My daughter took me here once when I got out of the hospital and Jenns cafe was so nice to adjust to whatever I wanted or could have at the time and I have been going back regularly since they’re friendly from the moment you arrive and it makes the whole experience so nice and pleasant so I can enjoy the delicious food that very reasonably priced food that I find very appealing and I’m a picky eater

Jenn's is a TRUE GEM within the city of Oroville. A small cafe off the beaten path, my wife and I stopped in after our Green Line Tour of the Oroville Dam. It's small, but the portions are Insanely LARGE. I ordered the Chicken Fried skillet, which included potatoes, eggs, and the BEST country gravy in Northern CA. The chicken fried steak was easily the size of my plate, plentiful potatoes, and what seemed to be 4 eggs. My wife got the Traditional breakfast with the Ribeye and biscuits & gravy. We've both been to steakhouses where the cooks couldn't deliver a rare steak to save their jobs, but it was FLAWLESSLY cooked to perfection! There was absolutely NO way to eat it all, so we packed it away and left satiated and full, with a promise to return again. Make NO mistake about this restaurant, and patronage this Cafe instead of the usual suspects like Denny's and the like. You won't be disappointed. If I COULD give 6 stars, I would.

What I really like about this place is the non-corporate look, the food, right down to the mini fresh flower bouquet on the table. The food is great, the staff friendly and attentive... Definitely worth a visit.

The food was great and the service was great. We had our food hot and ready 30 minutes after leaving our front door. This place was a great example of a family diner. I just suggest that they clarify their menu a little bit.

The service was great; attentive, friendly, and fast. It was clean, our breakfast was good, it wasn't my favorite cup of coffee but I'm pretty picky about my coffee anyway and it wasn't terrible. Best of all, the prices were small, and the portions were large (A necessity​ when dining with my husband). Over all it was a good little diner, I'm sure we will be back.

My mom, sister and I stopped in to have some breakfast for the first time this last weekend! The service was fast and friendly, the food was so delicious, and the atmosphere was cute! We ate outside and they made sure we weren’t forgotten! This may have been our first visit but won’t be our last!
