Their flagship Jooce isn't bad but really 3 of 5 not any higher. The rest? Solid 2s at best. Better news, brisket is solid, fried pickles and curds are very good but burger? 2.5 stars. Not freshly ground, very little flavor and definitely not worth more than $10.

It's only about half a block off the main street in West Jefferson, so it's an easy walk if you're out shopping downtown. The vibe inside is really cool -- it feels like it might've been an old automotive shop at some point, but now it's got a warm, modern, laid-back atmosphere that totally works. Service was fast and friendly. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich, and it was honestly one of the best I've ever had: crispy edges, juicy inside, a great char, and real flame-grilled flavor. The onion rings were super crispy and delicious too. My daughter loved her mac and cheese. And the This Is Not The Muffler Shop IPA was a perfect, flavorful beer to round everything out. Highly recommend stopping here if you're in West Jefferson!

The ambiance is amazing: sit outside and you'll have the beautiful mountains as your scenery. Or you could sit inside their greenhouse! I spent like 2 hours here eating and reading. I had the Oldhouse Breakfast Burger, which was savory deliciousness and loaded with a runny sunny side up egg, bacon, onions, potatoes. I got the Tomato Soup as my side, which was also very tasty- I LOVED their croutons haha. I also had the Tiramisu Latte, which unfortunately I found way too sweet and was unable to finish. Service was fast and friendly. There's lots of free parking. 10/10 would recommend!

The staff was incredibly friendly and we were very happy to see them bring out a water bowl for our pup. Love to see business being dog friendly!!! The service was prompt and food was piping hot and fresh. Everything we tried was delicious. I had the trout (figured there was a lot of trout fishing around so it should be good) and we split the sweet potato bites. Didn't try any of the beers as it's not part of the current diet but we plan on coming back to do so.

My wife had the pot roast, which is excellent. I had the meatloaf, which hands-down is the best meatloaf I've ever had. It was not greasy, it was not slathered in ketchup. It had a great flavor, and there was even a little char around the edge of the meatloaf, which gave it added texture that is just phenomenal. Fun fact: there are two locations about a block away from each other. One is the restaurant where you can get all of their beers, and a full menu. That is where we went. The other one is the brau haus, which is basically mostly beer and some food, I.e. pizza.

We got take out on a Saturday night and noticed no one was there. We thought we made a mistake by ordering but the food was soo good. The fries were crispy and tasted amazing. The service was so wonderful. The lady with the bun was so so nice and sweet. The next time we came in had wings again and my boyfriend had the black jack burger. He loved the burger and ate it all!! I absolutely loved my wings ofc. We also ordered the flatbread as an appetizer and it was soo yummy. The waitress was also very sweet. I absolutely loved this place. It was so comfortable. It needs more customers!

Went to grab a quick lunch in downtown Jefferson at Black Jack's! I got the Black Jack Burger (beef…read morepatty, bun, pepper jack cheese, grilled pineapple, bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo) and Iced Tea. I have no notes, this was a classic burger: I loved the hint of spice from pepperjack, the sweet contrast from the pineapple, and the patty was perfectly cooked. The pub chips were well-seasoned and crispy. The iced tea had just the right amount of sugar, and was very refreshing. The ambiance is fine: a bit dim inside, but there's also outside seating. Service was friendly & fast. Parking is free in downtown Jefferson. 10/10 would recommend!

My chicken looked disgustingly similar to a piece of charcoal. Photo attached. I feel certain that the cook who prepared this dry, charred piece of meat would not eat it. I certainly did not.

She did not charge for it. My husband and I will not be returning to this establishment.
