Breakfast & brunch · Hamilton, Ontario

The waffle is
the plate.

Breakfast, brunch, or whatever you call it at 7 AM — every plate at The Cannon is built on a fluffy round waffle: sweet, savoury, or dredged-in-batter bacon. Served daily from open on the corner of Cannon & Ottawa St. N.

Sweet or savoury

Brunch,
waffled.

The harvest brunch piles roasted sweet potato, pesto aioli, goat cheese and poached eggs onto an open-face waffle. The canadian goes bacon, cheddar and maple. The classic keeps it pure — berries, house chocolate sauce, fresh whip. And the waffle bacon is exactly what it sounds like: bacon, waffled.

Brunch questions.

Do you have gluten-friendly or vegan waffles?
Yes — gluten-friendly waffles and vegan waffles are available on request for any waffle dish, and our house chocolate sauce is vegan-friendly. A heads-up for celiac guests: gluten-friendly means made without gluten ingredients, but everything is prepared in a kitchen that handles regular flour, so we can't guarantee zero cross-contact.
Do you take reservations for brunch?
We don't take reservations — it's first come, cozy seated. Weekend mornings are busiest; weekdays are your friend.
Do you serve breakfast?
Every day — the kitchen runs the full menu from 7 AM to 2 PM, so it's breakfast, brunch, or lunch depending on when you show up. Weekday mornings until 10 AM there's also the early bird: any drip coffee and any pastry for $6.
When is brunch served?
All day, every day — the full brunch menu runs from 7 AM to 2 PM. Waffles at 7 AM on a Tuesday are encouraged.
