Jefferson Express is a cozy gem tucked away on Jefferson Ave! ☕🥞 The atmosphere is casual and inviting, making it perfect for a laid-back breakfast or lunch. I tried the western omelette, and it was truly delicious - fluffy and packed with flavor. My boyfriend raved about the turkey sausage omelette, too!

The owner/chef creates magic at the grill while the friendly staff keep things cheerful and interactive. Keep in mind, it’s cash only, but the prices are super affordable! Can’t wait to return! 🌟
