Early Breakfast at Coast & Country Diner

A Cloverdale farm-road diner that opens at 6am, takes its hollandaise seriously and charges diner money for it.

The date

Coast & Country has been catering Fraser Valley weddings since 1997, and the diner bolted onto it is where that kitchen cooks for the people who work the fields around it. Doors at 6am, a room with an unrepentant eighties feel, cowboy breakfasts, farmer sausage, hash browns done properly and a hollandaise people drive out for. It is not trying to be pretty and the bill lands somewhere around fifteen dollars a head. What it is very good at is the early start: eat properly at seven and Campbell Valley, Redwood Park and the Cloverdale antique strip are all still empty.

How to do it

No reservations and none needed; it is a booths-and-counter room with a table almost always going. Doors at 6am, so this is the anchor when you want a genuine head start on the day. Order a cowboy breakfast or a benny, because the hollandaise is what people come back for, and the farmer sausage is worth the upgrade. Budget an hour and fifteen to twenty dollars a head. There is a big free lot at the door, and from here you are ten minutes from Campbell Valley Regional Park and about the same from the Cloverdale antique shops.
