Editor’s Note: Since the publication of this article, Jake and Chet’s Cafe has permanently closed.
When in WaKeeney or just traveling through, there are only a few food options to choose from, but we think each should be tried at least once. This cafe has the good luck of being housed in a beautiful building with interesting interior shapes. For anyone who loves cool design and great Kansas home-cookin’, you’ve come to the right place. This beautiful restaurant is one spot you shouldn’t pass up, whether you’re on the road or visiting the town for a day trip.
Welcome to Jake and Chet’s Cafe, a stunning spot in small-town WaKeeney that’s perfect for lunch when you’re around.

The beautiful glass windows and the curiously shaped ceiling inside this little cafe is something we don’t see often.

From Swedish meatballs or fried chicken to spaghetti and meatloaf, you’re sure to find a menu item that’s perfect for you at this Kansas cafe.

Luckily, whether it’s warm or cold, you’ll find daily specials as well as amazing menu items that come out of the kitchen tasting like home.
