If i could give this place a 20/10 i would. Absolutely phenomenal food (i ordered the fresh herb and sausage pancakes and a purple haze latte). Everything was the perfect proportions and everyone that worked there was so kind. They did take a little while to bring out my food (not that I minded, the atmosphere of light jazz and casual conversation in the background could’ve held me hostage there all day) and they gave me a coffee refill and a cinnamon roll on the house for the wait! (The cinnamon roll went to my mom and she said it was one of the best she’s ever had). Overall i have to say i will be back and this place will be in my brunch recommendations to friends and family in the future!

I am always looking for great food spots in Portsmouth. I passed this spot and decided to look up their menu. I saw several items on their breakfast menu that I wanted to try. We went on a Sunday at 10am. It’s a small dining area but there were a few open tables. You seat yourself and order at the counter. They have an extensive menu of coffee, drinks, and smoothies. I ordered hot jasmine tea, my friend ordered sweet tea. For food, I selected the mushroom and avocado bowl over grits and a side of pan fried potatoes. My friend ordered the buttermilk pancakes with bacon and a side of eggs. The food was fresh and delicious. I loved the fresh parmesian cheese over the potatoes. The pancakes were light and fluffy. The service was excellent. We’ll definitely be back to try lunch.

Staff is super friendly and knowledgeable of their products. Jordan is fantastic! She greeted us with a warm welcome and maintained her emotional resilience when their credit card machine was acting wonky. It’s hard to find genuine people in hospitality industry. Thank you for taking care of your guests! Food is ALWAYS good and location is clean. Must experience your self!

Great!
It was my first time there. Jo (one of the owners) took the time to answer any questions I had regarding substitutions on food. I ordered the big breakfast but subbed regular pancakes for the apple fritter pancakes, which are a must. I ordered a purple haze latte. Little did I know, as she turned around and drew the little character you see on the cup in the photo, that I went to find a table. While I was seated, several servers and her brother Jackson (the other owner) came by to check and see if I needed anything. The restaurant is small, perfect for one or two people to come in and grab a quick bite. Their menu is pretty extensive for breakfast and lunch. You can find something for everyone. They also have coffees and smoothies, not to mention a drive-through for quick grab-and-go items. They had several bakery items such as flavored scones, cookies, and salted caramel bars.
I definitely will be back.

I tried their mushroom, spinach book over grits with avocado, and a poached egg with a scone. Was craving something different , and they definitely delivered. Everything was absolutely delicious if you’re a fan of the ingredients, which are my favorites. Hidden gem worth trying!
Update 3/19/2024 Absolutely mouth watering for a person that loves veggie Omelets and Brie, very authentic touch , with a warm soul food feeling. Philly with Brie is absolutely amazing as well!! 11 months later , it still never ceases to amaze! If you like to try different things with a twist of greatness, definitely check them out!

Very friendly staff, amazing food with options for everyone, the atmosphere was incredibly welcoming and there’s plenty of seating options whether you’re meeting a friend or dining on your own. I noticed a pick up window as well that you can drive up to making a coffee and breakfast on the go that isn’t fast food easy! The parking lot was easily accessible in and out. I’d give it a 10/10 stars if that was an option. Cannot wait to go back 🙂

I’d like to consider this place a hidden gem. The food is amazing,cooked to order and the staff is very accommodating. I had an omelette and a latte before work and it was on point. The chef made my omelette with fresh eggs because of my sensitivity to dairy. Every time I stop in it’s well worth it!

Jojacks is absolute treasure. The food is out of this world and the coffee and desserts are divine. What I love most about JoJacks is the staff. They are the most kind-hearted folks you could meet and be served by. Truly a Portsmouth gem!

Best little spot in Portsmouth. Amazing food, amazing customer service. I’ve tried a lot of the menu and it’s a hit EVERY time. In my opinion the pancakes are the best around. So flavorful. The Monte Cristo is amazing. And for the lunch “The Rachel” is fantastic. But then again everything on the menu is honestly great.

The employees were very pleasant and attentive to their customers.
The Monte Cristo sandwich was excellent. The cinnamon toast with the ham, bacon, maple glaze and raspberry jam was a great combination. It was just the right amount of sweetness, not overly sweet. Perfect!
The country omelet hit the spot. Seasoned perfectly.
I highly recommend their breakfast.
