It seems like everything they have on the menu is delicious! Salmon sandwich for breakfast - so fresh, soft, and melting in the mouth. Fresh squeezed OJ can't be any better! Very nice personnel!!

Erika Perzi

Although not on the menu , excellent flat white - best in JC. Ordered egg and cheese on ciabatta plus chicken , it’s my favorite brekkie in town !

Amanda Petrocelli McLean

Most amazing soy latte that I've ever had in my entire life. Egg scramble hit the spot. Biscuits and gravy = phenomenal...

Christine DaCruz

All good things. The coffee , the food, the staff . Come for the food and stay for the conversation. Love this neighborhood spot , also is the coffee cup, beautiful design ❤️

SKW

One of the best breakfast/brunch in Jersey City! The biscuit and sausage gravy is the most delicious I've had outside of Nashville.

Raj

Great food and atmosphere. If there's a line , it's worth the wait even though it doesn't take long. Everyone is very friendly .

Grace Martin

Was in a rush so I got a cappuccino and basic egg/bacon sandwich . Wow. Blown away. And the staff is so friendly . I will be back for sure✌

Mark Joseph

The best restaurant in Jersey City when you consider both price (beyond reasonable!), location (it couldn't be on a more quaint street!), and taste (OUT OF THIS FREAKIN' WORLD!).

Adam Mack

Everything on the menu is outstanding plus the coffee is amazing. And the service is top notch! You have to check this place out. I will be back next year when I visit!!

Snooty Waiter

Chicken and waffles had good flavor but I'm thinking their waffles are cooked at the beginning of shift. I'd have em again but right at opening. The owner is off the wall in a great way.

Amy Johnson Cook

Smoked Gouda Scramble melts in your mouth and is amazing. Portions are just the right size and you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Great service as well .

Staffan Holmgren

Great Café and very nice staff . Free WiFi access and a great breakfast selection . Try the "weekender" with a cup of hte house blend . A great start of the day.

Djaniella D.

Tight space but super friendly staff . Give the biscuits & sausage gravy a try!

Michelle Lora

Omg omg omg, the brunch here is phenomenal. They serve stumptown coffee which already is an a+ in my book . They cater to vegetarians . Not very vegan friendly but there are ways around the menu.

Daniel Salcedo

Great coffee and the food is awesome. My favorite breakfast spot in jersey city. Try the garden .

Rebecca Miller

Start out with the Amy's Bread Basket , the pig out on the cherrywood bacon , it's crispy and delicious. More on sam a.m. favorites here: http://bit.ly/1hBGNNe

Although typically open for breakfast and lunch only, Sam AM offers a reservation-only Thursday supper club. Menus change each week, but it's well worth the visit.

Cassandra Kimsey

1 - The Gouda scramble has changed my life. 2 - The homemade pumpkin ice cream croissant is incredible. #youarewhatyoueat #gouda #icecream #delicious

Greg Corra

Great coffee . The classic breakfast sandwich is good, but not worth waiting a half-hour for. Try this spot when it’s less busy

Brandon Lloyd

delicious little JC gem. everything is fresh and home made - especially loved their biscuit !

Cute new addition to Paulus hook! The coffee is great and the service is friendly . It is a little pricey and the space is small.

The Classic breakfast sandwich , mushroom gravy & biscuits & mascarpone donuts . Also got to meet Sam & Chef Francis????

Virginie Henry-Dise

Have a bread basket with a delicious apple cider donut , buttery and salty biscuit and croissant - it comes with butter and raspberry jan

Nice atmosphere, plus you can't go wrong with Stumptown coffee . I believe they will offer breakfast when they officially open.
