Portillo's Restaurants - Honey Jam Cafe

Honey Jam Cafe

In 2010 Portillo Restaurant Group launched the Honey Jam concept. Unlike the other three concepts which focus on fast casual food Honey Jam is essentially an upscale pancake house similar to Walker Brothers Pancake House in both ambiance and menu. They feature unique pancake and waffle combinations and specialty items such as a baked apple pancakes, German pancakes, strawberry cheesecake french toast and white chocolate raspberry Belgian waffles. Honey Jam offers patrons whom order coffee a cup "to go" after receiving their check. The concept's name, according to the menu, is derived from the owners pet-name for his wife, "Honey" and the first letter of his three children's first names comprising the acronym "JAM." The concept is positioned as a breakfast and lunch cafe, and thus closes at 3 p.m.

Famous quotes containing the words honey, jam and/or cafe:

    The honey of heaven may or may not come,
    But that of earth both comes and goes at once.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    We fight our way through the massed and leveled collective safe taste of the Top 40, just looking for a little something we can call our own. But when we find it and jam the radio to hear it again it isn’t just ours—it is a link to thousands of others who are sharing it with us. As a matter of a single song this might mean very little; as culture, as a way of life, you can’t beat it.
    Greil Marcus (b. 1945)

    When cafe life thrives, talk is a shared limberness of the mind that improves appetite for conversation: an adequate sentence maker is then made good, a good one excellent, an excellent one extraordinary.
    Vivian Gornick (b. 1935)
