The Egg & I Menu Prices Canada 2026
Wondering about The Egg & I menu and what breakfast costs in Hamilton? This the egg and i menu prices Canada 2026 guide has the full menu in CAD: breakfast platters from $10.99 to $30.35, omelettes at $17.37-$17.59, benedicts at $19.99-$20.89, and pancakes from $11.54. The Egg & I is a Hamilton-area breakfast diner chain, a local mainstay serving the city for decades, known for its eggs benedict and all-day breakfast. It has no brand website with an item-level menu, so I pulled these numbers from the brand-managed delivery-app listing where the prices are set by the diner itself. And if you are comparing breakfast chains across Ontario, the Eggsmart menu prices in Canada guide covers a much bigger provincial chain.
🍳 The Egg & I Menu Prices Canada: Breakfast Platters
This is the heart of the menu. Every platter comes with the diner’s hand-cut grilled home fries and Texas toast, which is honestly half the reason to go. The Egg & I Big Breakfast at $24.19 is the headline act: 3 eggs, 2 bacon, 2 sausage links, 2 back bacon and 2 silver dollar pancakes. That is a lot of food. On the value end, the Egg & I Classic at $15.94 (bacon, ham or sausage with 2 eggs) and the Egg & I Sunrise at $10.99 (2 eggs any style) are the smart picks if you just want a proper breakfast without the big-ticket price. The top end is the Steak (8 oz) and Eggs at $30.35, which is steep, but an 8-ounce steak for breakfast is a commitment anyway. My take? The Terry’s Breakfast at $20.12 (2 eggs, ham, bacon, 2 sausages) hits the sweet spot of variety and price.

The Egg & I Menu Card Canada 2026
The Egg & I menu card with current 2026 prices in CAD.
One note on the source before we go further. The Egg & I has no official brand website and no findable in-store menu-board photo, so the prices here come from the brand-managed delivery-app menu (the 1760 Upper James St listing, checked October 21, 2026), where the prices are set by the diner itself. Delivery-app prices can include a small markup versus the counter, so in-store takeout may be a touch lower. Still, for a small Hamilton chain, this is the most current price list you will find anywhere online. Just do not confuse it with the US chain of the similar name. Any USD menu you find online is not this place.
🧀 The Egg & I Omelette Menu Prices
Short and sweet, this section. The omelettes are all made with 3 grade-A eggs and come with the same home fries and Texas toast. The Farmer’s Omelette at $17.59 is loaded, ham, bacon, back bacon, pork sausages, peppers and onions. The Greek at $17.37 (tomatoes, onions, peppers, feta) and the Western at $17.37 (peppers, onions, Black Forest ham) are the lighter options. Not a huge selection, honestly, but the ones here are done right. The Farmer’s is the one I would order. Three meats plus vegetables in one omelette is not messing around.
| Item | Details | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Farmer’s Omelette | Ham, bacon, back bacon, pork sausages, peppers, onions | $17.59 |
| Greek Omelette | Tomatoes, onions, peppers, feta | $17.37 |
| Western Omelette | Peppers, onions, Black Forest ham | $17.37 |

🥞 The Egg & I Pancake, Waffle & French Toast Prices
The in-house buttermilk pancakes are a signature here, made from scratch and served with whipped butter and syrup. Plain buttermilk pancakes start at $11.54, which is very fair. Add fruit topping (strawberry, wild blueberry, red raspberry or apple-cinnamon) for $15.83, or go Banana Lovers at $15.83. The premium end is the Peaches and Cream Buttermilk Pancake at $18.47 and the Crunchy Pecan at $17.04. The French toast (thick rye, cinnamon egg mixture) lands at $12.64. Is $18.47 a lot for a pancake? A little, sure. But peaches and cream on a tall stack of buttermilk pancakes is the kind of weekend treat that justifies itself. For a pancake-focused morning across the province, the Stacked Pancake & Breakfast House menu prices guide covers Ontario’s pancake specialist.
| Item | Details | Price |

🥚 The Egg & I Eggs Benedict Prices
This is the section the Egg & I is famous for. The house calls its eggs benedict the best around, and at $19.99-$20.89 it had better be good. The Grilled Cheese and Bacon Benny at $20.89 is the wild card, a grilled cheese on french bread with bacon, 2 poached eggs and hollandaise. The Spinach and Mushroom Benny and the Spinach and Tomato Benny are both $19.99. Then there are the poutines: the Breakfast Poutine at $15.83 (home fries, cheese, onions, peppers, gravy and hollandaise) and the Greek Poutine at $17.15 (home fries, feta, onions, tomatoes, peppers, gravy or Greek dressing). A breakfast poutine for under $16 is one of the better values on the whole menu, in my opinion.
| Item | Details | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Grilled Cheese and Bacon Benny | French bread grilled cheese with bacon, 2 poached eggs, hollandaise | $20.89 |
| Spinach and Mushroom Benny | Spinach and mushroom eggs benedict | $19.99 |

🥗 The Egg & I Lunch Menu Prices: Salads & Sandwiches
Breakfast is the star, but the lunch side is solid. The Cobb Salad at $23.75 (turkey, guacamole, bacon, blue cheese, eggs, olives) is the priciest thing on the lunch menu, and it is a big bowl. The Greek Salad at $18.69 is more reasonable. Sandwich-wise, the Clubhouse at $21.44 is the classic triple-decker, the Ham and Egg Quesadilla at $19.02 is a fun one, and the Fried Egg, Peameal & Cheese Sandwich at $22.00 is very Canadian. There is also a Farmers Eggs Wrap at $24.00. Honestly, if you are already here, breakfast all day is the move. But the lunch options mean the non-breakfast person in your group will not be stuck.
