DEFINITELY the best in Hawkesbury. Today, my family and I tried B&F. Service was perfect from Sacha,food was amazing, especially the dragon fruit smoothie. We dont eat beef or pork, so we had the crispy chicken sandwich and the chicken sausage meal and a crepe meal. Price was worth it overall! Decor is clean and modern. I have one piece of advice to this place...Keep the standard and keep the customers! For atmosphere 4/5 stars, we were sitting by the kitchen entrance, and there was some food on the ground inside the kitchen where the dishes were being washed. Otherwise it would have been 100% perfect.

Huge menu offering at reasonable prices. I had the "authentic" breakfast which included 2 eggs, bacon, tomatoes, cheddar, apple sauce, coffee and bread. I had easy-over eggs and they were cooked perfectly. The bacon was crisp and well done. Potatoes were seasoned. The cheddar and tomato slices were of reasonable thickness. The coffee was weak to my taste and I was disappointed they served "Heinz" ketchup given their history with Canadian workers and the current political situation. Most restaurants will serve Canadian-produced condiments like "French" or other. This might be a show stopper for some given the ongoing boycotts and tariffs of American products. The dining area is clean and very large and it looks like they will have an outdoor area later in the season (they have the deck and fencing already in place). The price for my meal with taxes came to $19. You can have a traditional breakfast (eggs, meat, potatoes and toast) for about $12. Their mixed, combo platters which are quite generous will run you about $20 per person. Plenty of parking given its location. I believe you get good value for what you pay.

Lovely little place bravely nestled behind Tim Horton's. Excellent variety on the menu and tasted amazing! Good coffee and nice service, will have to go back for seconds.

Ben & Florentine in Hawkesbury truly exceeded my expectations! I indulged in the Gourmandise Breakfast, and it was absolutely delightful! The spread included a perfect balance of eggs, meats, cheeses, and pastries - everything was fresh and flavorful. The service was warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere was cozy and intimate. Highly recommend this spot for a weekend brunch with family and friends. We'll definitely be back for more of that delicious food and excellent service!

The waitresses are both pretty and cute, serving sweet smiles and food. The waitress told us that the avocados here are all the best. Love this place!

Wow, what a gem! I came here for brunch and honestly, I was blown away. First off, the prices are super reasonable — you get great quality food without breaking the bank, which is always a win. The atmosphere is just lovely — warm, cozy, and beautifully decorated. It’s the kind of place where you instantly feel relaxed and welcome. The service was amazing too. The staff were so friendly, patient, and attentive without being pushy. You can tell they genuinely care about making sure you have a good experience, and that really makes a difference. Now let’s talk about the food — absolutely delicious! Every dish we ordered was full of flavor, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. You can really taste the freshness and quality of the ingredients. It’s no wonder the place was packed — so many happy customers, and now I’m one of them too! This is definitely going on my list of favorite brunch spots in town. I’m already planning to come back with my family because I know they’ll love it just as much as I did. Highly, highly recommend
