Emily JenkinsOctober 18, 2015We've been going here since we moved to NYC, 15 years ago. The silver dollar pancakes are perfect, and the smoked salmon platter is great (the bagels here are soooo good). Great pizza and burgers too- Anthony CaponitiAugust 10, 2013The pancakes are delicious and gluten free! I recommend the Big Boy, but fair warning, the 8 pancakes are small silver dollars. The Turkish Delight is a tasty non-traditional alternative.
Toshihide SatoAugust 25, 2013The pancake was very good. The pancakes are fairly small, so if you are hungry, you might want to order something else as a side dish. Homemade lemonade is good as well.
ℋumorousJuly 20, 2014Order the "Tuna Salad Not on Rye" and eat it with a fork like Alec Baldwin when he popped in with Jerry Seinfeld.

AstoriawinedivaMarch 31, 2012I had high hopes for the Fairway cafe but sadly disappointed by so-so service & the miniscule portion sizes for the prices. Im a huge Fairway Market fan though & will always shop there! Luv 72nd ST.
Nicolò TrentiniNovember 3, 2012Service isn't really good but the food is tasty and i mean tasty. I recommend the steak.
Dea MengersAugust 16, 2014The only gluten free option is pancakes. The noise level is headache causing.
Best burgers! Perfect size and you don't feel like a fat pig after
Check out the silver dollar pancakes - as good as my mom's and hers are hard to beat
María Rós KaldalónsJuly 4, 2013Their strawberry jam is marvelous, however I do not recommend the bacon.
The Corcoran GroupMarch 4, 2011Go during off-peak hours to enjoy a quiet cup of hot cocoa - good for kids.
Get a single cupcake and split it into four pieces. Eat each piece whole. Better than Magnolias!
LuciaAugust 10, 2010The food is decent, but doesn't stand out from other bistros or cafes. The service was excellent, though!
Judy SpivakMarch 26, 2012I don't know why I come back here. The service is mediocre, the portions skimpy.
Debra MattsonNovember 16, 2013The Cafe staff do rude. No stroller policy? Really? What if we had a wheelchair?
