The food and services are average but the price is amazing. Great location too and it's a walking distance to the bowling alley. I will definitely go back.

I love this place! I've passed by it so many times and finally decided to stop in for breakfast. It's definitely feels like home. Service was so prompt and warm. Don't expect any of that fancy coffee/drinks that they might have at a Seattle brunch. Hot chocolate was superb and portions are insane! Eggs benedict were delicious and omelet was huge. I will definitely be back to try some other items.

I can't believe I waited so long to go here - this is a great old style cafe, with great portions and a home feel. The servers were really nice. My partner and I both got omelets, I chose French toast with mine and it was such a huge portion. You will not leave hungry!! The coffee refills kept coming too. Definitely want to continue to support businesses like this who care about their customers.

Okay for breakfast. The senior locals sure seem to like it. My husband and his business partner go there on occasion. I try to stay away.

For years driving to/from Bothell or Woodinville via 522, I had passed Jay's Cafe in Kenmore. I enjoy checking out long time, well worn, indie, family run diner type restaurants especially with a hearty breakfast focus...places like Voula's, Shay's, Flo-Anna's, Beth's, North Star, Geraldine's Counter, Glo's, Lost Lake, Maltby Cafe, ad naseum. Got to savor them because sometimes sadly they close permanently like Square Knot and Leena's. Finally, I had the opportunity to have breakfast at Jay's Cafe with The Homie (7/23/23). Definitely well worn with a variety of indoor seating - counter, tables or booths, gotta love the popcorn ceiling and overhead fans too. There was also a case filled with pies and other baked goods by the entrance. We were warmly greeted and handed menus and ice water once seated. Nice variety of menu items for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. Seeing other orders going out, definitely piping hot from the kitchen line to your table, generous servings. The Homie decided on Chicken Fried Steak that came with hash browns, two over easy eggs, and a biscuit. He enjoyed this thoroughly as it became part of the clean plate club and started nibbling off my plate too. As an aside, he had dined there two days later with another family member and had the Steak and Eggs. I ordered the featured special on this Sunday morning. This had a ham scramble topped with shredded cheddar cheese, two strips of bacon, two sausage links, hash browns, and choice of toast, French toast, or pancakes. I requested the pancakes and short two stack was fluffy and came with ample whipped butter and syrup. Overall tasty, decent, and tremendous bang for one's culinary buck. Parking with easy access off of 522, welcoming and attentive service, staff looked upbeat and enjoyed working there, generous menu servings, and easy on the wallet. Glad I finally made the effort to check out Jay's Cafe!

Finnicky. My order was delivered exactly to spen. The menu had sort of a Greek flare? Which is geat by me.Freindly service, efficiently run. No glutten free breads but plenty of alternatives tto fill the void. Kitchy, mom and pop. A bit dated, but the food is hitting the finnicky eaters standards. Extra crispy hash browns, arrived just right (I asked for almost burnt and I got what I wanted). Very reasonably-priced.

Great wait staff but the food is mediocre. The coffee really needs work, it's very watery and stale. Food isn't hot when it arrives. Place needs some tlc
