Sunset Grill - Collingwood

If you're reading this you're likely no stranger to Sunset Grill.

Gord and I had breakfast this morning at the Sunset Grill. It's the only breakfast spot in Blue Mountain Village so it was a popular and busy spot. I

Classic breakfast spot. FoodI got an eggs benedict, my go-to breakfast dishIt was good but nothing out of the ordinary.

My association with and love of the Blue Mountains/Niagara Escarpment goes back decades, long before the condominium and resort development boom hit Blue Mountain Resorts where one finds the Sunset Grill. I can find beauty in wonderful crimson sunsets over Georgian Bay as well as...beauty in well-presented and plentiful breakfast plates. The latter, I was served at the Sunset Grill yesterday after a friend invited me to breakfast. I mention my historical attachment to the area because I can remember when the Village at Blue, which is now the people-pulsing heart of Blue Mountain Resort, was just an open field adjacent to an ever-growing ski hills. Now, the Sunset Grill is as much an asset to this resort as are the many things that beckon to out-of-towners and visitors alike. Arriving at the front door to the Sunset Grill we were checked for vaccination proof. I totally agree with this and it was the first time my plasticized vaccination card was used. It worked! Additionally, my identification was reviewed and accepted. We were shown to a table in a restaurant that was about one-quarter full at a.m., on a weekday. I am certain that things would be busier on a weekend because that's when the resort gets busier overall; especially as covid restrictions lift. A friendly server asked about drinks and we received our coffees within minutes. As we reviewed our menus, I saw that one staff member was constantly walking throughout the restaurant picking up and taking away used dishes and cutlery as soon as customers left their tables. Another staff member was busy cleanng. Good to see! We ordered our breakfasts, focusing on items from Sunset Grill's favourites. It seems that the norm is that almost everything comes with three eggs. Just let them know how you want the eggs done. Also, you can order a split to go with your eggs. A split means not just bacon and not just sausage. You can have some of each, so I did. Breakfast was served hot and not long after we ordered it. I have visited the Sunset Grill before and the service was just as excellent then as it was now. My friend and I sat and chatted for quite a while, as coffee was refilled. No pressure to leave as the restaurant was filling up. People were waiting to come in, as we were leaving. It's a fact, we shall return.

Went to Sunset Grill for breakfast on our last day.. The service and servers were excellent and food plentiful, hot and good. Prices were reasonable.
