Old school dining experience (like back in the 50's & 60's I think. I usually have breakfast there, but have also had lunch too. Hearty size meals and cooked just right. Not sure but i think it's a family run business and a Friendly one. Prices are average and food is freshly prepared. They close around 2pm so no dinner menu but you can have a steak for breakfast! See you there read more

Great old school diner spot at Clearlake! Portions are big, service was great. Good place for comfort food. It's a pretty decent menu serving standard diner fare. Service was great, they were hospitable with fast service. There's ample parking out front, but they only serve breakfast & lunch. I'd eat here again the next time I'm in town! read more

Judys is always the best breakfast in Lake County. In fact, I'm driving up there from the City of Clearlake tomorrow to eat there.

Judy's Junction looks like a classic diner and has that kind of vibe. It's spacious and comfortable. It seemed like there were a lot of regular, daily customers which was a good sign. Service was friendly and attentive. We were checked on throughout our meal. Six of us came here for lunch after a boat ride; and it's good that breakfast items were available along with lunch choices. We ordered very different foods: House Made Corned Beef Hash, Mushroom Swiss Burger, Sourdough Burger with American Cheese, Pork Chop, Diced Ham and Eggs and a bowl of Cream of Broccoli Soup. Food was delicious and portions were very generous. The burgers were fantastic. The pork chop was very well prepared and moist. The corn beef hash was tasty. The soup was a bit salty. Prices were reasonable for the amount and quality of food. This is definitely an excellent diner. read more

Classic roadside diner with friendly and attentive staff serving up delicious, hearty food. Dined on a recent Sunday morning (8:30A) as a party of three and the place was more than half full, with several family groups dining in. We didn't wait long after ordering for our dishes to come out. Our server was quite energetic and checked in often to top off our coffees, no doubt anticipating an impending breakfast rush. I quite enjoyed The Trucker and was pleasantly surprised by the big, fluffy biscuit slathered with country gravy, a breakfast favorite! I ended up taking most of the biscuit home with the sausages because I ate the eggs, bacon, and fruit there. My dining partners enjoyed their dishes as well, and if we're visiting in the area again, we would happily dine in again. read more

We stopped in for lunch today. I ordered a French Dip and my wife ordered the California Chicken Sandwich. We both had fries with our meals. The portions were definitely generous. A lot of beef on my sandwich for sure! The roll it was served on was kind of a variation of a Dutch Crunch. The fries were fresh, hot, and crispy! Service was good. Anything we asked for was served straightaway. The only thing that might have been nice would have been to have drink refills offered, other than that, everything was great. The decor is kind of old school diner, reminds me of the places my parents used to take me when I was a little kid. I enjoyed the mental stroll down memory lane. Prices are not cheap. But nothing in our state is anymore. It was close to $40 for two sandwiches and an iced tea. I won't hold it against 'em, I'm sure we'll be back. LOL read more

When you come to this place for the first time after reading the stellar reviews - is that on the outside it appears a little worn out. And even upon the entering you come into some place needing a little update. I ordered a patty melt - to me a patty melt is a great test of a diner. There's more to one than a patty on bread with onions. There's bread should be rye and toasted in butter. I could go on and on about how well this patty melt came out. It's was great! Fries were plentiful and tasty. Good quality stuff. My friend got the burger and onion rings and he was thoroughly happy with the little things like how they butter fried his bun. My conclusion is - don't worry about what place looks like. The service and the food are excellent. If I ever find myself passing here again I will visit. I look forward to their pancakes. Super happy!! read more

Amazing never had a bad meal here. Only once never y'all order take out Only go into the place. And someone need to let the owner know that they need to tell the one waitress she needs to work at Hooters if she wants to wear her Daisy Dukes to show what her mama gave her. That was disrespectful and Disgusting. Other than that food is absolutely delicious the cooks there are wonderful I wanted to tip them not our Hooters waitress. read more

Judy's junction has theee best southwest chicken salad! Along with their house made southwest dressing! I wanted something light and small so I opted for a salad. There was nothing small or light about this salad though! Super delish, has me craving it! It's hard to find a good, flavorful salad nowadays. read more

1st time and no greetings. Took a few to be seated and no one else waiting. Coffees and water to start off (pass on the water as am sure being a rural area the water was probably well). The place overall has comfortable atmosphere and the decor was nice. The food was decent. Pancakes and French Toast was prepared as requested. read more

This place doesn't look like much from the outside. But they prepare the food on the inside. Awesome cheeseburger. Fantastic patty melt. House cut fry's and house made onion rings. Great service and delicious food. I'd return here anytime. read more

Just as fantastic today as the day it was in 2019!! So many restaurants in the area had a decline in quality after the big shutdown for COVID. Not Judy's, my 2 pork chop breakfast was absolutely perfect and our coffee cup never ran dry, even on a busy Saturday morning! Hats off to the cooks & waitresses for all you do read more

Judy's Junction - 2 Pork Chop breakfast - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Upper Lake, California

I was going down the roadway and I spotted the joint as I passed it. Being hungry, I decided to turn around. The place looks a bit rundown from the outside and the interior wasn't updated a well. It has a country kitchen theme and it works for them. I saw that the corned beef hash as homemade, who's home I don't know, but I gave it a chance. What came was voluminous, so for those of you who love lots of food, this is your place. The dish was above average and if I'm ever in the area again, I'd probably order it again, but I wouldn't make a special trip for it. The place is good value and the bottom line is, it's a competent place for food that'll stick to your ribs. read more

Restaurants around here seem to be pretty limited to begin with, so it sort of helps and makes it easy to find the local hotspots that everyone in the area gets drawn to. Such is the case for Judy's Junction, which despite its appearance from the road, is simply a great place to get some food in your stomach. Friendly staff, delicious food.. what else do you really need? Standard American diner fare.. with quite the portion size. Don't think you can get this elsewhere nearby. read more

Good portions... Homestyle cooking... Not a chain place. Great breakfast from chicken fried steak to corn, beef, hash, and eggs. read more

Pretty good standard diner food. Huge portions. Busy Sunday so I waited almost 45 minutes for corned beef hash, but it was good. Toast was cold with cold butter...it's a pet peeve of mine. If you are serving toast, make it hot and butter it right. Not just the blob butter in the center of cold bread. Best solution I ever saw was melted butter and a brush...perfect toast every time. Otherwise service was ok. read more

Great portions of tasty American Comfort food. Friendly and attentive wait staff in a rural diner atmosphere. You can sit at the counter or one of the many tables they have in three areas and eat your breakfast or lunch. I recommend their home made corn beef breakfast. It was truly delicious and a rare find nowadays. I had mine with eggs over easy that were actually cooked to order and rye toast. read more

Amazing food and service! This is an old timey spot with good vibes and the absolute best breakfast food around the Lake. Very affordable as well. It doesn't get better than Judy's Junction! 100% recommend! read more

Judy's Junction - The trucker & The Jackpot - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Upper Lake, California

The food was great for a Trucker type breakfast. In fact, that is what we ordered--I believe it was called Trucker's Breakfast. My partner wanted biscuits and gravey, and this breakfast also included 2 eggs, bacon, sausage, and hashbrowns. We split it, and we almost had to roll out of there. It was also a great deal!!! We sat outside--which was delightful on a Saturday morning. It took a while to place the order but the real problem was actually getting our food. It took over an hour after ordering to get the food. That is why I gave them 4 stars read more

Delicious fresh, diner/home-style meals. My husband really enjoyed the Ruben. The side of potato salad was one of the best I've had in a restaurant. I had a chicken sandwich that was tasty too. The side salad was huge, pretty basic but the dressing was delicious and obviously made from scratch. Great stop for a bite. read more

I can't say enough about Judy's Junction's food and service. This place has a definite diner atmosphere but is clean and that's all that really matters to me on ambiance. What is fantastic is the wait staff, they are always pleasant even when the place is packed! Service is fast! Food so far has been exceptional and generous! My favorite so far has been the corned beef hash, all house made! I am a big eater and I have yet been able to finish it in one meal! Its also great reheated, its also great on the in house made country potatoes! read more

Great food and great service would highly recommend eating here. Everyone is very friendly

AMAZING RUEBEN!!!! It's perfect! Thank you Madison for recommending this over the other things I wanted to eat. The corned beef is the best ever, the marbled rye is toasted perfectly, and the ratios for all the ingredients were perfect! Try it here and thank me (or Madison) later! read more

Judy's Junction - EPIC RUEBEN!!!! PERFECT - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Upper Lake, California

The good: I ordered country potatoes and added spinach, tomatoes and avocado. I appreciate that they were willing to customize my order and the potatoes were cooked well. I enjoyed the potatoes very much. B+ The bad: But the side of french toast was extremely disappointing. First, 1 slice of french toast costs almost $4. Second, they did not soak the bread, they simply dipped one side and it tasted and looked like they cracked an egg and fried it on the bread. At first I tried to drown it in syrup but then I had to peel the eggy layer off and in order to make it edible. I would've just tossed it had I not paid almost $4 for one piece of bread. D Service was okay, nothing worth mentioning and the water tasted odd and dirty. Additionally where we sat smelled like dirty mopping water. read more
