Joe's grill - Surrey

Have had breakfast here for years. Great food and great portions!!!! Great customer service also!!! I recommend this place. I love the pancakes, first time I ever had banana flavoured pancakes there were incredible!!!

It is not a fancy place - not appealing. However, The service is good and the sandwich is delicious. I had lunch there - a vegetarian sandwich. It is a packed place but the wait is not long. I observe that service is priority. You can judge a good eatery (most times) by eating where the residents eat. You won't regret.

My wife suggested this as a place to go for breakfast. We walked in and it had that local feel to it, plenty of people but still a few tables left over. We sat at the back and had someone come over very quickly with tap water. I had a full breakfast which was excellent, plenty of eggs and sausages, bacon, home fries, and coffee. Not overcooked and not much oil so i wasn't slimy, but still easy to eat and no requirement to douse it in sauce to make it edible!When we went to pay the bill I was pleasantly surprised as to the cost - way less than I expected.

When we stay nearby in Vancouver, this is our everyday breakfast place. Yes, it's a diner. No, it is not fancy.The food and service are really just exactly what we like in a diner. The staff is very helpful and friendly (Particularly Claire, the "lass from Essex" mentioned in another review). The whole staff made a point of greeting our little granddaughter. She liked them a lot and that's good enough for me.Oh yeah, the breakfasts... No complaints from me or my family. Nicely cooked eggs, sourdough(!) toast, bacon, potatoes or fruit, a wrap, and omelets. The french toast was terrific, corned beef hash hit the right notes and the coffee was hot and strong.Bottom line: my kind of place.Don't look for luxury, just really good food and great service at a very reasonable price.They serve lunch and dinner too, but we haven't tried them.

Avoiding wheat means I haven't had an Eggs Benedict for longer than I care to remember. So it was good to be able to get tucked into a plate of avocado and tomato benny with gf toast after all this time! My compadre has a mighty plate of blueberry pancakes which looked amazing and apparently tasted as they looked
