Jimmy's Place Restaurant — Restaurant in Coquitlam

My initial infatuation with Jimmy's has developed into a lasting relationship.

I have a thing for corner stores and diners so the outdated (but clean) decor pleases me greatly. It may not be a 'trendy' spot but I see clientele from every walk of life when I eat here. Families, students, professionals on lunch etc.

There is always a gentleman manning the grill and three other kind ladies who assist. I am dying to know if the man IS "Jimmy" and am working up my courage to ask.

The breakfasts are fabulous. Everything from eggs benny to pancakes are well made and not greasy as with so many other diners. Recently I had chicken salad sandwiches with pea soup that tasted like a comforting meal at a friend's place. The burgers are a treat. I am always surprised by how quickly the food arrives after ordering!

I come here to do business, study, finish a half-completed crossword started by another customer, contemplate the family dynamics in cartoons... There is no rush here. Pick a booth, feel free to relax and refill your coffee or water as you wish.

Stepping into Jimmy’s Place Restaurant in Coquitlam feels like being transported back to a simpler time. The atmosphere exudes a comfortable, home-style diner vibe, reminiscent of a past era when dining out was all about enjoying good food in a welcoming setting.

The service begins with a self-serve system where you go up to order your meal, with a well-laid-out menu making it easy to choose your favorites. I opted for the three-ingredient omelet with cheese, ham, and mushrooms, while my friend went for a sandwich. The staff, always smiling, contributed to the family-like atmosphere, making us feel right at home.

Now, let’s talk about the food. The three-ingredient omelet was a standout, featuring perfectly scrambled eggs, just the right amount of ham, and delicious cheese. It came with a side of hash browns – perfectly fried and shredded – along with toast and strawberry jam. It was one of the best omelets I’ve ever had. Adding a bit of ketchup elevated the meal even further. Overall, there were no negatives to mention. The food was top-notch, making Jimmy’s Place an ideal spot for anyone seeking a classic “greasy spoon” dining experience.
