Service was good. Restaurant was very clean, nice, and quite busy. Maybe I just got the wrong thing because the food is mediocre.

A little hidden breakfast gem. We got eggs benedict, egg white omelet, kids Oreo pancakes, oatmeal, and kids combo = $ 55 with tip included. The sizes are plenty big for take-home portions, so feel free to split the plate and make 2 meals of it. There was a constant line of people, but they kept it moving fast so waiting was only 10 minutes… on a busy Sunday morning. And of course, they’re known for their jelly so ask for a serving of toast and jelly to give it a try. It’s supposed to be made in-house fresh, so worth a taste. Really enjoyable breakfast…

Had a good experience here. Was seated promptly, food was solid, service was adequate and coffee cup was continually refilled. Omelette was just right and enjoyed the crisp bacon and ham. A solid choice for breakfast.

I had the Jelly French toast and it was delish! It was a pretty large serving, but would have preferred a smaller portion if it came with sides instead, like eggs and bacon. We had a group of 10 and the service was great!

Great place. Had a great stack of pancakes with fresh strawberries. Its smaller but not loud at all. Coffee was very tasty. My coworkers give it a thumbs up too.

Breakfast was good nice little outdoor seating on a beautiful Sunday morning. We got there just in the nick of time around 11 a.m. for they got too busy. Food was great. Service was a little bit spotty but it looks like she was stretched pretty thin. Definitely a place to try.

Passed by several times with the fiancé’ and kept saying we are going to try it. I was very surprised at the level of service combined with the upscale food. Had the corned beef hash, which is not something I usually order anywhere, since it tends to be on the salty side. Great choice. This beef was tender and delicious and far from salty. The bread, marble rye, was fresh and delicious — red potatoes, very nice. Haven’t had the chance to make it back yet, but it is highly recommended. The big kicker was our server, she was very cool and laid back with a bit of humor mixed in. I realize being a server is hard work and I respect when people are able to work hard but still have a smile for their customer. 4 stars for the first time… hoping to go up from here…

Went for breakfast today. Told us 30 minute wait no problem. Actually took about 20. Very friendly staff customer service was great. I had a skillet, it was good. But what I didn’t like was portion size. For 10.99 I thought it would be bigger. Girlfriend had banana nut eagle. Good but chop walnuts a little smaller.

Not overly impressed with the food, but the service was awesome. Friendly and efficient waitress. Therein lie the stars. My scrambled eggs were overcooked and dry. The corned beef hash was mediocre. My wife was underwhelmed with her omelet. The restaurant draws a good crowd. Maybe we ordered the wrong items… but eggs? If you can’t get eggs right, well… you know. And with the crowd comes the noise, and the restaurant does get loud. I suppose if you’re in the neighborhood and craving breakfast, Jelly Café might be alright. But with Katie’s Kitchen, Egg Harbor Café, and a few other places in the area, you could do much better.

Not sure why took me so long after moving here, to get here for breakfast. First of all, The interior is modern and very clean. A flower in a pretty little vase at our table, big glasses of ice cold water AND our own little carafe of coffee. Score. My fiancé and I tried the eggs and corn beef and hash. My first time trying corned beef and hash. and it was great. Little to no salt which is a definite plus. The eggs were done perfectly and the potatoes are red skinned. yes! And the homemade jelly they provide? Ridiculously good. We will definitely be back. The interior, service(our waitress was super friendly and provided great service), and freshly made, great food. will bring me back.

I love the inside of this little breakfast place… It is a little tiny wish it was bigger. Have had their omelettes which are great!!! Their fiesta one was amazing with fresh avocado and a good salsa to put on it. Have also had their Tilapia tacos which I loved!!! Cute place good service. I recommend

If there’s any restaurant that’ll get your husband singing Destiny’s Child(«I don’t think you’re ready for this jelly!») on the whole car ride over, it’s gotta be this one. We were ready for this jelly and had a late Saturday brunch here. Menu offers plentiful breakfasty options like pancakes, crepes, and various egg dishes all day, in addition to lunch-type stuff like sandwiches and wraps. I tried the huevos rancheros, which was a hearty serving of chorizo, beans, and melted cheese on a crispy tortilla and 2 eggs prepared your way. I thought it was a little heavy handed on the salsa though, and the cubed potatoes were a bit wet. A pot roast skillet was enjoyed by the husband, although we both thought the corned beef hash was a swing and a whiff. CBH had a lack of potatoes, the beef was stringy and kind of crispy… but we didn’t care for it. A-OK service.

Like this place! I enjoyed my french toast banana almond. Actually its more like pudding though or maybe that’s just their style. It’s crowded and small space but the food was amazing.

Great service. After grand lux café the beignets here are awesome. I would go here just for the warm beignets. The overall food was great. The place is nice as well.

Came here spontaneously with my girlfriend. Looked it up on Unilocal because all of the good reviews it has. Place is small and loud. Have a little patio section for a couple of tables. Tables are very close to each other so don’t expect too much privacy. The bathrooms are facing the tables which make it a little awkward to go to. Very nice inside though. Took the waiter 10 min to take our order since it was busy. Started off with orange juice which was a little on the sweeter side but good overall. Unfortunately, they don’t give you any straws. Had the Hawaiian omelette and my gf had the asparagus and egg. It was DELICIOUS! food hands down better than Elly’s. If you’re looking for a new breakfast place and you’re in the area come on by.

A GREAT addition to the breakfast lunch spots in the burbs compared to a lot of sub standard crap out there. We’ve been coming here since they opened and it’s worth the drive. The regular menu has a lot of good choices on it and the weekly specials just make it even better. They really show creative and tasty options and should cover whatever mood your in!
