Had a great breakfast. Got the smoked meat and eggs with a side of baked beans and a coffee. Everything was very good, tasted like home cooking. Total was just over $20, definitely worth it. Service was excellent, and I loved all the egg paintings/decor. Think I'm going to go everyday I'm visiting Hamilton

The Egg & I and it completely lived up to the hype! This is exactly what you want from a classic breakfast spot. The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was cooked to perfection using high-quality, fresh ingredients. The coffee was hot and constantly refilled, and the portions were generous, definitely no one leaves hungry! What really made the experience stand out was the excellent service. Our server was friendly, attentive, and had great recommendations. We never had to wait long for anything. Best of all, the prices are very reasonable for the quality and amount of food you get. It’s clear this place is focused on value and a great customer experience, not just turning tables. If you’re looking for a reliable spot for a fantastic breakfast served with a smile, look no further.

Incredible atmosphere & great food. I am biased because I went to Egg & I when I was a kid, i got inspired by their artworks and unique dining areas which always made me want to keep coming back to Egg & I. I have not been to this location since I was very young and it is safe to say the food tastes even better than what I remembered and I brought my boyfriend here who also went as a child. Food came very quick and no wait to be seated even though it was busy. We were both blown away by the delicious home-fries, they are excellent. I had the Eggs Benny which is a great price and extremely well made. Hollandaise sauce was amazing. If you want a taste of home I highly recommend Egg & I to fulfill your needs. Chef deserves a raise, waitress was very nice to us as well even told us our food looked really good :) we will be back.
