Jack & Lois - Hamilton, Ontario

They serve breakfast all day - can't go wrong with that!! Sandwiches and burgers look fantastic. Staff is friendly and accommodating. They have a large patio out back with access off of the side street . Their front room is very vintage. The menu has something for everyone. ... They have an extensive bar and make a really good ceaser. Parking can sometimes be difficult along James but there are a few paid lota if you don't mind walking a couple blocks. Read more

First visit early on a Saturday, the restaurant was full so my date and I sat on the patio. It was a bit chilly that day and it took a while to be served and then longer for the food to arrive. Although that might have been a setup for a ... disappointing experience, the food came through big time! I had the "Chicken Little" - saucy fried chicken on waffles, with the Mac and Cheese with lobster as my side. Amazingly delicious!! Great portion. Free coffee refills was a definite plus while out on the patio. The waitress was super friendly and checked on us often. I was surprised by the bill - it was incredibly affordable for the quality of the food. I was expecting to pay a lot more for all that delicious taste. I went back only a few days later for Mother's Day. On the phone they advised to avoid the peak hours to avoid any wait, and it worked. Coming in around 3pm it was comfortable and we received some complimentary chips during the wait for our food. This will definitely be a regular spot for me! Read more

Great place to eat. The prices are very good for the portion of food you get. I ordered the Captain Mac and Cheese which is the lobster mac and cheese. It was very tasty, cheese and baked. The bacon pieces on the meal was to die for. I have also ... tried the sandwiches in the past and they have all been very tasty. Really great food at this location and restaurant is dressed to look like an old school diner. Very unique place to eat. Would come back 100 %! Read more

Came here in the summer for the first time and this place was fantastic, the food was delicious. The Mac and cheese was amazing, probably some of the best I've had but definately a heart attack but for this dish that's what it should be. The doors were open so there ... was an amazing breeze in the restaurant and the service was great. I had read the reviews before I went so I expected a bit of a long wait and that held true. Fortunately they had great beers on tap and we had some chips to snack on as we waited. Overall, as long as you have the time for a relaxed meal, it's worth the wait. Read more

So amazing! I've gone a few times now and keep bringing others with me. The decor, prices, service, and food are all perfect! Make sure you go with an appetite, because they don't hold back on portions! lol!
