We had a great experience at Hometown Diner!
Service/Atmosphere:
The service was top notch, really friendly and positive staff. There was a great relaxed energy there!
Food:
The food was great and I loved my latte, too. We got the Huevos Rancheros and the Salmon Eggs Benedict and both were delicious. I enjoyed my Salmon Eggs Benedict and I've honestly never had asparagus cooked perfectly. The hashbrowns looked so good but were a bit underseasoned. However, I'd rather that than over seasoned generally because I can always add salt myself.
Wait time:
It was no surprise this restaurant was busy and the wait time was short, considering.
If you find yourself in downtown Saskatoon, definitely check it out!

Braved the frigid temperatures (-30°) to go have brunch at Hometown Diner. Was expecting it to be not as busy as they normally are on weeekends given the weather — but yet, this place was still bustling, and for good reason! 🤤
We arrived just after 12pm (2 people) and were able to get a bar top spot right away. Service was EXCELLENT 👏✨ constantly full cups of coffee, very attentive.
We tried a few dishes:
1) Fried chicken & pancakes ($22) — I had previously been SUCH a fan of their chicken and waffles dish, and knew they had recently changed up the plate to have pancakes instead. The chicken is still EQUALLY as good as before (so good), and the pancakes had copious amounts of blueberries — no shortage at all. Very impressed with the size of the meal.
2) Chicken Bacon Club w/ Hasbrowns ($20.50) - this sandwhich is a hidden gem. The zucchini in this sandwich is the key! I was skeptical but I’m SO HAPPY we gave this one a shot. Added some hot sauce on it for extra kick. Melty goodness. And so many hashbrown potatoes!
3) Brekkie Bun ($16) - my partner didn’t wait for the photo-opt… so all I have is a photo that shows how THICK this bun was. I don’t eat eggs myself, but he told me that this was very good (and once again came with a huge portion of hashbrown potatoes).
Great job to Kara and the team at Hometown! Thanks for the excellent food & service. 👏✨

A new place for brunch I enjoyed.
I have got my favourite breakfast stuff - pancakes. Thick and pretty strong style pancakes given me a new taste. I had and made thick soft sponge pancakes, totally different texture.
During our dining, the background music was quite loud, I have little difficulty to focus and listen what my friend is talking.
Decorating is fantastic and comfortable, a bunch of green hooked up from ceiling.
So far I like this place and willing to have my pancake journey.
