Jam Cafe

I've been a fan of Jam Cafe for years, but I have to say that the portions have decreased in size, especially the size of the hash browns that accompany many breakfast items. The other down side to breakfast here is the coffee - so awful. Please change suppliers and this coffee (Drum Roasters) is really not great.

Shocking treatment 8:10am 20 March. We are visitors from Australia, and got up early to try this place. However, we received disgusting treatment upon arrival. Staff need to learn to be respectful, polite and not treat customers like cattle at the doorway.

Honestly, one of the best breakfast house I visited. The food is just unbeatable in portion and taste, prices are more than fair for the quality of the options. I’ve been to both locations (Vancouver and Victoria) and they have the same delicious menu. Something frustrating about Jam Cafe (both locations) is the waiting line. I had two unfortunate situations where I got to the line and they told us the cafe wouldn’t be able to serve us food considering their closing time. I have waited 80 minutes to be seated because we needed a table for 4. I won’t ever understand what’s behind the no-reservations policy while customers have to wait easily 1 hour for a table on weekends. Besides this excruciating wait time, Jam is one of my favourite places to have brunch. I get there every time I forget how long the line was last time or any time I am not hungry (yet).

Jam Cafe was a delightful brunch experience. They have a diverse menu. We ordered the Fried Chicken Benedict , it combines the richness of perfectly poached eggs with the crispiness of fried chicken and the Banana & Walnut Waffle was exceptional, it provides a sweet and nutty indulgence, with each bite offering a delightful combination of textures. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, making it an ideal spot to enjoy a leisurely brunch with friends or family. Overall, Victoria Jam Cafe impresses with its delicious dishes and charming atmosphere, making it a must-visit for brunch enthusiasts in the area.

It's fine.... nothing extraordinary

The food was incredibly delicious, my new favourite spot in Victoria. I wish I knew about this 12 years ago. Hands down best breakfast in Victoria.

Easily one of the Top 5 best breakfast spots in Victoria!! 5/5 for food, service, and atmosphere!!! Must go!! There is a little bit of a wait time but totally worth it!!!

Great food! Huge sizes! We tried different things pork belly eggs Benedict, veggie bowl and french toast and they were all awesome! Eggs Benedict are great and big for one person, but I would say bowls are for two, they're huge! French toast is a mots I would say, we tried the apple one and it was unbelievable! The waiting times are a bit long but I would say they are worth it. It would be better if you could write your name down and come back, but still is good. Buttermilk biscuits are very good and special too. Definitely a great place for breakfast/brunch! Vegetarian options: They have a great deal of vegetarian options. There are also vegan options. Dietary restrictions: A lot of gluten free options Parking: Not to many spots to park, but if you park 3-4 streets down (getting further away from DT) there is 2h free parking Wheelchair accessibility: They're in street level floors
