So I would like to clarify that the first time I went to Johnny beans I had a great experience, the service was relatively quick and the food was good. However the second time I went it was the opposite, we were seated and waited about 15 minutes to get served beverages and proceeded to wait another hour until we got our food, even people who had arrived after us were served their beverages and food sooner than us who had been there much longer. We didn’t really get an explanation or an apology at the very least for the poor services. Will never be going back there.
Best classic diner breakfast food in the area. And they serve great coffee too! Quirky little underground spot with lots of character.
Great little place. A bit understaffed at the time, but that seems to be a problem in a lot of places nowadays.
Jonnie Beans looked like a unique eating establishment in a large brick building. We went for an early lunch, we received our beverages then proceeded to wait 1 hour after ordering, for our food. We watched as others arrived, ordered, ate & left by the time we finally ate. No apologies for the wait, either. BTW...the food was average. Won’t be back.
Nice restaurant in a converted warehouse. Nice place in a small town. Large menu with good food.
Got there for breakfast there was only one other table when we arrived after we ordered the server came back over 7 times to re-asked what different parts of our orders were, after about 45 minutes we finally got our food and only half of my order wasn’t there( I did get the other half of it but it was over cooked oily and dry) and everyone else had at least one incorrect item. I would not return worst service I’ve ever seen
Surprisingly large and nice internet Cafe! Lived nearby for a while and never tried it before. Wonderful food at a decent price! Will be putting Johnnies into the regular rotation!
Immaculate dining experience featuring breakfast favorites (cakes, waffles, biscuits & gravy, eggs benedict, etc), and cafe treats.
First time I ever had been there and was very pleased with food and service even being they were short handed.
Great food and atmosphere! Great staff also.
It was very good! I say 10/10
Place used to be excellent. Service was slow and food mediocre the last two times Ive visited. Very disappointing.
1st time there, Great Food, Great Service and an awsome older Building.
My daughter treated me to breakfast here yesterday and what a fantastic experience. Jodi (spelling?) was fun, witty, went above and beyond any waitress/manager I have experienced for a very, very long time. She made my grandson special shaped pancakes and promised him more surprises on our next visit.She is a great asset to the restaurant with a wonderful attitude.The Americana omelette was a good portion, came out piping hot and delicious.
Not sure what has happened here. We have always enjoyed coming here for breakfast. Today we waited for 15 mins to be seated. Only appeared to be 1 person to take orders, money and bus tables. We were patient and waited for her to check out at least 8 other customers. Once seated we ordered beverages and continued to wait. After sometime with no beverages and our food order not yet taken, we saw the server pick up a plastic bin in what appeared she was going to bus tables. At this point there was her and two other employees standing by the register talking. We decided rather than waste more time waiting we would leave. Got up and said goodbye to them. One of them said sorry. We did not have a good experience the last time we were there but decided to give it another try as everyone has an off day. Sad, we always told others to go here as they had good service and food. Not so much anymore.
As an out of towner just passing through Jonnie’s was a little hard to find (it’s a mixed use building, head straight to the basement). Also it popped up in my search for coffee shops so was expecting counter service, but turns out it’s a sit down place. Not a problem though, service was fast and they had a cozy little area probably best described as a reading nook where I sat and ate, food was good as was the service. Would recommend
The special today was great. The home made mushroom soup even better. Ill be back
Always excellent food, atmosphere, employees. Have never had a bad meal. Always taste like homemade!
Last week was the first time we came to that place. But It is definitely not the last time. We had a good time with the attentive service, with the magnificent cuisine and wine and with the modest charge. We will absolutely go back there soon.
Update: was back in the area and grabbed lunch here again. Still top notch!Stopped in for lunch two days in a row. Nice atmosphere and great sandwiches.
The food is good, but it is located in the basement.
Great service!
Okay restaurant. Prices were decent, and staff was excellent. Food was so-so. Side salads were just iceberg lettuce with some croutons and dressing. Sandwiches were made well. I ordered a Cuban wich was well Balanced, and not heavily reliant on mustard. My wife ordered a French Dip. The meat was a little over done but seasoned well.
A great breakfast spot if you are in the area. Very accommodating staff - they made me an off menu breakfast sandwich. Thanks!
Extremely slow service. Advertised quick service and pastries. None. Waited over 45 minutes for eggs and toast and bagel sandwich. Still no food. Eggs and toast under warm light for over 12 minutes. Asked them to just serve them. Wanted dry toast, it was sitting there drenched in liquid butter typeNever served us. We told them way to slow and went to coffee shop downtown. Daily Grind had good coffee and good fast lunch.
Stopped in for a quick breakfast meeting. Excellent food, perfect coffee, friendly staff.
Great atmosphere for visiting; cozy, warm and I enjoy the wood surrounding us. Food is fantastic! Will return again and again.
Food is great and reasonably priced. Love that its in the basement of a historic building. Loved the atmosphere. Didnt have a chance to try the coffee but would love to in the future.
Atmosphere was great. But the food was very poor. Biscuits and gravy looked very pasty and not hot at all.
Excellent food! Love their breakfasts. Go there every time Im in town. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.
This place is awesome and the food is great. Only thing i dont like is that its really stupid to be closed on sundays being a breakfast establishment.
Best breakfast around for sure. Always a super friendly and fun staff.
Best place for breakfast in waseca. Reasonable prices and good food.
Good food, good service...not great ambience or my type
Food was okay but it took 45 minutes to get!! The omelette was way under cooked...they microwaved it when we told them... and still was runny. There were 5 at the table but we got food in 3 shifts. To top it off...the waitress didnt know how to make change!! They were not busy at all as we were there are 9:30 am. Wont be back!!
Long wait of over 45mins, food was not accurate according to the menu description. Bacon on salad was not completely cooked.Server was good. Kitchen not so much.
Best monte cristo sandwich ever! Made with homemade raspberry French toast bread. Wow.Check out the rewards/points card for double points on Mondays!
Excellent breakfast!! Was very pleasantly surprised. Great atmosphere with good service
Great food and great people
Outstanding food and service. Retro style restaurant that has lots of eye appeal.
Excellent atmosphere for lunch with friends or stealing away with laptop to get work accomplished. Enjoyed the pleasant staff.
Great food, relaxing atmosphere! Perfect combination.
Jonnie Beans is a very nice and amazing place to bring your family to eat
Always good coffee omelettes and atmosphere!
Good food, great and friendly staff. It can be a bit dark in the restaurant. Had to see the menu.
Always good food and atmosphere
Small servings for the money but atmosphere and staff are great!!!
Delicious food, variety of food choice, fast service, cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, well priced, easy to get to in a historic building in Waseca.
If you havent been here before you might get confused getting in there. Its in a big building with three different restaurants. We accidentally walked into a bar first and they told us its in the basement. Its really more of a sit down restaurant than an internet coffee shop like they advertise. The food is excellent, and the coffee is good (not up to West coast coffee snob standards, but decent) and the service is great. The atmosphere is quaint, country without being overly cluttered or claustrophobic... Its a daylight basement. My only real complaint is that the WiFi wasnt great. It kept dropping out and I had some important work I needed to finish, online forms, and I kept losing my data and having to start over. If you want a great breakfast or lunch with tons of choices and good service then this is your place, but if you need good WiFi and want the whole organic coffee shop experience, go to The Daily Grind.
Good food, friendly atmosphere, and reasonable prices.
Great food, friendly staff, terrific atmosphere, and good coffee
Their raspberry French toast is the best along with Monte Cristo.
Always good food great service
Very good service and good was great
This one of the top places in town for breakfast or lunch, Great coffee, sandwiches and all american breakfasts. Prompt service with a smile. Being a geek the available WiFi is always a plus. I have yet to have a bad experience here and plan on to make this my go to place for those lazy days.
