Since 1997

A Verona kitchen, run like family.

For more than twenty-five years, Jack's Cafe has been the place on Bloomfield Ave where neighbors start their morning and catch up over lunch.

Started in 1997. Still serving the same way.

Jack's Cafe was opened by Jack and Marianne McNamara, and it's been a family-run restaurant ever since. The idea was simple, and it hasn't changed: high-quality food in a welcoming, family-friendly room, served by people who actually know your name.

Jack runs the kitchen, and that's why the eggs come out exactly how you ask and the portions are honest. Regulars will tell you the bacon is the best around — and that their kids get treated like the owners' own grandbabies.

It's a small place with a big heart. Walk in once and you'll feel it; come back twice and you're part of the Jack's family.
