I was looking for a place for my daughter and I to eat breakfast for her birthday and recently stumbled upon this on yelp. The reviews were literally amazing so therefore, of course I had to try it. Literally everything was exactly what the reviews promised. The ambiance was a bit busy when we arrived but that just made me more excited to try the food. The breakfast pizza with everything it was a highly recommended item according to our server. My daughter wanted something sweet, so she got French toast with berries and eggs n bacon on the side while her girlfriend got an omelette of some sort. The service was prompt and we were checked on often. I will for sure be a returning customer. This place was amazing. read more

Another successful visit.. with great service and amazing food. Plus affordable prices! I wish we lived closer, but we always plan a visit when in the area. We tried the steak & eggs for the first time.. the 10 oz New York strip was plenty of meat anf cooked to perfection. We were really impressed and all for $23! What a steal. I was craving their cinnamon roll and came out fresh. Highly recommend this place! Never disappoints. read more

Went to Saturday breakfast with my husband again. My husband got the traditional breakfast, I got the Berry's French toast. It was sooo amazing! Although it was busy, the waitress, Nicole, was on her A game, checked in with us often and I was impressed on how many plates she could carry as she was checking on the other customers. Always quality food, always friendly staff and we never leave with a bad taste in our mouth. (Get it ?) read more

A Hidden Breakfast Gem - Jay Berry's Delivers! I can't say enough good things about breakfast at Jay Berry's. Tucked away with a cozy, welcoming vibe, this place nails that classic hometown diner feel -- but with food that seriously exceeds expectations. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a smile and seated quickly, even during the busy morning rush. The staff was attentive without hovering, keeping our coffee topped off and making great recommendations without hesitation. I ordered the country-fried steak and eggs, and they were everything you want on a slow weekend morning -- crispy, golden-brown breading, tender steak inside, rich gravy, and eggs cooked exactly to order. The hash browns were perfectly crisped, and the biscuit on the side was flaky, buttery heaven. My partner went for the pancake combo, and those pancakes deserve their review: light, fluffy, and just the right amount of sweetness. Paired with thick-cut bacon and scrambled eggs, it was the kind of hearty, satisfying meal that keeps you full all day. Prices are reasonable, portions are generous, and the quality is consistently high. Whether you're a regular or a first-timer, you're treated like family. Jay Berry's puts care into everything -- from the food to the friendly service. Jay Berry's is a must-visit if you're anywhere near the area and craving a classic, delicious breakfast. I'll be back read more

First time here was with my Dad at their Issaquah location. That place had a nicer ambiance. This place needs more character and charm? Service was great. Greater and welcomed and our pizza was ready when we got there. Their Pizza has to be one of their best items. The extra cheese is delicious and takes their pizza to another level. read more

Got a breakfast burrito and waffle breakfast for take away. The food was cold, lacked flavor and the eggs in the waffle breakfast were ice cold. Even though it was a to go order I picked it up as soon as it was ready, I live within 10 min of the place and the food should've still had some heat. I also felt that the food lacked flavor and was very bland, especially for what we paid. Wouldn't recommend for take out and would be hesitant to dine in. read more

Foods always good, friendly staff, decent prices, and easy to get to for us. Surprisingly the pizza was delicious. So many good dishes here too. read more

Service is good but food is not edible. Would not come back. Easy location to access of a hike.

The food was perfect portions!. The service was amazing!!, the ambiance was great for families. Overall will visit again!!.

I visited on a Saturday, and the wait time was pretty reasonable--about 15 minutes, which was great. We ordered the veggie omelette with pancakes and hashbrowns. The hashbrowns were really good, better than anything you'd get at Denny's or IHOP. However, the omelette was similar to what you'd find at Denny's. I wouldn't recommend the pancakes--they were tough and hard to finish. The service was okay, but I did notice some reviews mentioning that the staff can be a bit rude, and I'd have to agree with that. read more

I've passed by this cafe numerous times but didn't realize what it was or how large it was inside. I went on a Saturday and the lot and restaurant were packed. Three of us waited about 15 minutes to be seated, and the restaurant was definitely busy. I'm not sure if we were forgotten or if service is typically slow, but it was almost 30 min before we placed our order for food. We waited for a long time before we got our food and it was pretty standard diner food, nothing special. I ordered the country fried steak and eggs, and the portion was decent sized but it wasn't anything wow worthy. It took us awhile to flag someone down to get a box and the bill so we could leave, so don't come here if you're in a rush (or have small impatient children!). read more

Jay Berry's is a nice little spot for breakfast. I came Sunday at 9am and the parking lot only had 2 spots left. There were a couple parties ahead of us and I was quoted 15 minutes for 2 people but it actually was only 5 minutes. I got the sausage sandwich and it was delicious - a biscuit split in half topped with 2 sausage patties, scrambled eggs, and gravy. Everything was pretty good and the hashbrowns were crispy. Only thing was that for us the food took about 30-40 minutes to come out and parties who arrived after us already had their food. Will be back if I'm in the area craving breakfast food. read more

The last time I dined here was end of 2019. A group I belonged to reminded me on how we need to support this mom and pop shop, so we drove 30 mins to have breakfast and they did not disappoint. We both loved why we ordered. Everything so fresh. The prices were very reasonable as well. Plus your leftovers are neatly packaged sticker and all. Our server Yvette was amazing. Everyone greeted us to let us know someone will be with us as we waited to be seated. You don't get that at very many places where everyone acknowledges you. We took home dessert because we are so full. Can't wait to try the home made cheese cake and apple pie. read more

I'd give our breakfast 6 stars if I could! Everything was cooked perfectly as ordered, including crispy bacon and hashbrowns. Over easy eggs were just right. The pancake had a great surface with a fluffy interior. Even the decaf coffee was great! Add in the great service, and we can't wait to go back read more

This was OK. I was very excited to try this place. However, I found that they did not have enough staff to meet the demand. It was so noisy inside that we didn't even know the waitress was trying to take our order because she was standing 2-3 feet behind our table talking to us. We've been waiting a while. Maybe it wasn't the first time she came and whispered at us. Lol. We were seated next to a pole and so didn't come around to the other side of the table where we could see her. She seemed annoyed with us. The first time we ordered their highly touted $4 mimosas it took 15 minutes to arrive and the second time they never arrived. It was difficult even to get coffee refilled. Their cinnamon rolls are delicious. I would come back only if it was the only option. read more

Nice big portions of food. The service was fast and friendly. Clean restaurant with a bar side. Waitress always made sure we were taken cared of. Highly recommend to come and eat! read more

This place is extremely mid. Their "fresh cinnamon rolls" taste like stale bread drenched in poorly made cream cheese icing. Their coffee has no flavor. Their biscuits and gravy tastes like it came straight out of a can from Safeway, and the waffles also tasted stale. Seems like the only thing people like about this place is 5 dollar mimosas on the weekend. I won't be coming back. read more

Solid breakfast spot with classic American options. We were seated right away on a Sunday morning, and our waitress was friendly. The food was decent, not especially flavorful or memorable, but it was clean, well-prepared, and hit the basics. read more

*Biscuits and gravy 4/5 *Eggs Benedict 3.5/5 *California omelette 5/5 *Katy's special 3/5 -Biscuits and gravy good portion size, good with plenty of gravy but not super wowed by the gravy. Better then most. -Eggs Benedict was about average. Eggs where pouched properly and the ham was good quality. Medium portion size. -California omelette my mom really loves! Fluffy eggs and right ratio of vegies to egg. The potatoes were nice and crispy. -Katy's special was the largest portion of everything. Real filling meal with tons of hash browns which is always good. Nothing too special about it but definitely a good hearty meal. read more

Good local spot for breakfast. Four of us came late on a Sat morning just before 11:00AM and had about a 15 min wait for a table. The place was definitely busy. My bride ordered the Spinach Omelet ($14) and I went with the Southwestern Omelet ($14.50) and they were both good looking dishes with generous portions. Both of us said they weren't quite as flavorful as we had hoped. Service from Nicole was excellent! read more

For what it is, Jay Berry's is amazing. I mean... look at those $4 mimosas (and they're strong too). Friendly service, large menu and portions, and quick food that is still yummy! What's not to like. I'll definitely be returning! read more

Had a great experience at this little neighborhood hangout. get there early because they fill up fast! As you enter, you are greeted by a giant cinnamon roll on the hostess station. Apparently they are popular for their cinnamon rolls, but we didn't get one! The server was extra cool and we really enjoyed our food. My littlest got the strawberry shortcake, but it didn't have a lot of strawberries on it so he was disappointed. We got chicken fried steak, avocados with poached eggs, and a Denver omelette. They were all quite delicious. The atmosphere is crowded and loud so expect to feel a little cramped because the tables are very close together. Overall a great place for breakfast. read more

I wish I had visited Jay Berry's Cafe when Jon Ryan used to hang here. This cafe and restaurant is a place that I wouldn't have ever known about had I not driven the backroads to Issaquah, as this place is definitely a little secluded and a place where locals dine. I was meeting a friend for lunch and since she lives in Maple Valley, this was a great midpoint for us. Jay Berry's Cafe is a cute, local restaurant, which has some charm to it. Plus, they serve breakfast all day because sometimes you want a damn pancake in the middle of the day. We had lunch here on a weekday and the place was busy! Even on a Friday in the middle of the day, you can expect to find a lot of people here. Who knew? But, the space was large, so we were able to be seated immediately. I ordered the biscuits and gravy plate, which came with two eggs. I love biscuits and gravy, so was really looking forward to fluffy biscuits and hearty gravy slathered all over the plate. But, the biscuits were so-so. Not fluffy, but not rock hard. The biscuits just seemed a little overbaked to my liking. But not bad. Gravy and scrambled eggs were fine. I added some hot sauce for some flava flav. Nothing special about this plate, but not horrible. It was A-OK. Breakfast seems to be king here, but I would be open to trying a lunch entree, in hopes of having better luck. I do like how friendly the staff are and that most people who dine here seem to be locals who all know each other. But my meal was not something I'd order again. Better luck next time. read more

After many years in and out of the issaquah area, finally got to try Jay Berry's. Solid comfort food that I can see why it has a regular following. The line does get long so get there early to get a buzzer. We waited about 20 minutes to be seated as a party of 3. If you're looking for that breakfast that will taste savory and fill you up this is the place. The portions are humongous. They have a special house made fromaggi sauce that is in a lot our their dishes. I had to try it and got the Kathie's special. It was everything I expected in terms of texture and creaminess. The potatoes had the crispy ness at the top and the different cheeses melted just right to go with the poached egg. The only thing I woke have liked more is to have either a ham or sausage in this dish to add some more depth to it. I couldn't finish all the potatoes and cheese as I was going into food coma pretty fast. You will have leftovers to take back. read more

Ordered a pizza and arrived to pick it up at the scheduled time. I was told it wasn't quite ready and to wait on the bench in the entry and they would bring it to me, ok no problem. After about 20 minutes I went to check the status as this was a long wait to be told it was done, I asked why they didn't bring it to me and the waitress said she never told me to wait at the bench. Unacceptable service. read more

I love this place . I've been coming here since it was Leonard's... the pizza is great the food is exceptional

Great place to get breakfast. Parking lot can get full so come early if you can. The portions are huge and filling. Had the Southwest omelette and it was good. The hash browns were really good, and having some salsa and hot sauce to add to the omelette made the dish come together nicely. Will come back to try other things on the menu. read more

We always enjoy coming here. We typically sit in the lounge as it's more comfortable and they have sports on the TVs, which my wife likes. There's been an older waitress (she's small, light brown hair) that's been our favorite for years. Last 2 visits, she wasn't there. Not sure if she's on vacation or if she retired/left, but now there's an older gentleman our last 2 visits. He was ok the 1st time; seems amiable enough, but tonight is the first time I didn't tip 20% or better. Left 15%. He took our orders, brought our drinks, and that's the last time he came to our table. Seemed more interested in the Mariners game. We had to ask a young waitress (who, btw, was vacuuming. While people were still eating. I get they close at 9, but this was about 8:20. I come from a restaurant family & worked in many restaurants. Never, ever did we start closing tasks where customers could see us) to please check on our order, since it's been a while. She brought our meals. No one came to check after 5 minutes or so to see if everything was OK. We needed water and ketchup and more napkins. We had finished, had stacked our plates, and waited again for a bit before I could catch his eye. Finally did, brought our check; no "how was everything?" Very disappointed in our visit tonight. read more

We came here for brunch on a weekday holiday and the parking lot was almost full! We ordered the French Toast Breakfast which includes 3 pieces of thick slides French toast served with 2 eggs any style, 2 slices of bacon and a sausage link and also The Southwestern Omelet which is a flurry omelet loaded with fresh avocado, topped with pepper jack cheese and fresh diced tomatoes served with salsa and hash browns and toast (or other bread of your choice). It was a very filling meal. We enjoyed the amount of filling that the omelet had, although it could have been fluffier like the description had suggested. The hash browns were pretty standard but we would have liked it to be cooked a little longer so that it was crispier. Overall the menu was pretty extensive and there's definitely other offerings that we would come back to try. It was a little stuffy in the seating area though - there wasn't much air flow and it was a little strange that they were vacuuming when they had so many customers but ‍ read more
