    Second time visiting Jive's Cafe. We absolutely love the atmosphere. The Christmas flight was over-rated. Could not tell which one we were trying because they were not labeled. My husband's coffee came out cold but the waitress reheated with no issues. Typical breakfast bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. My husband enjoyed the breakfast bowl special but indicated the corned beef may have been out of a can. Basic short stack of pancakes. Basic caramel latte. Now the first time was 2 months ago. Waittress Monica was extremely knowledgeable and attentive to our needs as "First timers". She went above and beyond to help us in our decision making. Her suggestions definitely did not disappoint. Fantastic coffee flight display and we knew which flavor each was. 7 layer cookie was great. I tried ricotta toast and the warm crusty bread was fantastic. My sister had standard breakfast platter which had a hashbrown patty instead of typical home fried potatoes. We are going to try again now that the holidays are over in the hopes to have the same if not better experience as the first try..
