    Slam This Breakfast
    Terral A.

    Great food. Great service. Kind of a hole in the wall in Jackson. Parked in the back and entered through the kitchen. I would definitely recommend this place if you are in Jackson.

    Biscuits and gravy with a side of scrambled eggs.

    I've just discovered this staple in Jackson... shows we take for granted what's in our back yard!! My son told me this was a great place for breakfast and he is correct! Wow, the biscuits and gravy are phenomenal! They are the best that I've had anywhere! It reminds me of my Southern Home!! I don't even have to add pepper to them. I'll try something else eventually but for now this is my favorite, especially when feeling homesick. The service is top notch and so choreographed. It's amazing watching how the orders go in and everyone works around each other to keep this busy spot going. Ambience... reminds me of going to diners when I was little. Busy people, yummy smells, friendly staff, cleaning constantly, yet informal and down to earth. It's a wonderful place to dine with friends or alone!

    Key West Omellette -shrimp, fish, peppers delicious sauce and of course eggs - may not be available all of the time as it was a special

    OMG. Best breakfast place I've been to in Jackson. Large variety cooked fresh. Go early or wait in line. Don't worry it's worth the wait

    If nostalgia had a flavor, this café serves it sunny-side up. The moment you walk in, you're greeted with vintage charm, the smell of fresh coffee, and a staff so friendly they could probably make burnt toast feel special. The pancakes? Fluffier than a 1950s poodle skirt. The bacon? Crisp perfection. And the coffee keeps coming like it's trying to win your heart -- and honestly, it might. If you're looking for the kind of breakfast that makes you forget your phone and just smile at your plate, this retro gem is it.

    Sirloin and eggs & potatoes

    This place is a classic-there are so many like this little gem hidden across America-- if you're willing to try. So much better than any chain restaurant- higher quality of food, staff and experience. Everything is made from scratch and everything tastes great-he had the steak and eggs while I had the eggs over easy and delicious sausage. Food comes fast and our service was exemplary. Our waitress told us all the staff have all been there a long time and said, " they treat us right." I like that a lot.

    Brunch at Roxy: cheesesteak hoagie, biscuits and gravy with hashbrowns. Coffee, kept topped up.

    We ate here at the Roxy Café while checking out cars to buy in Jackson. I had passed the Roxy several times, but never stopped in, always curious and attracted by their retro sign. We parked in back and entered through the door that said entrance which led us through the whole kitchen past the cooks and dishwashers into the dining room. Two waitresses said hello when we entered, and we sat down quickly. After our order was taken from the menu under the glass table top, our coffees were filled steadily, and all our selections were good. Summoning up, the Roxy was everything I hoped it would be, and I definitely will go again anytime I get the chance!

    Great moms and pops local diner. Hospitality was above and beyond. Great smiles and a great atmosphere. Food was great for the diner experience. Ordered BLT and some eggs. Good enough to enjoy and enough to make you come back again. I would rate it a solid 4.3 for everything.

    Roxy Cafe is one of the few places that get a five star breakfast for me. The biggest problem is the cramped space.

    Visiting Jackson for the day, my boyfriend and I were looking for a good diner to eat at early…read moremorning. My fiancé LOVES a good pancake, so we took a chance at Max's House of Pancakes. The restaurant is conveniently placed right next to a free 2-hour parking lot that had plenty of spaces open at 8:45am. We were promptly seated after walking in and greeted by our server. She brought us soda and coffee and then took our orders. My fiancé asked for a side of bacon to be on the rare side (flopping), but was told that the chef precooks some items, so he probably wouldn't be willing to make a fresh to order side of bacon. Our food came out really quickly, the side of French toast i ordered was delicious and a much larger size than i anticipated. My fiancé, who claims to be a "pancake connoisseur" said his Chocolate chip pancakes were amazing. The bacon fell short of expectations, but overall the meal was excellent. The prices on the menu aren't insane compared to the size and quality of most of the food items. I think a few tweaks to the aesthetics of the restaurant, and more flexibility by the chef would go a long way. Definitely come in if you're hungry, and looking to avoid breaking the bank for a great brunch.

    I decided to stop by here in way back home to Chicago and this place left we wanting to drive home…read morefaster. The chicken and waffles appeared as if they had asked a 6 yr old to draw for them what he imagines chicken and waffles should look like. It was literally 3 chicken nuggets sitting on a waffle. The coffee tasted as if it had been wrung out of a sock from the cheapest bean known to man. It tasted like someone went to Colombia and asked them what was the bean they hated the most and then bought it by the pound and brought back to Michigan. The hash browns were not well prepared. The cook obviously never met a seasoning he liked as these potatoes tasted as they were the kind used for boiling and served to prisoners in Dublin circa. the 18th century. I will not be returning to this place and others should beware.

    Small spot. Thankfully we had part of our party there with a table…read more We ordered a Coney Island hotdog, NY hotdog, eggs and hash brown and toast, rooster omelet, turkey Rueben and small baby Greek salad and some coffees. The NY dog tasted better than the Coney dog. The coney didn't taste the way it was expected, but it had a lot of ground meat on it. The egg, hash brown and toast was as expected. The rooster omelet wasn't too bad. The turkey Rueben was okay, would have been better with kraut instead of creamy slaw. The Greek salad was so-so, nothing so special about it. The onion rings were good at least. The woman at the checkout gave me such a hard time for asking for a copy of the credit card receipt, she asked why the itemized isn't good enough. She told me if I want the credit card receipt, she's taking the itemized bill. I said I would still like a copy of both the itemized as well as the credit card receipt. She placed both back on the counter top with a bit too much drama. How lazy, rude, totally unprofessional and unpleasant was the checkout staff member. The table service and food was a 3. The checkout service was a big fat zero! The experience was ruined by one person here.
