I used to live closer but now I'm about a half-hour away. My times there are always special. Family run small cafe, bottomless cup of coffee AND they actually fill it up. Prices are awesome. I love getting soup with my meal and it doesn't...Read More

Parking is greatThere always seems to have kids in there. I've never encountered a crying child in here. They have a big chalkboard near the ladies room for the kidsThere are two doors that open easily, if you have someone with you, they can go in and ask for assistance with the doors. No stairs at all. First door opens widely to outside.

The Staff is incredibly friendly. I have been working in the area and have been there almost every morning for breakfast. Everything I have had has been great. The specials are always different. Everything is fast and tasty even special request orders.

Great hometown diner feel with wonderful service, good selection, and fair prices. Perfect for a casual meal. It also has an open kitchen and we were impressed by its cleanliness and it appeared to be very well run.

Best place for a great meal. Breakfast lunch or a snack, J&T's serves up wonderful food, fast service in an atmosphere where everyone knows your name. Could not recommend J&T's highly enough.
