  This review is for the coffee/cappuccino at detour cafe. Went there to meet a friend in the afternoon, had a cappuccino and it was delicious- smooth and rich! Its a cozy with enough plugs around if you want to work on your laptop. Great atmosphere as well. Definitely would stop by again when I'm in the area.

  No more then 2 months go, this was what I would have described as the BEST place for breakfast in all of Hamilton and surrounding areas....NOT anymore!! I don't know if they have come under new ownership, but my last three visits have been nothing short of terrible. First, my wife ordered their avocado toast which she has ordered hundreds of times in the past, and never been disappointed. When they brought it out it had maybe one spoonful of avocado on it and little to no garnish. When I brought this to the waitresses attention, and mentioned that it always comes with nearly triple the amount that was served to us this time, she simply replied with "sorry, but maybe you just got a small avocado"....seriously? When I asked to speak with the manager, she reluctantly said she would bring over extra avocado...which they proceeded to bill us for anyways. The manager never once came over to offer an explanation or apology. Secondly, their Detour breakfast WAS (past tense) the best! It has always been expensive, but they would make up for that with HUGE portions and awesome extras (butter, jam , and of course the tomato jam)..But not anymore. The portions are smaller, the tomato jam is no longer included and the price of course went up. Oh and if you want the tomato jam, that will now cost you an extra $1.00. The last two times I ordered this breakfast, I had to send it back because the bacon was so over cooked that when I picked it up, it disintegrated. How does it even leave the kitchen like that?!? I'm not sure who owns and operates this place now...but damn...you guys messed up a good thing. I will never visit or recommend this place to anyone EVER again. There are plenty better options in Hamilton and surrounding areas.

  Food is always reliably delicious . Teas and coffees are well prepared and tasty. It's a busy place-very popular so you often have to wait for a table. DETOUR is my 'Go to' eatery in Dundas for very casual eating.
