Jennings House Eatery

The cutest breakfast spot in Pt Loma! Right near the beach, great to dine in with lots of shaded outdoor patio space. Just off the main road so easy to pick up to go orders on the way to the beach. I love the breakfast burrito with added sausage. The owner, Kathy, is so nice! She bakes everything fresh in the mornings. This spot has been around for 7 years and still seems to be a hidden gem!

We ate here two times and after an underwhelming experience the first we came back because it's a quiet place to eat. This place is very understaffed which they have been for a very long time and the stress on the current employees bounces onto their customers. We felt offended that the server said he'd allow us to sit the two of us at a 4 person table but if a group of 4 came, they'd have to seat us inside instead. Of course it's a business but anyone who chooses to eat there is a pure dollar sign and not a place that cares about their food. In a place where there are many options to eat, we won't be back. There was a group of 3 who asked to sit at a table where there were 6 seats and the server said no, didn't even give them the option. They got up and left. The food itself is very average but we enjoyed the quiet ambiance and the order from QR code.

Cute breakfast spot!!!! With parking in the back. And the food was decent all American breakfast. However, if you are in a hurry go elsewhere! The service, the coffees, glacial pace. Incredible slow! Also, everything is via an online ordering system. It's very in personal for a sit down establishment and makes paying for the table awkward. Covid is over, I would love actual table service.

Came here for new years eve breakfast. Staff were very helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend ordering a croissant or other pastry, was the best I have had in a long time. The location is very unique and there are inside and outside dining options. Highly recommend coming here!

Our office moved to Point Loma so I was checking out local coffee places and my boss told me to check out Jennings! It's maybe a block away so that was a plus! For my first visit I had an iced matcha latte, then I saw the pastries and I overindulged, I ended up picking up a pistachio baklava, an original baklava and a sticky bun. I literally said "treat yourself." I got to meet Kathy the owner and she was really sweet, she makes the pastries minus the baklava in house. My matcha hit the spot a good amount of caffeine and sweetened just how I prefer, my pastries were AMAZING. I had to stop myself from finishing the sticky bun, I promised my husband that I would share. The baklava on the other hand I demolished, their longer pieces so to me it seemed like I had 4 pieces per stick. Today I ended up getting their chai latte and same thing, really tasty, sweetened how I like and just very good. Definitely have to try their breakfast next time!

Nice vibe, very relaxed. My friend was not blown away because he is use to the old fashion menus on the table and someone taking your order. I thought it worked well, I placed our orders at the table online and it came out exactly as specified.My only ding is that the French toast was baked, it did not thrill us, just mush and the individual flavors were lost.Awesome wait staff, friendly and attentive. I will be back, I want to try lunch.

My partner and I came here on a Saturday morning on our way home from a nice getaway in SD. When I first walked up I was pleased with the exterior charm- the place looked comfortable with outdoor dining and cute foliage on the balcony.We got seated outside right away as there weren't many people dining there. We were told to scan the QR code for ordering. This process was mostly simple, a little confusing since each person has to scan it on their own phones to order and it's unclear whether the orders will be linked or not until the last screen. There were elderly patrons at a nearby table that were struggling with this process.At the end, you can opt to pay for your yourself or the entire table, all from your phone. This means there is really no table service and therefore I believe it should affect the tip.We ordered a coffee and a french toast plate each. My drink came first, followed by our food, followed later by his drink. The food did not look appetizing when it arrived and I couldn't finish my plate. The french toast did not taste fresh, the eggs seemed rehydrated or something. We didn't actually hear the sounds of a typical kitchen and are fairly certain our food was microwaved.Overall, the staff we interacted with were sweet and kind. There could be major benefits in small changes like adding sun shades to the outdoor dining area (we had to relocate inside due to sun), music throughout to improve ambiance, maybe doing away with QR ordering and leaving it for menu viewing only as an option. This restaurant could be a vibrant staple attracting people to a highly walkable street full of great independent shops. Just needs a little TLC.

This is a great breakfast and coffee spot!! It's a charming quiet spot with a lovely outdoor patio space as well as indoor or front porch seating. The acai bowls are generous and so fresh! So many combinations to consider. Breakfast choices are from traditional to excellent avocado toast selections! Pastries are yummy! Plenty of parking and you're close to the bay to take a walk after breakfast! We go at least once a week! Locally owned and operated too! The owner is usually behind the counter and espresso drinks are quickly served; not much waiting! It's a local favorite and reasonably priced!

I love coming to Jennings house for breakfast. I moved in down the street a year ago and it's one of my favorite routines to come here after a walk. Kathy is amazing and so friendly! I love bringing friends and guests that visit here as well. my favorite is the breakfast burrito and iced chai. highly recommend!

Don't bring your laptop! The building and surroundings are lovely, but staff was weirdly brusque and unfriendly to me. I assume this is because I was working on my laptop. Within 20 minutes of arriving - and before my food arrived - two staff members approached me about a time limit on tables, even though the place was empty except me and one other occupied table. An unpleasant experience - don't recommend.
