We enjoy coming here. It's easy, the atmosphere is chill, the food is good. Nice diner spot. The came under new management a while ago, but the staff is just as nice as ever. Food usually comes out quick. Lots of options to choose from. I am usually a breakfast person, so when in the area, always try and hit this spot. The close just after lunch, so breakfast and lunch are their thing. I got the pancakes, mmm so good. I enjoy a good pancake. The potatoes are good too. My husband got a bacon, egg, cheese sandwich. Easy, delicious. Always a nice experience when else eat here. read more

I drive by here all the time and knew eventually I would stop in and enjoy breakfast one day. I love supporting small businesses over dining at a chain. On a Saturday morning, my boyfriend and I dined here around 9am. We were lucky to score one of the few parking spots since there isn't many and parking is tight. Upon walking in, I was fairly surprised at the size of the place inside since it looks much smaller from the outside. Service was pretty decent. Not overly personable, but had what we needed. I ordered a scrambled egg plate with patty sausage, home fries, and a blueberry muffin. The blueberry muffin was my favorite, it was really good. The home fries were less desirable. I wish they were crisper and maybe had onions with them to add more flavor. My boyfriend ordered his breakfast with an extra order of toast and we had to ask our server to bring it out because it was forgotten about. The food could of overall used more seasoning. Also for the quantity and quality, I thought it was very expensive. read more

I have been coming to this diner for a few years now. I usually get the 2 eggs with corned beef hash, which is amazing. They also have great French toast and omelettes. The staff are are always friendly and courteous. It feels like I am at one of the many diners back home with the regulars bantering across the rooms. read more

To try something new for a weekend breakfast/brunch, we ventured out to Fairbanks Restaurant. From the reviews, I was worried we wouldn't be able to get a table, but we got there around noon on a Sunday and it there were plenty of tables available. The small standalone building doesn't look like much from the outside, but the inside looks a bit more modern, like it was renovated a few years ago. It's a local breakfast place with the normal breakfast options. They have a decent selection of breakfast and lunch options. I tried the Hopple Popple, which was a mixture of potatoes, eggs, onions, bacon, and cheese. It was plenty of food, and the service was great. I enjoy finding little hidden places that aren't your typical breakfast joints, but offer a good selection of items. read more

This is a small family owned place. When you walk in, sign says sit anywhere. The booth I was sitting on was tilted to one side so couldn't sit in the middle of the bench. The service was nice and food comes out quick. The grits needed more seasoning. The pancakes were nothing special. My husband enjoyed their French toast. For the price of food, we would go back. I wish they had flavored creamer for their coffee though. Maybe add to the wish list? Thanks. read more

It is a pretty well-known fact that it is nearly impossible to get a seat at a decent dinner on any given Saturday morning to enjoy a good breakfast. Unless, of course, you are willing to wait for a long time to be seated. So on our way to Winter Park, we drove past this place on Fairbanks and decided on a whim to give it a try. A quick check of Yelp reviews confirmed our choice, and we ventured into the place. We got seated immediately and enjoyed a wonderful breakfast meal served with a smile and warm hospitality. Good food, and good service, a wonderful 5-star combination. read more

Fairbanks Restaurant - Diners Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

Simple, basic diner. Good is good. I've had breakfasts and lunches here and have been satisfied. Servers are pleasant and food is as expected. Nothing really special, but everything is "as expected". Parking can be a little bit of a challenge, as their lot is small. read more

I've been working in Winter Park for a while now and finally decided to try this restaurant. It is a small, local business that might not get your attention as you're driving down Fairbanks ave. Do yourself a favor and stop by. The staff is super friendly and their food is good. The building might seem a bit dated outside, but the inside looks good, clean and accommodating. I made a takeout order, since I was in a hurry. Got the fairbanks omelette and 1/2 order of biscuits and gravy. The food was warm, good and tasted good. Best of all, their prices are very reasonable (based on today's economy) and portion size is great. I can say that I had an awesome breakfast today and will definitely go back. This is a small business worth supporting. They offer a great product at a good price. read more

The farmers omelette was different from others I've seen at other restaurants. This one had cubed hash brown potatoes baked into the omelette. It was quite delicious. The restaurant was clean and well maintained. The servers were very good and pleasant. I'm looking forward to coming back again. read more

Fairbanks Restaurant - Fairbanks Breakfast Special - Diners Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

We were on our way to have brunch at a very popular spot and noticed this little neighborhood place. Since all we wanted was an omelette and some hash browns, we absolutely gave it a try. Our omelettes were solid, I had Spinach and Feta, and my hubby had the Veggie. Since I can't have gluten they were happy to substitute the toast for tomatoes. Very nice staff, it was busy but not overcrowded. It was EXACTLY what we wanted and will definitely come back. read more

The three star rating does not mean this is a bad place. It's actually quite nice with its renovations and homestyle feel. The food was good just as if I would cook it at home but with a little less flavor. Customer service was attentive, and lots of people were always coming in, so this place is never without business. Prices are fair and I would prefer homestyle cooking at this restaurant over some chain breakfast restaurants. The renovation inside definitely makes a big difference as the outside does not look like much. Parking is very limited and small so if you have a big party get there early. But I would stop in again. read more

My favorite diner in Winter Park. I love their omelets and my wife goes for the Reuben most every visit.

This is my family's favorite breakfast restaurant. Super unsuspecting spot from the outside but the inside is cute and clean. When you enter you can seat yourself anywhere you'd like. The food is very much diner food in the best way and affordable in my opinion. They have weekday lunch specials, soups and a decent amount of breakfast options. read more

I've written a lot of great reviews but today, not so much...absolutely the WORST diner experience to date. On an A-F grading Overall food: C- Overall cleanliness: C My order: F (just gross) Service: F Average: D My food was horrible. It was supposed to be biscuits and gravy however the gravy was a really odd gelatinous pile of goop drowning two small chalky hard biscuits. I tried repeatedly attempted to get the servers attention but was ignored while she attended to to go orders and cashiering. When it was time to be presented with a check I was finally able to provide the information that my food was unacceptable and ice cold now. The solution of course was to pick up my dish and say oh Fine OK... I'll take it back. Never once did I get the chance to say oh I'd actually like to eat this morning hence why I came in to the restaurant you know to eat breakfast. And then we never see our server again. Our server was our cashier and I even had the honor of PAYING for the meal she took away. There was no acknowledgement that I didn't have a good experience or even get to eat for that matter. To add insult to injury as we stood outside the diner awaiting to leave we literally watched the elderly white lady with gray hair mock me and to other diners. Unquestionably the most ridiculous act of childish behavior you can imagine. Here are some expectations for your visit should you choose... -Tables will be slightly cleaned off -Food will be iffy -Service will be terrible This is around the corner from my house and I so wanted it to be a great experience; it was not at all. I don't recommend at all. read more

We went Sunday before the crowd and had a good experience! After a noticeable change in quality and service lately at some of the chain breakfast locations we came back to the local diner. Simple food done right. Only complaint was country music on the whole time, thankfully volume was low. read more

Great little " locals all-American diner"! Food is well prepared, great relaxed atmosphere, and friendly service!!! What more can you ask for? These kind of places are rare, but should be supported as they are a reflection of great days long past!!!! read more

Fairbanks Restaurant - Chicken Fried Steak with Country Gravy - Diners Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

Old school diner with value driven prices. It's appears clean and the service was polite and fast.

Not impressed with the food or service. Too bad since I was hopeful given how old the establishment is.

It's said that a picture is worth a thousand words. These are nowhere near what this breakfast was worth. The taste after food travels is a great indicator of the quality. I ordered the Fairbanks Omelet with white toast, breakfast potatoes, and an extra side of grits. Everything was wonderful. The omelet which has ham, sausage, peppers, onions and cheddar cheese was so flavorful. The egg was perfectly cooked. The toast was pre buttered and ready for jelly. The potatoes were soft and had a light grill taste. And the grits were creamy enough to TRAVEL, add butter, salt, and cheese and still be delicious. Any place that can make sure their grits do not thicken to the point of no return, is doing something right. I wasn't feeling well. And that is why I had to order via delivery. I cannot wait to dine in. read more

Fairbanks Restaurant - Fairbanks Omelet and Breakfast Potatoes - Diners Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

I ordered coffee and a water with no lemon and no ice. The water came with a lemon wedge on it, i asked for a new water, Samantha just snatched the lemon wedge off the glass and left. I am allergic to lemon so i did not want to drink from the glass. I ordered the Hungry man breakfast with turkey bacon. It came with pork, she snatched the plate and took off the bacon returning the plate with the same sausage link. I could see where the pork bacon had been. Samantha had a serious attitude when i did not eat the food. I went to the counter to pay but she refused to take my payment. She started speaking to her worker in another language. I did know what she said but looking at her gestures it could not have been nice. This is not the first time she has given me bad service. I thought i would give the business a chance since the food is good. This lady has never said anything nice to me. And i noticed she is much nicer to the white patrons. Don't she know that she is considered a migrant , just like me in this great country? I will pray for her. Don't go here if you are a man of color. Well off to ihop!! read more

I love lowkey diner restaurants and food so this is definitely a good spot for that. It's not fancy food just home cooked style. They have all my breakfast favs like French toast, Belgian waffles, Hashbrowns, etc. service is attentive and everyone is pretty nice. Inside is nothing too crazy, lots of seating, they do get busy and you can order to go. Food comes out in good timing. Worth a visit if you are looking for a no fuss spot for breakfast and lunch. read more

Stopped in on Father's Day to enjoy this local, local, local breakfast joint. We were a party of six, service was fast and food tasty. If your visiting the Winter Park area ya gotta stop in. We will be back! read more

Food is a solid B/B- but the staff is super friendly, quick service and you're in and out. The flavors could just be a little better!

Ordered the Hopple for breakfast and was very disappointed. It's supposed to be three eggs with potato, onion, bacon crumbles and cheddar cheese. Three eggs is questionable but only if they are small ones and the entire dish was average, at best. I think it may be under new ownership or management because I've eaten there before (about five years ago) and noticed a big difference between then and now, read more

Very good! Had the corned beef hash with poached eggs & hash browns... corned beef hash is just right. It's not dry like some places. Poached eggs perfect. Hash browns perfect. 5 stars. read more

Great little breakfast spot just north of downtown. Good to get away from the chaos of the touristy area.

Great breakfast local hot spot off Fairbanks in winter park. Get here early on the weekends especially Sunday morning, or expect a wait. You seat yourself and the local crowd that gather there are people like your grandfather and his buddies reminiscing about the good 'ol days. Breakfast is simple and filling. Try their specials located on the far back wall or whatever your server recommends. I tried their 1/2 French toast which came with eggs, home fries or grits, and some type of breakfast meat. I was perfectly full and loved the flavor of the French toast. We also tried their biscuits and gravy which was some traditional and perfectly cooked that we wanted to get more. Highly recommend this place, and even though it may be a small whole in the wall it is worthy trying and coming back again to this local eatery. read more

I've been coming here since I was little! What I will say- the prices & the service can't be beat. They just did a remodel and it looks so nice inside now! The food is classic diner food, my favorite is the biscuits and gravy, home fries, & the chicken salad sandwich! Don't expect anything too fancy, it's just good & simple home cooking. read more

This is eggs..actly your classic quintessential American diner, and my new favorite one, forks down! Lol. Our waitress should get a medal or win an award or something. She's like the best waitress in whole entire World. It's like she could read my mind or something, making all my little breakfast dreams come true. Lol. Deep fried home fries. That's all I have to say. You'll never see the bottom of a coffee cup here. Everything was awesome. Including the experience. read more

This place is great! This is my idea of a classic diner. I love the simplicity of this place. Staff was super welcoming. Plus, our waitress was amazing. Unfortunately, I can't remember her name. She kept refilling our drinks and made excellent recommendations. I ended up getting the smoky ham with eggs and home fries. My meal was tasty. I didn't expect so much food. I had to take home some leftovers. Prices are great. Cheap, cheap breakfast. The amount of food you get for the price is nice. They open and close early. 4.5 stars read more
