The two waitresses that were working were running around like crazy and doing such an amazing job. The food was terrific also. We had the burger and the chicken sandwich. Both were delicious. The onion rings are to die for. Will definitely be going back here. Loved it.“

“On September 23, 2023 we held a birthday party for my mother to celebrate her 90th birthday. We chose to have the celebration at the Fair Lawn Athletic Club for several reasons. In 1998 we celebrated my parents 40th wedding anniversary at the FLAC. In October 2022 we held a repast for my father at the FLAC, and as mentioned above, we just recently had a celebration for my mother at the FLAC with almost 100 friends and family in attendance .The reason we choose the FLAC is because Mike and Maura Campanile do an Excellent job with the events at the FLAC. They provide great service, great food, great communication in the time leading up to, as well during the event , and of course the bar serves up Great drinks!There are many places you can obviously choose to have events and celebrations at. We feel very comfortable knowing that Mike and Maura will ensure the event runs smoothly with their staff, providing great service and support.I would highly recommend the FLAC for any of your events.“

Buffalo Chicken Pizza

“Food was delicious but what really sold me on this place was their customer service. I called last week during not only snowy weather but a football game too. They were so swamped but the guy who answered my call was super accommodating and squeezed my order in so me and my kids didn’t have to wait over an hour for them to even start making the meal let alone deliver. He said give them til 430 (a little less than an hr from when I called which is great for a weekend) Our food got there exactly on time when he said it would, the driver was so nice and the food was yummy!“

“This place is super cute and the food is good! Beware that they do not serve pork so bacon and chorizo types of dishes is replaced with Turkey. I ordered the huevos rancheros - everything so was tasty but my sunny eggs were a touch under (the egg whites on top were not cooked so the clear sack slid off). Also, the turkey chorizo is a patty rather than crumbles so it was hard to cut and a little dense. But the flavors of all of the sauces were divine! My bf ordered the churros french toast - it was more like a dash of cinnamon but we really liked it because nothing was too sweet and they put tons of fruits on it! Latte was good and pretty but they didn't ask if we wanted any sweeteners in it and didn't bring us sugar or anything so we had to ask for it.“
