Jigger's Diner

Such a lovely place! The place has history and is located in town. The girls are friendly, kind, and smiling. Everything you like to find when you go out to eat. The food is simple and well-cooked. I had beautiful breakfast the bacon was cooked in the oven with conscience, not burned like most times. The coffee you can choose different quality and is refilled several times. The prices are honest and fair. I highly recommend this place and if I'm back in the area, I won't forget to stop by again.good job girls

Kristy/Christy took care of my family and she was beyond amazing! She repeatedly checked in on us, offered to explain any questions about the menu and above all was very polite. She anticipated our needs very well, I can tell she is experienced. The portions are a good size, I couldn't finish my food. The home fries tasted amazing and melted in my mouth. They also give you four pieces of bacon instead of à normal two or three. Sugar cookie coffee is also worth a try! The menu is huge and has choices for everyone. I would strongly recommend Jiggers for your next breakfast outing!

It’s a super cute, classic diner all contained in a dining car. Service is hardworking and tries to keep it moving despite large crowds. The menu features every diner classic one could conjure up— and more. Their take on a cinnamon roll, which was grilled and crunchy, was quite tasty. The banana bread french toast was a decadent treat. The omelette had lots of filling and was accompanied by caramelized home fries. Would recommend going sometime.

Jigger’s Diner is a cozy, classic spot with a nostalgic diner vibe. The breakfast and brunch options are delicious. Portions are generous, ingredients are fresh, and the service is friendly and welcoming. It can get busy on weekends, and parking is a bit tight, but overall it’s a great place for a satisfying meal in East Greenwich. Definitely worth a visit!

A friend of ours told us that we needed to try Jigger’s Diner. I’m so happy that we did. Our server was Kirsty and she was excellent. Our food was delicious and plentiful. We def weren’t hungry after we left. I ordered the Number 2. It was perfect! My bestie ordered the Thanksgiving Eggs Benedict. She was really impressed with the entire dish. Get here before they close (2pm) and enjoy the best breakfast and service ever.

Absolutely the BEST corned beef Benedict we have ever had! We have been going every Sunday for the last month for that and it never disappoints! The staff is also wonderful!

Super cute spot! Was hyped for my special Benedict but wish I chose a different option is all. Will definitely be back to try again!

Had a fantastic experience at Jiggers this week! The place was busy, but we were seated immediately once a booth opened up and offered drinks right away. I went with my usual hot green tea with honey. It was my first time visiting Jiggers and trying Johnny Cakes. I ordered the combo, which included bacon (my choice), scrambled eggs with cheese, and a side. Although the menu lists a fruit bowl, I was offered the option to swap it for hash browns at no extra cost—great flexibility! The combo was delicious. I usually love pancakes with buttery, crispy edges, so the Johnny Cakes were a fun twist with crispy bites all around and a fluffy, mashed potato-like center. My friend ordered the corned beef hash, grits with cheese, and eggs, and wow—that corned beef hash was phenomenal! It’s nothing like the canned version; you can really taste the quality. The menu is so tempting, I’m already excited to go back and try more. Both the breakfast and lunch options sound mouthwatering. Can’t wait for my next visit!

Not sure how this place could get any less than 5 stars from everyone. It's not brand new and chic, but it's a hell of a diner! I feel like the world expects everything to be super fancy and beautiful. I'm here for a good time! The service here is great. The place was packed at 11:30 on a Tuesday and it's because locals LOVE it and i can see why. This spot is adorable. It's wholesome, like the people working here. Honestly, it feels like it's out of a small town romance novel. The food is amazing. The quantity and quantity were mind blowing. I really couldn't decide on what to get. I was there for best breakfast sandwich but got a whole meallll out of it, and also ordered pancakes and hot cocoa cuz why not?! Everything was amazing. If this was close to me, I'd be a regular too! Check it out. I'll be back for sure!

Back on the RI Food Fights #BestBreakfastSandwich trail & this weekend's adventure led us to a spot that absolutely delivered on every level. A visit to Jigger's Diner felt like stepping into the kind of place where breakfast isn't rushed & hospitality truly matters. We went earlier-ish on a Saturday morning & there were only counter seats available with a wait list for booths. By the time we left, every seat in the diner was taken & a gathering of people were waiting to be seated. The Bagel & Lox Jigger's Style was outstanding! Toasted bagel of your choice, cream cheese, smoked salmon, tomato slice, avocado, capers & a little container of chopped red onions, side of home fries. The sandwich was thoughtfully put together, perfectly balanced & incredibly satisfying. Each bite felt indulgent yet comforting, the kind of sandwich that reminds you why breakfast sandwiches deserve their own spotlight. It is easily one of the most memorable stops we have had on the challenge so far. Alongside it, the home fries were crispy on the outside & tender on the inside. They complemented the meal perfectly & were impossible not to stop eating! And while the food alone would have made this visit a success, the service took it to another level. Our server was an absolute delight - fun, outgoing & totally decked out in her Christmas attire finest! What could have been just another breakfast outing turned into a genuinely feel-good morning. Between the standout food, the welcoming vibe & the joyful service, Jigger's Diner made this stop feel like a celebration of food! Highly recommend. NOM NOM NOM #YUM

Jiggers is a comfort spot! In the past +growing up I'd dined in the booths, but I sat at the bar today. The RI food fights best breakfast sandwich coupon entitled me to any handheld. I chose the waffle-wich. Filling! Crispy bacon!!! Added avocado as a side vs home fries. Although my sandwich was comped entirely, I noticed the charge for avocado was 50¢ which is soooo low, because I was given a whole avocado that was so creamy and ripe. My sister enjoyed the Gyro. Great place to eat always. The women who work there have always been so hospitable and friendly.

Came here with the new owners with #rifoodfights #bestbreakfastsandwich. Love this place as it is still a real diner. Menu had some good changes. Had bacon egg and cheese on a waffle. Now this was a waffle! It was a full belgium waffle. Had a good side of dipping syrup. My only knock on this sandwich is that because the waffle is thick it can be dry, even with the syrup. Service is still great, never ran out of coffee. A great staple with great food.

What a cute breakfast spot! My son loves that it's in an old train dining car, and it definitely adds to the charm. Obviously since it is in an old train car it is not very big. I've been quite a few times and sometimes there is a wait and sometimes there isn't. It's certainly a bit hit or miss and often there is no wait if their outside tables are in play as well. Service is always friendly and I love their cheeky signs like "coffee is free tomorrow". I also like that you can get solid side options with your meal, like a side of avocado or fruit. I usually go with the corn beef hash and it does not disappoint. The eggs are also always cooked perfectly. I wish they had a kids menu, but we generally can always make one of the smaller regular menu offerings work for our son. They also have lots of iced coffee flavors, which is also always a win in my book. We will certainly continue to keep Jigger's in our breakfast rotation!

Jigger's is a great place for breakfast in EG! It is an adorable diner on Main Street with lots of options. It doesn't have a lot of seating so be prepared to wait a few minutes or sit at the counter. During my last visit, I had French toast made gluten free. They have several gluten free options and service is fast. My friends had an omelet and gingerbread pancakes which they also said were delicious!

We went with our doggie and were able to sit outside! The staff was so sweet and nice. I got the lobster avocado bacon wrap and it was delicious. Ask to get the lobster cooked in butter! We got the Johnny cakes and we definitely prefer pancakes because they were dense. But everything else was great! Our pup loved it.

Jiggers, you've outdone yourself!! Just had your Lobster avocado and bacon wrap for lunch today. Outstanding!!

This charming little breakfast nook sits between Rasa and Main Street Coffee on Main Street in East Greenwich. The diner is housed in a repurposed railroad car which is pretty cool. Surprisingly, despite their small size, they have an expansive menu which includes only the best fresh ingredients with a massive offering of gluten free options. My breakfast sandwich was cooked perfectly. The fluffy scrambled eggs and crispy bacon on the grilled English muffin satiated my hunger and spoiled my taste buds. My husband raved about his gluten free Johnny cakes with sausage, egg, and hollandaise sauce. Our waitress, Amanda, was clearly experienced and skillfully attended to our needs while engaging us with her personable demeanor. This place is great! I think young children in particular would get a kick out of it too. We will be back for sure!

I've been to Jiggers countless times throughout my life. Each and every time it doesn't disappoint. I live only a few minutes drive from it which definitely helps in why I've been there so many times, but even then it's a classic American diner that has gotten so many awards and recognition throughout the food community in Rhode Island. Today, I got a special which was the Thanksgiving Eggs Benedict. It was quite the plate! So the way it came was pretty interesting. It came with a grilled corn muffin, with a small bowl of cranberry sauce, then with the two eggs sitting on top of two slabs of turkey then having the eggs and turkey sitting on a bed of stuffing! Which btw, the stuffing was fantastic! It was moist, spongy, flavorful and just overall delish! As was the dish in general! I've never had something like it before, so I thought I'd give it a try. The service today was excellent and also very quick, considering how busy it was. We ordered our food and within 20-25 mins food came out. Our waitress too was such a joy. She's been working there for a fairly long time so every time I go there I always see her. And each and every time she's in a good mood, it's great. In terms of the ambiance in Jiggers, it was the same as it always is. A classic, fun, enthusiastic diner joint that never seizes to let me down.

Such friendly servers. As soon as we walked in we were greeted and decided to wait for a booth. So many choices on this menu! They even had a flavored coffee of the day. S'mores when we were there. My husband ordered the Johnny cake breakfast with eggs, bacon and hash browns. Those hash browns were amazing. I think they may have used a bit of old bay seasoning. His Johnny cakes were delicious. I ordered the gingerbread pancakes. Reminded me of Christmas. We loved this diner.

Let's start with the upside: Jigger's is great. Great staff. Great ambiance. Plenty of hot coffee. 5 stars. Do NOT order the Eggs Benedict BLT, though. It sounds good on the menu. The spinach ruins the experience.

Good tasty food, great clean historical spot with outdoor seating available, friendly staff.

The food is ALWAYS amazing and it comes out quickly even when they are super busy! The staff is super friendly and always has a smile on their face! I love the cute diner car, it is perfect for a quick, delicious breakfast!

Jigger's Diner is a nostalgic throwback to a simpler time, where you can get a hearty breakfast at the counter or a big blue plate special. Where your coffee cup is constantly filled and you leave with a smile. I got here early, this is a true diner. It looks like a dining car from the 50s with a selection of booths or counter service seating. I was shown a booth and quickly ordered coffee. I ask about the hash browns and they are made fresh in-house. That's all I need to know! Man... those corned beef hash browns came to me and they are bangin'. Crispy bits of hash are giving my brain sensory overload. An amazing meal all while dining in a piece of American history. My only issue? I never saw my waitress after she poured my coffee. Otherwise, a perfect meal to start my day. Jiggers diner comes highly recommended.

My 2nd trek here from Windsor Locks CT (91 miles away). My best friend, Pots & Pans, accompanied me (he started out in Astoria NY). Well worth the trip. We both agreed that Jigger's was in our top 5 diners all-time (and we've literally hit hundreds). The food is outrageously excellent, the portions are Dagwood size, the service is exceptional, and the ambience (if you like old diners) is through the roof (which is rounded, like an old Worcester dining car). We were ably served by Brooke, as well as on-site manager, Nicole. Both affable and efficient. As Pots is wont to do, he ordered the same as me (his idol). Homemade corned beef hash omelet. With omelets, you get a choice of two sides out of about six listed. We both had marble rye toast and an amazing amalgam of sweet potatoes and black beans that was woven into a fried hash. Don't knock it. It was absolutely delicious. I would get it again in a heartbeat. We also split an order of two Johnnycakes (corn meal pancakes). My maiden voyage with them, as not many northern eateries list them. They were over-the-top! Coffee was nice and hot, and Brooke kept us well caffineated. We also split six muffins to go (comes w a free mug). Delicious (grilled one this morning). Rarely does Pots not finish his food. This was one occassion when he was filled to the gills and left food behind. Overall, a ten star experience. Two cautionaries. Currently closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. Also, the on-line prices do not always match the on-site menu prices. Hey, with inflation and raw goods rising, this is true of a lot of places. If you're in the area, stop in for a delicious meal. If you're a carnivore, def try the CBH.

I had a terrific breakfast here recently, the food was tasty, large portions and excellent service. I can sing the praises of the hash brown enough. Lots of new age menu items for those more adventurous and a laid back old school diner interior. Lots of specials too. Not a discount greasy spoon by any means.

Was on the hunt for a Johnny Cake and found what I was looking for! Cute little spot. There was a little wait, but not bad. Waitress was great. I ordered an omelet and enjoyed it very much.

This is a really awesome breakfast spot in E Greenwich. We hardly had a wait, which was awesome on a holiday! Service was prompt and friendly. And the menu.... Not only with breakfast choices, but lunch as well. The menu for breakfast is large, and there was a page of specials, as well! I had Morning Glory pancakes , which had oats, cranberries and apples on top. I thought they would be heavy, but they were rather light and very flavorful! Hubby had chicken sausage, sweet potato and black beans "hash", scrambled eggs and toast. Neither of us left a crumb lol! Parking is on the street, we parked about 3 blocks down, and it can get busy, so expect a wait. Know, however, it will definitely be worth it!!!

Came here to eat some breakfast while vacationing, couldn't resist the cute retro exterior! We were not disappointed with any part of the experience. Food was promptly served, the service was super nice and the food and atmosphere incredibly inviting and wonderful! Highly recommended. They don't have many diners like this anymore!

The food is exceptional however the customer service was also exceptional! Here's what happened - my husband and I were eating outside when I got stung in the face by a bee. Not only was the waitress sympathetic and stated how sorry she was, the chef/owner also came out to apologize. Understanding it was no one's fault they proceeded to drop off a gift certificate for me. It was so unexpected and I am so grateful. I will be telling everyone I know to visit this restaurant! Thank you! You have a lifelong customer.

Hi folks! The "All or Nothing Yelper" here to share a tale of fine dinery, memorable moments, and flavor bursts that your taste buds will forever long for. Following the pandemic, I had tried to get to Jigger's, but my timing never seemed to be right. I recall them being closed during the week, not sure if that is still a thing or not but I do remember finding Dante's Kitchen one of those days due to Jigger's being closed so I cannot be upset really. That being said, today I walked right into Jigger's, sat down, and had a coffee and water in front of me in the first minute or so! Everything was right in the world, and it was about to get better! My order: 2 Eggs and Hash w/2 sides - Italian Toast / Homefries w/Grilled Onions And because I love blueberry pancakes...1 Blueberry Pancake Let me preface this by noting that I am a hash fanatic, I have to try it if it is on the menu, I frequently use the adjective "hashtastic," and hashtagging is when I take photos of my hash and send them to my friends followed by a short message the says "#hashtagged." Jigger's has the best hash I have ever had. The flavor was robust, the texture was melt in your mouth tender with a subtle pan-fried crunch from a well seasoned flat-top. This hash will forever be remembered. There are not a lot of places that make their own hash, and in my experience, it is really hit or miss when it comes to quality. I will be looking for the same quality next time and I am hopeful that I will get it here. The eggs were over-easy, delicate puddles of yolk perfect for dipping my italian toast and piling on the hash for a perfect combination move at the breakfast counter. The pancake was good, but I will get to that later. The homefries...while they could not steal the show from the hash, they were some of the best I have had in a long time. Meaty potato bites with that same flat-top crunchifried texture. But that is not all, per the suggestion from my server, I added grilled onions to them. I will be forever grateful to the server and their recommendation. The home fries left me wanting more and had I not also ordered the blueberry pancake, I would have considered it. No need for ketchup or hot sauce, they were perfect. Each bite danced on the fork like a well choreographed syncronized swim team. I had to force myself to slow down and come up for air. But let me just touch on the toast. I know...what could be so great about Italian toast? When I made the decision to switch from English muffins to Italian toast many moons ago, it was a big deal, and since doing so, I find that most breakfast places give you the end of the loaf. I am not sure if it is just my timing or what, but you would be surprised how often this happens. My guess is they use the full-size slices for sandwiches on the lunch menu. At Jigger's, this was not the case. The toast was meant for me. It wasn't the leftover pieces most places would use for croutons and bread crumbs. I appreciate that. THE PANCAKE - it was good, texture was good, blueberry to cake ratio was solid. In fact, the pancake was delicious but in the end it came down to the cost. A single blueberry pancake was $7.00. This was not a $7.00 pancake. $4.99 for the single pancake, $1.99 for blueberries. To be honest, the meal itself was so amazing that I did not notice the price until after I paid and tipped. I was fully content with paying the $26.00 bill + $10 tip for breakfast for one because it was so incredible. $7.00 for one pancake is just a tad high in my opinion. In conclusion, if you have not put the time in getting into Jigger's, or if you love hash, or maybe you are a breakfast fanatic like myself, make the time. You will not regret it. I wish I took a picture but the excitement of breakfast got the best of me. Stay hashy folks!

Jiggers might be my favorite brunch spot that doesn't serve alcohol. Friendly cuties serve you and the menu is incredible. There are so many things I have eaten and would eat, this is a top notch brunch breakfast food spot. I definitely go here just to eat anytime I get an early mornin chance

Another classic breakfast at Jiggers. I had the Eggs Benedict and Pearl had the Pumpkin Waffles w CInamon apples on top. Both we delicious. Nicole and the staff continue to offer a consistently great breakfast experience. My favorite part is the food comes out hot, even if your partner has to wait another minute or two for hers.

Wow! Best breakfast place EVER! Each meal is deliciously prepared and will make your mouth water just looking at your plate of food. Always generous portions and healthy alternatives available. Wait staff are incredibly friendly and seem genuinely happy in their jobs. Love, love, love Nicole! Sweetest temperament and never gets flustered no matter how busy they get. My definite favorite breakfast destination when I'm in R.I. There may be a wait to get in but the turnover is quick and so worth it!

Cute diner in the center of Easr Greenwich. Reminded me of an old NYC diner feel. They had a Johnny cakes special combo. It came with 2 eggs / ham, bacon or sausage / fresh fruit/ and of course 2 Johnnycakes. I had been craving them for a while but didn't know who still served them in the area. It was a nice surprise to see on the menu. The service was quick but laid back and everyone was friendly.

Never fails to satisfy!! Spinach, roasted red pepper and onion omelette with rye and avocado in place of butter on my toast!! And coffee!! And of course fabulous service!! Thank you for a fabulous start to the day!!

First; our server was such a sweet lady! The food was amazing, the place is very cute and clean. We ordered the corned beef omelette and lobster Benedict. Both of these meals were super filling and tasty. Make sure you have a good appetite

One of the best diners anywhere in the world. Great food, great atmosphere, great service.

Classic diner experience. Service was great despite being so busy and very kind. I had the habanero Benny and it was amazing and reasonably priced. Seems to get busy fast with many regulars so there were wait times for larger groups . Will come again

Food is pretty good when you can get a seat. Last time I visited, I sat at the seats at front while no one acknowledged me and multiple people came in and were seated. After I had enough of waiting, I sat myself at the counter and proceeded to be ignored again till I asked for some service. Was then told I needed to wait in line. Disorganized mess of management.

Love the atmosphere, old diner car style! I have only been there twice. Once with my husband and once with two other friends. We all love it there. We like the atmosphere, the service and some good choices on the menu. I really like the option of Johnny cakes on the menu, although I have to say even though they were tasty, they were a little hard to chew through. Staff was great, lots of yummy choices. I don't know why, but it reminds me of cheers. A place that's comfortable when you know people. It has that kind of atmosphere. On a nice day you could probably walk through Main Street on East Greenwich after breakfastto check out a lot of local shops

Fantastic food great ambience and phenomenal service!!! Great specials!! Love the place!

I was heading to Main Street and Union but it was a wrong turn I took so I decided to just walk in to the closes spot. This where I walked into this cafe. The menu had a lot of good selections on it. I ordered the summer salad with a Salmon fillet with a side off egg and Italian vinaigrette. The salad was great. The food was done right. For breakfast spot they probably have a best full salad right done here on Main Street. Oh no service was good and the food was filling. I will return and will give higher rating of the food and service stays the same.

First stop in RI. Pros: The waitress was amazing! The atmosphere is quaint. Where else can you eat in a train car?! The staff is friendly . The menu is diverse. From local favorites to regional classics. Cons: I had the lobster Benedict snd grits, which sadly were a huge disappointment. The lobster was a bit chewy, and the cheese grits were all around tasteless. The Johnny cakes that everyone raves about... did not taste good to me at all! Maybe I don't have a sophisticated pallet. This is a tough review, because I really think this place is somewhere you must stop. But, unfortunately the meal I had wasn't great!

We had brunch here on Wednesday morning. Absolutely delicious. We had the lobster Benedict and we were not disappointed! The lobster was fresh. Actually, all their products are fresh. We saw them receiving their supplies, while we were there. Everything was locally sourced. The staff was really friendly. The food was amazing. No one left hungry. We will be back next summer for our yearly trip!

So excited to discover this diner! The diner itself is so old school, complete with paper placemats that have local businesses on them. The food was delicious, large portions and friendly awesome staff. I will definitely be back!

Doesn't look like much from the outside, just a hole in the wall. But step inside and the whole atmosphere changes. It is warm, the staff is welcoming and you can seat yourself anywhere you want. The diner is always busy so you're lucky if you can find a seat. We usually have breakfast, even in the middle of the day. No matter what dish you order, it is done to perfection. The service is always great and our orders are always done to perfection. I would easily give it a ten, if I could. I highly recommend it!!

I went in on 1/14/24 930 am- short wait for party of 3, our waitress was so friendly, food was hot, delicious and came out so fast. Coffee was great and the vibe of the place was fantastic. I will definitely be back

This one is still in an original dining car! The inside is small, as expected for a dining car. Narrow and long, with curved ceiling. Always loved the way these dining car looks... We started with a cup of Downest Coffee. We found out after we got the coffee that they had Eggnog Flavored Coffee! NOOOO!!! I asked our server about it, and she came over later and let me have a little taste of the eggnog coffee. Thank you! And it was quite tasty!!!! For breakfast, we ordered Gingerbread Pancakes and Johnny Cakes. The pancakes were super fluffy and moist, and quite big! Johnny Cakes had crispy exterior with soft inside. Very corn-meal, interesting and tasty! We also ordered a side order of Homemade Corned Beef Hash. I must say, the hash here was not as good as our favorite, Lou Rock's, but still pretty darn tasty and hearty. Since we missed out on the Eggnog Flavored Coffee, we decided to get Eggnog Muffin. Fully and not so much eggnog flavor, but it had nice sweetness to it. We had a nice breakfast here, we had high expectations and they delivered! Our waitress was very nice, welcoming and polite. We would like to go back again and try more of their tasty breakfast!

Really neat little old school diner. Seated right away, place was about 2/3 full. Servers were friendly and attentive which is why the review made it up to 3 stars. Unfortunately the food took most of an hour to be served, and it was just ok. I'd actually go back and give them another try to see if they do better, so that's a plus.

Our first time there on Saturday morning this past weekend was entirely positive. A wait because of time and its popularity. Our server, Nicole, was great. Incredibly upbeat and accommodating in spite of the press of humanity. The veggie burger was excellent if that's your thing. The oatmeal pancakes are different and yummy. The rubin sandwich was well seasoned and large. Will definitely return. Highly recommend. John Conte

What a cute spot to get a good brunch! My husband and I came across this spot and had to put our name down on the wait list as it looked like a cute place to try out. The wait wasn't too long and well worth waiting for. The food: I ordered the Johnny cake Benedict and my husband ordered a steak omelette. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals which were both filling. I had never had a Johnny cake before so I cannot say whether it was exactly what a Johnny cake should be or not, but what I can say is that I would definitely order it again! The service: the gentleman who put our names down on the list was reassuring he'd call us as soon as he had an opening when our names came up. He was friendly and had good customer service. Our server was also friendly and helpful. She gave us some of the history of the diner and about Johnny Cakes which was nice as we are from out of state. Definitely a good experience with the service here. The ambiance: this diner is a great spot for parties of 4 or smaller. I would not recommend coming here with large groups as it is on the smaller side and most of the tables and bar seating accommodate smaller groups. The train-car like set up does keep the space limited so be prepared for a wait. This diner definitely has a diner vibe and is great for those smaller parties as aforementioned. Great spot for a yummy brunch on your own or with loved ones and friends.

We've lived in East Greenwich for 24 years. Jigger's has always been a favorite - except today. There were three of us. Jigger's Egg dish and Texas French Toast were fine, though not notable. The Chocolate Chip Pancakes though were, unanimously, the worst pancakes we have ever tasted. Inedible to be honest. We'll be back, as the food is historically good, but we'll not take a chance on the pancakes again.

Service absolutely amazing. Everything was delivered with a smile and super fast. The food went right along with this theme and was absolutely bussin. Service: 10/10 Food: 10/10 Atmosphere: 10/10

Jigger's is a postage stamp size railroad car diner located in Warwick on the harbor. It has no view. All the doors, booths and menus need updating. Food is mostly waffles, pancakes, sandwiches, burgers, coffee, shakes and the like. Prices are twice what they are at regular diners! Expect to pay $14 for a breakfast plate with bacon. Coffee tastes great and is hot. Waitresses are hurried and only speak in depth to regulars. TVs show sports. Where boat aficionados come before a day on the sea. Narrow, so come in pairs. Rebel review: 3

This place is so adorable and the service is friendly and cheerful -- I've added it to the rotation for sure. My in-laws loved breakfast and all the choices -- especially the lobster. The menu is packed with good stuff -- lots of eggs Benedict choices, omelettes, pancakes and many, many specials. I'm a sucker for gingerbread pancakes and they were large and fluffy -- I got the two-stack and I couldn't even finish it but my husband did. The corned beef is a star, so my husband ordered it plus two poached eggs which were expertly cooked -- not overdone. My mom-in-law had lobster and grits with cheese and avocado. My dad-in-law had a huge corn beef hash omelet and rye toast. They have nice home fries with onions and they pack a lot of flavor in every bite. The service was excellent. Our server really went out of her way to ensure we had everything we need like extra hot water for my tea. I love that kind of attention. She repeatedly asked if everything was okay -- it was! And, my party really raved about their food. The crowd is local and not all hipster. Low-key old school diner. We walked right in on a Monday morning at 11 am and our party of four was seated immediately. But, in about 20 minutes the place was packed for lunch. They display all their tea offerings behind the counter -- and all their specials for breakfast & lunch are written above the counter in large, legible writing. Not a great place for large parties, but there's counter seating for singles and parties of two or four sit in the booth. We parked on the street in front of the door. My dad-in-law thought the booth seats were uncomfortable, sort of like wooden church pews. However, the menu does not disappoint.

What's the fuss all about? Packed on a late Sunday morning, and the 30-minute wait was anti-climactic. Noting "wrong" (except the seating, more on that in a sec) but nothing "WOW" either. Dry and flavorless home fries, so-so pancakes - and very expensive by diner standards. Now to the seating: it's small, so if you don't take first-available you'll wait even longer, but if you are offered the seats at the end of the counter? Pass them by and wait for the next opening. You will be near the kitchen, the dishwasher and the passageway for the wait staff. Someone will walk by you approximately every 30-45 seconds with a tray of dirty dishes or an armful of serving plates. Basically, you'll get Allens Avenue food at EG prices.

Jigger's was a great find on our way back to NYC, not too far off I-95. Jigger's is a classic diner, atmosphere is a 10/10. Lobster Benedict was fantastic and you definitely get your money's worth in lobster & fresh avocado. The Reuben Benedict, item is off menu, but can ask to see if they can make it happen. This was incredible, best Benedict ever tasted. Keep doing what your doing!
