Oh my gosh, I'm so glad I got to have breakfast at Shades! The coffee was exactly what you'd expect from a well known diner. It was perfect. I had the huevos rancheros and they were excellent. The refried beans were so tasty! My partner had the French toast and the slices were almost 2 inches thick! He said they were so good, but could have used more syrup. The server was really busy, and wasn't able to get him more syrup (or refill my coffee). That was the only downside, but like many other places, being short-staffed and super busy certainly wasn't her fault. I will definitely make a stop in again if I travel through Penticton!
The environment has a cozy diner feel to it. Service is genuinely friendly and attentive. The food very high quality. Don't even worry about prices. The first time you dine, you'll see what I mean. The level of star rating is due to a couple of minor details. The tables and seating is kept fairly clean. Common items such as salt & pepper shakers should be sanitized regularly. The communication overall needs a little attention. On two separate occasions, food was missing or cooked differently than requested. ie: order basted egg and over hard is delivered. This isn't the norm. Merely time to time, don't be surprised or disappointed. Great food and place to dine overall
Great breakfast food, milkshakes, and friendly service.
I would rate no stars if I could. Never git to try shades. So today was out woth my mother and thought to take her to breakfast and try shades. We waited and got seated waitress. Brought coffee. Nobody was in the restaurant. As we sat and waited for our order to be taken three other tables had walked in. They all got served and orders taken. Another table walked in same thing. I tried to flag the waitress but to no prevail. There was a shorter older woman running around I said can we get our order taken and she said you wait okay busy. WHEN WE ARRIVED NO ONE WAS IN THERE! so we got up went to the till said to the older lady at the till we couldn't get our order taken so we are leaving and she rudely slammed a bill on the counter down. Said 7.35! Loud. I don't understand why we were treated this way. 😕 so we paid the bill and left. Wow.
By far one of the worst Monte Cristo sandwiches I've ever eaten. Had ppl rave about the Monte Cristo sandwich at this place , do we decided to give it a try. Well the bread was plain, thin and sandwich lacked flavor and was cold. Won't be going back.
