The last few years has been hard on Jack’s Coffee Shop. Between medical issues, the pandemic, and the struggles of being a small business owner, one of Wichita’s most classic hole-in-the-wall restaurants announced they have closed. It was a tumultuous handful of years that had multiple closings, but this one appears permanent.
Located at 6154 S Hydraulic St., Jack’s Coffee Shop was one of those you had to know exactly where you were going or else you’d miss the place. They were a no-frills burger joint that for the longest time only served burgers and a bowl of chips, despite having ‘coffee shop’ in their name. It was a favorite of many diners in Wichita looking for an unassuming vibe and a burger that would fill you up for days.
The announcement was posted on their Facebook page Friday afternoon.
Jack’s Coffee Shop will be missed.

Man talk about the best Greasy Spoon Hamburger. I will miss these.
I tried to eat here but the mouse droppings on the floor were a turn off. Started laughing at the God awful look of the place and walked out. Friends that did eat here said they’d often get a burger that was still very pink in the middle. Can’t say I have any feelings about it closing either way. Still plenty of burger dives on that end of town.
