Something as basic as a reservation system would be nice instead of doing a wait list on weekends. If it was 30-45 minutes to get take out I would have stuck it out and ate in the plaza above. I was in for a wait time that put us at 2pm. They close at 3pm. So I get a shitty experience where I have to rush and not enjoy it after skipping breakfast because the place is brunch? It sounds like a recipe to leave a bad impression anyways. I have patience to wait, but that isn’t worth blowing over half my day over. “Go earlier to avoid a line.” It’s food, not the release of the PS5. “Just go somewhere else.” Kinda hard to do when everyone hypes the place and you want to give it a shot, but after that, no thanks.
My brother lives just up the street from Jam Cafe and he says the wait isn’t like this on weekends by comparison. If it turns into another four hour waiting shut show, I’ll just leave my sit down breakfast benchmark at a hole in the wall place in Langley. I have respect for the success of the place but matching my expectations to their hype is not for me. I just wanted to spend the time with my family and we all got visibly stressed at the wait time as just a party of three.

My entire family works weekdays, not an option. Doesn’t make sense to lose a days pay for this.
