Our first experience at the Bauer Kitchen was outstanding. They present an excellent selection of options on the menu and a wine list with reasonably priced options. Service was prompt and friendly. The noise level was a bit higher than we would typically like, but it didn’t prevent conversation. We were also informed that the other side of the restaurant (northwest) was a bit quieter if we found the noise level too much. Also a good beer selection on tap. My new favourite place in Waterloo.

We have been to Bauer multiple times over the years and this is one of the most disappointing brunches we've experienced. My spouse ordered the chicken and gouda omelets an what she got looked more like a puny crepe with barely any chicken nor gouda. She was so hungry she made herself an egg and mushrooms mash when we got home. My eggs Benedict were very runny even after ordering "medium". Olivia's service was good. Overall a disappointing experience

We arrived early, only waited a short time for our table to be ready. Coffee is fantastic! Food was pretty tasty too :)
