Jelly Cafe - Mount Prospect

Every once in a while you find a place that just does everything right. Since I drive a lot for work, I love to stop in and try small restaurants when I'm out and about. They seem to try harder than the large national chains. Jelly Cafe in Mount Prospect is my new favorite spot. Clean and nicely decorated it has a very relaxed and inviting atmosphere. Their menu offers something for everyone. The food was brought out piping hot and was absolutely delicious. Service however is even more important to me and the star of the show at Jelly Cafe is their server, Rachel. She instantly made me feel like I was welcome and that she truly appreciated me stopping in. I really appreciate when a server smiles and actually cares about the people that are there. If you are looking for a nice place that offers a large selection of great food options AND also cares you are there...give Jelly Cafe a try!!

For my meal, I ordered the Avocado Bacon Omelet. This was a four-egg omelet, but it wasn’t quite what I expected. The omelet was a blended mix of ingredients, resulting in a green color and a very fluffy texture. While it was certainly unique, it didn’t quite capture the distinct flavors of the avocado and bacon. There was a significant amount of chopped red pepper mixed in and a nice layer of melted mozzarella on top. The omelet came with diced breakfast potatoes, which were very flavorful. Instead of toast or pancakes, I chose the fruit, which was also fresh and delicious. Our waitress was very friendly; although we didn’t catch her name, she did a great job. Additionally, the food came out quicker than I anticipated, which was a nice surprise. A highlight for me was the large glass bottles of water available at each table, allowing for easy access without needing to request refills. Overall, I would definitely consider returning to Jelly Cafe in the future.

This restaurant is definitely a fantastic spot for breakfast. I just visited for the first time today, and the staff was incredibly friendly throughout my experience. My wonderful waitress, Rachel, recommended the jelly French toast, which was simply delicious. Her service alone deserves five stars. I will definitely be returning. Everything from the food to the atmosphere was excellent!

The restaurant is a lovely and peaceful spot with reasonable prices and excellent service. We ordered two cappuccinos, strawberry and banana crepes, peach and cinnamon crepes, and a glass of milk from the kids' menu, and the total came to about $40.

My husband and I had a wonderful experience with our waitress, Rachel. She provided exceptional customer service and guided us in making our menu choices. The food was fantastic. We highly recommend this restaurant!
