Good for a breakfast place. It was not too crowded, food was good and wait staff was friendly and helpful.

Report a Ripoff New quiet Junk Fees J Christopher's Restaurant 1438 Dresden Dr Brookhaven, Ga 404-467-0110 brookhaven@jchristophers.com They are now charging without any fanfare a " supplemental fee" to all transactions. I just noticed it on my bill and it is a percent % of the total cost. The waitress said there is a "little paper sign on the entrance door about it" It says: "We apply a supplemental fee to all transactions . Please know, this is not considered revenue. It helps offset the rising food industry fees." They have also raised the cost of the meals?? read more

I can't say enough good things about this place! The savory grits pie is absolutely incredible--similar to quichcomforting, flavorful, and unlike anything I've ever tasted. It's one of those dishes you think about for days afterward. On top of that, the service was fantastic. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome from the moment we walked in. A truly wonderful experience all around! read more

Great clean modern place in a great location. The service was great as well. Flew into PDK airport and the ladies at Aero Center said they always recommend this place. I had the Huevos Avocado. It's an English muffin topped with sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, melted mixed cheese and poached egg (had mine scrambled). Served with black beans and breakfast potatoes. Highly recommend this place!! read more

J. Christopher's - Huevos Avocado, it was great!!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

So this is a standard breakfast spot. Decent food for breakfast and lunch. The one in Brookhaven is in a string of bars, shops, and restaurants, so it's a great area to walk around too. I had a friendly experience, the service was fast, the food was good. It was not anything overly dazzling, but it was solid if all you needed was a breakfast or a brunch spot that you wouldnt have to worry about hookah or trap music (not everyone is into that in Atlanta I guess lol). Think diner food when you come here. The bacon was good, the pancakes are huge, the bowl (with a biscuit) is okay in size but pretty filling. Its not knock your socks off breakfast and brunch but it will definitely get th job done. read more

It's sort of an upscale breakfast diner. Everyone is extremely friendly and get you seated right away. The staff is excellent. The food is good, the maple toast was delicious. The coffee is pretty good. The potatoes are all right and the scrambled eggs are good. I got the turkey bacon so it was as expected. fairly clean inside. Tons of parking in the area located in a really nice place. Prices are obviously very decent. They have a huge menu selection including breakfast pancakes, eggs, toast, grits among other things. They also have a decent lunch selection. I do recommend coming here. Fast excellent service. Foods not bad to and it definitely hits the spot when you're hungry. Lots of coffee selections as well. They also have like a diner seating area in the front, bar style. There's also outdoor seating. read more

I can't speak on the service or ambience as my order was through Uber Eats but I can say the food was AMAZING!

Came to J. Christopher's for the first time in well over a year. This was one of my favorite after-mass breakfast places, and I'd come to the location once or twice a month. Free parking in the lot behind the restaurant was easy to find. R and I entered through the back door. There was a host station just inside, and no one was staffing it, so we kept walking toward the paining dining area. A server saw us and told us that we could sit anywhere that didn't have a blue X made with tape on the table. We looked around, and the tables without Xs on them allowed for acceptable social distancing. We chose a table and sat down. While waiting for our server, I didn't really notice any big changes in the restaurant, other than most of the servers were different than the regulars who used to work here. The employees wore face masks, and face masks are required for customers. Paintings, most of them colorful and some of them in black in white, took up much of the wall space. All of the tables were stripped down - no spices, no napkins, no condiments ... nothing. There are tables outside in the side patio that is shaded by the building. Our server came by with eating utensils wrapped in a cloth napkin, and two menus. She took our drink order. While she was gone, I noticed that they had St Patrick's Week Specials still going on, so I checked them out and noticed they had a Reuben sandwich as one of the specials. Our server returned with our drinks and took our orders. I ordered the Reuben sandwich special with oven-roasted potatoes. R ordered the spinach and bacon skillet which included two sunny side up eggs. After about 10 minutes, our food was served. Just like the service, the food was just ok. My Reuben sandwich was soggy on the bottom, and there wasn't very much meat in it - maybe three slices of corned beef, if that, that was cooked on the grill before being put in the sandwich with sauerkraut and everything else. I don't suggest getting this sandwich. The oven-roasted potatoes looked great, but were dry and a little crunchy. Meh. R said his food was good. When we were done eating, we wanted the check, but the server wasn't around. We had to wait another five minutes before we saw here, and R flagged her down. When we were leaving, there was no acknowledgement from any of the employees, so this was consistent with us not being acknowledged when we entered. Overall, the mid to high energy and excellent customer service that this location had pre-pandemic fell to low energy level and not so good customer focus. read more

J. Christopher's is a wonderful brunch spot. They have locations all around town and the food is amazing. The only downfall is they don't serve up alcohol to go with their delicious brunch food. So, two of my friends work at this location and one of them brought quesadillas to one of our hang outs. I had no clue they had quesadillas and had no clue their quesadillas were amazing! Seriously, they were the best I've had, besting out the old style quesadillas they used to serve up at Chili's (before they changed their recipe and the quesadillas went downhill). The tortilla is nicely grilled and crispy, and there is the perfect amount of cheese & chicken. Plus, the beans! Oh my, very tasty. I decided to order take out last week from here and get the chicken quesadillas. The place is in a quaint spot in Brookhaven, nestled in off the sidewalk. You can find a ton of parking behind the building or opt for street parking. The place is very small but nice. I'd say they have about 10-12 booths and 6-8 tables. Very open. They were following social distancing protocol with spacing out guests and wearing gloves & masks. This spot is perfect if you have any safety concerns. I got my quesadillas home and they were better than the previous time. Highly recommend you try out the quesadillas! read more

Great food! Fast service! I went not to order Togo and was assisted by Angelica. I came on a Sunday morning around 10:30 & it wasn't overly packed. I ordered the French toast (old maple) and eggs with sausage. It was a breakfast special. Angelica was very kind and answered all of my questions! I will be back. read more

Just had terrific breakfast at J Christophers. We try to make it there 3-4 times each month. Food is always spot on. Their service is wonderful. From full on breakfast to lighter fare....it's all good! Don't forget: they close at 2. Usually plenty of parking around back. And, enter from that parking lot. (Hostess on duty on the weekends) Enjoy......... Cheers! read more

The breakfast was dry and super mid, which I'm super surprised because there was a lot families inside. IHOP is better than this spot just saying. But if you'd rather guys are trying to keep a family mom and pop open kudos to you. The guy who served me was definitely high off something, couldn't sit still. read more

Very good brunch here. We enjoyed the sausage skillet, big breakfast, turkey sandwich, and salad. All tasty and delicious. Good and friendly service too. We'll be back again someday. read more

I came here for some brunch after church on a Sunday and left the place more than satisfied. When I walked in I was greeted with happy faces, despite the fact that it was Christmas Eve and all he stresses that come with the holiday season, and I goes to sit at the "bar." The menu has great options that cover all the go to breakfast items and variations. I chose to order the steak and eggs with breakfast potatoes and a chocolate chip pancake. I also ordered a chai tea latte. The employees work efficiently and take the time to check in and have the right amount of small talk! The latte was so good, and he steak and eggs were cooked to perfection! The prices were extremely reasonable. I will be back. There is 2 hour street parking and other cute shops to browse after eating. read more

Why wasn't my biscuit hot? Like, that really bothers me when I get a room temperature biscuit and cold butter. What am I supposed to do with that? The rest of the meal was good and thankfully the offer a good cup of coffee. I. Really hoping it was an off day for them because I really would like to give them another try. Covid protocols were being practiced and they have parking g in the rear of the building as well as metered parking out front. read more

J. Christopher's - Scrambled eggs w/cheese, pork sausage and biscuit - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I think I was expecting this grand place because my mom and sister spoke so highly of it, but honestly it is a regular breakfast place to me with good food! Our server was kind, quick and attentive! They did not have what i initially wanted to eat which were the crab cakes, so i ordered the Billy Goat Omelette instead. Now, the omelette was actually quite good - the combination of goat cheese with the sundried tomatoes was perfect! Im giving 4 stars because a few of the tomatoes in my omelette were oddly hard and the cheese grits lacked in taste. I definitely plan to visit again! :) read more

The food was very poor. I order the spinach and bacon skillet however I was given a mass amount of roasted tomatoes 2 crumps of bacon and 2 pieces of spinach. When asked if I could have this issue fixed I was told there was nothing they could do. I used to come here a lot but never again. I work too hard to just let you guys waste my money!!!!! read more

I am giving five stars because the service was exceptional. I didn't catch the name of my waiter but he was so nice and attentive. He even asked if I wanted a refill on my drink to go and held the door for me on my way out. This is a breakfast/brunch spot but I ended up ordering the chicken quesadilla and it was pretty good. I will definitely come back to try the breakfast items. read more

Food was what you would expect at a classic american diner but with some items that had a twist. My dad had an omelette with goat cheese that he adored and my eggs benedict had a nice tex mex twist to it! The only thing I have to note is that they were pretty slow moving when we first walked into the door and required assistance finding a table and again when we were getting ready to order. Other than that the food was good, typical looking diner space, and great prices! read more

My in laws like to come here when they visit. Been to J Christopher's twice and it's a good consistent experience.

Tucked away on the backside of a building, is this hidden gem. Yes, there are other locations around Atlanta and I think I have been before but I dont recall; Okay, I eat out alot. It was early one Sunday morning, and I was trying to get breakfast on the table. There was plenty of time to eat, but the wait to eat was about 15 minutes. The sundried tomato bacon egg dish I had was something to go back and have again. Plus, it had blue cheese crumbles. I also ordered a pancake with blueberries but barely got through half of it. I had to make a decision on what to eat as it was so much food but I decided on the sundried tomato bacon egg dish. There was only room for one and this was the best choice. I've been wanting again ever since. Now I have another reason to stop in Brookhaven thanks to JC's. read more

Great go-to when you want a quick hearty or healthy breakfast and you need to get food before the 12p brunch rush begins. The atmosphere is your standard breakfast cafe. Family-friendly and coffee in the lobby for those waiting for a table. There is often a wait as most restaurants in the area don't open til closer to lunch because of alcohol sale times. However, you can get on the waitlist from your phone and I would highly recommend! Food is consistent and fresh. I haven't had any bad experiences. Service can be hit or miss when there is a crowd. Be sure to request any extra things like Jelly etc. that you need upfront. I would also recommend telling your server if you are in a rush so they can bring you the check when your food comes out. read more

This bright, casual spot serves up a satisfying brunch for all ages and taste buds. I'm a sucker for breakfast / brunch spots & I consider J. Christopher's a good, solid place - nothing spectacular but always satisfying. The local chain is busy every time I go, but tables turn pretty swiftly. It's especially popular on weekends, attracting lots of families with children and young adults. I usually dine with adults but when I came with my niece & nephew, I realized why it's such a family friendly spot. They're very accommodating to kids, providing coloring pages, crayons, kids seating & a kids menu. And the price point doesn't break the bank. On most visits, I get an omelette ($7.79) or an eggs Benedict ($8.99) and I'm a happy girl. I LOVE their blueberry crunchcakes so I'll often sub the English muffin for a crunchcake (+$1.50). My niece and nephew got the strawberry crepes ($6.79) and loved them. What's not to love about strawberries, whipped cream & syrup?! The pantry feast ($9.59) is another fave on days when I'm super hungry, indecisive or just hungover!! It's SO much food & you get a little bit of everything. Actually all dishes are very generous serving sizes. Other items I like include the yogurt parfait ($5.49) and the cinnamon roll. And I like the section for diet-conscious diners - egg white omelettes, fresh fruit, turkey bacon, etc... The coffee is pretty good. I haven't tried their hot chocolate or lattes, but they always tempt me. My least favorite item is their grits - even with cheese & added salt/pepper, they're very bland. I'd go with breakfast potatoes instead of grits. I've had a few lunch items (soups, salads, etc...) but I think they do a better job with breakfast. The good thing is that no matter what time I'm here, I can always get breakfast :) read more

After several attempts since this location opened, we will not be back. This location just really isn't up to par with the others. The service has never been great, and the omelletes are terrible. I ordered the San Bernardino omelette last weekend at the Sandy Springs location; it was giant and full of ingredients. I ordered it here and it was probably the most pathetic omelette I have ever eaten- it was not even 1/4 the size of the one last week. This is not an isolated incident however, as each time we have visited the food is disappointing. We will just drive the extra 15-20 mins to the Sandy Springs location, where we are never disappointed. read more

Today the service wasn't great. I was seated outside since I had my dog with me, but I was just kind of forgotten about out there. The food was mixed. The chorizo scramble was good, but the side of potatoes was under cooked and portions were raw. The coffee tasted funny today also. Normally it's fine, but it was as if there was still soap left in the coffee pot or my mug or something. They also apparently changed their military discount policy from every day to only the 11th of each month. Not a big deal, but it will affect my decision to how often I eat there. read more

I totally dig this colorful breakfast joint. Brookhaven is one of my favorite neighborhoods in the ATL area and we stopped in to try their menu for lunch. I ordered one of their skillets. While I'm not a fan of these at most restaurants, I was pleasantly surprised at my entree choice that day. My spinach and bacon skillet had 2 sunnyside eggs with cubed potatoes, sun-dried potatoes, bacon, blue cheese and spinach. YUM! My boyfriend choose to keep it healthy with the Goddess omelet. The omelet was made with egg whites, diced tomatoes, spinach and feta cheese. The colored coffee mugs were a nice touch. The restaurant itself is colorful, bright and has a great positive atmosphere. I'm sure we'll be returning there soon! read more

The food and service here is awesome. I come here often for breakfast and the food is consistently good and the service is top notch.

It'd been quite awhile since I'd visited any J. Christopher's to eat (last year was mostly to buy a gift certificate) until today. I'm bunking at my parents due to my apartment building having a tree in it, and this was convenient for both J and me before work. We went for something unusual for us - one of their "skillets" - hash brown type potatoes with toppings - we went for the ham and mushroom, which on the menu says has a dash of red onion (cool) but doesn't mention the peppers (red, ok, but green, eep!! I despise them) and cheese. Somehow I didn't get a single bit that had green onion, so all was copacetic and the dish was actually really good. We got toast on the side which was a thicker white bread than at, say, WaHo, and yummy. Good coffee. Nice staff. I don't know how long I'll be up Brookhaven way, but I will happily go back. read more

The Blueberry Crunch Pancake - simple but soooo good J Christopher's is a chain restaurant ...decent, clean and pretty good eats..it's primarily breakfast-brunchy fare - so it's kinda standard, but the coffee is hot, and the staff at this location are attentive and hospitable - hats off to Josh - he's a consistently good server. My favorite thing here is the Blueberry Crunch Pancake..it has crunchy granola and blueberries in the batter...topped with butter and a little syrup...a side of bacon of course and I'm in breakfast heaven. I do recommend these light and fluffy little gems... read more

This place wasn't bad. I got a skillet with turkey and avocado, and it was quite yum. I came here after the gym so it was "healthy" enough :) Our waiter looked and sounded like Seth Rogen, and I think I pissed him off pretty badly when I told him that. He came back and apologized for acting so rude after I'd told him that and gave us a friendly farewell :) read more

It was a pretty decent breakfast place. I wouldn't say it was the best I've had but it's on par with most places I've been. Honestly speaking it's breakfast. As long as you don't screw it up, I'll take it. One thing they don't do well is the omelette though. It's thin and pretty generic looking. So when I saw a Yelp picture I got the skillet instead. It was much more appetizing. It comes with a biscuit but can be upgraded to a pancake for $1.50 more. I got the pancake. It's just a plain 'ol pancake. Bargain wise Original House of Pancake beats them but J. C's isn't bad either. No one beats Flying Biscuits pancakes though. The server was friendly and on top of things. She checked on us repeatedly. The inside design aims for a 60-80s flashback with a modern twist. It works well. The music was kind of loud though unnecessarily. Overall, it's a solid breakfast place. read more
