    Stuffed French toast
    Queen B.

    This was my very first time at Keke's and Donte was my server. We had excellent service. The turkey sausage was cold in the middle but Sonte quickly replaced my sad pale sausage with some crispy bacon. I ordered the strawberry stuffed French Toast and it was the perfect start to my day. I highly recommend that you visit early if not, be prepared to wait for a table.

    Good food
    Matthew B.

    Some mornings just feel like a reward for showing up in life--and this was one of them. A mountain of crispy bacon piled next to perfectly seasoned potatoes loaded with melty cheese and smoky goodness--every bite tasted like someone in that kitchen actually cared about your morning. The French toast was golden, buttery, dusted in powdered sugar, and paired with a scoop of butter that melted into happiness. Hot sauce options ready for action, strong diner coffee poured without asking, and ice water keeping pace--simple things done exceptionally well. No pretension. No nonsense. Just comfort food that reminds you why breakfast is the most hopeful meal of the day. If you're having a tough week--this place will fix it. I left full, happy, caffeinated...

    Combo plates banana, pecan, Carmel French toast and apple cinnamon French toast. 2/23/26
    Michelle T.

    What a yummy breakfast! Started off with Peach Bellini, very simple but delicious. Love the fact you can get a combo with any flavor of pancake, waffle or French toast (1 or 2 pieces) with eggs and meat. Eggs cooked perfectly and the banana, pecan, caramel French toast was perfection. Service was prompt and our hostess was very attentive. Clean and loved the booth concept as it really tones down all the conversations (was packed for Sunday breakfast). Definitely recommend for a very wonderful breakfast. Need to come back and try lunch.

    Cheese Steak Omelet
    Jennifer T.

    We went to Keke's for lunch and had a short wait, but once our name was called, we were seated right away. Our server greeted us promptly, took our drink order, and gave us plenty of time to look over the menu. When she brought our drinks, I told her I couldn't decide what to order and asked for her recommendation. She suggested the steak omelet with home potatoes and a side of cinnamon roll pancakes--and let me tell you, it was one of the best meals I've ever had at Keke's! Our server was fantastic--she kept our drinks filled, checked in often, and even made sure we were all set after we'd paid and lingered at the table chatting for a bit. If you're not sure what to order, definitely give the steak omelet a try. You won't be disappointed!

    Chicken salad with cold fried chicken
    Sylvia W.

    This is a very disappointing review that I'm writing. First, we were told 10 minute wait time. We were seated rather quickly. The restaurant was busy but not too busy. The waitress was very nice and polite. Our order was taken quickly too. I ordered make my own combo 2 French toast eggs and bacon. He order a fried chicken salad. Here's where it went down hill. They did not have Dr Pepper and the Root Beer was not good. They didn't have clean knives due to dishwasher issues. We were given plastic silverware to use the knives. The food took a very long time to arrive. By the time the food arrived, his chicken was cold. They cooked him some fresh chicken. By the time he got his chicken for his salad, I was finished with my breakfast. The waitress was very sympathetic and kept checking on us. I am writing this review while he is eating. He is so disappointed, we may not return.

    Great breakfast and lunch menu!! So good. We tried the omlette and salad along with cheesy grits!! So yummy!!

    Blueberry Pancakes, scrambled eggs and bacon.

    The ambiance was nice. The wait was short. Greeted very politely. The lighting was nice. The decor was on point. It was a bit warm in there, but it was a hot day. We had Jill as a server and wow was she entertaining. We will definitely sit in her section again. The menu was what you would expect from a breakfast place. I had the blueberry pancakes with bacon and scrambled eggs. It was delicious. We will definitely be eating here again soon.

    Apple cinnamon waffle
    Brittaney Z.

    Sat down right away. We ordered drinks and our food. I had ordered a hot tea but she didn't bring sugar, I had to ask for it. And she only brought one kind not even sugar substitutes. Once we got our food, we had to ask for utensils, they should have been at the table or brought with food. The food was not amazing just ok. Our server acted like she was either rushed or not fully there. Even if you're having a bad day, you don't show it to your customers. It wasn't super busy, but it also wasn't dead. I gave the vibe of relaxing brunch place.

    Oops, started to eat before I took a photo of the Southwest Omelet....
    Riki C.

    This was such a bland breakfast, and I was starving so I was shook it didn't just light up my tastebuds! The omelette has jalapenos and onion but I was surprised the jalapeños were canned jalapeños and not fresh. Very mediocre but the service was decent. Probably won't be back, but not made about giving it a chance

    While I was out of town, I skimmed yelp for a breakfast food options. I picked the right place! The food here was delicious! I was highly impressed. My server was amazing. I really wished I wrote her name down. She helped us create alternate options for our meals as the kitchen was out of a few ingredients. I believe this was so because it was close to closing time. The atmosphere is one of a diner. We were able to be seated right away. If I travel back to Jacksonville, I will definitely be back.

    2 Pancake Keke's Special
    Kylie J.

    One of my favorite brunch spots! Their food and service is always amazing! We love the town center location so we can hit Hobby Lobby right after haha. If you're not sure what to get their seasonal options are always a must.

    BLT
    Bradley L.

    Absolutely the worst food ever. And was charged over $50 for breakfast 84 year old mother wouldn't even eat any of her BLT. Was here for two hours. Would not go to this keke's. EVER! One more thing make sure you ask is there a up charge for that, $50.00 for a BLT AND FRENCH TOAST. Management should be a dishwasher. Clueless NEVER EVER AGAIN!

    Sausage and cheese omelet, grilled potato slices, toast, strawberry jam.
    Ruben L.

    I decided to go to this location for breakfast, being that I was in the area. Parking was slightly difficult to find this morning and I had to wait a couple of minutes for an available parking spot. But, it's nothing new, it's the Town Centwr area traffic. I decided to order one of their omelets. I decided to have their sausage and cheese omelet. That omelet was very good and flavorful. I also decided to Grilled potato slices to go along with the omelet. Those potato slices were very good and flavorful as well. I also had toast and strawberry jam as well. The service was good today. If I'm in this general area again, I'll make to visit again.

And in the center is a huge TV where they play sports programming from their region. Pretty much all of the customers are Albanian, so you get some stairs coming in. The owner is cordial and makes your food/drinks quickly. I've actually never tried the food since I always come here full, but the coffee is good and reasonably priced.

You can tell they take their beans and roasting seriously. The espresso drinks are smooth, rich, and full of flavor without being overly bitter. They also have a nice selection of specialty drinks if you're in the mood to try something a little different. They offer a good variety of breakfast items and pastries as well, which pair perfectly with the coffee. Everything tastes fresh and well prepared--simple but done right. Another thing I appreciated was the friendly service. The staff is welcoming and efficient, and the overall energy of the place feels very positive. It's also convenient that they have a drive-thru if you're in a hurry. All in all, Brass Tacks Coffee is one of those local spots that keeps people coming back. Great coffee, good food, and a relaxed environment make it an easy recommendation if you're in the Jacksonville Southside area.

Most of us ended up trying their seasonal matcha drink which was a linzer matcha that came with black cherry and a pistachio cold foam. It has a specific taste but I liked it a lot! It's not a mix of flavors I'd normally think of but I ended up finishing my drink which I don't always do, even with matcha drinks. The croissants & bread were fresh and each dish was beautifully plated. I love a dish that both looks good and tastes good and it delivered both. The outdoor patio is covered and a great spot to enjoy your meal if the weather is beautiful and breezy which is was the day we dined here. The inside is also such a cute vibe. Such a great spot and will definitely be back if I'm in the area!
