    Delicious BBQ sandwich!

    Great people and delicious food! First time getting a sandwich and it didn't disappoint.

    Fettuccine Shrimp. The only recent pic on my phone but so buttery and fresh!

    This is the best restaurant in Fort Wayne. Fight me. Seriously, the hand crafted menu they serve every weekend keeps my husband and I on the edge of our seats. We love checking the Facebook page to see what divine creations they will be serving up next. The sumptuous homemade bread and butter they present before your meal is outstanding. It's light, fluffy and has just a twang of that sourdough flavor. And the butter is always airy and delightful which makes it perfect to spread onto the aforementioned bread. I'm not writing this review to tell you to "get this when you come", simply because they rarely have the same item twice. I've been coming here for 2+ years and every meal has been a winner. Bless you Old Crown, not only are you the most delicious and original restaurant in FTW, but your value and service makes this place a better town.

    Cool pinball machines... bring your quarters!

    Neat concept (coffee shop + bar + arcade), but falls short on execution. Menu above counter does not give drink details and the line moves incredibly slow (1 person on counter, 1 on bar). No real breakfast options, but the dinner options sounded interesting. No complaints on the iced dirty chai... I'd give another try for lunch or dinner.

    Always a joy. The quality coffee and wide beer and drink selections have made this place a must stop when we return to FW.

    This was my second time coming and my first time was great. I had a cubano the first time I went…read moreand it was awesome, great sandwich lots of flavor and good service. My second time however was different, i was handed a business card that was covered in some sauce, the kitchen looked dirty through the window and the owner seemed a little loss. I ordered the NY Philly cheese steak, potato salad and I was given a beef stew sample. The potato salad was good, it's hard to mess that up. I took one bite of the beef stew and threw it away, it was not something I'd ever order from there, it was sweet and just tasted off. The cheesesteak, that costed me like 15 dollars by the way, looked incredible when I opened up my container. But when I took a bite, I cringed and coughed because it was so incredibly salty. I could only get through half my sandwich before I had to spit it out it was that salty. If it wasn't so salty I'm sure it would've been good but it was all you could taste and it was so overwhelming.

The owner came to the window, opening it with dirty hands and chewing on food while he was talking to us... then continued to make our food without washing his hands. Do not recommend

    We were recently craving Mediterranean food and didn't know where to go. Of course Instagram would…read moreshow us this place. When you first pull into the parking lot, you don't think much of it as the building next to the convenience store is abandoned. It does not have a beautiful façade but when you walk in, it's a mom and Pop small ethnic grocery store. You order your food at the counter. The menu is kind of limited however there is quite a bit of healthy options. We went with the lamb kebab over rice and the gyro sub. unfortunately, I did not realize that the prices go up if you pay with credit card, so remember to bring cash if you want to save money. After you place your order you can wander this very small aisles to look at a variety of different drink options, etc. The food did take a little bit longer than expected to prepare. The lamb kebab over rice was delicious and had the perfect balance of spice. The sub itself unfortunately was a little disappointing. Maybe I'm not familiar with New York style subs, but I found the bread to be underwhelming and the actual ingredients inside the sub to be slightly disappointing. I think it would be better to serve the euro in a pita. I don't know about the other sandwiches that other people rave about however, maybe I will try that the next time we come in with cash, of course.

    First time trying the Lake Ave Halal Market. They guys welcomed me and got to making my sandwich…read moreright away. I seriously could have saved the other half for later, but I decided not to tap. Still full 6 hours later! I will be going back, food was great!
