the sugar the whole thing could have been avoided. This place is average. Nice if you want to sit down with a friend and have breakfast. Nothing fancy to see here, though.

(3.5÷5) fairly good, but pricey. First off this place opens earlier than most on a Saturday morning so it is a good option for early risers. Once you settle in and look at their menu, you will see quite a vast array of yummy options. The egg florentine and smoke salmon (Benny Boom) is tasty and their pancakes are light, fluffy and sweet.
However, the fruit accompaniments left much to desire. The service was fair, however our waitress could have been a little more attentive (note this was first visit). The prices are noticeably high which makes this an expensive breakfast spot.

What made me think trying another BOOM restaurant was going to change my opinion?
I thought tIhe Eglinton location was a nightmare (you can see previous review) so I thought uhhhh let’s try this location instead.
Same shit different pile.
Food was meh — service was decent — bill was a little overpriced.
I think my breakfast relationship with BOOM is over.
