First time: This place is old school, and we love supporting local business. Went for breakfast and everything was very good and the portions were perfect. The best part was our waitress/waiters were very pleasant and uplifting. Only con: Cash only. There is an ATM machine in there in case you forget. read more

Unfortunately, we had a disappointing experience. The air-conditioning was off, leaving our entire party sweating and uncomfortable. We were initially told they accepted only cash, which would have been fine, but I didn't have any with me. The waiter then directed me to pay through the QR code on the table. When I noticed the prices were higher through that system, he assured me a discount would offset the difference. However, that discount was never applied. Between the uncomfortable conditions and the unfulfilled promise, I will not be returning. read more

Today I went back to my local stereo shop on Reseda Blvd for a repair to my stereo. When I visited this same stereo shop six months ago, I decided to visit the coffee shop across the street for some food while I waited for my repair. On that visit, I met Joyce the owner, and she happily served me my meal that day, and I had an exceptional experience. I left Joyce's coffee shop a very satisfied five star review later that day. The last time I came, Joyce was not present again (she works weekends). Today I tried to visit Joyce again, but forgot she works weekends--but today I met Ms. Faith. Faith's customer service was above and beyond. The warmth. The friendliness. The pride in her work and her role in the Joyce's Coffee Shop family. The joy. The most charming smile and energy. The enthusiasm. The work ethic. I wanted Faith to join me for my meal, but she never stopped working, and she had no break planned. Faith is actually a former bartender with many years of experience. She made millions of dollars in tips over the years, because all the drunks would fall in love and hand their wallets over to Faith. She was great at what she did. Patrons would go to her bar, sit down, and blackout just because they were there to chat with Faith for as long as possible. Of course they couldn't just sit there--so they'd just order drink after drink. And drink. And tip. And then ATM. And then more drinks with Faith. Tips tips tips. Faith made millions as a bartender (that's how she bought her Bentley coupe). As a bartender, she even got a 3 wedding proposals, and 4 "modeling" offers . And Faith LEFT the money and the fame--once she discovered Joyce's Coffee Shop. Faith knew she wanted to be in that warm, friendly and welcoming atmosphere--as often as possible. Faith applied for work at Joyce's, then followed-up daily with Joyce's for 2 weeks--and ultimately earned herself a spot on Team JCS. The food was 5-stars--as always. It's as goods as eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes and hot coffee get. The environment was another 5-stars--always clean, always welcoming and always playing carefully curated playlists of yesterday's biggest hits. Joyce's Coffee Shop has been in business since 1955, and they've done such a great job of not only preserving the original dining room setup and upholstery, but also the original owner's commitment and dedication to great food in a welcoming environment--produced and served by the best customer service. And sitting in Joyce's Coffee Shop is like sitting in a blast from the past. It's classic. It's retro. It's vintage. It's well-preserved. Joyce's Coffee Shop is part of San Fernando Valley history. It's kinda like a Valley historical landmark. It's definitely a San Fernando Valley treasure. It's on its 4th owner, and it was never sold to a new owner that wasn't fully committed to the original owner's original mission. The diner mission of "as good as it gets," and "keeping it that way"--I love that. All staff is warm, friendly and welcoming. Even the customers are warm, friendly and welcoming--they all seem to know exactly where they are, and thats why they are there. Have you ever watched the classic TV show "Cheers"? That show about a bar where everybody knows your name? Just like that TV bar, Joyce's gives that "local feel"--the best feel. You'll never get that at Denny's, IHOP or Norms. I live in Woodland Hills so I'm rarely in Northridge, but if I am around in the AM or lunchtime -- I hope to visit again. Food -- 5 stars (I'm still stuffed) Environment -- 5 Stars (clean & cool) Service -- 5 [hearts on fire emoji] 5 stars -- (only because I can't give 6) PS: I forgot to mention that Mrs. Joyce's husband Mr. Joyce is the head chef at JCS. I forgot to mention this because I have yet to meet Mr. Joyce--but I guess Mr. Joyce's reputation will precede him in my case, (that's if I ever even get a chance to meet Mr. Joyce). Not only is Mr. Joyce the head chef, he's there 7 days a week, making somebody's love-made food. And for anyone that could not connect these dots: he doesn't work 7 days a week because he has to. Mr. Joyce works 7 days a week because there's nothing he would rather be doing, than preparing someone's great food with total care, at a business that's known for customers leaving with huge smiles for many decades. Nothing makes Mr. Joyce happier than ensuring everything coming out of JCS is "5 Star Quality"--as good as it could possibly get. He does it because the San Fernando Valley is lucky to have Joyce's Coffee Shop. 5 STARS. read more

My husband was in the mood for a little hole-in-the-wall place, and I didn't know of any, so I randomly picked this one. I'd say I scored some major points with him! Great food, service an awesome playlist, and we grabbed seats at the bar. Sometimes the best memories come from the places you find by chance. Enjoyed meeting the owner and hearing all about their delicious coffee from his country Guatemala near lake Atitlan! read more

Living in the area, I've passed by Joyce's for years. Decided to take the jump and stop by for a bite a few times. Granted we're not high volume patrons, the experiences we've had made it more than memorable. Due to an upgraded status, finding ADA places are necessary during this era. Joyce's shop is accessible, with very limited stairs. Parking may be sparse but you don't have to worry about climbing steps. Their daily specials are plentiful, and you can modify it if you're a spice wuss (like me (thanks GERD)]. The area is nestled in a nice space, with other local shops.

Had a solo breakfast date here and couldn't have picked a better place. As soon as I walked in I was greeted and led to a cute little booth. The diner itself has great charm with that oldies vibe and the menu has quite an array of choices. I went with a traditional breakfast and cup of coffee. As it was a Sunday morning I decided to try a mimosa and that day their special was a watermelon flavored one. Everything was sooo good. The portion was more than enough and cooked well. I love me some crispy bacon so the fact that not a single bite was chewy is a huge plus for me. The staff were friendly and extremely attentive. With a good book, yummy food and comfortable environment it was a nice way to start off my Sunday. I will definitely be back! **** they are cash only; but do have an atm on site if needed read more

Popped in for breakfast while staying at a friend's place. Looked quite vintage and fun. Greeted nicely by everyone. I already had a bowl of cereal so not too hungry. Eggs Benedict, pancake combo and western scramble came out to my friends. Three of us got their special juice of the day! Fresh squeezed watermelon and pineapple. HUGE! A true BIG GULP. Delicious. I got a side order of pork chop. It was tender, juicy and delicious. Fun diner because nothing (except prices) has changed much. Surprised to hear our freshly squeezed juice was a mere $3.95! What year is this? I had a fun time. Sign was advertising $.79 for a quart of Carnation Ice Cream. I told our waitress I would like 100 to go. read more

This place is a true gem. Warm and cozy athmosphere (feels like going home), yummy food (like you want to order double of everything) and the BEST service (deserving of a 100 stars) and the sampling of the pie took this whole experience to a different level:)) We took our son who is at CSUN to breakfast to Joyce's and I can honestly say that Faith (our server) and the whole crew behind the counter made our day. Thank you guys for your warm welcome and a delicious meal, we will be back! read more

I love diners and am glad this place is still around. Was craving a waffle this week and decided to stop by Joyce's coffee shop in northridge since it was on the way. I had a blueberry waffle, bacon and eggs. Customer service was great, this was my second or third time dining here and my experience has always been positive. Note: this is a cash only establishment read more

*Please note before you go: This place is CASH ONLY!!* I went to Joyce's for brunch with family. The service was great, our waiter was attentive and it was a welcoming environment. We were lucky and were seated right away. I decided to try Joyce's special breakfast and hot tea. The breakfast special comes with two bacon, two sausage links, two scrambled eggs, and two pancakes for $14.99. The hashbrowns were perfectly crispy and were my favorite part of my plate. The sausage links were nothing special, just regular ones you'd buy at the grocery store. The bacon strips sadly tasted too much like cooking oil. The pancakes were good but were ones that I can get at any diner. Maybe I ordered the wrong plate? I'll order their waffle or a savory plate next time to see if it's better. Overall, a nice environment and wonderful staff but the food didn't stick out to me. read more

If you're looking for a quality American style breakfast, this is the place. Everything that we ordered was delicious and comforting. The pancakes are fluffy, the waffles have a nice crisp, the breakfast burrito is hefty, the eggs Benedict was light but satisfying. All the food was so good. The coffee was brewed perfectly and the watermelon juice was sweet and refreshing. This place is cash only but they do have an atm in case you forget. It is also on the smaller end so if you're a party of 4 or more you will be waiting but this place is well worth the wait. read more

Since my move to California 7 years ago, Joyce's Coffee Shop has been a routine place to go for breakfast or lunch. I frequent there at least once a month and I have never had a bad experience. The staff is both friendly and knowledgeable of everything item on the menu. I usually order the breakfast special, regardless of the time of day, but this time I ordered the 1/2 pound cheeseburger combo (I was very hungry). It was served on sourdough toasted bread and was loaded with tomato, lettuce, onions and pickles. It was accompanied by an enormous side of fries that were fresh, not frozen and cooked to perfection. I highly recommend trying out Joyce's Coffee Shop. I'm sure you will not be disappointed. read more

We love this hidden gem! My husband and I recently moved to Northridge from Granada Hills and always enjoy exploring the mom and pop spots in our neighborhood. We love supporting our community and finding places that are unique and delicious compared to big chains. We pass by this place all the time on our way to CSUN to walk our dogs, and we finally decided to come in last year. So glad we did. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming, and the food is consistently delicious. They offer weekly specials, and some of the best meals I've had here have been from those. I also had the chance to speak with the owner, who shared that she and her husband own the café and source their coffee from their own farm in Guatemala. The coffee is incredibly smooth and honestly one of my favorite parts of coming here. Joyce Café has been part of Northridge for over 50 years, which makes it feel even more special. I also love the old photos of the Valley displayed on the walls. It adds such a nostalgic and local touch. Do not leave without trying a slice of pie. They're all good, but my personal favorite is the cherry. Just a heads up, they close at 3pm and are cash only, but they do have an ATM on site. Overall, we love this place and highly recommend it. We come here often and will be back! read more

Joyce's Coffee Shop in Reseda really cheered me up after a rough night. I had the California Benedict with hash browns and half an order of French toast--everything had perfectly balanced flavors and was cooked just right. The portions were generous, and the presentation made it feel like a little treat. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and the cozy atmosphere makes it a great spot to relax or reset your day. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area! read more

Joyce's Coffee Shop - California Benedict Hash Browns 1/2 French Toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Northridge, California

Ok, so when a coffee shop boasts 'best pancakes in the Valley' carbs be damned, Imma goin' in! Went with a simple Short Stack combo: 2 eggs, 2 bacon(or sausage), 2 plate size pancakes. Hubs went with 2 eggs, ham steak and country potatoes with/toast. Everything was solid. The potatoes got left behind. No flavor, but that seems to be the norm: leave it to the customer to add S/P, hot sauce, etc. They were cooked nicely. But the pancakes is why I was here. According descriptions on Yelp, they are scratch from their own recipe. They were lightly fluffy with a slight bit of "chewiness". Yummy, but I prefer Heavenly Pancakes and LuLu's, both of which are a thicker, cake-like pancake with a slight sweetness. Still, I believe, like MANY THINGS, pancakes are subjective to the palette. If you favor a slightly chewy pancake vs a cake-y pancake, Joyce's will satisfy your craving. We like coming to Joyce's because the service is always friendly and food is served promptly and well made. We enjoy all the pics and memorabilia on the walls and the OG diner vibe. Their brunch "Happy Hours" are all week, but additional special can be had on weekends and for early risers before 9am. CASH ONLY!!! But - lucky for us - an ATM is conveniently located toward the front of the restaurant. $2.50 service fee. A bucket of Red Vines near the register encourages you to 'take one and smile', so that alone should fill you with warm fuzziness. Cheers! "CC" read more

Joyce's Coffee Shop has that great small town feel. They have booths that run along the wall and a classic counter with stools. There is street parking as well as a parking lot in back. They only accept cash so know that! There is a restroom available to customers and it was clean. Our server was friendly and checked on us regularly. The coffee is hot and good, not bitter. They have an extensive menu, however we went there for breakfast and stuck with the classics. Bacon and eggs with crispy hash browns and english muffic. Eggs benedict with crispy hash browns. Everything came out hot, yummy, and just as ordered. We do not live in the area but had something to do in Northridge. We like to try local non-chain type spots and searched Yelp for a coffee shop. Very pleased we found this great spot. It's not fancy. It's not trendy. It's not in a large shopping center. It is a comfortable setting emitting a nostalgic, timeless feeling, almost like stepping into a memory. read more

A True Hidden Gem - Worth Every Bit! After hearing about Joyce's Coffee Shop for what felt like forever, we finally made it in and wow, it did not disappoint. This place has been serving breakfast and lunch since 1955, and the moment you walk in, you feel it. The classic diner setting is warm, nostalgic, and completely unpretentious - exactly what a neighborhood spot should be. The food was absolutely amazing. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. It's the kind of meal that reminds you why you love a good diner breakfast. The coffee was a standout highlight - sourced from a Guatemalan farm, it was rich, smooth, and honestly one of the better cups we've had in a long time. What really made the experience though was the staff. Everyone was genuinely kind and friendly - the kind of warmth that makes you feel like a regular on your very first visit. A couple of helpful tips for first-timers: Joyce's is cash only, but don't let that catch you off guard - there's an ATM on-site. Also, parking can seem tricky at first glance, but there's plenty of parking in the back. We will absolutely be back, and we can't recommend this place highly enough.

My husband and I had the pleasure of visiting Joyce's Coffee Shop for the first time today , and it was truly an unforgettable experience. We sat at the bar and were lucky enough to be served by the legendary Joyce herself, which made the visit feel even more special and personal. Talking to her we learned that her husband is the cook and she runs the front , this is really a true mom and pop shop!! The menu truly has something for everyone. My husband isn't usually a big breakfast person, but he decided to try Joyce's Special anyway and when I tell you he devoured those pancakes, I was in complete shock. They were incredibly soft, light, and fluffy, and somehow didn't leave us feeling heavy or bloated afterward. Even the syrup stood out, its not watered down like you find at most breakfast spots. Honestly, the food looked so amazing that we didn't even get a picture we started eating immediately. The service was absolutely top tier. Every single person working there made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers. The bacon was to die for, perfectly cooked and full of flavor and everything tasted incredibly fresh. One of our favorite touches was the aguas frescas. We tried the watermelon and the lemon, mint, and cucumber, and they were beyond refreshing. To top it off the mint and lemon were picked fresh from their garden that very morning!! From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed, and by the time you leave, you feel like family. Joyce's Coffee Shop has that classic diner charm and warm family ambiance that's hard to find these days. I would highly recommend anyone in the San Fernando Valley to come at least once and experience it for themselves you won't regret it. 10/10 experience! read more

Great specials and even better customer service. The people that served us were welcoming from the start and we got our food right away!

Just had a wonderful breakfast here with wifey and t'was all good! They had a good variety in their menu and a lot to choose from. We had their breakfast special which includes 2 sausage 2 bacon 2 eggs, 2 pancakes and hashbrown and it was yummy. Hashbrown was fried right and crispy. Eggs and bacon were cooked perfectly better than ihop and dennys doing it, lol! Their pancakes are creamy and fluffy! The philly cheesesteak were yummy too with the steak seasoned well and with the right amount of onion and peppers. Our server is very good. He even got our furry friend water to gulp on. Always checking up on us. Service was fast. Place is very clean, nice, organized and spacious! They also have a table and cozy seat with pillows outside if you have a furry friend with you or you just simply want the ambiance outside dining. Will definitely comeback here and give the other dish a try! Overall 4.5/5 stars! read more

If you live anywhere in the area of Encino, Tarzana, Reseda, Northridge, Woodland Hills, you've just got to make your way to Joyce's. Seriously. This old school coffee shop (opened in 1955) serves some of the best breakfast in the Valley. I've enjoyed all sorts of omelets and scrambles and daily specials -- and their breakfast burritos are big enough for 2 to share. This time, I had their homemade Corned Beef Hash, served with perfectly crispy edges and on-the-mark over medium eggs. Lots of flavor, and very satisfying. I opted to not get potatoes or any of the other side options, but it does come with your choice plus toast. What's also great is the feel of the place. They've managed to keep their original decor in good shape (or they've updated it cleverly to feel original), and even though some of the fixtures do look "old" in a good and fun way, the place is sparkling clean. Service is alway top notch from a tight team of cooks and servers who are fast, friendly and very attentive. They have a liquor license, so they serve a full range of drinks to turn breakfast into brunch, and even though they are cash only, they do have an ATM available (and there's a Wells Fargo half a block away). Really, come on in and give it a try. Your first time definitely won't be your last. read more

I went to have breakfast the other day at 6:30 when they opened, I ordered the breakfast special number four, which is a Denver omelette. Food was good as usual. I was ready to pay my bill I could not find the server so I left payment on the table mind you the breakfast special is $9.99 so I left $13 on the table and walked out. As I arrive to my car, the server runs outside with ticket and cash in his hand and tells me that I need to pay my bill. I said I left my payment on the table he said this is not enough. I said what do you mean he then goes on to tell me that I ordered the regular omelette on the menu that is $20. I did not have time to discuss this with him, I needed to go to work. So beware of what you order and make sure you're ordering exactly what you want from the menu because if you do not, it you will be blamed for making the wrong order and you will be charged accordingly.

This place used to be really good - in the PAST the food was good, service was excellent but decor needed some improvement. This time the food was so bad I could only eat a couple of bites before I started feeling sick. Coffee was the worst I've ever had. Service was really slow for our table. Threw up when I got home. Definitely will not be going back after this. read more

Very cute, cash only hole in the wall diner. Service was quick to help and our server was polite. They have a very wide breakfast selection, but only serve plain coffee. The coffee was cold. Food was very on par to a home cooked meal. I feel like I did not order correctly. I tried the loco loco purely for the novelty. It was a chili cheese and hash brown topped with egg dish, but it was not good. The chili was flavorless and obviously from a can, and the hash browns were soggy from the chili. My partner got the pancakes, which were good but nothing special. Also, as soon as our food was served, another waiter immediately brought our check to the table. We hadn't even taken a bite of our meal, and felt like we were being rushed out. Maybe it's normal for their regulars, but it was off putting for our first visit. Not sure if we will be back. read more

Great little coffee shop. Very nice servers and a great breakfast w eggs, meat, potatoes and pancakes for less than $12.

I'm very loyal to my go to diner. But as I was driving I saw this place and decided to give it a chance. Got seared immediately and had a look at the menu, but when my server told me the special of the day was Chorizo Benedict and it came with a fresh watermelon juice...that was it, I was sold. The juice needed some lime juice ( which he gladly got me) and that was perfect for me. Then the plate came out hot, fresh, and beautifully plated. I worried the chorizo was going to be greasy, but it wasn't at all. It was flavorful, meaty, spicy but not blow your nostrils out spicy. The hollandaise was spot on, and the hash browns were crispy. Overall, a really good start to looking at a new place. The ambience was relaxed and you can tell it's a place regulars go. Coffee is fresh, and the bathrooms are clean...this is a place I'm recommending absolutely. read more

I love diners. And this place definitely have that old diner feel. As soon as I sat down, I saw a big sign said CASH ONLY. Luckily they had an ATM machine however something was wrong with the chip on my card. I decided to leave. However they said I could use my credit card and order through Doordash but instead do a "pickup." So I did ended up sitting back down but had a few issues with the entire online process (not the diner's fault). Essentially I ended up "working" for the meal since it took a good 15 minutes to get things through. The food was serviceable. I had corned beef hash with eggs and English muffin (which was soaked in margarine or butter). The coffee was a bit watered down...not the usual standard good diner coffee. I felt a little gross after eating. I probably would not come back here again. I guess I just don't understand the 5 star reviews. Parking was plentiful and easy to find in the back. read more
