Skyway Jacks in St Petersburg – A Favorite for Breakfast & Brunch

Published on 10/18/23:

Who knows Skyway Jack’s St. Petersburg? Finally visited and now understand why this breakfast institution (since 1976) has been recommended by so many Loving St Pete followers!
Address: 2795 34th St South, St Pete
Checking in with 3400+ reviews and 4.5/5 stars on Google, this casual breakfast and lunch spot is certainly loved by many. Far from one of my ‘hidden gem’ posts. After all, Skyway Jack’s was even featured on the Food Network.
My “Whistle Stop” order was delicious, with two poached eggs over fried green tomatoes and chopped bacon on an English muffin covered in hollandaise. Colt loved his meal too! “Southern French Toast” consisting of cream cheese, orange marmalade & pecans between two slices of bread, grilled, served w/ honey-orange sauce.
Skyway Jack’s offers very casual dining with a comfortable atmosphere and a huge menu. This includes many eggs benedict options, omelets, country fried steak, fisherman’s special, steak & eggs, skillets, French toast, waffles, pancakes, and SO much more. Something for everyone, including salads and numerous lunch options.
Skyway Jack’s appears to be the breakfast and lunch equivalent of Cheers. The place where everybody knows your name. We noted no less than 6 solo regulars, joining other regulars at the bar seating. A constant rotation during our breakfast.
As to my limited posts these last 5 weeks….moving stinks.😬 In between helping real estate clients, which I love, we’ve been tackling projects at our new home, which I don’t love. I posted some on my “stories”. Tasks continued popping up, even when I thought we were done.
That being said, I’m especially grateful for those who continue to follow an account that’s a bit different. Long write-ups, limited reels/posts, etc. Goal is to post more frequently, as it gets Colt and I out and about! Plus, otherwise: “your post was shown to 97 of 42K followers”. Haha. Thank you for continuing to support LovingStPete and local businesses!

Mike Braswell is a Tampa Bay Realtor, serving St Petersburg, Clearwater, all nearby beaches and more. Mike started LovingStPete in October of 2020 after a difficult year took its toll on local businesses. After being cooped up for portions of 2020 (lockdown) Mike and his son decided to get out and explore, helping spread the good word about the local area he loves so much. Often even doing gift card giveaways to support local. LovingStPete is now followed by over 48 thousand people on social media! The majority of posts are informative on fun parks, activities, day trips, great restaurants, and in general provide a comprehensive tour of the area!

Soon after receiving his bachelors in Management Information Systems, Mike developed and then operated a vacation rental advertising business for 10+ years as CEO/Owner. The business was eventually acquired by VRBO. Mike has earned the trust of many large clients over the years. Such as NFL, Wynn Resorts, Blue Cross Blue Shield, VISA, Genuine Parts Company (NAPA Auto Parts), AT&T, and other Fortune 500 companies.

When not spending time with his beautiful wife and energetic son, Mike enjoys boating and is also an avid tennis player. An interesting fact about Mike is that he grew up on an avocado farm with over 15 varieties, some of which you can find in our local Publix/Winn Dixie as his dad still farms the same farm at 87 years old!
