Hidden Gem in Bantam!
Jackie’s Restaurant is one of those rare hidden gems you’re glad you stumbled upon. Tucked away in Bantam, it’s an unassuming and super casual spot—but don’t let the laid-back vibe fool you. The food is fantastic. Fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Whether you're grabbing breakfast, lunch, or a quick bite, Jackie’s delivers every time. Friendly service, generous portions, and a cozy, no-frills atmosphere make this place a true local treasure. Highly recommend if you're in the area and want something delicious without the fuss.

My fiance and I stopped by Jackie's on a whim and to our surprise were pleasantly impressed. We walked in not sure if they were even open, but were greeted by a waitress and sat right down. The service was excellent and although there was barely anybody else there (except for a table with 2 ladies) the food was amazing! I got the western omelet with American cheese and it was cooked to perfection. Not fluffy, but had a ton of good flavor. My fiance got the Bantam Skillet and said it was really good as well! We highly recommend this place!

My daughter was served sour milk, I had gunk in the bottom of my tea cup, and the seats were all ripped up. The food was OK and the service wasn't great. When we arrived the waitress hesitantly looked at me and said, I guess I'll have to turn a light on that side of the dining room for you since we are full on the other side(it was a Sunday morning).

First time there. The waitress was excellent however my cheese omelet was lukewarm and small compared to other omelettes I've had elsewhere.

Felt the need to update my review. They are so friendly and have consistently delicious food. They even updated their menu and let me order an old item not on their menu anymore. Love it here!

What does 7/4 mean to a slave? Or rather when a black and brown family arrives to a local establishment and is turned away at the door after calling to verify their ability to seat a party of 13? When asked what the gap in communication was, no answer was provided by both the hostess and waitstaff…questions that need answers….
Best food and nicest staff around. Shame on the liars that recently tried calling the staff racist.

This is our favorite restaurant in town. The staff are some of the friendliest people on the planet, the food is great and reasonably priced.

Very sad to say, but I do believe they denied to sit us because of the color of our skin. We were a table of seven and there were 20 seats available. This makes me and my family very sad as we spent a week camping up here and wanted to finish the trip at a local diner. The lady verbatim told us we are not welcome
