As an international traveler with a passion for discovering the best local food in every city, Hot Pork was an absolute delight to find. Recommended by friends, it was easy to reach from downtown Toronto.

The place is small and cozy — perfect for a quick chat and, of course, an unforgettable brisket sandwich. As a meat lover, it was everything I hoped for: crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, bursting with flavor.

Whenever I return to Toronto, Hot Pork will definitely be a mandatory stop.

This place is fabulous. They smoke their own brisket and make the best smoked brisket sandwich, loaded with perfect, tender meat and crunchy slaw, that is to be found anywhere. It's the only thing I've tried but the friend who introduced me to the place has tried almost everything else on the select menu and says it is all perfect. And this friend has very exacting tastes. I will be going back to try the other menu items.
Lambo's sandwiches is right across the street. It's not bad but nowhere near as special or delicious.

Wonderful deli, superb delicious brisket sandwich! The chefs are very nice and great at what they do. Treat yourself #bbq

Delicious hot sandwiches.
Tried the combo and the brisket and jerk pork belly. All incredibly delicious but would day the combo may be the best breakfast sandwich I've had

This is the sandwich shop the city has been thirsting for!! I've had the jerk pork belly sandwich, and the beef brisket breakfast sandwich, both were exceptional. Very friendly service, and I can't wait to go back. I want to try everything on the menu this summer.

Saw this spot included in lists for top breakfast sandwiches in the city, and it did not disappoint!

Ordered the BBQ combo sandwich - brisket, pork belly, egg, and cheese in an English muffin, which also came with a surprise side of home fries. If you're after a light breakfast, this isn’t it. It’s hefty, messy, and absolutely delicious. The meat was juicy, tender, and perfectly seasoned (not overly salty).

Will definitely be back to try their other sandos!

These sandwiches are just downright delicious. The team is friendly and fun, if you'd like to chat about the product they are very happy too share. My personal favourite is the beef brisket breakfast** sandwhich - the english muffin, the slightly jammy egg. Sometimes I ask to throw a slide of cheddar cheese on (sorry if that's blasphemy). It's amazing either way. Just had another one today and that last, juicy, fatty, saucy bite lives in my brain rent free.

Great place. Best breakfast sandwich I’ve had in a while, we immediately bought a pack of the sausage patties to go. Brisket was to die for. Guy behind the counter was so friendly. Atmosphere is bare-bones but you don’t need anything else!

Best breakfast sandwich in the city; dare say best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. Amazing portions, incredible flavour, extremely fair prices. Killer pate, frozen sausage patties, and smoked meat to go. The owner is a total sweetheart. This spot is well worth checking out.

This place is freaking LEGIT 🔥! I was just walking and stepped in randomly, and it was genuinely one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had in my life 😂!!

I had the “BBQ COMBO” with egg, smoked beef brisket, and pork belly, and let me just say, it was cooked to perfection! The meat just melts on your tongue, while the egg provides that perfect hardy breakfast taste as well! Plus the home style fries/wedges on the side are perfectly seasoned.

Please, please, please check out this place - they really deserve it!

Pork sausage breakfast sandwich hit the spot....with a big side of breakfast potatoes...highly seasoned and delicious. Very friendly staff, so many things to try next time.

I came here on a recommendation from a friend who had hyped it up and was fully intent on scrutinizing his review….
The pork belly sandwich is among the best sandwiches I have ever tried. Period. And many a sandwich I have tried. I had no idea such tenderness could be achieved in pork belly. It was so exceptional I could not leave without telling the owner, who is a great guy and whose passion you can immediately tell. The store also functions with butcher shop capabilities as there’s a wide selection of butchered meats, smoked salmon and other goodies that can be purchased over the counter. I’ve tried all the big staples in the west end and this is on a whole different level. You owe it to yourself to try it.

The owner is so nice! The brisket is so tender. Definitely one of my new go to morning spots when I'm craving a good breakfast sandwich.

The brisket is absolutely fantastic! I got the 4oz sandwich which left me wanting but not really needing more. I came back the next morning for the brisket breakfast sandwich. Also great but I prefer the non-breakfast sandwich because it has coleslaw on it. I got it without cheese because it just doesn’t seem necessary. I love cheese but I don’t want it masking that delicious brisket!

Absolutely killer breakfast sandwiches. The house made meats are top tier. Very friendly owner and staff. Was so good had to come back the next morning before headed back home to Buffalo. Wish I lived closer. Cheap beer for takeout too.

Visited the Junction Farmers Market and was curious to try this place. There were always long line ups, which is a good sign, but i never had the time. This time, I got to market early and no wait. Of course, I ordered the pork belly breakfast sandwich, as I never had that combo before. It was divine and sublime. Perfectly made, fresh to order. Fried egg with pork belly, BBQ sauce, mayo on toasted English muffin. Delicious. Loved every element of this sando. Will go back for the brisket sandwich next time. Thanks Hot Pork!

One of my favourite places to have a casual lunch in Toronto right now. Incredible quality and cook on their meats. I have had both the pork belly and brisket sandwiches. Couldn’t say which one I liked more. Also has deli butcher favourites to make at home such as burgers and sausage, as well as local favourite Blood Brother beers. The inside could use a little more character but you can also take your sammies and beer to go and head up the street to Trinity Bellwoods. Highly recommended!

This place is 100% legit.
Friendly service from the start.
Ordered the Smoke Beef Brisket. $13
Egg BBQ sauce mayo on a fresh English muffin toasted.
All fresh ingredients.
Most tasty sandwich I've ever had.
Hidden gem. Worth the drive.
Diffentanly will be back.
Last word "Unbelievable"

Chicken sausage breakfast sandwich was incredible. I had no idea a chicken patty could taste that delicious. Very friendly staff and delicious freshly squeezed orange juice. Definitely will return!

Lucky to find this on a walk today. Pretty sure the owner/chef served me himself and was extremely passionate about his food. Asked for best seller and told the brisket breakfast Sammy. Perfect sandwich that was great for a walk in the park. Lots of great grocery options and noticed they have my fav beer, BloodLight. Didn't feel like carrying a jar of pickled eggs so will likely be back next week to try another sandwich and stock up. Sausage rolls available on the weekends!!!

Great new neighbourhood find. Tried their smoked brisket breakfast sandwich, it was an uncomplicated, quality sandwich with an excellent brisket. Priced pretty well for the quality of food you're getting.

Went here for the first time on a weekend after hearing rave reviews from friends and it did not disappoint. We got the brisket sandwich, pork belly breakfast sandwich, and poutine. Loved the fresh cut fries and smokey gravy. Everything had a really good flavor and was not overly salty, unlike other bbq or smoked meat places in the city. Highly recommend!

New place opened up. They make everything in-house. You can buy ready made stuff to take home and they have sandwiches etc. Good variety. I tried the brisket sandwich and man it was great.

The bun was soft with plenty of meat to satisfy every bite with coleslaw and sauce. The balance was fantastic and you don’t get that from many places. Outstanding!!!

Breakfast sandwich are just awesome!!
