Super yummy breakfast! We got the breakfast sandwich one with ham and the other with sausage. Ham sliced thin and lots of it. Got it to go. Took no time at all. The eggs in the sandwich were delicious. I highly recommend going here. Especially like supporting small businesses. read more

Nice place. Sad she doesn't bake pies in January and in the afternoon don't expect any homemade cinnamon rolls to be available... pregnant lady sad. food was ok. Came out hot. Seattle Seahawks fans, ask about the memorabilia on the wall. read more

See all

As the owner of kjs cafe I can assure you we are not closed. The individual who posted on Yelp that we were closed should have read the door. It clearly stated we were closed Sept. 5 thru the 10th for VACATION!!!!! We are open 7 days a week! 6:30am to 3:00pm Monday thru Saturday, 6:30 am to 2:00pm on sunday. Thank you for all the great reviews! John and kim, owners kjs cafe read more

This place is exactly what a road side cafe should be. Surly cook in the bad yelling about people ordering salads for breakfast. What looks like 3 generations of men running the front. REAL HOMEMADE HASH, none of that canned crap. Salty and delicious. I had the grilled chicken salad (much to cookie's dismay, lol) it was the best I've had in a Looooonnnggg time, PERFECTLY marinaded chicken grilled and fresh on a bed of freshly chopped romaine and vine ripened tomatoes. HIGHLY RECOMMEND, EVEN FOR BREAKFAST!!! Boyfriend got the Hash, OM eggs, wheat toast with a side of bacon. He gave me a "perfect bite" and it was a homemade greasy spoon dream!! I don't think you can go wrong eating here if you get a chance! read more

Really cute place in the middle of nowhere. Great food served hot and fast. Cool place. Would recommend if you are driving through definitely stop. read more

I'm writing this review because one of the gentlemen who runs this place is an absolute delight and let me hang out at the counter drinking some coffee--very pleasant to talk to. Definitely stop here if you are passing through! read more

Stopped here for breakfast before heading to Crater Lake. Nice small shop with great service. The food is good, just your normal breakfast items, I got pancakes, eggs and sausage. The guys working here are super nice and friendly and helped us out with directions to Crater Lake. The restaurant opens at 630AM and closes at 10PM, and is conveniently next to a gas station and across the street from Dawson Lodge! read more

Ya just can't beat the hospitality of small town restaurants. We were greeted with a smile and treated like family. The Chef even came out to refill my coffee. Had the chicken fried steak, eggs, hash browns and toast. Downed it and ready for a great day of riding the bike. We'll be back read more

Husband and I stopped here for some breakfast. Man who was serving wasn't friendly--didn't welcome us or say anything, threw a couple menus down on the table and asked "what do you want?" when getting orders. He seemed annoyed we were there. I get that might be his style, which would be understandable, especially being in a small town, but we noticed he was much friendlier to others who came in, so that made us uncomfortable. After reading some of the reviews can't help but wonder if he was being racist as my husband is Native American. Food was simple but decent; I would reconsider coming here though, especially if you're a person of color. read more

Stopped by Monday the 15th of August as we were returning home, ordered two very simple meals, a pancake and an omelet; the omelet comes with toast and hash browns. Besides us there were four people at two other tables there for a meal; the people behind us had already been served. Well, we got a pancake and an omelet, perhaps the ugliest, greasiest omelet ever. I asked about the toast and hash browns and the young man said, oh they're not done yet. They weren't done for another ten minutes. My husband asked for some syrup. It arrived a few minutes later. The pancake had been cut to check for doneness by the cook. The pancake was the consistency of a soaked and wrung out sponge, and flavorless. My toast and hash browns arrived on a new plate. The hash browns were hot, salty and greasy, but an identifiable flavor as the omelet had none, and the toast too was on the blander side of bland...it's toast, but really? At one point the cook came out of the kitchen to bring something to the table next to us that had been forgotten from their meal. He told us that he had asked the boy if we wanted hash browns and toast but he had said no. I wouldn't recommend this cafe. It has just reopened as KJ's after having been a number of other cafes. There are 2 TV's on, and flashing sign that says "Hey, hey, hey, we have beer" and the bathrooms are down the stairs in what is an opening scene to many a horror movie; the women's was clean enough; my husband said the men's was a disaster -- and he's a fleet sailor who traveled the world, and seen some disastrous bathrooms. read more

Nice stop after our trip from Crater Lake. Good food with nice portion, great service. You should stop here if you are passing through!

A really charming roadside café in the great American style. Very rural decor which makes it feel very authentic. The food was quite decent, and the staff were very kind and seem to care a lot about their restaurant. I'd recommend it if you're hungry! read more

Decent food, clean, friendly owner. Sign says wheel cafe or something...so look for sidewalk sign.

This was a great stop on the way to Crater Lake. The hospitality was excellent! We were warmly greeted and sat and promptly waited on. Our orders were a bit jumbled, but quickly fixed. The food was really good. My husband says the Café Burger was the best he's ever had. Definitely get dessert. The pies are all homemade. We had raspberry pie Ala mode which was super good. Their cinnamon rolls are also supposed to be amazing, but we didn't try it. In all, a great roadside stop. read more

WOW so great I loved it, my pancakes were amazingly yummy and the bacon was so good really wish I lived near it. I've never had a better pancake it was SO Fluffy and moist it was great really should stop there for breakfast or lunch read more

Amazing breakfast! We stopped here on our way back to California and I'm glad we did. If you're hungry and in this area, stop here! You'll be glad you did. I had the chicken fried steak with hash browns. It was so so good! read more

AMAZING!!! The burgers were DELICIOUS!! Owner let us come in even though they were closing in 20 min. Great food, wish there was something like this back home!! read more

Stopped by this place on the way to crater lake. Amazing breakfast and lunch menu and lovely service. Would love to come back again! read more

Had a great lunch with the best service. Pastrami was amazing and they made our family feel at home.

Great food, super friendly owner, support this business! We called in an order for breakfast takeout while camping nearby, it really hit the spot! Perfectly cooked eggs, crispy bacon. read more

This restaurant IS NOT CLOSED! I was there this morning and had a delicious breakfast. Whoever is putting this cafe as closed needs to have their Yelp account deactivated. read more

This is the spot to get a burger. Crispy bacon, juicy meat the flavor is out of this world. If you are traveling through the 97 this is a great place to stop and eat. read more

We had some of the best hamburgers we've ever had here at KJ's Cafe. The meat is fresh, the buns were toasted with a touch of butter, and the add-ons to the burger were tasty. The price of your burger is determined by how many add-ons you select. The price remains reasonable, though, even with three or four additions. The fries were hot and crispy on the outside and a little soft on the inside. Perfect! I wish they were closer to home! read more

Honestly really nice people fast food, pretty good food love pancake with bacon and eggs.

We stopped here for breakfast yesterday - and it was great! The pancakes were fluffy and cake like, the bacon delicious, and the coffee was very good too. The guys running it were very friendly, and it was busy and clean. Very clean restrooms too. read more

Kj's Cafe - A really cool roadside cafe - Cafes Near Me - Chemult, Oregon

Moderate food but very traditional interior. Very funny announcement plates on sale near the restroom. Cool staff.

We arrived here around 11:45am and the older man who seated us and served us was really nice. I ordered the pancake, sausage, and eggs with a cup of coffee. My boyfriend ordered the Angus beef steak, hash browns, eggs, and toast with a cup of coffee as well. Both meals were super yummy! I highly recommend coming in around noon for good service. They close super early, around 2pm or 3pm which is kind of inconvenient. But they do open around 6am which is nice for the early birds. read more

Excellent service. We had veggie sandwich and French fries it was tasty. Service was late but it's worth to wait .Washrooms were clean .

Good breakfast, burgers and customer service. I went there twice for lunch and breakfast while visiting crater lake.

Although it looks a little questionable from outside, we were pleasantly surprised in finding a great family lunch spot. It was not an inexpensive stop, but worth checking out. The tea was fresh, the soft drinks were perfectly bubbly and the homemade chicken noodle soup was delicious! And everyone wanted a bite of my turkey club sandwich. read more

DO NOT EAT HERE. I would not recommend this place to anybody. As soon as we walk in the gentleman tells me they close in 20 minutes I still took a seat since they close at 3 and not 2:40. My wife went to the restroom and well she's gone he asks if we are ready to order.(I haven't even sat down or looked at the menu btw) And he just stood there looking at us the entire time. Drinks tasted flat. And the food is horrible. I got a chilli burger and my wife got a pastrami sandwich (DO NOT ORDER THAT!!) IT ALL TASTED LIKE IT CAME OUT OF A CAN NOT TO MENTION I ENDED UP THROWING UP THE BURGER THE NEXT MORNING AND MY WIFE IS SICK AS WELL. IF YOU NEED FOOD DON'T STOP HERE. GO TO SUBWAY. read more

Great for a hearty breakfast. Disappointment: My English muffin seemed to have been cooked on the griddle along with the rest of the breakfast so it tasted like sausages instead of butter. Redemption: the guy who served us was so friendly I didn't care. read more

Loved this place! Fast and friendly service plus, great food! The cook even came out and asked us how our meals were. Definitely would come back and recommend! read more

Don't go here. They must be managed very poorly. We showed up on a Monday at 2 p.m. and were turned away because they are out of food.

Understaffed and the owner has no personality whatsoever. He walked by and slapped down the menus in a rush. Food was sub standard, pricey and very small portions. Club sandwich was like no other club sandwich, it just looked like a regular turkey sandwich. We thought that maybe since this place was busy, it would be good. Found out that this is the 0nly place around. Subway is right next door, go there instead!! Do yourself a favor and skip this place!!! read more

We had been traveling for some 300 miles since our last stop on the way through Oregon when we came across this gem. Unfortunately for us, we hit this spot right as the owner was closing (4pm). We were badly in need of a quick rest break and some beverage. The owner realized our plight that we were from out-of-state passing through, and promptly told us "Yes I am closing, but I'll feed you!". We were elated with such kindness to stay open a little bit longer. All we needed was a quick restroom break and some coffee. He gave us the last he had (still fresh) and we were on our way! I do wish we could have eaten here too as the reviews are very good. Perhaps next time. Definitely a very nice place and friendly atmosphere, so we were very grateful :) read more

Friendly staff, good food, and the perfect pit stop en route to Crater Lake. Get the patty melt - yum! Save room for pie.

Great selection of food with friendly & quick service! Plus great travel tips. Unique atmosphere.

Excellent food and service. Never a half cuppa. Eggs just the way I ordered them..mild scramble. No tough eggs here. Chicken fried steak tender, gravy excellent flavor. BUT BEWARE. Restrooms are down a flight of stairs. Pretty bad trip for COPD. Use the Pilot station for relief. read more

Stopped for lunch. Had burger dry with lettuce tomato pickles. Cooked perfect, was yummy. Hubs had cheese burger with ham, egg, and lettuce with mayo. Good food! read more
