Miss Molly's Diner
Inside Miss Molly's Diner
Miss Molly's Diner blends the welcoming vibe of a classic family diner with a surprising Lebanese flair nestled in Ottawa’s west end. Located on Laperriere Avenue, it draws a steady crowd, especially during breakfast and brunch hours, from locals craving hearty, honest plates and some Middle Eastern-inspired dishes that stand out amid traditional diner fare.
The atmosphere feels comfortably no-frills but warm—think standard 50s diner booths, a well-worn counter, and a steady hum of chatter on weekend mornings. It’s the sort of place where the staff quickly get your order right, even when the room is buzzing, and where accommodating dietary needs doesn’t slow down the friendly service.
What really anchors Miss Molly’s is the menu’s blend of familiar and distinctive. You can start your day with generous portions of classics like eggs, bacon, home fries, or a croissant breakfast sandwich, but you’ll also find bold Lebanese-inspired options like Shish Taouk sandwiches and Beef Shawarma wraps. The Fatoush salad and Lebanese Markouk sandwiches bring refreshing, tangy flavors, balancing the richer diner staples. For those who want something heartier in the evening, the Turkey Dinner offers a homestyle touch away from the breakfast-centric expectations.
The breakfast potatoes consistently earn a nod for their crispness and comforting familiarity. For those with a sweet tooth or looking to round out their meal, the chocolate pudding and some of the more unique menu items like the bulgogi breakfast platter offer an unexpected twist.
Miss Molly’s is great for anyone seeking a casual, sizable meal without fuss—whether you’re after a leisurely weekend brunch, a quick breakfast stop on a weekday, or a low-key dinner featuring Lebanese flavors. It’s a spot where you’ll often encounter repeat customers comfortable with the no-pressure seating and steady, reliable service.
If you’re visiting, mornings to early afternoons seem best as the diner fills up quickly, especially on weekends. Its blend of diner nostalgia and Lebanese warmth creates a familiar yet pleasantly distinct neighborhood experience.
