This is our first time having breakfast in Oroville and we opted for this place. The word is simply a Wow! Amazing staff, great food and very jolly atmosphere. The breakfast servings were humongous and the pancakes are divine. The owner Jenn is a great hostess and made us feel right at home. We are instant regulars ;). Thank you !! read more

In Oroville for my cousin's wedding and we were looking for a quick breakfast so we gave Jenn's Cafe a try and I am so glad we did. Very cute and quirky dinerish feel and the food was delicious. We recommend the waffle and the biscuits and gravy (so yum) and the service was outstanding. Everyone was very friendly and our coffee cups were never empty. We were in and out in a flash, but if we had the time, we definitely could have stayed longer to enjoy the beautiful morning and the delicious coffee. read more

Best breakfast burrito ever, awesome service, and you can even take your well behaved dogs to the outside sitting area

We stopped by this cafe to eat breakfast on our way through town. It was small and quaint. The waitresses were all so friendly and kind. Service was wonderful..a little bit of a wait for the food but it was ire worth it! My veggie inlet was the best I've had in a long time. They have homemade salsa that was so unique and delicious as well. My son had the Reuben sandwich and garlic fries that he loved. We will surely remember this place for the next time we drive through Oroville. read more

I was excited to go to this new cafe that just opened. It was quaint, clean and the waitresses happily greeted you. Service was decent enough, the food took awhile to come out, and the food was very ordinary. I had the shrimp basket special. I got a decent amount: The shrimp were the pre frozen type, and probably would never buy if I read the ingredients on the package. Oh well...so it was quite simple: Shrimp, fries, 1 slice of lemon, cocktail sauce and a soda. My partner had the Fish and Chips. He was asked if he wanted garlic fries, he said yes. The fish was ordinary, 2 slices glistening with grease. Fries ok. When I got the bill, I asked what the 75cents was...well that was for the garlic fries. Guess that was extra. It was great to support a new local business, but having 22.00 plus a tip for lunch, and not feeling satisfied when we walked out, is sadly disappointing. As we drove away, we compared a few other places in the area we go to from time to time. One we included costs 10 bucks and includes NY Steak at night. Having work hard for my money, I am sorry to say my buck will go farther elsewhere. It just was not worth if for me to have frozen fried food. But when a place says "Cafe" one should know well enough here in Oroville. read more

Food is good, service is great for the Cafe. Very friendly service and prompt. An important part of the food service. The food kept most of the old place's menu with a few new items added. read more

Great food especially breakfast they need a new building though because the place is a dump

The food is fresh and worth the wait. I'd give 5 stars... However, I am not a local so the service can be crap. Won't go into detail except that Everytime I get one particular server she has the worst attitude. But if you don't mind that too much. This place is yummy. :) read more

Great spot! Portions are big and food is delicious. The servers were very attentive and helpful. Will definitely be coming back here on our next trip to Oroville. read more

Our order came with alot of food but the place is really small. Definitely not baby/stroller friendly. They let someone at a table block entrance/exit and the person wouldn't move so we could push stroller out. read more

Visited Jenn's cafe twice while traveling through Oroville. Once for Breakfast and once for Lunch. I can recommend this cafe without hesitation to anyone that wants a good "home cooked" style meal. The staff was very friendly and our group of four was very impressed with every dish. I was very pleased with the fresh home made potato salad which we ordered as a side dish. Also, the thick cut bacon was the best I have eaten in a long time. read more

Been here a couple times for breakfast and had a great experience each time! For a small town cafe Jenn's does not leave you wanting, the waitress's here are very friendly, they greet you with a smile and make you feel welcome! They get to know their customers and greet their regulars with a kindness that makes you wish you could live in Oroville (crazy I know but just go with it) just for that experience! The food is good and so is their coffee! If you're looking for a great breakfast spot look no further than Jenn's! read more

My first and last experience with this restaurant occurred in under one minute. We walked in and asked how long the wait was. The response from the waitress was an exasperated sigh accompanied with an melodramatic eye-roll shoulder shrug combination, "I don't know people should be clearing soon." Then she walked off. read more

I have loved this place since i was a kid...the staff is great and so sweet...the little diner is so cozy and i love all the windows so you can enjoy the outside while you eat your meal. The home fries are amazing. I love their waffles! And you can never go wrong with their chicken strips. read more

I have eaten there 3 times now. The food is good. Service is ok not very friendly but I get it. Hear my warning don't just order 2 eggs and 2 toast the rest of the food is around 12 dollars a plate for menu items with that said I was charged 13 dollars for 2 eggs and 2 toast 18 dollars with tip. I can see why the place is empty. Sorry I won't be back. I left hungry and feeling cheated read more

I had an disgusting experience at Jenn's cafe this morning and will never go back. As I finished my omelet, I found two short, dark, wavy hairs that had been hidden by the food. To that point, my meal had been okay, though nothing spectacular. I started to get sick to my stomach and walked to the cashier so I could pay and get out before I threw up. When I informed the cashier of the problem, she apologized, but took no further action. I would have expected her to at least call a manager to address my concerns, but she just ran my card without further comment. I zeroed the tip, signed the credit slip, and got out. In many ways, I'm an ideal restaurant customer, I worked my way through college as a waiter, so I'm patient, rarely tip less than 20%, and even understand something like this can happen even in the best restaurants. The staff's disinterested failure to do anything about my revolting discovery is inexcusable. read more

Reasonably priced and good eats! side of chicken fried steak for 5 bucks smothered in gravy!!! service is a little slow but seriously, what else are you going to do? You are in OROVILLE!!!! read more

Our breakfast at Jenn's Cafe was so good that I was compelled to write my first yelp review. Our family of four (2 adults, 2 kids) each ordered a different variation of the "Traditional Breakfast." Mine was with the ribeye steak (hey, I ran 30 miles the next day, so it was warranted). I love ribeye and had low expectations. My son and I have Celiac disease and have to be really strict gluten-free. I also ordered mine with the home fries (essentially grilled potatoes with onion). Our order was complicated but came out spot-on. It wasn't super-fast, but, hey, real food takes time. Our server was friendly and patient with our dietary needs. Then, that ribeye... wow, almost as good as I could grill at home. My mouth is still watering thinking about that. And soooo affordable! Everyone else enjoyed their meals, too. Plates licked clean. Highly recommend. read more

So cute! Seriously cleanest place I've ever been in. I sat at the bar for breakfast and could not stop thinking about how clean the place was. So cute. I love the fresh flowers and colorful plates. Service was great, it seemed like everyone who worked there was paying attention to every customer. I can't remember the last time I had French toast that was that damn good. I'm also a koozie collector, so thanks for the camo addition read more

Stopped here on a Saturday drive - we timed it just right to get in at a quiet time. The food was just fine - bacon not so great. And the food took a bit of a time to get out - most likely because it was busy. read more

Great service from friendly servers. Awful food. Omelets burnt on the outside, ingredients burnt on the inside. Biscuits unremarkable, gravy kinda gross. I think the gravy was from a can. Yuck. read more

Great Ruben sandwich!! My boyfriend had an awesome Monte Cristo!! So delicious and great service!!

I came here for breakfast this morning, it was excellent! I can tell they use fresh quality ingredients, bacon is awesome and so are the hash browns. My dad had the sausage patties, they looked homemade. He said they were awesome! I can't wait to come back and try them!! Best breakfast in Oroville! Great customer service, waitress was very nice and attentive. read more

Great service & food was yummy! We ordered the chicken fried steak skillet & an omlette...huge portions, so recommend sharing. Waitress was very attentive & prices were decent. Would definitely go again if in the area. read more

Great customer service. Food is good. I had the tuna melt and was more than satisfied, portions are great. Must have the garlic fries!

Yelped Oroville on they way home from camping up North. This little cafe/diner was not only adorable, but the service was amazing. The food was excellent. There were 4 of us. I had ham and eggs with half a waffle, my husband had biscuits and gravy, my mom had a senior special, my daughter had toast cottage cheese and fruit. We all loved our meals. This is one of the reasons I use yelp when dinning in unfamiliar cities. I read the reviews & look at pics. I loved this little gem of a place. I highly recommend it. Bonus that offer vanilla flavored creamer for coffee. read more

Food is good but.....lord have mercy did it take forever to get served!!! I could have cooked three meals in the time it took to get our breakfast. Never again read more

I gave Jenn's a low rating for the environment. We went in at 1 pm and there was smoke all through the building from a outdoor smoker that was right near the window. We sat at a table that tilted and creaked so much that we moved. Just after our mediocre meal was served they started vacuuming the carpet right around our table and the noise was so loud we could hardly have a conversation. We left earlier than planed and at the cash register I was asked the classic "How was everything". When I pointed out the terrible ambience she just shrugged her shoulders and said "have a nice day." So go to Jenn's if you don't care because they certainly don't. read more

This place is amazing! I am visiting from Southern California and I decided to try this place out...I am very happy I did. The home fries are so good. The potions are big and everything is super yummy! The place was busy and the service was excellent! This is a place you have to try!! read more

Jenn's Place has great food generous portions and cooked to order very good place glad we found it.

Great breakfast! So happy my friends and I came here. I ordered a veggie omelet with home fries. It was delicious. Nice servers, good little diner! read more

I've been going to Jenn's for a few years now, not frequently but about every other month. I've never had a bad experience. It's a small hole in the wall place, which in my experience are usually the best. Even when crowded they've always seated me within minutes. The food is typical diner fare, maybe a tad better. Because the place is so small they're very attentive. Pretty quick on service based on how crowded they are. I've never ate outside but it's little more than a parking lot with tables; more of an overflow. I've withheld the extra star because of the outside seating. read more

Definetly had better, breakfast is always fairly good. Lunch by far not delicious. Jalapeño cheddar burger on ciabatta, definetly needs help. First thing I noticed was exterior of building falling apart, second notice on door about higher cost of business etc., third dirty windows lots of caked up holiday window paint around the edges. So let's get to the burger, ciabatta was crumbly so obviously not fresh, not toasted, cheese barely melted, cooked on flat top and tasted like it might have been steamed slightly so it had absorbed a lot of other flavors from flat top, absolutely so seasoning. Definetly not craving to return. read more

Best breakfast this side of the Mississippi. Lunch is great, too. All the gals up front are really sweet and the guys in the back always throw a wave. Runs like a beehive or a well oiled machine. It's fun waiting for your food and watching all the activity. Super clean! Maybe the cleanest restaurant I've been in. Recommend the biscuits and gravy and chicken fried steak. read more

Jenn's Cafe - Beautiful view this morning out of the best cafe in California. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oroville, California

Jenn's is a shining beacon of hope for the cuisine in Oroville. Everything we had was scrumptious and portions were huge, we definitely left fat and happy. Our server was actually Jenn, she was like a beautiful angel of brunch and was very genuine and friendly. When I went out back to use the restroom, I met her magic unicorn, Lafawnduh, that uses its magic to create a forcefield of happiness and joy around the place so that each and every customer feels loved and welcome. Jenn was very modest about her experiences in the magic realm, but we could see the light glow of heaven all around her as she gracefully balanced unbelievable amounts of food on her arms, it was truly supernatural. We tried to use some sleeping potion to knock out the staff and steal their magic elixirs, but alas, they held steadfast and did not waiver at our feeble attempts to overcome their wills. We retreat, beaten and humbled, back to our lair with only the vivid memory of our beautiful time at Jenn's with no other way to obtain this joy, but to return. Btw, there were REAL flowers on the table! Another example of Queen Jenn's loveliness and care for making you feel beautiful read more

Normally love this place. However today something was seriously wrong. The owner wasn't there so maybe that was it. The tables were half full and yet we waited over an hour and still hadn't gotten our food. We finally got up and walked out. Hope this isn't how it's going to be from now on. If this had been the first time I had gone there, I wouldn't go back read more

Comfy and cozy old-fashioned cafe with great, friendly service. And a wonderful, varied breakfast and lunch menu. Our breakfasts were way better than expected! I loved the bacon avocado scramble. The prices are also very reasonable! Because it is a small restaurant, it's easy to visit and get acquainted with your neighbors!! I certainly recommend Jenn's! read more

When Jenn of Jenn's Cafe waits on you it's a great sign. The chicken fried steak breakfast was her recommendation. Huge and tasty. Nice mix of locals, so that's a good sign. Excellent value too. read more
