We've been to this place multiple times with no issues and the food is good. We decided to go for brunch this Saturday and there was a hair in my breakfast skillet. The guy I flagged down was so apologetic and said he was grabbing our waitress. She comes over and is beyond annoyed. She takes my skillet and doesn't even apologize...she asks me if I want another one and when I said no, just walks away and returns with the check for my daughter's plate. Awful experience and the worst attitude I've experienced. Won't go back again. read more

Service is good but the food is awful. Nothing is fresh and everything is either greasy or under seasoned. The potatoes tasted like dirt and they had clearly been frozen for a long time. read more

I know people don't like long reviews but I have to say something about this does Covid make people stupid because that does not go to see anybody's service ethics the food here sucks the waffle was good the service is mediocre and the cook does not know what he is doing my review is that if you are hungry you better go eat somewhere else read more

I used to like this place when it first opened but not anymore. The food has really gone done hill and the service feels like they took people off the street who have never served before. I have gone back several times hoping that it will get better but it always disappoints. Last week I was there with a friend. The waitress kept complaining about the restaurant every time she would forget to do something for us, saying there is only 2 servers. My food was completely cold and when she took my food back to fix it, it came back microwaved. This place used to be full a lot, but not anymore. I have a feeling that people are not going for the same reasons that I now give them 2 stars. read more

Literally arrived as the first guests on Saturday morning, ordered our food, and everything but the gravy was cold. Not like warm, cold. Sausage, English muffin, potatoes, all cold, and the coffee was Luke warm. Open at 7:00 and we sat down at 7:08. No excuse for cold food and coffee when you first open up with only 3 tables seated read more

I am so glad to add this review to the others which seem to be negative. My wife and I stopped in for breakfast today and our experience could not have been better. The service was superb! All the waitresses were helping each other out and hustling hard. My wife loved her patty melt and I just had a bagel but they toasted it exactly as I requested. Believe it or not, that's rare. I want to especially single out the two Hayley's. Our waitress and the hostess up front were so nice and efficient. I recommend them for raises! read more

My first time here and there was a wait of 15 to 20 minutes. Me my wife and son. We finally got seated and our first waitress was very nice. And very apologetic about how long we waited on our food. They forgot my son hold order and my grits and he s sausage. When me and my son food finally came out we had a different waitress and she was very rude. My food was cold and my wife grits was very lumpy. Sorry to say we want be back. read more

Have been here numerous times. Food made to order and has always been great. Service is great, wait staff friendly. Great atmosphere. Would recommend for breakfast or brunch. read more

Solid breakfast spot! Never dissapoints. Always fills the craving. Corn beef hash is on point. Eggs Beny is my go to with extra Hollondaise sauce on the side and they do not disappoint. Only open for breakfast and lunch and no más. read more

The food is great. The service is not great because they were short staff but our waitress was quite good. Large facility which is capable for seating manny people. I believe the food over comes any problems with lack of staff. read more

I have wanted to go here for the last year and I finally went here this last weekend. I was extremely disappointed. I went early in the morning so there was no wait. The waitress was very friendly. I have never been to a place the serves omelets with 2 eggs. The potatoes tasted freezer burned. The toast was charred and did not have butter nor was I provided butter. Corn beef hash was from a can even though I was told it was homemade. Pancakes tasted weird cant put my finger on what was wrong with them. Orange juice I think was fresh squeezed but tasted like plastic. Never have a I seen a kids breakfast meal that was $7 for 1 egg 1 piece of bacon and 1 pancake with juice. I read the history of this place and naturally assumed it was going to have good food since they have been in business for so long. I was really disappointed with the quality of food and how unrealistic the prices are. Sad that they use low end ingredients and charge so much. Some people are just there to make a buck and you can definitely tell this place is one of them. Would love to know their secret to staying in business so long. read more

We read the reviews on our way to the restaurant and still decided to give them a chance. It was our first time and we should've listened to the reviews. We waited 40 minutes for our food and found out the kitchen bumped our order. The people next to us got up and left after 15 minutes of not being waited on. We also left without any food after a 40 minutes wasted. Never again. read more

Two meals out of 3 were fine. My DIL ordered a salad. The lettuce was brown and limp. She had to pick through it to find a decent bite. I pointed out the problem to the waitress. She immediately took it back to the kitchen and removed it from our check. read more

Food was cold and bacon was too hard to eat. We keep trying but this was just terrible.

Met for breakfast for the new book club that I started! Absolutely loved it, first time there per the recommendation of one of the other members. The food was absolutely delicious. 2 of us got the Pork Belly Benny, 2 got the huevo avocado, and one child's chocolate chip pancake was ordered and not a single bite was left of anything. The pancake had a whipped cream smiley face, which was a nice touch. A very quiet but not stuffy environment, lots of families, and a great location. They set out a coffee pot for the table, which is a nice touch. Luke took really great care of us! read more

J. Christopher's - Pork Belly Benny with roasted potatoes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dacula, Georgia

Pretty tasty breakfast place, which is good because it's the only one in the area! I've been here a few times and I'm rarely disappointed. I've gotten a variety of items off the menu and I have loved them all! One thing I will say is that the coffee is not great. If you're a coffee snob or even if you've ever had a good cup of coffee in your life, skip this one. Opt for the hot chocolate! No mimosas here unfortunately. read more

I used to love this breakfast spot, but the experience I had at my last visit was beyond disappointing. The seating area was sticky & not well cleaned. The staff was friendly but very young and not overly attentive. The order was wrong, bacon was burnt and the lettuce was black on the tips. I couldn't force myself to finish eating. The menu has a great variety, I hate to see this business crumble; I'd love to see them turn things around and return to former glory. In the meantime, I'm sure I won't be back. read more

The moment I walked through the doors I was in love with this place. Bright, welcoming, open and staffed with friendly people who didn't hesitate to welcome me in. The walls are nicely decorated with large and interesting art pieces and the menu is uncluttered and easy to read. Since my first visit about 2 weeks ago, I've been back three more times. I've had something different every time and I can say without a doubt this is now my favorite breakfast/brunch spot anywhere in the metro. I like a simple menu with great tasting food at reasonable prices and that is what you get here. Sure there are a lot of great places throughout metro Atlanta with chef inspired creations that would put the menu & food presentation here to shame. But for the price, I don't think you can beat J Christopher's deliciousness! ---------- THE FOOD * EGG CHRISTOPHER (5+ Stars) | $10.29 Not your usual Egg Benny. This version uses a bed of roasted turkey, crispy bacon, a slice of red tomato and served with oven roasted potatoes. The hollandaise is perfect and so are the poached eggs and fluffy English muffin. So perfect is this combination in fact that I am truly going to have trouble ordering anything else on the menu... ever! I could be happy eating this every time I visit! * EGGS BENEDICT (5+ Stars) | $9.99 It just doesn't get any better for under $10. I have no doubts I will flip flop between this and the Eggs Christopher when my breakfast hunger cravings come calling. * MALIBU CHICKEN (5 Stars) | $9.59 Can I confess something? I love The Sizzler restaurant chain. It was a family favorite growing up and on their menu was a dish called Malibu Chicken. It is one of those dishes that takes me back to my childhood with warm and fuzzy feelings of favorite memories from my youth. So when I saw the name of this dish, the little boy inside me crossed his fingers, closed his eyes and said "oh please, please, please taste like the Malibu chicken I loved @ Sizzler." Well, IT DID! I could have cried at first bite. I know this will likely not be anyone else's quirky reaction other than my own, but I just wanted to make note that the flavor of this meal is pleasing to me beyond description. I enjoyed it so much I didn't want to finish it (if that makes sense). * BYO BURGER (4 stars) | $7.99 + .79 for cheese My kids order this burger and I must say it surprised me. It was far tastier that I expected considering it was just a simple cheeseburger. * PATTY MELT (5 Stars) | $9.59 This is my favorite type of burger. It is basically a burger sandwiched in between a grilled cheese with lots of grilled onions. Traditionalists like me prefer Jewish rye bread to marble rye, but I was still extremely pleased. I usually only want mustard as a topping on my patty melts, however, thousand island dressing is also a classic (which is what they top the melt with here). I can't imagine any burger lover not enjoying J Christopher's patty melt. It's delicious and well-seasoned! * GLUTEN FREE MAPLE TOAST (4 Stars) | $7.49 Wife loved it and I was happy they have gluten free bread to replace any bread on their menu so that she can feel free to order more things. * TURKEY SKILLET (4 Stars) | $9.79 My wife ordered this on a day just the two of us met here for lunch. She really enjoyed it but commented that she wishes the turkey and other ingredients had been scrambled into the eggs instead of the egg just being laid on top of the turkey meat. ---------- FINAL THOUGHTS I almost never try anything new at a restaurant once I have fallen in love with something on the menu. I feel totally proud of myself that I've tried AND love several items on this menu. Between the Eggs Christopher, Eggs Benny, Patty Melt and Malibu Chicken, I am 100% satisfied. So satisfied in fact that I may never order anything other than these four items all the rest of my days read more

I found this place hidden away from the public's eye but it's truly a hidden gem. My boyfriend and I go here all the time when we want a real breakfast and not some lame Waffle House/ IHOP. The atmosphere is very relaxing. It's super cute. The service is always friendly, always kind. They're just so chill! The food is soooooo good. I always try their seasonal specials. Aside from that, I typically order off of the skillets menu. The food looks like they're small portions but they some how seem to fill me up. And honestly I'm not a huge coffee in the morning is a must kind of person but for J. Christophers I am, though it is extra ~ read more

J. Christopher's - Whip Cream on the Beard - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dacula, Georgia

If you want to get ripped off, this is the place to go. I have repeatedly gone to the restaurant as well as ordered delivery and almost every time there's been something wrong, missing, or paltry. Regardless of how I ordered it there would be an issue - Potatoes tasting like gum, fried egg never arriving over easy, missing items, and they seem to think two tablespoons of gravy is enough on their biscuit plate. And for some reason they have a repeated issue with adding cheese to grits. It's ridiculous. Bojangles will give you a better breakfast value than this. read more

Went today after church with a friend and my 88 year old mom. Other than having difficulty finding it and a parking space....the food was awesome and the service was excellent. We will be back! read more

The waitress was pleasant and the service was quick however I ordered the Eggs Christopher and the eggs on top of that came on top were cold as if the eggs were poached hours before. The muffins were hot, but bacon seemed to be room temperature. I've had the dish before and it was so much better, however, this go around the dish was subpar to say the most. You should expect get hot food when you order breakfast at an establishment know for it's breakfast dishes! read more

The food here is absolutely delicious!!! My pancakes kinda crumbled by they were still tastey. Our waitress was very attentive as always. read more

We thought we try J Christopher's today. Friday is our go out to breakfast day seeing how we both are home. The service was the best thing and it was spotty at best. My wife had the avocado skillet the only thing hot and fresh was the egg. The skillet was barley warm and the melted cheese already cool, the potatoes have been sitting in a warming tray for a while because half of them were too hard to eat. The English muffin was toasted at some point but was as cold as the butter we had to ask for. I had the pantry feast the only hot part of the meal was the chocolate chip pancakes. The potatoes, bacon and eggs were obviously pre-made and sitting in warming trays. The potatoes were hard l,dry a flavorless and the eggs had a rubbery texture. The bacon was cold. The plan was to try a new breakfast spot and we checked this one off the list and don't plan on returning. I just can't give them a one star because the server was a good guy and the coffee was hot. Best of luck to this establishment, we just won't be back. read more

Had J. Christopher's for the first time today. We have lived in the area for almost 2 years and had no idea what we were missing. My wife and I along with my 4 year old left almost lethargic from the food. Couldn't stop eating till it was all gone. The tastes and flavors are great. We all had a late breakfast at 10:30am. Could not have been more pleased unless it was free! It was not much more expensive than the Waffle House but very good quality food. Great service. We will be back and probably become regulars after today. Strong 4 stars! read more

Good alternative to Waffle House or IHOP. The customer service was really good. Very fast and efficient. The restaurant was very clean as well. Prices were reasonable. Food came out within 15 minutes of ordering. The Smoked Cheddar Grits were very good and creamy!!!! The pancakes were a little mushy. The potatoes were also a little undercooked but had lots of flavor. Please note that alcohol is not available. read more

Nice little place to come get breakfast or lunch. The people who work there are very friendly and I've never had anything bad off their menu. Highly recommend read more

Would give 0 stars if I could. Poor quality food. Meal was cold. I ordered the bubba which is a biscuit with "sausage gravy" the sausage was cut up little pieces that were topped on the gravy. Never received a side of corned beef hash and when asked where it was the waitress blamed it on the computers being down. There was muck all over the divider separating the tables and the stainless steal coffee pot looked like it's never been wiped off. You're better off eating at home. read more

The food was delicious and the manager, Brianna, is extremely kind and helpful! Will definitely make this a new regular spot!

The food here is amazing! I came in on a Sunday afternoon for brunch and we were seated immediately. The dining area was packed, which is always a good sign. Our server was very attentive and made sure we left satisfied. I ordered the veggie delight omelette and it was a very generous portion. It came with a side of roasted potatoes and an English muffin. Everything came out warm and in a timely manner. read more

This is why I skip chains. Wasn't very good, had the hash it was dry, asked for hollandaise and they charged me for it.

I love this place! Lots of great breakfast items to choose, and a great atmosphere. Friendly staff and quick service.

Decided to give J Christopher's another try. Have not been here since another breakfast restaurant opened up very close to J Christopher's. Upon arrival found the male server sitting at the bar on his phone looking uninterested. Upon seating I waited 5 minutes ( place was empty I was one of only two customers ) after the 6 minute mark I got up out of my seat to find the server, I was ready to order and get on with my day. Again the male sever was sitting at the bar on his phone. I asked him who was my server and he just got up and followed me back to my table. Food was decent and came out quickly. Portions were good and quality was on par with this type of restaurant. As far as pricing - a bit on the expensive side, $17 and change for one person. Over all my experience was below average mainly due to the above mentioned server. read more

Food was ok. Very pricy for food I could have made at home. Service was great. Don't pay with cash!! Took 20 minutes for our server to come back. Not happy read more

We've eaten here many times and it's always delicious. The potatoes are amazing, the omelettes are always cooked to perfection and the kids adore the pancakes. read more

Great place quick service and quiet. Okay for small group of 3-6 more than that not so much

The last two times I have been to J. Christopher's the service has been slow and the food was not great. The first time was a weekday morning and not all that busy but the kitchen was slow and when the food did arrive the potato's were chewy and luke warm as if having sat for a long time under a heat lamp. This past Easter Sunday we went for brunch and granted it was busy but we were there an hour in total and it took 45 minutes for food to arrive after we ordered and then 3 of the orders were not right. They said they were just very busy, but two other tables near us arrived after us and had been served and departed before our first food was delivered. It was my order which came with the wrong side and the waitress said she would be right back with the other 3 orders. Twenty minutes later the other 3 orders arrived, one of which had the wrong entree and one with a quesadilla that had an entire section with nothing in it. The manager came and apologized for the issues and offered a 50% discount on the ticket which was appreciated but not enough for me to ever go back. In my view, establishments that value customers and want them to return after an experience like we had, would comp the meal. read more

We give it a C+. Food was so so. Breakfast potatoes were not worth eating. Coffee was burnt tasting. Service was just ok. Blueberry pancake was very good. Charging $2 for "pure" maple syrup seems silly and highlights the fact that the syrup you give with your meals is imitation. read more

Me and my husband have come to this j. Christopher's a couple times, and we have always had a pleasant time! Food is always so yummy and always comes out fairly fast! Today was not one of those times, our server "Hope" was very uninviting and seemed to not really care for our needs. She did not approach us with a warm welcoming, or bring any of our food out. Hope never even checked up on us the whole time, or even acknowledge us after all our items came out, but walked past us multiple time while she was talking to other tables. I've worked as a server and I get not being able to be everywhere, but to not even once stop by? come on. I had to flag another server down for some water, I felt I talked to every staff member but her, and to top it all off she had another server drop off our check while she was standing right next to her. I really do think it could of been a overall better experience if we had better service. read more
