  I definitely prefer the Mary’s Place on Robie St – much smaller, the regulars are friendly, and it’s a nice place to relax. On Spring Garden it was packed and loud (not an unpleasant loud but loud enough to want to just eat and get out). The staff were definitely working hard and well, everyone was super friendly. Great place, maybe I just came at a random rush, as I overheard another girl say she had never seen it so crowded. Oh, and amazing food, too. 🙂

  Not the value it once was. Now that they’ve jacked up their breakfast prices (by charging $1.75 for the bad diner coffee that used to be included) the value isn’t what it once was. Breakfast for two is now around $30. I think we’ll be exploring other options in the area.

  Great Diner. My first impressions when walking into Mary’s Place was how homey and warm the diner felt. It fells like you are walking into your grandmother’s kitchen. We were greeted immediately by a really friendly lady who also noticed our posters we were carrying from a protest we just attended. She gave words of support and proceeded to answer my questions regarding a vegan menu. She said that they will take care of us and answer any questions. Basically anything they have they can accomodate us and also mentioned they do lots of gluten-free options as well. When browsing the menu, I noticed many options and one really cool feature was their vegan combo menu listed on the bottom. Three items for 10 dollars and any additions are only 2 dollars extra. For Halifax, that is truly a fantastic deal. Hubby and I both went for combos. Many of the dishes are Indian in orietation. I ordered the garlic potatoes, basmati rice and veggie patty. It arrived promptly and was a good size portion. The garlic dip was a bit discerning when looking at it but we called over the waitress and she assured us that it was vegan, with no animal ingredients. The food was tasty, filling and satisfying. I loved the potatoes! We both enjoyed our meal and the pleasant service we received, as well as it being extremely affordable. Next time I hope they have vegan ice cream in so I can get myself a vegan milkshake. 🙂

  Great Breakfast!. I have been to this gratifying greasy spoon numerous times for breakfast and left stuffed and happy! They have a great menu at great prices, perfect for the many students that frequent this place, or anyone who appreciates good service and great food. The service is friendly and the atmosphere of the always crowded restaurant is convivial and electric! A perfect place for an early morning breakfast or a late afternoon hangover cure. Awesome! thefoodgirlintown.com

  This is my new favorite spot! It’s perfect if you go to Dal, and don’t want to eat the same old stuff. The food was delicious and the price was unbeatable! The service was amazing, too. Our server was extremely nice and knew what she was doing, even brought us some water right off the bat. I was very impressed with everything. I would definitely reccommend this place!

  GREASY! And I usually like greasy spoon breakfasts. At Mary’s everything tastes the same (eggs, bacon, hash browns…) like whatever oil they cook with. I’ve been a few times and it’s never good
