Cafe Nicole – Novotel Toronto Centre - Toronto, Ontario

Happy Hour on the Patio was amazing! The patio is intimate. Each table and umbrella are placed between the imposing pillars offering privacy from the other guests. It was perfect. The pricing was outstanding, and the kitchen surprised us. We had such a great lunch and meeting that ... we forgot to take pictures. I'm looking forward to my next glass of wine on your patio!

I had some time to kill at Union Station and it was brunch time so I headed to Nicole’s. Salmon Benny was very tasty and the hash browns were a brilliant mix of regular and sweet potatoes. I asked for tea and got a thermos, which was much appreciated. Service ... was good, not amazing, but not bad either. Read more

We spent the night at the Novatel so visited this restaurant for early evening drinks as well as their buffet breakfast on Sunday morning. The evening visit was excellent as I would venture to say they may have been 30% capacity but I will add when we left it was ... becoming busier. Our waiter who doubled as the bartender was excellent. He spent a bit of time talking with us and was very engaging and friendly as well as checked on us regularly. The morning buffet breakfast was above average as breakfast buffets go. The food was of great quality with such a wide range of choices. It was not overly busy so no wait times for anything. The man and woman running it were quick with coffee and clearing your place when you were going for more. I have to say from a personal standpoint in the hundred odd hotel breakfast spots we have been blessed to have had the opportunity to visit this one was at the top for quality freshness and pleasant staff. Regardless of where I may stay in the area in the future I will gravitate back to here for the reasons listed. Read more

Poured my wife coffee even though she did not ask for any, she also received the wrong drink order. The eggs were overcooked as you can see clearly in the picture, and the potatoes were undercooked and very tough.

This is about breakfast only, and that deserved 5 stars. The food was good, generous portion, and great value for the money. The servers, both the man and the lady, were attentive and friendly. The only blemish on the food was the coffee, too weak for our taste. If I ... were to suggest one thing to the management it would be to look into the seating comfort. The benches are very nice but low and sink quiet a bit when an average person like me, 180 lb, sits on. This makes the table too high for comfortable eating. I switched to the chair. The chairs (the grey chairs with black legs) are very nice but tilt backward easily. Both I and another patron fell back on the floor when we simply leaned back to look around the restaurant! That is a serious accident waiting to happen. The brown chairs I switched to were very comfortable and sturdy. Read more
