Decided to come here for Sunday brunch with my girlfriend. Ordered a single pancake with chocolate chips and granola, Jake's sandwich, and the burro. As for beverages, I ordered 'the spicy' bloody Mary and the fresh squeezed grapefruit juice. The food and drinks tasted great, not too salty (which is something my girlfriend always complains about) and cooked perfectly. We were seated at the bar tables facing the window. I'd say that the only reason we didn't give 5/5 is because the seats were uncomfortable and we weren't given a choice on seating. Despite that, the service was excellent and the restaurant had a 'young' vibe. The decor is modern and aesthetically pleasing too! #vegetarianfriendly
So to start our day we found this Rustic/Industrial with a spalsh of modern vibed Breakfast café. Initial impressed was extreme clean and well kept. The café was hoppin' w/ great lighting, extremely friendly staff, and just an overall happy vibe. We were seated immediately without delay (About 9am we arrived on a saturday). Now for the best part obviously... the moment you've all been waiting for... THE FOOD!!! The mouth watering, stomach loving, and delicious smelling food was served within about 10 minutes of ordering. The food was absolutely astonishing! The food had marvelous flavor and plated very well. We purchased Blue Berry Butter Milk Pancake (1), French Toast (3), and one of their Breakfast Sandwiches ("giant" english muffin w/ bacon, egg, and cheese(1)). We also added on pure maple syrup for about 1.50$(2). At first I wished we got more pure malpe syrup (came in small "diping sause-ish" clear plastic cups with a lid on top #Covid-19Friendly) but later thinking about it I completely understand pure maple syrup is super experience and in the end I had a perfect amount for my meal. I was definitely getting looks from other tables because of how I was just devouring and pile driving my food.... HAHA! It was a little pricey... but! I'll pay pricey for high quality food any day!!
Other cool stuff to note:
The plates were made out of an bamboo which is definitely an environmently friendly material. All staff and employees were wearing masks. Unsure but assuming the utensils were more environmently friendly (didnt seem to be like normal plastic)- which were wrapped with a large disposable napkin and sealed with the "Jake's at The Mill" logo/design.
Only thing I wish is that they added more blueberries in the pancake! But that doesn't effect my experience, taste, or general review of this small, beautiful little café.
If you dont go here then SHAME... ON... YOU... haha!!! Highly recomnend!!!
Awesome breakfast experience. The food is really fresh and well crafted. They also use a lot of compostable and green materials for their utensils and eating supplies, which I think is a great environmental initiative. They also have really tasty alcoholic morning beverages.
The Korean kimchi burrito is worth it to come back here again and again. Just perfect yummy- ness!
I’m also a sucker for perfect poached eggs.... winner! Done to perfection.
The team is awesome friendly and extremely helpful.
First time eating brunch in a long time and Jake’s did not disappoint!!!! The egg bowl with pulled pork is absolutely amazing. Such a hidden gem with a cute location and delicious food, UMass kids can take the 33 to summer st and be right here :)
Quick service despite the crowd. I had the special shrimp&grits and creole sauce was amazing and shrimps were cooked well. Grits were rich but a bit heavy towards the end. Overall, I'm quite satisfied
Love this cute brunch place especially because of its pork belly Benedict that’s my favorite here for years! The French toast with whipped cream is a must try dessert!
Excellent menu. The pork belly benedict is particularly good. Ditto the soups. Wonderful friendly service. Fantastic place for breakfast or lunch.
Food was presented nicely on a tray. Egg and cheese breakfast sandwich wasnt very good, tasted very bland and kinda made me feel blegh afterwards.
The PANCAKES at Jake’s are absolutely the best I have ever had the pleasure of consuming. Jake’s pancake chef needs an award for such pancake Awesomeness!
