Hungry Jacks Cafe — Restaurant in Enderby

Hungry Jacks is an Enderby standard for us locals. The food is good. The staff is happy, energetic and kind. The atmosphere is homey and welcoming. I frequent the place for breakfast mostly and occasionally lunch.

The other day, I overheard the staff talking about the new banana cream pie that the cooks had just finished. I heard one waitress say "Gee, how can we give an honest and valid recommendation about this pie if we have not had a chance to taste it! We ought to do something about that."

Behind the counter, everyone agreed that this was a good idea.

One other customer and I had overheard the conversation and I piped up. "Thats a really good idea! You probably need some independent reviews a well! "

Five minutes later one of the staff showed up with a dolup of this incredible pie. It was fresh that morning, thick and creamy. It was even a little bit warm from the oven. It was so good!

Every once in a while the chef comes up with special treats. They are an act of love. Love for her work, a giving back to the customers. Something beyond the basics to tantalize everyone gifted with the opportunity to partake.

A while back she made up some incredible pastry consiting of cherry and cream cheese. I am waiting for that one to come around again.

There is the standard fare that they serve and it is all great! But I love this personal and special touch that sometimes graces their menu. It goes along with the personal touch and neighborly care of the staff toward us locals. Its a place like the old show "Cheers" where everybody...

To the reader, I'm from Calgary. I'm in Enderby for three nights visiting family.

I woke up this morning (staying at the Howard Johson) and walked the 2.8 Km's for a Tims dark roast. Halfway back to the hotel I took the first sip of my coffee... or should I say, "brown water".

So... I "GOOGLED" (coffee shop near me) and found Hungry Jack's. I need a proper coffee ASAP.

Off to Jack's I went... ordered a cappuccino. The coffee was so amazing (and the food from the kitchen smelled just as) that I walked back to my hotel, organized my 9 other family members and came back for Breakfast.

I terrible coffee experience at Tims (nice staff though) is what led me to GOOGLE (not search Yelp) for coffee, which led me to Hungry Jacks. The great coffee and aroma of delicious food led me BACK to Jack's with 9 others.

THAT's the power of great coffee.

As for Hungry Jack's... I had the Hungry Jack's breakfast - eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, Russian Rye toast and added an avocado. DEE-LISH.

Our server, Tracey... man, can she read a crowd. She was terrific with our group. Service was quick, delivery was less than 10min, every order was correct, and the family had a great time.

I don't know if the local town folk know how great the food and service is here but let me just say, "First class".

Thank you to all the team at Hungry Jack's - you made all of us (Calgary, Prince George, Bellingham) feel so welcome.

I come through this area at least once a year and for certain I'll be back with my...

Stopped in to Hungry Jacks on our way to Kelowna from Revelstoke for lunch. This diner has got anything you’d want along with daily specials, homemade pastries, and a bright inviting atmosphere. We ordered the BLT with caesar salad (they have homemade dressing) and the chicken club sandwich with their daily special Greek potatoes. Everything was amazing!

Docked a star for service only because our food took a bit longer than what would be typical and I would have liked to ask for a bit more sauce for my sandwich as it was a bit on the dry side (for MY liking; I love sauce so I am typically more partial to having more sauce than normal, I wouldn’t say the sandwich itself was actually dry) but our server didn’t come around to check in on us or see if we needed anything before we’d finished up and were ready to go.

Wouldn’t hesitate to come back! There is a lot more on the menu I’d...
