I used to come to this same building 40+ years ago to meet my great-grandmother. It was your typical restaurant of the time with pies and cakes behind glass as you walked in. I loved it, great memories. I'm so happy Jelly Cafe has updated the place and serves some delicious breakfast! Lots to choose from, and lots of standard American breakfast choices, and plenty of Mexican dishes as well, which i love 😋👍. Food was very good. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive...

Stu and staff were great. The burgers here are so phenomenal and the waffle fries are unbeatable. I loved coming here. They were very accommodating to my pup yorkie and even made her a patty. We really loved conversing about life with Stu and hope to meet his lovely wife one day when I return for breakfast!
Thanks for the good old Midwestern hospitality that feels like family. Glad I stopped in here tonight. Great jams too. Oh and loved my mimosa!
