Incredible food. You need to show up early to get in the queue for the 8AM opening... you will be happy you got there early Excellent service
Good food and decent service. Came around 11:00 on a Friday and waited about 10 minutes to be seated. Ordered #17, and it was good, nothing special but decent gravy and chicken. Overall would recommend if you're looking for a good brunch place and are in the area.
Friday after wifey had an apt we decided to head here for brunch. Small lineup outside and we only had to wait maybe 5-10minutes before we were seated at bar seating. After perusing the menu we ordered. Wifey wanted the buffalo blue Benedict but asked if she could have French toast instead of on English muffin. The server taking the order said yes but it would be an additional cost which was fine. We thought that was it but i guess this combo didn't sit well with her? She started to comment that the French toast and wasn't sure was good like this as if the egg was put on top it might get soggy, then she switched to she wasn't sure the chef would put it on the French toast or on the side.. eventually talking to herself saying never mind and pretty much dismissing as in.. ok your choice. Which should have been the stance in the first place. All that commentary was unnecessary. I ordered the fried egg, chicken and waffles. Also a side of corn bread. For our drinks we just got coffee which was decent. Our food arrived and the plating was beautiful. The fried chicken in my order was super crispy although bready but this is what was giving it the super crunch. Kinda hard to cut even though i had the serated knife. The Belgian waffle super soft and fluffy all throughout, no crisp on the outside. So when trying to cut through the chicken down to the waffle I was more tearing it than cutting. That aside, with the country gravy it was very tasty. On the heavier side with the eggs on top and as I get older I find it can't eat as much heavier items. I was only able to finish half of my plate. But it was very good! I tried some pieces of wifeys french toast and her chicken with blue cheese. The combo of bluecheese with the chicken was actually very nice. Her French toast was just ok imo. I didn't find it tasted any egginess so I don't think there was enough of a soak. The corn bread was underwhelming imo, felt like there wasn't alot of corn meal used as i didn't really taste it was corn bread. There were same pieces of corn inside which was different but inherently was missing the classic corn bread flavor. Again just my opinion. Over all a very nice brunch. Quality of the ingredients very good and flavors very good. Execution imo could be a little better and perhaps less judgment from server on the order Adjustment would have been nice. Still giving 4 stars as the ambiance and over all feeling was very positive.
I went on a Saturday late morning and waited in line for about 30 mins. There's usually a line but it goes by fairly quick. The food is very delicious. The fried chicken in the French toast dish was one of the juiciest chicken I've had. It was perfectly fried, lots of flavour and juicy. The toast is good was well, just thick and dense. The pork belly eggs benny had thick slices of pork belly and the seasoning on the eggs benny make it stand out compared to other eggs benny I've had. I think in general they have good food portions. The place was very cozy and well decorated for the Christmas season. The staff are all very friendly and attentive, refilling water and asking if we needed anything frequently. It's worth the wait.
I understand all the rage. What a wonderful breakfast spot. We arrived at 0930 and waited maybe 5-7 minutes. Eggs benes, I changed up the first one on the order and put ham instead of bacon. It was definitely one of the top three benes I've had in my life! (I've had many benes in my life!) Friend had the cinn. pancakes (they are plate size BTW) which looked fantastic. Wife had a tradition breakfast eggs, bacon, hashbrown. Definitely well worth a wait! Excellent food, highly recommend. Likely will go back again on this trip.
Busy place! Came on a Tuesday morning- little bit of a wait- behind the nylon rope on the sidewalk. Staff was informative , gave updates and were visibly trying to help and facilitate seating for patrons. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outside with the traffic. Service was quick and prompt- Orange juice was fresh and pulpy, tried my kids waffles and they were ok- he didnt eat much of them. Ordered plain jane pancake- was nice and fluffly w tasty real canadian maple syrup Had the chicken thigh benedict- in all honesty i wasnt expecting much- it was eggscellent! Egg was a nice benedict style made to order- and the chicken thigh meat was juicy and savory! Egg yolk flowed well . Apologize for the half eaten picture- i figure it's better than no picture. This place has a continuous line build up. Def seems like a goto place for locals and tourists. Eat breakfast here!
Stopped for breakfast on a Saturday. We were there shortly after open so there were still a few free tables left. We remembered from past visits the potions were quite generous so we decided to order one regular dish and one smaller one: - Fried Chicken, Eggs and Waffles - OK. Waffles were soggy and the fried chicken was average. It's hard to make eggs special but the gravy was pretty good. Portion size is a lot smaller than expected. - French Toast Sticks - OK. Average taste, but a bit too dry. Service was OK. More focused on efficiency than anything else. Overall, a bit underwhelming. This place prided itself on decent big breakfasts, and that's why it became so popular. But now that portions seem smaller, there is no value proposition. Just ends us being thoroughly average. Of course, when we left, we saw the large lines. I'm not so sure I would return.
Very busy when we arrived as it is a popular local chain. We were quickly seated outside and the wait staff were very friendly. The pancake was nice and fluffy, the chicken skillet, slightly salty with the seasoning. Overall good flavours but I did find 2 hairs.
A brunch staple in Vancouver, there's almost always a wait but the line moves pretty fast so as long as it wasn't raining too hard i'll wait in line. Personally live the savory bowls (honorary mention: tater tot bowl, charlie bowl) but their portions are MASSIVE and they last me at least one more meal after. My go to is the green eggs and ham the eggs mixed with pesto was amazing on their bread and hash brown.
It has been a minute since I went to Jam Cafe. Went there on a rainy Saturday morning at 11:00am and stood in line for 1hr 20min... but it was all worth it! I had friends visiting from Toronto who wanted to try Vancouver brunch, so I had to take them to Jam! I wasn't in the mood to eat eggs so decided to go for their lunch menu, it was my first time trying their lunch items. I got their flying buffalo sandwich with tater tots. It was sooo good!!! The sandwich was covered in buffalo sauce which I LOVED, the chicken was so tender and juicy. The tots were crispy and fresh.. I was very happy to try this out. My friend got their later tater bowl which was really good too but towards the end the tater tots got a bit mushy. It was very hard for her to finish it because of their huge portions! The Gravy Hoops were also really nice, came with a mushroom sauce, eggs benny, and fried chicken. Lastly, we got their Cracker Jack brioche french toast for the table. It was EXACTLY what we needed to complete the meal!! The nutella in there was so decadent and went very well with the whipped cream. The bowl of fruits were perfect too because one of our friends was vegan. Got giving the full 5-star for this one because I thought their customer service had dropped a bit... it took them 30mins to take our order after we sat. Moreover, when the food came we had no cutlery or glasses of water. The staff weren't super friendly and seemed like they just wanted to get done with it. I know weekends are a busy day for Jam so I get it. Would I go back? 100%!
Arrive early if you don't have much time! I arrived 8:05 and had to wait in line for about 20min as this place is very demanded. The blackstone was pretty good. The sauce on top of those pouched eggs was delicious and everything was served quickly. The portions are generous and I ended full to start my vacation with all the energy. The servers are very nice and the place is nice although a little small, but that was not a problem at all. I will be back!
After all the hype I've seen, along with the long queues everytime I passed by, I had higher expectations. While the wait in queue was reasonable, and service was good, I was rather disappointed with the fried chicken waffle. The chicken was on the dry side even after dipping in the gravy, to the point where small.pieces fall off when I cut it. The bite is on the chewy side. It was not crispy like a freshly fried chicken. The waffle was a bigger disappointment. At best, it was like waffles at a Best Western 3 star motel where you make it yourself. It was chewy and not very warm. The syrup had little taste as was.the gravy for the fried chicken. My partner's eggs Benny was good but still not outstanding.
Ok only heard about this place for months now! Heard if we went to get french toast and eggs benedict. We were in for savory today for a hangover cure. The inside is so cozy and cabin feeling and the perfect breakfast lodge vibe. Bar service was so quick and the food all is to die for with such a huge selection to choose from.

Pretty darn great!!! I loved the staff, the restaurant and the food!!! It was so yummy! No long waits! It was pretty cute from the inside. Staff was super friendly! Omg. I don't know where to start or end to this review but it's a MUST GO when you visit or live in Canada!!! Tons of street parking but could be pretty full since this is a famous restaurant. But I wouldn't mind the walk just for the end results! It's worth it! And try to get there early, so the like wouldn't be that long, but then again, WORTH IT! lol. Had Benedict's with kale and mushroom and added bacon! read more

We found street parking a couple doors down from Jam Cafe and it was free until 9AM. Coming that early was good as there was only a few tables or bar seats occupied. We got seated right after we walked in. Decor was rustic and cool. The menu was quite extensive. We heard the serving sizes were very generous so we ended up splitting some plates. The blueberry pancakes came as three gigantic circles and easily fed two. We wished they provided more of the blueberry compote and lemon curd to help moisten up the pancakes. The French toasts were very thick and quite filling. The side of bacon was a ripoff as we only got 2 slices for $9CAD. The bacon wasn't anything special. The old town breakfast came with scrambled eggs, chorizo, crispy hash browns and toast. A standard breakfast plate. Service was good overall. read more

Came here for my buddies bachelor party so we had a party of 10 people. We had to split up into two groups in order to grab tables, but it worked out perfectly. We had to wait about 40 minutes, which wasn't too bad. Service was amazing and everyone was incredibly friendly. I ended up ordering the Fried Chicken Benny and it was amazing. The hash browns were so fluffy and flavorful my the hollandaise sauce was perfect and not too thick. It was a perfect balance of flavors. I also ordered the Retro Mimosa (double) and it was strong! All in all it was a great experience and would absolutely come back here. Also, they will happily split bills for a large group! read more

I didn't know that this chain existed until a friend of mine introduced me to it, and wow, I am really impressed with what this cafe has to offer! The breakfasts/brunches here are of very high quality, the portions were big, and the prices were quite reasonable. The overall ambiance of the restaurant gave boutique vibes, almost like something you'd find at a boutique hotel. The service was very fast and friendly. My friend and I did not have to wait for long in order to receive our delicious breakfast/brunch meals. The tater tots especially were what helped make my meal stand out! They were really delicious and crispy. Overall, I loved my experience here and will definitely return the next time I'm in the Vancouver area. read more

I went to Jam Cafe on a weekend morning, and the line was already decently long. We waited for about an hour before getting seated, and I believe the food was worth the wait. The interior of the cafe was decorated with a Canadian theme. It was busy inside and definitely a popular place, but the service was still great. I love pork belly, so I ordered the pork belly benny with soft poached eggs and was very happy with it. The cuts of pork belly were nice and thick as mentioned on the menu, and the skin was so crunchy that it was a little difficult to cut with the knife. The hash browns were also crisp on the outside and softer on the inside, so I appreciated that balance. All the flavors in the sauces melded together nicely, and everything tasted great overall. I tried some bites of the later tater bowl with buttermilk fried chicken (at an extra cost since it's not one of the two protein options), and that was also delicious. I'm hoping to come back to try more things on the menu soon! read more
First of all, this place has HUGE portions food. The only downside to this is that we can't order as many things to try out! All of the food we tried out were delicious, my favorite being the Charlie Bowl, which was recommended by our waitress. It is a unique twist of a breakfast bowl with crunchy texture from the crumbled biscuit and sweetness from the corn. I took leftovers home and it was still good after being reheated! Overall, I had a good experience, although I do wish they incorporate some sort of an online waiting list because the line can get pretty crazy and standing in line in the rain was not fun. read more

Taste: 4.9/5 The Waffle Board with Cinnamon Roasted Apples was absolutely delicious and won't disappoint. The Cinnamon Bun Pancakes were huge and super sweet (you can opt for a single or double stack, just ask!). The Blackstone Benny was a great savory choice, but the real highlight was the hashbrowns--so perfectly seasoned, I'm still thinking about them! The Jam Iced Coffee was one of the best I've had in a while, though it's quite sweet, so keep that in mind. Price: 4/5 It's on the pricier side, but is it worth it? Absolutely. I'd consider it a nice treat every now and then. Service: 5/5 The staff was fantastic--super eager to get us seated as soon as possible despite the long lines. Speaking of which, those lines can stretch down the street, but we didn't wait long even with a group of 8. I went on a Saturday at 8:30, and we were seated fairly quickly. Atmosphere & Vibes: 5/5 The music was just the right volume--easy to chat without shouting. The cute decor and chill vibes made for a perfect dining experience. read more
I love how you can modify their menu to suit your dietary needs. I needed a gluten and dairy free option, so they basically told me I could choose anything and they'll make sure it was GF and DF. We ended up getting waffle & chicken; and a GF & DF old townhouse brekky. My only critique would be for them to provide bread substitute, i.e gluten free options. I would've liked a piece of toast with my meal but they didn't have any GF bread. Otherwise, very good service, lovely waiters, and a warm, clean and cozy atmosphere. We arrived 5 minutes before 8am and were seated as soon as they opened. Shortly after, there was a line up! read more
It's no doubt one of the best canadian brunch places in vancouver. The vibe and the food of this place is incredible. To get in the cafe, you have to stand in long queue and depending on your party size, day, time, the wait can vary from 20 mins to 2 hours. But once you are inside, the service is super fast. I loved their lychee mimosa and lavender mimosa. Vegan bowl was super flavorful. Must try! read more

Holy smokes! We stumbled upon this place not knowing it was one of the most poppin places in Vancouver! We got there around 8:30 and the line hadn't formed YET, but it started to around 9. The food was SO GOOD. And the portions were HUGE. I opted for the pulled pork pancake and it was the perfect blend of savory and sweet! I got the sour cream on the side and didn't end up using it as I didn't feel it needed it. Everyone else in my party also throughly enjoyed their food! The service was GREAT! We had a baby with us and asked if we could sit outside not realizing the outside seating wasn't open yet. But they didn't even bat an eye. They told us yes, and sat us down. I believe the manager was our waitress and she was SO NICE. read more

Jamming out to Jam Cafe! Wonderful staff and absolutely love the Kitsilano location. It's incredibly cozy and feels even more so during Christmastime with the red tile. They even decorated the moose head hanging above the fireplace lol! Order: - Drumroaster bottomless brewed coffee - Hot Chocolate w/ whipped cream - Chicken & French Toast (signature dish) - Cinnamon Bun Pancakes - Brussel Sprouts, Horseradish, and Bacon Benny Special (BEST BENNY I'VE EVER HAD) - Fried Chicken & Gravy Breakfast Plate Notes: - The line was incredibly long, waited around an hour or so? With that being said, they did ask our preference if we want bar, table, first available, etc. They sat people until closing which I was not expecting so props to them for turning tables so quickly! - Pancakes were least favorite solely because they were pretty dense and didn't have enough sauce to make it palatable but flavor was good (perfect with a morning coffee) - Both the french toast and the gravy used a certain spice that I could not put a name too (potentially five spice or all spice?); wanted to flag since I wasn't a huge fan of that flavoring but 5/5 for presentation for the fresh toast read more

This cafe is probably the most famous brunch place in town, with the longest queue I've seen in Vancouver so far. It is thus with high expectation that I went here, only to left disappointed, felt like it was very overhyped while being very much quantity over quality. Subpar coffee and juice was also straight from a bottle and not fresh. Ambiance was also lacking, with cramped spaces and tiny tables. Service was pretty nice and attentive, which is the only plus I could find about this cafe. Cinnamon Pancake $19.5(5/10) Described to me as a must try, however it was very average. Pancakes were not light or fluffy, instead they were very dense like a cake. Everything was drenched in syrup and cinnamon drizzle which made them soggy and overwhelmingly sweet. Cherry & Ricotta French Toast ($20) 4/10 As a massive french toast fan, I was not impressed by how dry the brioche slices were. I also struggled to cut through the edges. It was almost like they just dipped both sides and immediately pan fried instead of properly soaking the bread. Cherry tasted straight from the can.... read more
Oh Jam, you never disappoint me! This was the last location my family hadn't eaten at so we decided to give it a try and once again, I'm happy to say the quality of the food and the service are just as good as their other locations! Mom got the herald street omelette but with egg whites and she absolutely loved it. I tried a few pieces and the eggs were airy and light and it was fantastic. Dad got his usual apple cinnamon French toast which is always a winner for him. So much food though and he only managed to eat a little more than half. I ate about 3/4 of a piece and man, it was SO GOOD. But also super sweet! I don't think I could eat that as just my meal! But the thick pieces of brioche with that strong cinnamon, the perfectly cooked warm apple slices drenched in maple syrup... Holy moly what a dish! I noticed they had a new menu item that sounded yummy so I gave that a try, the eggs in purgatory. I am so glad I did!! Firstly, they really stacked up that fresh arugula on top of the skillet that by the time I finished eating just that, it felt like I had a nice little salad! But the skillet itself was incredible. The chorizo meatballs were large and had a perfect amount of spicy flavor that made me constantly crave another bite without being overly hot or anything! The spicy tomato sauce, a few pieces of thick tomatoes, a few onion pieces, and the eggs over medium all blended so well together in this dish. After I ate one of the meatballs and one egg, I ended up cutting up the other two meatballs into small pieces and then just mixing everything together in the skillet. That ended up created a sort of spicy chorizo chili! Long story short it was phenomenal and I ate every last drop of it. And if you're a fan of chorizo, I'd highly recommend giving it a try! We arrived on a Thursday about 15 mins before they opened and only one person was in front of us. By 8am, I'd say about 10 people were in line so not too bad! Friendly service, clean restrooms, great experience. Jam is always a must stop for us when we travel up to Vancouver I will ALWAYS recommend it to anyone who goes up there! read more
This place is always busy! The line is never short and people will stay even on the rainiest day! Again, it's small inside with not many seats. The menu is huge and there's a lot to choose from. The plates are full and it's hard to finish in my opinion. I wanted to try the pancakes and we split them thinking we could finish it all. Definitely not! Since it's so busy they're quick at getting your order and then your meal out and as soon as you're done they come with the bill. No reservations are taken so either come early or late to avoid long lines. read more
