Went there to catch up with old friends over breakfast. Even though the place was full, for good reason of course, they did not hurry us along. Food was excellent and the service worth returning.

The server was very friendly and I had the peameal with cheese on a bun with fries. The sandwich was good, but it could have been put under the broiler a bit longer to melt the cheese. The fries also could have been cooked a bit more, but the best part of the meal was the butter tart. It was... More

They only offer 1 version, egg on peameal on a toasted muffin, smothered in sauce. Add in a Farmers Sausage, 2 cooked butterfly style that are soooooo tasty. All this for $13 and change. Great breakfast fries also

The best kept secret of good eats in Stratford. The Hearty Delight #1 or #2 are like two breakfasts for one person. Featuring eggs, bacon/sausage/peameal bacon, home fries, etc. from local farmers and producers. Don't forget to pick up some of Madelyn's home baking, especially the bacon butter tarts.

We headed here after reading the reviews and the good reviews were so right. We had lunch which was very well priced and so tasty. I had the hot hamburger for only $7.95 was a steal. It came with real mashed potatoes, I could have had fries, that were fluffy and so good. The hamburger and gravy were also excellent.... More

Great atmosphere, very family-oriented. Superb fish and chips with very reasonable rates. Very friendly and a bit crowded, but that's because it's very popular.

And after you enjoy your eggs, fried potatoes, toast, sausage, coffee, juice, etc. take home a couple of Madelyn's butter tarts. We loved the bacon butter tarts and the pumpkin ones are tasty too!

Based upon other reviews, we decided to go to Madelyn's for a good old-fashioned breakfast. The staff was great - friendly and very efficient but the food was terrible. My scrambled eggs were tough and flat and the sausage had been deep-fried within an inch of its life. My husband's eggs benedict had sauce from a mix and the home... More
