Very good food! The hash browns were wonderfully seasoned and the perfect amount of crisp to them! We sat outside-- it's still a nice spot, but sad that they did away with the really great/decorated set up they had around COVID times. Service was fair.
I stopped by here for a post-hike meal this past Saturday afternoon. Coincidentally, the best kosher pizza I've ever had (disclaimer - I'm not Jewish/kosher, but I've had my share of kosher food over the past year) is right down the street at Zevy's, but obviously that was a no-go on a Saturday. Without doing any prelim research, I walked down the street, saw that this place had a legit breakfast menu that I was in the mood for, and wandered in. The interior is pretty generic, basically your average diner though it didn't look rundown or divey. I made eye contact immediately with a waiter, who told me to sit wherever I wanted, and I was assisted shortly thereafter. Like a diner, the menu is fairly lengthy, with options for any meal in the day. After going back and forth on a few egg-centric dishes, I settled on the California Benedict ($14), which unsurprisingly featured avocado, as well as bacon. I liked the Benedict portion, though it was a little small for my appetite - that's partly from the hike, but you can see from the picture that it's practically dwarfed by the accompanying home fries. I'd upgrade to a slightly larger sized egg and biscuit/English muffin (not sure which it was) if only to make the optics a little better. The home fries were just okay - they were cooked fine, but I had to douse them with a healthy sprinkling of pepper, which I rarely do. Adding some seasoning into the cooking process would go a long way with them, especially since it's such a generous helping. The service was very good. I was thirsty (see above references to hike), and the waiter kept my water glass from completely emptying as I rehydrated. It didn't take long to order or get my food, and he also stopped by once or twice to check in. There was an additional employee who was assisting with bussing the tables, and that certainly helped as well. Honestly in the post-COVID era, when is the last time you saw a place arguably OVERstaffed? The price point was reasonable in my estimation as well. I'm not too familiar with Fair Lawn (this was my first time in their downtown area), but it's probably a LITTLE more blue collar than some of its neighboring towns, and the prices likely reflect that. Very pleasant meal that hit the spot though - I would have no issue returning if another Eggs Benedict-related hankering arose.
We arrived at Fisher's Cafe around 9am on a Saturday morning. There were about 3 occupied tables, what I imagine is a fairly slow morning for a breakfast spot. We sat down, and it took over 5 minutes for us to get our menus - wet and sticky, at that. We waited again to order - three very simple breakfast items (two breakfast platters and pancakes with fruit). After waiting 30 minutes for our food, I noticed they had just put the pancakes on the griddle. With a toddler and an infant (who was getting increasingly agitated, sitting at an empty table with no food), we finally asked that they pack our food to go. No apologies for the late service, no acknowledgment that we'd been waiting over half an hour for bacon, eggs, and toast. To add insult to injury, they had the audacity to charge $6 for this amount of fruit ($7.95 for pancakes with coffee, $13.95 for "fruity patootie" - the same pancakes with fresh fruit - no coffee). I'm a mom so I know the cost of fruit has gone up, but this does not warrant a $6 up-charge. As they started packing our order, we noticed the gentleman who had walked in 15-20 minutes after us was already eating his food. Maybe because he hugged the owner/staff when he arrived? Who knows. An hour and $45 later, we went home to put the baby down for a nap and to eat our cold, soggy breakfasts. We had contemplated leaving without the food and canceling our orders, but didn't want to do that to a small business. It's too bad they didn't have the same level of courtesy for our family. We had high hopes for Fisher's Cafe from the reviews, but we probably won't be back again.
A hidden gem. I went with a group of three for lunch and we immediately were greeted by the employees upon entering. The atmosphere inside is nice- cute decor and music playing. The music is at an ideal volume to allow you to enjoy it while also allowing for conversation. The menu has so many good options it was difficult to choose. I ordered cafe con leche (coffee with milk) which was good. My sister ordered an iced caramel latte which she loved. As my meal I ordered the California eggs Benedict and an extra side of bacon which were really good. My only comment is that the staff should have provided a sharper knife to cut through the English muffin for my dish. Service was great. The server was friendly and very attentive. He filled our waters and coffee without us having to ask and came by to check if we needed anything without being overbearing. They have an outdoor seating area in the back. We will definitely return!
Fishers café is walkable for me. We went here for breakfast around 10 AM. Plenty of seating and attentive service. The menu is wide and varied with typical diner fare. The eggs Benedict was pretty good. Coffee was pretty good, too. There's a back patio for when the weather is warm. There's parking across the street or right in front. If you're in Fair Lawn, it's a solid bet.
Plenty of parking in the back of the restaurant. Outside dining as well. I ordered the California egg Benedict, the egg was cooked to perfection & the bacon was crispy. They didn't add the avocado which it was suppose to come with. The potato hash was very good too. Mediterranean omelette was very tasty, not to heavy. Nice local restaurant.
Came here after spending some time in town and was looking for a hearty breakfast, and this hit the spot! I had the Jeff omelette and it was amazing: the pico de Gallo was so fresh and balanced very well with the mushrooms inside. I also love how they added their potatoe hash on the side - such a great compliment to the meal. I also had the waffles and fresh berries and that was good, although, aired more on the dense side than "fluffy/airy." Service was okay, waiter did not come back after initially bringing the meal, but the food is definitely work a trip back.
This is my second time visiting Fisher's Cafe. The first time they were closed at 3pm, though on google it says 8pm. They must've been on break. Either way, I'll be returning. As you walk into the restaurant the scenery and ambiance is really nice, you can tell they paid attention to the details. 7/10 The service is great once someone finally speaks to you. I believe that this is a small family business where everyone chips in and I love to see that! In my experience, I got my own menu, sat myself and ordered at the front. It would be nice to be greeted by someone. 7/10 AND THE FOOOOOOD 8.5/10 I ordered the tostones with guacamole for starters which I really enjoyed. The guac was fresh and tasty, could've used a bit more seasoning for my liking. I ordered the crispy chicken panini and it was indeed crispy, good temperature, cheesy and delicious! The serving of fries were relatively small.
Never noticed this place and I've been in this area since 1989! You really miss it, if you are not looking for it. Tried it for lunch and it was very good. Most people seemed to be ordering breakfast type foods but I got a Philly Cheesesteak and Cheese fries (I had a craving). Both were very good. The Philly Cheesesteak was NOT a traditional Philly Cheesesteak of thinly sliced steak meat .. but more like a strip steak that was cut up into smaller chunks and then put on a round kaiser roll. Still, it was good and the portions were decent. The fries did NOT come with the sandwich so lunch, including coffee was $20, not including tip. Still, it was good and the burgers I saw looked delicious, too so I'll have to come back and try a few different things. I don't think there was any salt on the fries, which I could have added myself - but didn't. Hey, I'm trying to eat healthy haha. Loved the the old-school diner atmosphere and also the classic rock from the 70's playing (I'm old!). Only one cook and a waitress but it wasn't a long wait. The cook was moving very fast and I was impressed with his skills. He was working his tail off. I sat at the counter but there are several booths, too. Haven't seen the outdoor seating yet. Looks nice, from the pictures I saw. Posting a pic. How delicious does that look???
We came in for breakfast before errands Saturday morning. Saw a sign on the door that they were currently only accepting Cash or Zelle payments. We have Zelle through TD, so we still went in. Fisher's is where you go for the basics done right. No fuss or frills, just good breakfast food. Worth checking out - it might turn into your go-to diner.
Such a nice cafe shop with a huge menu! There is plenty of street parking around the restaurant and we have arming in the back. The staff was so friendly and attentive. There is so much to choose from we need a few minutes to order. The omelette was cooked to perfection. My toast was a little over done but they everything else was tasty. They have long open hours for a cafe shop which we really liked. Everything is cooked to order. Coffee was made fresh to order as well.
Outside seating is so cute and the restaurant smelled so good from the parking lot so I was very excited to try it. Needless to say that's where my excitement ended. We walked in the waitress stated they had a large party so the food would take a while. We waited probably 10-15 minutes for the menus and again for water to come. I asked how long the food would come out before ordering because if it would have taken a long time we would have just left. The waitress said probably 15 minutes since the large party already got most of their food, so I figured that wasn't too bad. But an hour later and the food still isn't here. Honestly if you have a big party and can't manage other guests too then you shouldn't be open to the public. Two waitresses came by to apologize for the wait. One had her mask under her nose the whole time!! What's the point of wearing it ?? I understand they are very busy but it's still not okay to make guests wait that long and give false wait times. The food came out 1 hour and 30 mins waiting for the food. My boyfriend ordered an Italian Panini with out onions and he had to correct the waitress twice, the first time she had down an omelette ? But when it came out there were onions and incorrect fries. I ordered the shrimp fajitas which were actually good. The shrimp had a lot of flavor and the rice was well made. Also when the food came we asked for the check right away since every thing took so long. The waitress came back around but didn't have the check we asked her again she just looked at us and walked away. Cute spot but I would never return. I never had service like that before. Would not recommend.
Came across this spot passing through. Diner food, it was ok. Couple of omelets & Gyro platter. Clean place service ok.
Loved this place. We were in the neighborhood for a funeral. Looked up our trusted helpers reviews and came here. I am very appreciative for the reviewers direction. This was well worth it. Reasonably priced nice environment. It's a small cozy very pleasant experience. Thanks guys! We enjoyed our breakfast and will come back. read more

This location is a hidden gem for outdoor dining. Beautiful setup, wonderful service and great coffee and food. Their Iced Coffee was excellent and not watered down like most places that just add ice to hot coffee. The corned beef hash was some of the best I've ever had. This is my first time here but will not be my last. read more

Fisher's Cafe is basically a mini diner, except it has even better food and is cheaper! They have a massive list of breakfast items--- omelets, benedicts and other breakfast items all for under $10. They also serve lunch as well. I'm always one to order an omelet at a diner and am usually disappointed. Diners just don't seem to grasp how to make a fluffy, not dried out omelet or quality hash browns. Good news, Fishers does!! While the environment is a smaller and uglier than most diners, the food definitely makes up for it. I've experienced both terrible and great service so it's kind of a hit of miss depending on how large the crowd is that day. Either way, I'm still a big fan and would recommend it over diners in the area! read more

The food is always good, but the coffee was cold, there were ants all over our outdoor table, and the service is tortoise-like. Only go if you can afford to wait 15 minutes for drinks and 45 minutes for your order. read more

Cute little breakfast spot. Parking in rear or on the street. Their prices are pretty cheap and their menu is actually surprisingly extensive. Their eggs benny is apparently the home run for this place but I haven't tried it yet. I've only been here once and I had the omelette with broccoli, bacon and cheddar cheese. It was quite enjoyable. I'd definitely come back here and try more of their menu. Also, I love that they have the hash brown option instead of just regular breakfast potatoes. read more

I've been wanting to check this cafe out and successfully dragged my bae here this morning. He kept on asking "Why can't we just go to a normal diner??" and all I got to say is wait until we get to Fisher's Cafe and see for yourself. He ended up really liking it ;) Fisher's Cafe has a bit of the diner feels and a bit of the brunch cafe feels. Very friendly and attentive waitstaff, and I can tell some of the other customers have been coming here every day and known everyone name.We ordered Irish Egg Benedict and Town Special. Really good breakfast/brunch food for very reasonable price. Definitely the kind of breakfast/brunch place that I can patronize for a long time ;) read more

This is my favorite local breakfast spot. Great place for an easy no-fuss breakfast just the way you like it. The two guys that run the place are always welcoming and never let your coffee run low. There are definitely a lot of "regulars" that come to the cafe because everyone knows one another - which is a good thing. The atmosphere is warm and friendly, which is a nice change from the large diners in the area. Don't be surprised if you end up striking a conversation with a stranger in the stool next to you, it happens more often than not. The food is cooked on a grill right behind the counter so everything is always fresh and hot. The food looks more like a Sunday breakfast cooked at home and less commercialized and IHOP-esque. (Although IHOP does have some excellent breakfast dishes. ) Portions are more than adequate although I haven't tried their lunch or dinner menus yet. read more

This is has quickly become one of my favorite breakfast/lunch spots. My boyfriend and I came here once on a whim just to try it out and it was such a great experience. First off, the coffee is amazingly good--we couldn't stop drinking it! It was near the closing time but the staff was so friendly and even brewed us a fresh pot of coffee (after we'd already had probably 3 cups each). The omelettes are really good- not over cooked like most places but nice and tender. We've been back a couple more times since and I just can't say enough good things about this place. Highly recommend. read more

Tried Fisher's for the first time and unfortunately the quality of the food did not live up to its expectations. The waffles that we ordered were burnt and stale. Our children couldn't eat it. The hash browns were completely burnt. The sausage, egg, and cheese is consisted of sausage links, not a sausage patty. They also forgot our coffee. read more
This place is amazing for brunch. I can't believe I never tried it until now. The only drawback I have about this place is that it closes pretty early at 3PM, it would be nice if it was an all day brunch place. The menu is pretty extensive everything from waffles to salads. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about everything in such an extensive menu. Prices are very reasonable, we paid less than $25 for 3 people. The interior is pretty small and narrow but very cozy like a good brunch place should be. There are booths on the side and tables in the front. I ordered a veggie omelette and subbed mashed potatoes for cucumbers & tomato. It was a heavenly omelette stuffed with tons of veggies, one of the best I've ever had. Can't wait to go back. read more

This family owned establishment takes pride in the food they serve. They create a family environment and have plenty of regulars eating here everyday. I ordered the steak and eggs and silver dollar pancakes. The steak was really well seasoned and the pancakes were buttery and tasty (they served you about 8). They also take requests. If you don't see anything in the menu you like, just ask and if they can, they'll create it for you. The only thing that made my visit a disappointment was the coffee. It had no flavor and was a bit watery. They also don't serve lattes, cappuccinos or espressos. If they step up the coffee game, 5 stars no question. I will definitely come back here because my food was great and service was A1. read more

This is one of my favorite breakfast spots. I found them maybe a year ago on yelp when I was searching for a place with good eggs Benedict. After my first visit I must have gone every weekend for at least a month straight (I actually found the photo from my first visit. They made me a nice fruit salad as well!) They have a great variety of eggs Benedict as well as other breakfast food. It's a comfortable environment and can be packed or quiet depending on the time of day. They recently made some upgrades to the decor and furniture with a great chalk wall and some nice glass and iron embellishments. The guys who run it are so friendly and nice. Several times I have walked in and they don't even hand me a menu, they know I want eggs benny and a Snapple! ;) They also don't rush you, even on a busy day. I've gone with family and friends and by myself. I can take my time with my breakfast, read a book or watch a show. I always enjoy my time at Fisher's. My new favorite menu item is the French toast. It's just perfect (big kick of cinnamon). I love to add fresh strawberries too it. And they do a variety of breakfast foods and have great lunch options as well. Some of my family's favorite items are the Boulevard Special, the omelettes, breakfast sandwiches, and burgers. You really can't go wrong here. read more

Love my local breakfast spot. They have a varied menu ranging from breakfast to lunch choices. Some of their omelets are excellent. Their coffee is solid. And they have turkey bacon! They also have specials that are pretty good. Great prices and great value overall. This is a very casual place, similar to a diner. read more

I truly wish I knew about the Fisher's Cafe sooner! I have been getting my nails done for about two years now just two doors down from here and I have never noticed this little gem before. I came in on a Saturday after I got my nails done around 2:30 PM not realizing they close at 3 PM. I walked into an almost empty cafe with one or two people still eating, I checked with the waitress to see if they were still serving and she assured me to sit down. I sat at a near by table and took a look at the menu. The first thing I noticed was all the different variations of eggs benedict along with one of my personal favorite breakfast items huevos rancheros. The menu mainly caters to breakfast and lunch items. I was craving eggs over easy and noticed they had a Town Special which is two eggs, home fries, toast and choice of bacon, taylor ham, ham or sausage along with coffee/tea and a small juice all for $7.49! That's a steal if you ask me. I placed my order and it was ready in just a short amount of time. The wait staff here is extremely attentive and never left my coffee cup empty. I love when breakfast spots leave an ample amount of grape and strawberry jelly on the table as well. I am all about grape jelly on my toast! My eggs were cooked perfectly and my bacon crisp and delicious. The home fries I prefer a little well done but that was my fault for not mentioning it, they were still extremely tasty. I really can't wait to come back with my friends and introduce them to this little gem I've found. I also got to meet the owner Hungria and he was an absolute pleasure. P.S. - They were giving out roses and balloons to mothers on Mothers Day super sweet and thoughtful read more
