Bodega Henriette

The best breakfast place in the East end. Amazing for kids. Long list of gluten free options.

Came here with friends for a weekend get together. Cute place in the middle of east side of Toronto, on a main street that is on a TTC streetcar route. Atmosphere: cozy cafe eitt open patio that looks out onto a busy street. Perfect for people watching. Hard to get seats for more than four. Will require reservations on a weekend. Food served on cute old porcelain plates similar to ones your grandma used to serve you with. Service: Good, server was prompt, informed, came when needed. Had the iced tea: not sweetened, black tea, nice for a hot day. Had the tofu scramble on a curry chickpea waffle with a creamy drizzle? that was gluten free. Was not a fan of the creamy drizzle, it had little flavour and reminded me of mayo. Tofu was placed on the waffle which made the waffle a little soggy. Waffle was savoury and may need a little more flavour. Would have appreciated separating the scramble from the waffle since there were different tastes and textures. Went home with a stuffed cookie, which was heavy but tasty and not too sweet, best part of brunch. Food mate had the smoked salmon scramble, fingerling potatoes looked well cooked. Cost: $19-$20. Overall: nice ambiance, cozy feel, will try the other options next time.
