Stopped in after a night of donating to the local casino. Looked up reviews of local places and this place looked like what we needed. Service was not the fastest but wasn't bad for the CONSTANT flow of customers coming in the door. They kept my coffee cup full so that's a win in my book. Food came out in a reasonable time frame based on how busy they were. We ordered two omelettes and they were delicious!! If you're looking for a break from the same old same old, Jake's Restaurant is a great option. Just be ready to be here longer than your chain places. read more

Came here on a rainy Sunday about 12:30. We got one of the last tables. As usual very busy and people were waiting for tables. We brought a friend with us who has never been here before. She ordered an omelette and toast but she didn't realize potatoes don't come with it. So after the food came out she ordered a side of potatoes. They took forever to come out. So normally a diner would have hash browns and home fries already on the griddle but this place seems to put them on the griddle made to order which is probably why this place is always packed. On the other hand the food was great. I had my waffle with butter and their house made strawberry jam. I also ordered a half order of their biscuits and gravy. That was better than expected. The biscuit was soft and flaky and the gravy had the most meat in it that I've ever had. Bacon wasn't as crispy as last time but still great. Bacon can't go wrong. Especially deep fried bacon. My son had the chicken tenders and fries. I assumed the fries were meh because he didn't finish them. The chicken tenders were pretty good. Besides a few French fries we all finished all of our food. Service was ok. Had some moments when we were trying to get her attention for a bit but like I said it was a full house in there. Those cute one of a kind bird houses are for sale so make sure to purchase the one you have your eye on. A couple bought two of them while we were there. Only one tv here and best to sit at the counter if that's what you like to do while you eat. Lots of locals eating here and chit chatting. Great food at a relaxed pace. read more

Found this restaurant on a quick overnight in CT, it's attached to the local package store so it's easy to miss. Jakes serves breakfast & lunch. Open till 2:00 daily, serving homemade food. We had the hash omelet with toast and homemade jelly, and scrambled eggs with toast and homemade jelly which is so tasty. Restaurant is small and gets busy but staff is very friendly and knows the locals. Prices are reasonable and portions are great. Looking forward to going back and trying a few other menu items. They also have the cutest homemade birdhouses for sale. read more

Great breakfast - worth the wait on a Sunday but there is no "hurry" in any of the staff. There were people waiting to be seated continuously, yet clearing tables was not a priority. Maybe they were short staffed? I had the French toast with real maple syrup and a side of scrambled eggs. Hubby had eggs, hashbrowns & bacon and a delicious cinnamon roll when he was done. Ciah and Amy were great. We were not in a hurry and the food is good so we will definitely be back. read more

Stopped by for breakfast after spending the previous day at Foxwoods Casino. Small cozy diner- friendly staff. My eyes were bigger than my stomach- I knew I had to have the grilled cinnamon roll (yum) but I couldn't pass up the sausage biscuits and gravy (that came with 2 eggs and potatoes). $20 later I had a large spread of food. Everything was cooked perfectly. Many locals- a few visitors like me. Could miss it if you weren't looking- attached to the package store (aka liquor store) next to the Mobil gas station. read more

We stay in the area all the time, but have never noticed this place. Stopped in today for something different. It's a nice diner kind of vibe. Friendly service and excellent food! I had "The Regular" with two eggs, bacon, toast (homemade jelly), and hash browns. It was all delicious and I won't hesitate to come here again next time we come! read more

After a trip to Foxwoods we stopped here for breakfast. Did not disappoint! Gracie was a great waitress, even noticing our ice coffee needed more ice. The pancakes were fluffy and delicious. My husband's omelette was delish as well. And the homemade corned beef hash was out of this world. Big chunks of beef with potatoes and a little sliced onion, you can tell was homemade. If you don't want an overpriced meh meal at Foxwoods, leave early and come here. open till 2pm. read more

Jake's Restaurant - What's left of homemade corned beef hash and blueberry pancakes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - North Stonington, Connecticut

Before we went home, we wanted breakfast Sunday morning after a night at Foxwoods. The four of us arrived around 9 a.m. and were seated right away. It seemed like we got there at the perfect time because about 10 minutes later, we could see a line forming waiting for tables. The inside is small but clean and well-spreadfive out, so you don't feel like you are sitting super close to other people. Our table got blueberry pancakes, (homemade) hash and eggs, biscuits and gravy, and a turkey club sandwich for food. The pancakes were the best on the table, fluffy, fresh berries, and a huge portion. The sausage gravy was more sausage than gravy, but the biscuit was homemade. The hash wasn't very flavorful and had huge potato pieces in it. The toast came with a side of homemade jam. We opted for the Mango, which I had never tried before, but it was great! I didn't try the turkey club, but my friend said she enjoyed it. Its not 5 stars..but they arent trying to be either, its a great place to stop when you are heading to Foxwoods. Try the jam! read more

Service was great. Forget her name but she was a young lady who was very attentive and polite. Food? Was good, not great where u would want to come back craving it. We wanted to try here bc we've seen good reviews BUT.... We saw rat droppings on the plates when we had asked for some extra plates for the kiddos..... I didn't know until after we left the restaurant but my hubby and my girlfriend saw them when we were given a stack of plates.... If I had seen it or known about it, we would have all left right away... wish they were better about keeping their kitchen cleaner... wanna puke still thinking about how we are from those rat droppings plates.... read more

EVERYTHING DOWN TO THE TOAST I kid you not absolutely everything we ordered here was amazing. The corned beef hash was tender and delicious, the biscuits and gravy were the perfect ratio and the gravy was amazing. My favorite part and a must order was the homestyle potatoes. Absolutely fire- they were hot and crunchy and flavorful. Even the toast with homemade blueberry jam would have me crawling back to this gem. We also tacked on an order of the cinnamon roll and i swear my heart grew two sizes. Last thing, it's a local breakfast place and it's small so expect a line in the morning but I swear the ladies here are turning those tables quickly. Definitely worth the wait and definitely worth the trip. 100/10 read more

There was a line when we arrived but it moved quickly and we didn't wait more than 5-10 mins. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. We split the cinnamon bun which was delicious! My husband and I both had omelettes, he chose the toast with homemade jam and I chose a hashbrown. We were very happy with the food. Restaurant is cozy and there's plenty of seating. read more

I came here for breakfast after a night spent at Foxwoods. We started our meal by sharing a cinnamon bun, which we both enjoyed. My husband ordered the hash and eggs, while I got apple cinnamon pancakes with sausage and home fries. We were both happy with the quality and portion of our food. This will be our go-to breakfast spot after a casino night! read more

Solid diner with a few real highlights. Friendly staff in a very no frills atmosphere. We sat at the counter since ,ost of the tables had families who needed the seats. Great breakfast all around but two call outs. First, the corned beef hash was amazing. Fresh roasted corned beef and potatoes, and very heavy on the beef! Big chunks of thick cut CB with just enough potatoes to round out the hash. Second, homemade strawberry and mango jams that were so good we bought jars to take home. Definitely worth the drive for a great home style breakfast read more

Well now I wish I had taken some pictures before eating everything up. But the photos that already exist on Yelp are accurate. We had the corned beef hash, turkey club, hash browns, and french toast and everything was amazing. Even my picky toddler enjoyed it. Everything was well-seasoned and the chef goes above and beyond--even making homemade jam! Thankfully, you can buy a jar for $10 to take home with you. They have strawberry, blueberry and mango. The staff is very friendly and attentive, and the restaurant is very clean and bright. Even the bathrooms are well-kept. They have unique birdhouses on a tall cabinet for sale at reasonable prices. This restaurant is definitely one to go out of your way to patronize as it is one of the few places that really checks off all the boxes! We will definitely be back! read more

Good service, good food and convenient for a reasonable price. Hotel stopped serving breakfast at 10am. Lucky to find Jake's

Great service, great food! I got a build your own omelette with sausage, spinach, pepper, and onion. read more

We went twice for breakfast while staying nearby. The pancakes are fluffy and delicious, we had nice hot coffee, and the full menu is available all day. You may want to be patient as there are times when you'll wait for a table, enjoy the serene forests that surround you. I hope this gem sticks around for a long time. read more

We were in the area and just searched breakfast places near by. We happened upon Jake's and were pleasantly surprised. The inside is a simple dinner style interior but very clean. The staff greeted us as soon as we arrived. I ordered the banana peanut butter pancakes with chocolate chips. So delicious. I also couldn't resist a side of the homemade corn beef hash. Definitely not disappointed! Glad we found this gem! read more

We arrived at this restaurant a little after 10 am on a weekday. It took us about 10-20 minutes to get seated. We were waiting for over an hour to get mediocre meals. The food was also overpriced and service was slow. read more

If I could give 10 stars, I would! To find a restaurant in my area (I live in RI) that can cook an egg is huge! I do not like eggs that have runny whites...gross. I'm fairly new to Jake's (about 5 xs) every time the breakfast is cooked..Thank you! I tell people all the time about Jake's...keep up the great work! And your homemade French fries are great, too! read more

Seems to be a locals joint and they seem to love and I have to agree. Great food and great service. This definitely a hidden gem. Loved the Banana bread and the pancakes. My omelette was fantastic as was the toast with homemade jam! The home fries were the only things that were average. Will definitely be back. If I lived closer I would be there at least once a week! read more

A very cute breakfast spot. They make their own delicious jelly in different flavors. The cinnamon buns are to die for. They are fresh, grilled and swimming in icing. The home fries are very tasty with spices and onions in them. The waitress was very attentive even with a full room. If you are in the area or in the way to the casino it is a great spot to stop! read more

Service was good!! Food was stale. Pancake size shrank considerable from the last time I ate there. Prices are unusually high. $4.00 for a glass of milk is ridiculous. $2.75 for a can of soda... I know that ALL prices have gone up and that's completely understandable but when portions go down at the same time then somethings wrong. Sorry but I'm just being honest/truthful. read more

Great food, very friendly staff! We had a group of 6 and they were very accommodating. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Huge omelette selection, giant French toast, home made jam, and great pancakes. Convenient location, just down the street from Foxwoods and open earlier than any of the options in the casino for us early birds. read more

Good menu choices, reliable to 'fill a void '. Omelet was good not skimpy on cheese , asked for crispy home fries and ' got them'.

On our way back to NY, we stopped by this place to go in CT. Reviews seems favorable on Yelp. Pulling up, there actually is another diner next door, but for some reason, this one just seen more inviting. We had our order to go and I forgot that via Yelp, you could get a cup of coffee for free. I got the gramie omelette which was a vegetarian omelette with spinach, onion, mushroom and green peppers. It came with a side of hash. My wife got the eh-vah omelette which was made with homemade corn beef hash and potato. My son got the evah eggs n hash which came with 2 eggs, corn been hash, and toast. The star of the dishes for them was the corn beef hash as mmm it hit the spot. Overall, the food is no frill but pack great flavor for diner food. Would definitely recommend and the workers in there are amazing. read more

A fantastic spot for some amazing breakfast! I was in the area for a road race, the No Sto Defeats MSA 5K, just up the street. After a wet, early morning run, I was starving. Jake's was on my way back through to get home and I was sold on the reviews for the waffle. Being a Saturday, it was busy, so I waited a few minutes for a table. Always worth it though if you know it's going to be good! To reward myself I ordered the house made hash and of course the waffle. I included pictures so you could see the legit-ness of this hash. I have seen "homemade" thrown on the menu many a time and it being a stretch or an outright lie. This hash was just gorgeous, refreshing, and of course tasty. The ginger waffle was also everything I wanted it to be. Crispy and the perfect balance of sweet treat with that little bit of gingerbread "tang. My food came out quickly as well considering the craftsmanship and the crowd. My server's name was Gracie. She was very nice and asked me about my race and my shoes! She is a hardcore marathoner! She has run several and was considering which one to do next! Very kind and some great stories and accomplishments to share. If you see her, be sure to ask her about her next race or her last one. She is awesome. An all around perfect breakfast experience in my eyes. It is not a short drive for me for breakfast, so I do not get out there as often as I would like. Probably a good thing because those waffles would foil many a race morning if they were closer. read more

Great spot for breakfast on your way back home from a long night at the casinos. The starters, which are the Cinnabon or the warm toasty banana bread are amazing. Can't go wrong with either one. The pancakes were cooked perfect, and the legit fresh homemade corn beef hash was to die for. Service was great and got a seat right away. My buddy had the rancher omelet and he loved it as well. If you're leaving the casino or starting your day at the casinos you should stop in. read more

We are from out of town and walked in a little concerned because this is Not the prettiest place. But man the food! Delicious homemade breakfast. Large portions. The eggs were so fresh, sausage very tasty and they make their own jelly! But the star of the meal was the pancakes. Probably the best I have ever had. Not sure what they do, but they need to keep on doing it! Prices are very reasonable also! And the wait staff was so warm and friendly. read more

Just stopped in for a quick bite for breakfast. Was feeling a bit peckish, so I ordered the big breakfast of Grannie's Omelet. Delish!!! If you ever watched the show "Schitt's Creek", this diner totally reminds me of the diner featured on the show. It has the typical North Stonington small-town atmosphere with customers and staff engaging in conversation and chatting with each other. I really love the vibe here. I just wish it was busier for the owners. First time here and definitely not the last!! read more

8 of us came here after a night of Foxwoods. There was a wait but that's expected on a Saturday morning. The coffee took forever to get because they had issues with the coffeemaker however I don't think that they charged us for it. I was skeptical of the food when I was looking at the pictures on Yelp but it was actually pretty good. Definitely recommend this place! read more

OMG! Food was delicious and plentiful. The Corned Beef Hash was best ever. You gotta try this place :-)

No star Let me mention I have been a waitress for 10+ years I have a 1 hour lunch break I showed up because all the other restaurants are closed on Mondays except the Dunkin' Donuts near by or I could have risked a stomach ache and gotten the chicken and Jojos from the gas station but I chose to waste my break at jakes not even a full dining room, the woman says " i cant just put a scoop of tuna in a togo cup, everyone else needs to be served first, its first come first serve. All I had was a 50 and she would have gotten all the change. Word of mouth is important. And today Jake's place failed me. I had no idea a scoop or 2 of tuna in a to go container was so difficult. Thanks for lunch. This place looks cute but has zero customer service no stars but 2 thumbs down for sure very disappointed read more

A homey atmosphere with really great breakfast! It's a little hole in the wall that doesn't look like anything special but the food is awesome, especially after a night of drinking at Foxwoods (only a couple of miles from the casino). Try the cinnamon buns if you can get them - AMAZING read more

I'm writing this while eating on an adventure . The vibes are perfect. Dark moods can easily cloud one's mind , but a conversation with one of the waitress's Eva or Shaun might just brighten one of those cloudy days . Fortunately the day was bright and sunny some may consider hot yet the atmosphere in the restaurant was cool . They take care of their restaurant and you can tell by the cleanliness . Cooks know what their doing as well . Got biscuits and gravy and it was 9.5/10. Would come back 100%, and I'm extremely glad I came here today . read more
