10 Best Breakfast Restaurants in Jersey City

“Great little neighborhood spot… we watched their regulars be welcomed in with a genuine greeting and smile, and as first-timers, we were impressed with the owner’s friendliness and time spent getting to know us. Everything we ordered was fabulous… Savory comfort food and affordable. Will definitely be back to this charming restaurant next time we visit NJ. Outstanding! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻“

“Such a cute coffee shop with ample seating!! I ordered a flat white which was delicious!! It was smooth, well-balanced with notes of caramel and dark chocolate. Staff are also super friendly and inviting :) Will be back to try the food next time!“

“Such amazing and warmhearted people, I love how I was craving for my usual breakfast sandwich for an amazing price and I couldn’t find one nearby the Exchange Place area, till I caught my eye on a little food truck stand… I will definitely come back and support this local/small business. Well deserved for these kind people.“

“awesome food awesome workers terrific owner“

“My friend and I had great moments at Mauricio’s Restaurant (yes, we visited it twice). The food is amazing, and the atmosphere is incredible with a lot of good people. Staff and regular guests made us feel like home! Go for the Grilled Cheese with your favourite topping and just enjoy! Highly recommended 😌“

“It’s simple, laid back, and neighborhood friendly. Just like its name it’s BASIC & honestly I like the average vibes it offers.

The giant windows allow great natural light in, and the space is rustic mixed with a bookstore. It would be great if they would place outdoor tables to invite visitors in. Honestly sometimes I can’t tell whether they are open or not….

Additionally, I do wish they offered variety such as sandwiches and dinner items and catered for longer hours until 7:30 pm. It would be ideal considering there’s a rush in the area past 6 pm. I am very curious to see how they stay afloat now with the new bagel shop down the block.

The female cashier is nice as well as the chef. The owner doesn’t show much expression or emotion, and I respect him for keeping to himself. I just hope you can keep up with the changes in the neighborhood, I’m rooting for you Basic Cafe!

All in all, I recommend.“

“excelente atención, comida deliciosa 💯 recomendados.“

“Classic bagel spot in New Jersey!
Wonder Bagels is a popular place known for its fresh, dense, and flavorful bagels. They offer a variety of spreads and breakfast options, and the place usually stays busy with locals grabbing their morning bite.

I tried a plain bagel with cream cheese for the first time. The bread felt a bit hard — maybe that’s how bagels are supposed to be! Taste was okay for me, probably because I’m not used to it yet. But it was a new and interesting experience. Might try a flavored one next time!“

“The owner was awesome very sweet and attentive. Food was amazing highly recommend this place“

“Excellent experience! I ordered a ham & cheddar cheese omelette with 3 buttermilk pancakes for pickup. It was ready when I arrived, the omelette was bigger than I expected and tasted great. The pancakes were great too. Butter, syrup, and utensils were included in the bag.“
