Jasper's Cafe
About This Spot
Jasper’s Cafe settles comfortably into the rhythm of Glenview life, offering a spacious, sunlit spot where mornings feel unhurried and meals encourage lingering conversations. From the moment you step inside, the large windows flood the room with natural light, creating a welcoming atmosphere that’s bright yet warmly familiar. It’s a place where the pace slows just enough to savor the quiet moments between bites.
The café has an inviting openness that lends itself well to friendly exchanges, whether caught up in a chat with family or a thoughtful pause by yourself over coffee. The thoughtfully arranged seating avoids the cramped bustle found in many breakfast spots, offering a sense of ease to truly settle in. The low hum of contented conversation pairs with attentive service, making each visit feel personal and grounded, even on the busiest mornings.
Jasper’s menu mirrors the unpretentious charm of the space — comfort takes center stage with dishes that feel both familiar and thoughtfully prepared. Whether it’s a generous veggie skillet brimming with tender, seasoned potatoes or a stack of buttermilk pancakes dusted lightly with powdered sugar, the offerings invite you to enjoy hearty, honest flavors without rush. There’s a satisfying breadth to the choices, from classic eggs Benedict and flaky Challah French toast to more unexpected treasures like matzo ball soup, each plate a quiet nod to tradition and care.
Parking is ample and easy, a thoughtful touch that sets the tone even before the first sip of coffee. The friendly bustle of Jasper’s Cafe rarely feels overwhelming, instead striking a balance where the kitchen’s steady rhythm meets the calm ambiance of a well-loved neighborhood table. It's a space built on everyday delights — shared breakfasts, thoughtful service, and moments that remind you why some places simply feel like home.

Walker bros is great but it was packed. We went here and so far have not turned back, been here a few times now. More spacious, brighter interior and easy to talk to one another not cramped. Great food and the options for all types. Parking is very easy and vast

Very busy and very fast service. I had the veggie skillet, which included potatoes and a stack of pancakes. Very big portions and a lot of food. Reasonable prices.

It closes at 3:30 pm on Mondays and of course we showed up at 2:45, easily finding parking in the vast, freshly blacktopped lot. (My co-diner didn't tell me it was soon to close for the day, as he was the one who checked what was then-open in the area.) But our late arrival didn't affect the good service. Service was very good and the atmosphere was clean and bright this sunny Monday, seated next to a wall of windows facing Waukegan Rd. Food was fine and, in agreement with some other reviews, not the most flavorful. However, salt and pepper were at every table with the implied expectation that diners could season their food to taste. (That cooking style was the norm in college, so no complaints.) And portions were large. If we weren't very hungry we certainly would have taken home leftovers. We've yet to try the coffee but the hot chocolate was fine and orange juice very good. Prices were also reasonable.

Went on a monday and only like a dozen people in the place. It took awhile to get a waiter. The food was good but never got water and no refill on the coffee and when it was time to leave we waited forever for the check since the waiter was MIA. Staff needs to do better.

Stopped in on a whim after wanting some simple diner fare and was blown away by the quality of the food. The menu doesn't appear to be anything special. It's the usual diner food, but it seems to be much higher quality than the average diner. Everything we had was excellent and far exceeded our expectations. The matzo ball soup was special treat and not something you can get at any restaurant. Very much recommended. The prices were fair considering the quality. About average for restaurants in the area. Didn't go in expecting much, but this place is somewhere we will return to for sure

From our visit back in May. If you're looking for one of the classic diner atmospheres in town, this is a great option. Savory dishes not exceptionally flavorful, but still an enjoyable experience.
