    We haven't been to Crackers in a really long time but we were in the area decided to stop and have breakfast. We had our dogs with us and they do have a dog-friendly patio, which is nice! I ordered the girls two scrambled eggs with no seasoning, and it was delivered just that way! I had the Classic Eggs Benedict, one of my favorite breakfasts. I asked for the potatoes to be extra crispy and we kinda missed on that but it was fine. They could have used a LOT more seasoning for sure! The Benedict itself was fine, hollandaise sauce was ok...It was a bit pasty tasting and needed a lot more lemon added to it! Wife ordered the Traditional Breakfast with Country Fried Steak and gravy. It was huge and again, potatoes weren't done as ordered and she ordered her eggs medium, which technically they were but also a bit too brown. Overall an ok dish...gravy was thick in lacked flavor in my opinion. We also ordered pancakes and they were good! Hit the spot and they are good size pancakes!!!! Easy for two share.. Overall, service was great and efficient, we had an enjoyable time and we satisfied our bellies!

    Wait times are always quick! Today Sunday during Brunch time we only waited 5 minutes. We have never had a bad experience. Service is always amazing & food is delicious. I specifically ordered a water with no ice, and really appreciated the manager coming around asking to refill waters so your not waiting thirsty. This is a great spot for everyone, families, friends, this spot is very welcoming!

    Oh Crackers! What happened? This used to be a favorite breakfast and brunch spot prior to the pandemic and even during! While it has been awhile since we've frequented, this last visit was a disaster and I see what others were referencing in their poor reviews. First, the temperature was that of an ice box. It's not that hot yet to be keeping the inside THAT cold. It was uncomfortable. Our waitress was originally nice when she came up to the table and then quickly changed her attitude when we had a request. Heaven forbid. We ordered a cinnamon roll to start as we usually do small entrees and when it came out it was literally cold - like our bodies in the AC haha- and the icing was hardened. We told her that, nicely, and requested one that was hot. That's normal, right? She then comes back with the same cinnamon roll and tells us she microwaved it. We were a bit shocked as it's not proper etiquette to take food to and from the kitchen back to the customer (unless maybe it's a steak at a high end restaurant.) The icing, at this point was hardened and the roll itself was chewy and even more not pleasant and we were reluctant to dig in anyways after her transporting it and seemingly annoyed by us. We ordered Eggs Benedict, which my friend said the hollandaise sauce tasted powdery. My avocado toast was covered in sprouts and just not good. We requested the cinnamon roll be removed from the bill and she rolled her eyes and walked away although she did oblige. Seemingly she had to get manager approval as the manager then walked over to our table briskly. She did not come across receptive and her body language was defensive, half turned towards our table already ready to walk away and just said "everything alright here?" To which we just said "sure...yeah" as WHO would want to explain anything further with that reception. Food was terrible. Service was terrible. Atmosphere was uncomfortable. Plenty of other brunch places in the valley to not have to return.

    First time here and place was nice a cozy. I ordered the chicken fried steak and my wife ordered the crepes. Our server was Amber and she is very friendly and nice. The food was delicious and we both enjoyed our meal. They have outdoor patio if you want to bring your furry friend.

    Chilaquiles with Carnitas 3-23

    My first time dining at Crackers & Co Cafe. I was surprised how busy they were on a Friday a.m. I was greeted when I walked in and noticed they have two dining areas. I decided to sit at their bar. Once I sat down I was greeted by Ana, my server. I ordered a Bloody Mary and their chilaquiles with carnitas, eggs scrambled soft and a side of green chile on the side. The eggs were perfectly scrambled and the chips were nice and Chris. However, the green chili sauce had a weird smell to it. It almost smelt like cooked plastic. The flavor was ok but the smell was really offensive. Ana was a good server. I would probably go back again or maybe to one of their other locations in Mesa.

    Light and airy atmosphere with friendly and attentive service. Breakfast and children's menu portions were generous, but the same cannot be said for the half sandwich lunch options. Food is tasty but nothing special.

    The food was good and the staff was super friendly during my recent visit. I enjoyed my experience there and will definitely be back. We sat on the patio which was super relaxing given the weather is finally starting to cool down.

    On a recent outing for the expectation of some good down home country breakfast I remembered from my youth in the southeast we decided on Crackers & Co. Although it was not our first visit and after having tried many breakfast joints in the Valley, and focusing on wanting a country-style meal, we were not disappointed. Most of their selections are traditional, typical and seen often throughout the Vally, but there's something very different with Crackers! When it comes to how they actually prepare and season their offerings, it's very, very in sync with the South's ingredients, styles, preparation and its seasoning! From their biscuits, pancakes, Benedicts, skillets, omelets, burritos, and tradition, vegan or vegetarian - everything tried has been fabulous! I must say though, that my favorite breakfast of all time is Chicken Fried Steak and Sausage gravy, and they make one, if not the best I've had in the Valley. Not to say there lunches aren't as good, but hmm they are. The Reuben, Tuna Melt Deluxe, Roast Beef Avocado Melt, just to mention a few items we've tried are hard to match. We've been there quite a few times, and their consistency is incredible, not to mention the excellent service we expect and always get. Cracker, you score in my top 10 breakfast joints in the Valley.

    Vatican skillet

    This was my first time ordering from this location as I usually go to the one in Mesa. Bf ordered car side pickup for me. The hostess couldn't spell "Stephanie" so my order was under "Steph." Okay? LOL. When I arrived I called the number listed on the parking space. The host replied that he would bring the food out if it were ready and if it wasn't, he wouldn't. Again, okay?? Lol. He came out shortly and provided my order as I gave him my card to process. I checked my order and it was correct (hallelujah!) albeit my poached egg on my Benedict had slipped off and broke :( As for the food- I LOVE Crackers and Co! They have an extensive menu from breakfast- skillets, omelets, Benedicts, muffins, pancakes, waffles, French toast, blintzes, crepes, parfait, oatmeal, to lunch- sandwiches, soups, salads, and burgers! (Although I stick to brekkie!) I've tried most of the breakfast items and there's always something for my mood! The Vatican skillet (sausage, bacon, mushroom, onions, green/red peppers, potatoes, egg, and cheese) was a generous portion that we were able to eat for two meals! I chose to sub the bacon on the California eggs Benedict (English muffin topped with Spinach, bacon, avo, tomato, poached eggs, and hollandaise) for Canadian bacon. Mhmm! Bf thought he didn't like hollandaise but he was proven wrong! Also their country potatoes are crisp and delicious! I like to top mine with black pepper, Tabasco, and ketchup! I just adore Crackers and Co, okay? Check them out, there is something for everyone! (Sponsor me Crackers!)

    The service was excellent! My friend and I asked to sit in the warmer part of the restaurant as the AC was on full force and the host gave us a great table. They delivered coffee right away and took our order. I ordered a chicken broccoli scramble. It did not taste very good, maybe the spices on the overcooked chicken. I ate about 15% as I was hungry by 1030 am. Had it boxed thinking my husband might like it. He did not.

I got the bang bang shrimp and it was good (6/10). The problem that I have is the pistachio gin fizz was an absolute no! I am a HUGE fan of pistachio and gin so immediately I had to get his drink but it was beyond mediocre. Are we drinking only syrup??? My last complaint is the coconut tres leches dessert.... Do we actually know how to make tres leches or we just naming desserts however we want? Just curious. It came out super hot, steaming more like a molten cake.

While the ambience is fairly simple, the overall experience is a positive one, especially once the food arrives. I ordered the lox and bagel and was impressed by how substantial the portion was. The lox was generously layered, with a large amount of arugula on top. The arugula appeared to be lightly dressed with olive oil, which added great flavor. While it did not fully align with my personal dietary preferences, it was well executed, and I would be happy to return to see if it can be adjusted. The dirty chai was another highlight in terms of flavor. It was well spiced and not overly sweet, which I appreciated. Although it was described as very hot when delivered, it arrived closer to lukewarm, but the taste itself was enjoyable. Service was efficient and attentive. The check was dropped off relatively early, which initially felt a bit quick, but our server continued to check in on us throughout the meal, creating a balanced and courteous experience. The fresh squeezed orange juice was excellent, and everything we ordered was well prepared. Parking in the area can be challenging, though the nearby parking structure behind Pedalhaus makes it more manageable. Overall, this is a reliable brunch option with strong portions, thoughtful flavors, and enough positives to make it a place I would gladly return to.

Service was okay, though not especially attentive, as our water wasn't refilled. At the host stand there was some confusion when we arrived. She didnt realize we were standing there and then when my boyfriend asked a question about a menu item she didnt respond. Not sure if she was just not paying attention, the music was too loud, or didnt want to converse with us. Sort of awkward. Overall, the experience was mixed, but the butter cake French toast was delicious.

The guy who took our order was uncheerful & came across as "I don't want to be here; what do you want?" Not the best impression. We placed our order & were lucky enough to find a seat. There is a small patio on their south side; the light rail to their north. The guy who delivered our food was more friendly. The cinnamon roll was so dry, I swear it had been sitting out for a week -- and there was too much cinnamon. My sister's classic eggs benedict was unappetizing; the English muffin, too, was dry. So dry she practically needed a steak knife to cut into it. There's a Proof Bread shop just down the street. How Daily Jam can have such God-awful muffins is beyond me. The potatoes had no seasoning, she had to salt them -- and the salt & pepper shakers needed filling. My croque madame was edible, if simple. In short, there is absolutely no desire to visit Daily Jam again.

My husband and I found this place online, and it looked like a great spot for brunch. When we arrived, there was no one at the hostess stand, and it took quite a while for anyone to acknowledge us. When the hostess finally came over, we asked for a table for two. She immediately told us there was only outdoor seating available and didn't even mention that waiting for an indoor table was an option. Keep in mind, it was 110°F on a Sunday in Arizona. My husband had really been looking forward to trying this place, so we asked what was available and decided to stay. We were seated outside near the entrance. Shortly afterward, we watched the hostess tell other guests who arrived after us that indoor seating was available with only a 5-minute wait. Why wasn't that option offered to us? We absolutely would have waited. Unfortunately, the hostess's attitude and the way the situation was handled completely changed the experience for us. It left us feeling unwelcome, and we weren't able to enjoy our meal the way we had hoped. The food may have been fine, but customer service is a huge part of dining out, and this experience overshadowed everything else. Safe to say, we won't be returning. An unfriendly and dismissive environment is not something I'm interested in supporting.

One poor new waiter dropped a plate on the floor, then later knocked glasses off the rack above the bar & shattered a couple right next to guests sitting there. I genuinely felt bad for him because you could tell he was having a rough shift. That said, I really appreciated that they acknowledged the long wait & gave us a discount without us having to ask. That kind of accountability goes a long way. Overall, I'd still go back & give them another try because the atmosphere was fun, the vibe was there, and I can see the potential. Every restaurant has an off day -- especially during a busy brunch rush.
