Husband and I did a day trip to Bainbridge and found ourselves hungry for some lunch when I found Jake's Pickup on Yelp. This eatery is located in a gas station, but don't let that deter you. Lots of parking outside and plenty of shaded picnic table seating. Inside, the eatery is located in the corner with a menu of to-order items. They also have a fridge stocked with grab and go items and a pastry window with cookies and scones. Order at the counter, then pay at the gas station till. We decided to order 2 OMC's off their menu. The friendly cashier suggested we add Jake's homemade hot sauce to our sandwiches, which turned out to be a beautiful addition to the sandwich. To my understanding, everything here is made from scratch by Jake, including the buns. The sandwich was super fresh and the hot sauce added a lovely smokiness. We also enjoyed a scone and a cookie, both of which were fresh but okay as sugar was the predominant flavor. I found myself wishing for some flaky sea salt on my cookie to balance the sweetness. All-in-all we will definitely be back on another Bainbridge visit to try more menu items.

Jake's Pickup has become a bit of an island icon with their eclectic and yummy offerings. It's particularly nice that they make many items available for sale even outside of their regular operating hours, so if you get a hankering for something late at night you can just pop by to grab what's on offer. We love that they do custom orders, too -- for example, we wanted a gluten free pecan pie for Thanksgiving one year, and boy did they deliver!

Dynamite Food. Cod sandwich! Pulled pork! Deviled eggs! The Sconenuts! You gotta eat here!

Be aware that the hot food is only Monday through Friday from 11-2. Cold food in the cases is available as long as the convenience store is open.

We are so delighted to have Jake's back! As far as we're concerned, the best sandwiches and sides on Bainbridge Island. And just as good as the food, Jake and the staff are friendly, talented, creative and enthusiastic. Thank you Jake's!

I don't write reviews often, but I had to give Jakes Pickup praise. One of the best burgers I have had in a long time. If you are a fan of burgers, you are missing out if you don't stop by jakes Pickup. I can't review there other menu options because I haven't had them but i am betting there good.

2 gas pumps refused my credit card. when i went in to see attendant they said it showed transaction ok, ready to go. Not true at pump. Also used up my Safeway rewards without getting gas. attendant just shrugged his shoulders.

Fresh , homemade , fabulous sandwiches, healthy soups and other starter dishes to add to at home and —their own ice cream. Places like these make it easy to leave the cooking to them. Jake and his wife are the hardest-working people I know andmade it through the pandemic. Support the best…

Quick. Fresh. Clean. I didn't have a whole lot of time in between appointments and I needed a QUICK lunch on Bainbridge Island. The quick dining options were limited so I took a chance on Jake's Pickup, located in the convenience store portion of a Chevron station. I chose well.The sandwiches, while grab-and-go, were fresh and tasty. I noticed containers of soup in the refrigerated section that had I a cooler in my car, I would have taken home for dinner that night.The tables outside were clean and a nice place to eat so I didn't risk spilling all over the front of myself by eating in my car.
Great little gem hidden away in the corner with great sandwiches, salads and desserts to pick up and go!

Great selection of foods with personal touch and kind workers.

This food is seriously the best! And they have a super cute kids book too! These locals are stellar people and work hard to make their menu items stand out. The macaroni salad is my absolute favorite! Definitely not something you will find near any other gas station! It's quality tasting ingredients with a homemade touch.

I went today and there’s no longer hot sandwiches. There’s no much info other than a fridge with premade sandwiches :(

Wish I got a chance to try their food. Says they are open until 9pm. Traveled 35 miles to eat here and they were closed by 6pm.
