The Mine Cafe

Amazing iced coffee and French toast! Really good service with a yummy menu. Breakfast served all day with lunch starting at 11. Drink specials from noon to 2. Cute little bistro to hang out at and grab a drink or a bite to eat!

Great atmosphere, great food. The staff is lovely. Definitely my favorite breakfast and lunch spot in Jerome and even the Verde Valley. My five year old likes it too!

The «Hungry Savage» is surprising and wonderful! Great service and cozy, eclectic vibe. Really enjoyed it!

Absolutely loved the atmosphere!
The staff was amazing, food was amazing, and I will be back! We had a party of 8, and they accommodated us perfectly.
We loved it!
Make sure you get the miners mug!

Great service, and awesome bloody Mary’s! «The hungry savage» is where it’s at. I love the fact that I have to walk down old school steps to get inside. The environment is mixed with old history and new punk flair.

Sometimes 5 out of 5 just doesn’t come close to summing up how ultimately bad asz, fine dining can be in a casual, creative environment. This place is filled with creativity, grounded in loving what they do. It shows in EVERYTHING that comes out of that kitchen is the by product of love and artful playfulness that makes manifest an experience that leaves you delighted. Kevin and Crew, keep up the creative magic. Thank you for exercisin

This place is amazing. We ate here both Saturday and Sunday morning and were very pleased with the food and service. The biscuits and gravy is amazing and so is the Jam-​Which, which is basically a sausage biscuit with strawberry jam! Different, but surprisingly delicious!

I was expecting so much more. Most reviews were great but I didn’t have the same experience. We were happy with quaint little café’ ambiance and vibe, food was good, but service was awful. Ordered flapjacks with blue berrys and 2 strips of bacon. Bacon came when I complained about its absence. After waiting half hour for the bill finally went to counter to pay check. Service was so bad no one would refill coffee unless asked, twice! We had a waitress who really wouldn’t engage in much conversation. One waiter, not ours, was much friendlier even though we were not his table, HE filled my coffee.
A couple groups came in after us but after being ignored for Long time left. Do yourself a favor and eat somewhere else in Jerome as we saw some other cool café’s and service can’t be any worse.

Biscuits & gravy were recommended but since we were here at lunchtime, decided to try the daily special of vegan chili with hash & cheese on top.
Was such a perfect day, would have loved to sit outside, but alas, only one tiny table and it was taken:-(

Excellent. Biscuits and gravy were perfect. Went for half order and it was right size. Looking for a kick I the morning? Miners Mug has some whiskey and Irish cream. Pretty tasty I must say. Flapjacks are stacked high with bananas and walnuts. Perfect

Stumbles upon this wonderful café when looking for a place to lunch. Was not dissapointed at all! The Owner was extremly nice to everybody and made sure to come by and ask us id all was ok! Loved that! The food was really interesting as well. Many things you don’t see elsewhere which is good. I myself had the *Mother Clucker* and found it delightful. Top that off with an Arnold Palmer and you’re good to go! Stop by if you can, really fun place.

I loved this place!
The inside is adorable, very welcoming and clean. Our server was awesome, great personality and very efficient. I ordered a half order of the biscuits & gravy ($ 3) with a side order of one egg ($ 1.50). Best I have had in a long time, biscuits were cooked perfectly and the gravy was delicious. My friend ordered a basic breakfast with eggs, sausage patty, potatoes and toast ($ 8). I tried the sausage, sooo good… everything was made with great quality ingredients, from scratch and cooked perfectly.
They also serve alcohol! I ordered a drink called «The Lovebird» with rum, lemon juice, and grenadine ($ 6)…it was very refreshing and tasty. My friend ordered the bloody mary ($ 7) and he enjoyed every drop, and especially loved the generous slice of bacon that was added, yum!
Get over there and try this place, you will love it.

Super good stuff, «hole in the wall» describes it perfectly! Nice quiet place to swing in for a bite. Wraps, breakfast, and many coffee drinks to choose!

Fabulous little café with delicious food and friendly service! Was thrilled to see the offer gluten free bread which meant I got gluten free French toast! A are treat outside of major cities in AZ. Will totally be back!

My favorite type of place. Seemingly simple food, but with such great combinations of flavors, prepared with care and served in by really friendly people. No wonder the locals we asked all suggested this place!
Keep up the good work!

Food was great! Best non-​fat latte EVER! Staff was sweet! Don’t miss if you are passing through Jerome!

In a world of Waffle House and Denny’s, the Mine Café is a hidden heaven. Nestled at the top of Jerome and hidden in a downstairs part of a building. This heavenly breakfast hideaway is worth searching out. I have never had a better breakfast in my 32 years of existence. The price is cheap for the high quality of food. Get the Savage Sampler with a side of homemade applesauce. Pass on the ketchup for the home fries, it only takes away from the naturally superb preparation and cooking. My only complaint is that I can’t come back soon enough.

Completely scrumptious!
Biscuits & gravy + hash browns– YUM!
Kids breakfast trio– SOOOO GOOD!
French toast + homemade sausage patty + homemade apple sauce — DELICIOUS!
The coffee was very tasty and kept coming. Great service and a very cozy atmosphere. I’m glad we stumbled upon this place.

Somehow I got turned around and because there was not a street sign at the top of the hill, I called the restaurant back and the guy who answered the phone said «just go to the four way stop and I’ll wave for you to come down» and he did!
That made me feel awesome and he gave great customer service the entire time my friend and I were eating lunch. Thank you waiter dude for consistently refilling all of our waters especially my doggies.
The outdoor seating is a little bit like being in France or New York City, it’s small and in between walls and that was just fine with me because I got to bring my dog! Huge plus in Jerome where there’s not a lot of space for outdoor seating much less for a huge doggie like mine.
If you’re going to sit in the outdoor seating be sure to whoever you’re with take a photo because it’s such a cool backdrop.
The food’s great, had a wonderful time.

Jerome knows how to do breakfast! The Mine Café was another great find in this tourist town. And they open up earlier than other establishments which works for those of us who are early birds! And we aren’t the only ones as when we arrived at this below-​street-​level eatery, there were several other patrons already enjoying their meals.
The offerings are simple — no IHOP-​size menu here. Even so, everything sounded so delicious that it took a while to finally opt for the French Toast and Savage Sampler, and both turned out to be awesome selections. The over-​medium eggs were cooked perfectly! The sausage is house-​made and really had a wonderful blend of flavors. And the potatoes were flavorful, too. They also make their own plum jam which was perfect on the English muffins. The French toast arrived beautifully presented. They use sourdough bread which added another flavor layer. Each slice was topped with a dollop of house-​made applesauce (delicious!!) and whipped cream.
In addition to the simplicity of the menu, the small interior of The Mine is simple as well, yet warm & inviting. Concrete floors, historic pictures, pastry case, and daily specials on a chalkboard. But the pièce de résistance, the most outstanding item of the décor, has to be piano harp (300 lbs.!) hanging on the wall in the little sitting area. Absolutely amazing! And the coffee table is the encased piano keyboard! We were told by the owner (Kevin) that a grand piano used to be in that area, but it was too cumbersome. He dismantled it, and voila! Art! I want these in my house! p. s. He told us he’s working on another!
It’s not often one sees Sloppy Joes as a «Chef Special», so we just had to ask about it. They make it with «yesterday’s» homemade meatloaf (do you see a trend here: house made!) They also sell their homemade applesauce and plum jam.
While we were there, several other came in — guessing they were locals (regulars) by the way the owner greeted them, and in turn, how they greeting some of the other diners. I think because this restaurant is off Main Street, and one has to take steps down in order to access it, it may be easily missed. But it’s your loss if you walk by. Next time we’re in the neighborhood — it’ll be The Mine Café for us.
