Scrambled Jake's Breakfast Company

Ridiculously good breakfast food! Enormous pancakes, crisp, buttery waffles, generously filled omelets with a huge variety of flavorful fillings. We tried the Funky Monkey waffle, Jake's Scramble, the All-In omelet, the Garden Veggie Omelet, and deep fried Deviled Eggs. We also tried a biscuit with sweet cream butter and berry compote, the breakfast potato casserole, and the creamy grits. Everything was outstanding, with the only so-so item being the deviled eggs. Oh my goodness, I almost forgot to mention the in-house roasted, bottomless, french-pressed coffee! To die for! We asked if they sold the coffee in bags, but alas, not yet. All the staff, from the host to our server and everyone we passed on the way to and from our table were so friendly! We live about 2 hours away, but we are already making plans to come back! Even though it was SUPER busy with the football game going on, the wait time wasn't bad at all (maybe 30 minutes). Scrambled Jake's and their lovely staff deserve SO MUCH praise. After the first few bites we googled to look for more locations, in the hopes they were a franchise!

Great place for breakfast, their parking is small but they do valet if needed. Price is good and portions are large. Server was awesome (wish I remember name). If you get pancakes get 1 vs 2 as they are huge.

Everything from the authentic wooden walls and the overall rustic feel to the tastiness of the food is exquisite! My family split the massive cinnamon roll (which was doused in a rich blanket of icing), and I got the all-in omelette. The all-in omelet has multiple meats and is super delicious! The potato cake on the side is also really good! I don’t really know how to describe it, but this restaurant is the best breakfast restaurant that I have ever visited!

Any trip to Knoxville area would be incomplete without visiting for breakfast. We come from up north a few times a year to visit and it’s a given that we’ll visit one or more times in a week. I can’t say enough about the food quality and staff here. Absolutely Awesome!

Excellent breakfast place! Friendly and efficient service. Food portions are HUGE!!! You will have enough for left-overs!!! Definitely recommend if you are in the area!

If you are in Tennessee, Knoxville you have to come for breakfast at Scrambled Jacke’s. We were in town to drop off our daughter to UTK and heard about this place. Amazing food and that cinnamon roll was outstanding. Thank you Scrambled Jake’s, you made some Chicagoans very happy.

Coffee was free flowing and delicious. I ordered the "Sonora Scrambler" which was plentiful enough to enjoy 2 meals out of! I will return again with many friends so we can share bites of all the delicious options!

Highly recommend doing “call ahead” on their website. When we arrived there were so many people but our wait was about 5 minutes. Tara, our server, did a great job. Ordered the cinnamon roll for all four of us to share… perfect portion for the four of us. Had the Knox lox and french toast. French toast was just a little soggy in the middle but very tasty. Highly recommend to try. Prices were fair. Will definitely return. (Picture is the cinnamon roll).

Love this place! Came across this place tucked along small town residential area - thought we'd give it a try for our first meal of the day in TN - glad we did! Staffs were friendly and attentive. We had the best, All in Omelette (so delish), French Toasts w/ Berries, Naan Breakfast Pizza, and Knox Lox. Though I must say, please don't put too much of the dill cream cheese since it's over powering the salmon - just a little constructive criticism to the Chef Portions are generous, flavors are bold, and everything feels like it was made with heart. Best omelette and breakfast pizza we've ever tasted thus far. Their Ben-Yay's are a must to have and their freshly squeezed orange juice Happy tummies for sure.

We stopped by again since my husband and cousin like this place. This time I got an omelette with potatoes and it was okay. I could have used more cheese in it. The kids shared a monkey waffle with bananas and chocolate on top. My husband got avocado toast and a breakfast burrito. The avocado on the toast did not taste fresh made, it tasted more like the kind you get from a container. It was ok but not amazing. My husband liked his burrito and the kids were ok with their waffle but it wasn't their most favorite waffle ever. Our server was nice. The kitchen got the egg order wrong for my husband's cousin's family and they brought more out for them even though they said that they wanted to make sure we weren't charged for it (extra cheese) since we had been close to finishing (they got their food slower). The sin-o-man cinnamon roll was kind of dry and only a few bites of the whole thing were eaten by a table of 8 people since no one really liked it. Overall there are tons of tables and the ambiance is nice, but there needs to be more parking. The food is ok but seems overhyped. I feel like 3 is a pretty solid rating still.

Good place for breakfast and brunch. Knoxville/Tennessee themed decor in a modern, cabin style setting. Nice menu with many choices. Food was tasty and made with good quality ingredients. Filling portions and attractive presentation. Everyone in our party was satisfied with their dishes. Service was friendly and fast. Our young server was obviously well trained and experienced. Always attentive without being a nuisance. We will be back when in the area.

Been a frequent visitor of Scrambled Jakes since 2018. This place is in the heart of Rocky Hill and has definitely become a well known local secret-- just check the wait time on the weekends, and you'll see just how popular this place is. Recently visited with my boyfriend and happy the wait time isn't so crazy on the weekdays as it is on the weekends. The cinnamon rolls are always a hit. I remember when they were $4.25. Now double that price. CRAZY!! ‍. I guess inflation is present here too. Our go to entree is always the all in omelette with the ranchero sauce and fried jalapeños or the breakfast burrito. Very sad to see the breakfast casserole has now changed to a hash brown casserole. Not as good. Bring back the old recipe or hand it over to the public.

This was first time brought my family and was not only disappointed but the manger was less than professional. My daughters food came out wrong, she sent it back to be reheated and the disgust in the managers face was infuriating. Maybe take a course or two on hospitality and customer service Not impressed the prices were ridiculous for the area, and the coffee was bitter. Not worth the money or the insult.

This was an AMAZING find! The food and service were fabulous! We ate outside and it was so beautiful! Don't hesitate go and try this place you won't be disappointed :)

My first time at this restaurant and I enjoyed it thoroughly. It's really spacious and the servers were friendly! They offered military discount even though they aren't really expensive. It was 3 of us and we were seated pretty quickly. We were initially missing 1 person from our party so we wanted to wait on her and the waitress ensured we had our drinks while we waited but kept checking in on us about every 10 minutes. Once she arrived we ordered and within 20 minutes our food arrived. I order the 2 egg breakfast which came with hash browns, grits and 2 swaggerty sausages (my coworker gave me the extra 2). My food was amazing! The grits were thicker than I'm used to but they were still REALLY good and the hash browns came out more like scalloped potatoes. I'm definitely going back!

Didn't realize this was number one but I see why. Plus- ordered the keto omelet. Bacon eggs and avocado. Big and perfectly cooked. Good coffee. Could be better- Tiny narrow cups. Almost espresso sized. Hefty price.

We decided to try this cute spot heading out of Knoxville, and it didn't disappoint! The parking lot was a bit jam packed, so we thought we were going to have a wait, but we actually had no wait as the restaurant is huge (full disclosure we did come on a Monday). The place is super cute and inviting inside, and makes you feel right at home! I decided to get the Jake's Favorite scrambler which came with eggs, pecan smoked bacon, onions, and tomato confit. It was topped with American cheese and baked over a potato casserole served with a biscuit on the side. I love American cheese on eggs, so I knew I'd love this dish. It was packed with flavors and just enough of every ingredient included in the dish. The biscuit was fluffy, moist, and went so well with the jam and butter! My friend got the cheese omelet, which came with aged cheddar and Gruyère, topped with Gruyère cheese and and Alfredo sauce! For me, the more cheese the merrier. Out waitress was also on top of it, and very accommodating and friendly! If you're ever in Knoxville, this is the perfect breakfast spot!

Food was very good and filling. The four of us that ate breakfast here were full all day and we didn't eat until super. The breakfast Barittos were very good. My wife and daughter had a breakfast bowl and loved it.

Brought my handicapped Mother that uses a walker,for the 1st time. The handicapped entrance is clear around the side of the building, the one close door is closed as emergency exit! The worst breakfast potatoes we've ever had, cold & flavorless, hard cold bacon. It's very obvious it's all precooked in the morning, sitting under a lamp all day. Hard to find ANYTHING prepared fresh. I complained & the waitress actually said..."well you're the 1st person to complain"...wtf. Well...good coffee & great atmosphere at least.

Good breakfast/ brunch place. The inside is neat. It's a bit small, so you might have a wait but around lunch time we didn't wait at all. They don't have lunch food, so you need to be in the mood for breakfast. They also have specialty cocktails. Nice staff.

So noisy you cannot hear the waitstaff inches from your ear. Plus not the most inspiring menu.

My favorite breakfast place! His place has a modern cabin feel to it. It has large open areas, a big fireplace and even a bar that I call the Bloody Mary hangout in the corner between the two large rooms. I am not a fan of bloody Marys except here, it might be because of the swag garnish that comes with that.. I actually feel healthy when drinking it. So Good!! The other think SJ is know for is the giant cinnamon bun. All their food is amazing and you can pretty much get whatever you are craving. The place is always clean and roomy, even when there are busy. I had the savory crepe with a scratch Béchamel sauce and it was served with the seasoned hash brown casserole. The staff is so knowledgeable. He is the one who recommended me to get a small kids pancake to save money and not to get stuffed. All the servers are great at the job, they make sure you come back.

Told a 20-30 minutes. we waited 25 minutes. they have lots of places to sit while you wait. we had the deviled eggs...they were good. the egg benny, great. Jake's special...yummy! kids egg, bacon, and pancakes..awesome! we shared a biscuit and gravy...it was good too! they were busy but you get your food fast! would recommend. ended our weekend in Knoxville!

Amazing homemade food!! The cinnamon rolls can't be beat!! There are also gluten free options, but everything is delicious! The biscuits and homemade jam are a fave of mine. They also offer some cocktails, mimosas, and homebrewed and pressed coffee! You can't go wrong with any menu item! Fantastic service and cute decor makes this a cozy/homey spot!!

This was our 2nd time, we decided to go during the week as less busy than Sunday. They do have an online waitlist that you can use, but we didn't need on Monday. I got the breakfast pizza on Naan with crumbled pecan bacon mozzarella, tomato confit, spinach, 2 eggs (cooked anyway you would like) with crème friache drizzle. It came with fresh fruit or fresh greens. My husband had cinnamon French toast with link sausage. Service was wonderful, the food was delicious! We highly recommend and will definitely go back!

This place is soooo good. Had the Bagel Benny, Ben-Yays, large OJ ( best I ever had), and the coffee. Flavors are amazing and the service top notch!!!

10:30 am and they are booming busy. I ordered the Huevos Rancheros and it was very good. The cinnamon roll was amazing too. Great place for 6+ groups.

Went here for breakfast the other day. Service was a bit lackluster, but most of the food we were served during the meal was at last passable. Tip: This place is very close to Pop's Donuts; I suggest that you stop at Pop's if you're craving a sugar fix after your meal here. The cinnamon roles are notoriously good here; I've had them in the past and always enjoyed them, so we ordered a couple to go after breakfast - BIG mistake! When we got home and tried them, they were not only very stale, but the icing tasted terrible ;-)

Delicious brunch spot but make sure to hop on their online waitlist because it is always busy here on the weekends! The food is delicious and in large portions so you get the bang for your buck. The cabin feel of the restaurant also makes it feel like you truly are in the hills on TN.

Oh my gosh!! What to say about this place?!? It's FanTastic!! Tried it for the first time on a Thursday and went back on Saturday. It's THAT good!! It's a really cute place with indoor and outdoor seating. It was raining so everyone was indoors. The hostess was friendly. We sat down and our waiter came out to help us and he was awesome!!! Super friendly! Gave us the lowdown on all the great food! I decided to not try fancy stuff and have the normal eggs and bacon and potatoes. The potatoes are amazing. Little layers of sliced potatoes with great seasoning, cooked to perfection. It came with grits, I hate grits but I figured I wouldn't eat it. When it arrived it looked different than any grits I've ever had. So I tried it. DELICIOUS!! This is the only way to prepare grits!! Tell the world!! The mushy gross grits are to be banished and Jake's grits are the Only Grits from now on!!! It was my birthday so they brought me one of their homemade cinnamon rolls. Of course...it was fabulous too!! Their coffee was fantastic!! And they make their own flavored creamer. I didn't try it, but it sounds good. They serve alcoholic beverages for those brunches and mimosa mornings. Everyone in our party loved their food. We will definitely be back!! Weekends get busy, so plan on waiting a little bit for a table. But it's worth it!!!

This restaurant is a warm and welcoming environment. Very clean. Our food was Great. Friendly server. Will definitely return.

The pancakes were the best I have ever had, in fact, I bought their mix and brought it home! The Fried Deviled Eggs were out of this world! We have tried again and again to replicate them, but to no avail. The service was great, we didn't have to wait long because we chose to sit at the bar, but there was a line when we left. The bartender was very cool and made some great drinks!

A solid brunch that I have had in a minute! Everything was very delicious, and the beignets were absolutely scrumptious. The French toast was also very tasty and well balanced. They were quite busy so the staff were really split between all tables. I will be back!

We had a fantastic brunch at Scrambled Jake's in Knoxville on a Wednesday. Our party of five was seated immediately, and the service was excellent. The breakfast burrito is a family favorite, always delicious but even better with extra sour cream. I tried the Sonora Scrambler, and it was perfect--filling yet light. Scrambled Jake's never disappoints! Highly recommend for anyone in the area.

As a southern girlie, love my southern comfort food and southern hospitality. Scrambled Jake's is a reliable brunch spot that offers the classic breakfast items, but the show stopper would have to be their giant cinnamon roll. Be warned that if you don't go early enough, they are usually sold out of their cinnamon roll, but I was lucky enough to snag one to try. It was definitely eye-catching and yummy, but leaned towards the sweeter side. If you have a big sweet tooth, this may be your cup of tea. The overall service, was phenomenal. Southern hospitality will always have a special place in my heart that can't be verbalized through words.

Indigestion destination - We oped in today to try out Jake's for a breakfast and learned another good food in Knoxville lesson. First notable thing was that there is limited parking for the customers here, more inside seating and way too few parking spots to acccomodate. You can park off the restaurant site in a dirt lot next door which can help (assuming you know this trick). Our two orders were: 2 Egg breakfast w/bacon and biscuit Sonoran Scramble Coffees The place is well kept and clean, has good service and comfortable seating - all good. Our server did a great job getting us coffee and waters right away and was attentive ... and all in gets a 9 overall. Good start. Clearly there are issues with the food from a consumer standpoint .. 2 egg breakfast - it comes with potato casserole, grits, choice of meat (selected pecon smoked bacon) and a biscuit. Sounds good right ? First issue was the food was barely warm when it hit the table, the eggs appeared to be the only item not precooked then warmed. The potatoe caserole was more like scalloped potatoes scooped in a mound .. minus the ham - not a fan. The bacon looked good but the pecan taste was a turn off, can't say I was a fan at all. Grits were OK but not something I would eat twice. The jam served with the biscuit was non-discript .. rumor has it that it was strawberry - jury is still out. Sonoran Scramble - this was a train wreck, a better name would be Sonoran mash. It was difficult to ID any of the incredients and the prized topper of avacado was more mashed (ie like Chipotle). Why sun dried tomatoes are added in excess I will never know, not helpful. The taste was odd and sadly my guest got heartburn after eating only half .. this one is a no go for sure. The biscuits were dry. Needless to say inspite of the 4 star average this spot can be good for group gatherings but highly reocmmend conservative ordering techniques or BYOF please. The price is also a game stopper, $40 - pass.

Food was really good and fast! Perfect for brunch!! Got the pancake with blueberries and Huevos rancheros! Yum!

I can see why this place is voted best breakfast in Knoxville. Lots to choose from on the menu, variety of breakfast drinks, and casual atmosphere however I thought some of the features were overhyped. We decided to have the Kiss your own grits and the 2 egg breakfast. The grits were cooked perfectly and so were the eggs. I decided to add some gravy to the biscuit that the dishes came with because you can't go wrong with biscuits and gravy. The regular sausage patties were average but I thought the letdown was breakfast potatoes. I always hear how people rave about them but I didn't find them to be a crave-able breakfast feature. To me they were like a slightly elevated scalloped potatoes but not the cheesy flavorful potato casserole I typically look for with my breakfast. Our service was just average, however I'll still give it a 4 stars to give them the benefit of a doubt that some of their other featured items are just as amazing as they say

We always bring in out of town visitors and relatives to this place. So many dishes to try. It used to be hard to get in due to its popularity but in the last few years I think they squeezed in more tables. Waiting time is not so bad now.

Breakfast was very tasty. Staff very nice and helpful. If we lived closer, we would eat there often. Very clean and nicely furnished. A very nice experience.

My wife and I both had different types of breakfast and when we got home we both were running to the bathroom. We will never go back.

We had some delicious take out from here for breakfast after our first night in Knoxville. It was delicious. Can't say much else since it was only take out but it was very good.

We just happened to find this place. We were on the west side of town and were looking for a brunch spot. It came up on my phone and we said why not lived here for 18 years and didn't know this places was here. The place has a great vibe and great service! Food was so very good! My husband had the all in omelette. I had the savory crepes which were heavenly with the creamy cheese sauce. We shared a cinnamon roll which is served like an appetizer which we couldn't even finish but it was very good!! We will definitely be back. Only complaint I would have is there isn't much parking.

Scrambled Jake's had an online waitlist, which was pretty amazing for a Saturday morning and our party of 7. We had great service and we all enjoyed our food. The cinnamon roll was a great appetizer for all of us to share, too!

On our way to the Carolinas and hung up in traffic at lunch time. The place is a short trip from the interstate but well worth the drive. The place is popular so there may be a wait but if you don't mind sitting at the bar you likely can walk in. The food is freshly prepared and has a great presentation and the taste lives up to the presentation. For a crowded place the food was served quickly. Be prepared to have a bit of background noise and maybe a wait.

Great place to go for breakfast or brunch Lots of choices and very friendly and nice wait staff. From previous experience Mondays can be a pain to get seated, not sure what it is with the Knox business people and Mondays. Went yesterday Tuesday, straight in and seated

1. Call/plan ahead (then you can avoid any frustration, etc, of waiting/long wait times) easy enough, right 2. It's not a huge place, so keep that in mind to go with the above. Makes sense. 3. The food was really good, the dishes I've had with family coming here (2 or 3x already) are a good size. And I really appreciate the fresh squeezed juices as well.

Outstanding!!!! Great service and atmosphere. I recommend them to everyone. Yuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!

Food was delicious! Huge pancakes! Fast service! It does get packed so come early! Their establishment is very clean can get a little loud when it's packed daughter needed some headphones but worth it

We had a great breakfast at Scrambled Jake's. The place was hopping a little before 9am on a Sunday but we only waited 10 minutes before being shown to a table. Our waitress was friendly and the food was excellent. I highly recommend the cinnamon roll - definitely big enough to share - and the lox Benedict. Also the fresh squeezed OJ. The naan breakfast pizza was the only mediocre thing we tried. It was loaded with sun dried tomatoes (incorrectly listed as "tomato confit" on the menu) and the flavor overwhelmed everything else. If we'd known we would have opted for something else. Also, avoid the French press coffee if you're in a hurry for caffeine. They only had three French presses for the whole restaurant the day we went (don't know if it was a fluke or a regular issue) and my husband waited upwards of 30 minutes for coffee.

Yummy food, hot Chocolate was so tasty the service was very nice!! Had a pretty cool look to it and I really like the decorations!

I've been coming here for years now and hands down this is the best breakfast/brunch spot in Knoxville! The classic cheese omelette is so decadent with the Alfredo cheese on top. I like to add bacon and mushrooms in it. The star of this restaurant is the deep fried deviled eggs. Whoever came up with this concept is a genius. It is paired with a mustard sauce that is just phenomenal.

Tip for weekdays: in many cases the parking lot will be full but it will be "no waiting" for a table. Parking is available across the street in the strip mall.

This is a great place for a casual meal. The service was excellent! We were told it would be a 45 minute wait, but we were seated in less than 30 minutes. The food came out quickly, and everyone enjoyed their meal.

Sat at the bar this morning at 11:45, ordered lox and lox of toast by 11:50. Saw guests food coming at normal pace, as it was slightly busy. Assuming busy because of the football game tomorrow. I've worked in the F&B industry for 25years and am more aware of the other things going on and that play a part in day to day service. Cinnamon rolls, burritos, to go orders coming i In and going out. Last straw, gentlemen comes in, sits order, and his burrito is delivered in 10 minutes. I was on my feet ready to leave when My TOAST finally comes out 5 minutes after his! One slice of toast, a smear or cream cheese a slice of salmon, very underwhelming. Being new to the area and after speaking to the woman sitting next to me, I was looking forward to finding a great breakfast spot. So very disappointed.

The food was very good, friendly staff and for as full as the restaurant was it was surprisingly fast! Would definitely recommend the cinnamon rolls, they are huge so great for splitting!

Loved the interior and our waitress, Amber, was AMAZING!!! We will definitely go back! Great food! Great drinks!
