About This Spot

Michael's Eatery sits quietly on Commercial Avenue, inviting those passing by to step into a space that feels like a well-worn local secret. The moment you walk in, there's a comforting rhythm to the place—a gentle buzz of conversation, the clink of cutlery against plates, and the soft hum of early morning chatter mingled with the scent of fresh coffee. It moves at a pace that matches the steady comfort of a neighborhood diner, where familiar faces nod hello and moments stretch unhurriedly into one another.

The atmosphere here is warmly casual, offering a refuge for both early risers and midday visitors from the surrounding community. It carries the kind of quiet pride that comes with decades of serving up reliably good meals rather than flashy trends. It's easy to settle into one of the booths or perch at the counter, soaking in the light spilling through the windows alongside the low murmur of friendly staff who know many of their guests by name.

Food at Michael's is an unpretentious celebration of classic Canadian breakfast and comfort fare. Imagine coffee poured just right, plates arriving with crispy bacon beside perfectly cooked eggs, or stacks of golden pancakes with melted butter gently pooling on top. Lunch offerings feel like familiar friends—hearty sandwiches, fresh salads, and generous portions that invite you to linger a little longer over shared stories or a moment of quiet.

Underlying it all is a genuine sense of care. The kitchen’s steady pace and thoughtful preparations create an inviting simplicity, where each meal is grounded in skill and sincerity rather than rush or pretense. It’s the kind of place where the everyday act of eating becomes quietly cherished, a small but meaningful connection woven into the larger fabric of the community.

Kind of a hidden gem… in the what felt like middle of nowhere. My chicken greek wrap was excellent. My partner got a club. It was huge! The chefs are really good… our server was not the best** listener… never came back to offer us water or anything …she forgot to add French fries to our order… so she brought them once we had started eating… then she messed up at the end again… split the bill when she asked and we said together. Maybe she’s new? Anyway, they have lots of options.

Fantastic cozy diner with amazing service. The staff was always there to ask if we needed more coffee and made sure our experience was as amazing as possible. The food was amazing, eggs were perfectly cooked, bacon and home fries were nice and crispy, and an abundance of condiments at the table.

It's a favorite, been here a few times. The staff is lovely, the food is good and the prices are way more reasonable than alot of breakfast spots. I got the breakfast special which is two eggs, potatoes, 4 pieces of bacon and toast for 9.99

We were there for lunch and the atmosphere was wonderful. There is nothing like the feel of a diner. Our server was great, however I found the omlete a little dry and bland. Nonetheless, it was a great place and I would recommend it.

Located southwest corner of Harwood and Station Street, local diner operates between 7 am and 3 pm servicing the local industrial area. Great value for your money. Regular daily specials. I like coming hear for their western sandwich and soup, made to my liking. Need to get here before the lunch rush or parking will be difficult.

Nothing says Canadian to me like a friendly, well run family diner. Michael's Eatery fits the bill perfectly. You feel like a member of the family from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave the restaurant. Aside from the service, the food and prices shine on their own. This is around the corner from Ajax Community centre and we'll be stopping by here often after my son's skating lessons.

Very very solid place to come to eat. We usually come here on our lunch and the food arrives to our table pretty quickly. Very friendly staff, food and menu are great as well. Ordered breakfast the last couple times and co-workers have ordered the Caesar salad, Greek salad, fries, gravy etc. Would definitely return again and recommend!
