Uncle Jesse's Cafe

We got very lucky today. At the felting class my wife, (twisted my arm)! to get me to take at the Governor Hunt Community Center, we met some very nice local folk. They pointed us in the direction of Uncle Jess’ (owners loved but long-since past beloved Uncle) Cafe which served that day only until 2 pm. I think on Fridays they’re open to 7 pm. AND, each morning that they’re open, it’s an early 7 am.
It’s a converted home in front of an auto garage. The giveaway is the two sandwich boards out front and the kitchen exhaust on the roof.
One enters onto a homey and roomy front porch. There’s a sofa and some individual relaxing chairs. Further into the home, there two four-tops and beyond into the back, there’s three or four more.
On the other side, the friendly cook works at an open grill.
I had the Vermonter omelette for lunch, covered with Vermont Cheddar cheese and filled with Vermont bacon. It was quite tasty. The wheat bread was good but I didn’t ask for some Vermont Jam which would have improved the taste.
Wendy had a chefs salad and couldn’t finish it!
Nice folks. Visit soon! In the summer, they have soft ice cream and LOVE making milk shakes!

Great breakfast & prices. They accept credit card, don’t have iced coffee, and had a breakfast buffet ($15.99) the day I was there. They said they would like to have the buffet every 3rd Sunday of the month (but maybe not! Gotta go and find out!!!)

This place is easy to miss because of its rural-ish location but we’re so glad we found it! Great diner-like breakfast food and perfectly cooked burgers! Highly recommend.

Convenient place to stop in for breakfast. Came here at random when driving through the area and was in need of a diner stop. Food was good and staff were very nice! Eggs were cooked exactly as ordered (over medium can be hard to nail). Was a little worried when we arrived it didn’t have that typical restaurant appearance, but so glad we tried it out.

Breakfast was excellent, they know what over medium eggs are! (nobody else seems to), prices are good, coffee was great! Friendly staff! Limited parking though.

Hidden gem! Great food and service. Happy to have this here in Vernon!

Nice local restaurant for breakfast or lunch.

Excellent food and plenty of it.

Good food, friendly people

Great breakfast!
