Nothing says "Home" like fairfix!!! The grilled chicken sandwich has gotten even better (amazingly juicy and tender) their salad dressing is the best. read more

I needed a quiet solid place to study for a while so i decided to go in Fairfix and hang for a bit. I ordered the tofu burger, which is pretty good and some iced coffee, decent. Warning: if you decide to go mid afternoonish on a weekday, you might get the flock of highschoolers just getting out of school which tends to get a bit loud but overall a good spot. Customer service is okay. A couple that need to work on being genuinely kind to ALL customers not just the ones they like. read more

The food was quite good and the service was also great! We ordered the Lobster Mac and Cheese, and the Fresh Poached Salmon Piccata. Both were the well made, but especially the salmon, which was well cooked. We also arrived late and stayed past the hours of the cafe and they were still very hospitable. Worth it if you're in the area and looking for something quiet with a nice ambiance (outdoor patio!) read more

Great salads always & don't even get me started on the bagels I usually get mine with cream cheese tomatoes and onions oweee so darn scrumptious! read more

I have been coming here for many years. Great, fresh, lots of vegetarian dishes. Staff is polite and very good. Try the Shakshuka a Middle Eastern egg dish with a real tasty sauce and pita bread to eat it in. All of there food is good read more

The staff and owners are anti European!! We are European classical musicians. The manager, a small man from Central America, listened to our conversation and was obectionable on later visits. Extreme predujice here. So we patronized the place as much as possible to annoy the jerk. read more

Sweet easy place to be -- But lets talk about the chicken.... What is that spongey stuff??? read more

Cheap, folksy and honest. It's easy to see why this is a local hang-out all day every day. At the height of activity it's a busy little lunch spot. What one doesn't expect is that it that stays open late and also serves the night crowd. Good selection of sandwiches and drinks and decent service too. I have not been here for WiFi but I don't think I will, it's a little loud. I'm a Mill Valley Library (aka Hogwarts) kinda girl. read more

We visited FairFix Cafe for the first time last week and were visiting from out of town. The cafe offered a wide range of wine selections and a very pleasant menu. We loved that the food was sourced organically and much of it local. The cheeses were excellent. Our dinner portion was much more than we had expected which is not something we are used to with this quality of food. Server was attentive and very friendly making us feel right at home. We had lobster mac and cheese and a lovely variety of our choice of meats and cheeses on a beautifully presented charcuterie board. Would definitely recommend!! Nice job! read more

Great local hangout. Chill with the locals. Sip Chai tea and nibble on Mediterranean food. This is Fairfix. Nice friendly staff and the art inside changes frequently, best for lunch. I always order the Mediterranean plate (not salad) as I've ordered a few other items and have been disappointed. I always get it to go, why; maybe the previous reviewer is on to something with the vent issue. It is a little funky inside, I don't know if it's the patrons or the lack of a kitchen fan, but it is a little funky. True, it's a little pricey for what you get, but it's always justified when you chow down on fresh Mediterranean inspired food. Go for it and experience Fairfax at its highest funkiness! Yeah Baby! read more

So, as you can see by my other reviews im becoming more and more keen on Marin eats and treats. But this place is just rad! lets see, they are right in the main drag of one the most incredible little community oriented spots in the bay area, their coffee is delicious, but that's not all. They make homemade soups that will knock your socks off daily, if you're looking for a light breakfast treat their bagel set ups are awesome! Thick slices of creams cheese, and whatever sides you order come on the side and are always super fresh and tasty. the guys who work there are really friendly, and again seem to know everyone. I first moved out here, and dude at the counter was all "your not from around these parts, are ya?"....I said, "not yet"...he said, "welcome, this is a great place to live, with great folks".... read more

My favorite place to grab a bit to eat in Fairfax. I jump between the Mediterranean plate, the Falafel plate and the Hummus plate - all fairly similar. I LOVE their hummus....mmmmm...I'm getting hungry. The free wi-fi is an extra plus. I often head over there late at night for some tea, and time to check my email. The staff is nice, the food is good, the people who eat there are eclectic, down to earth, friendly people. I love this little place; it's become a part of what I consider home :) read more

Savory waffle was recommended by locals and did not disappoint. Pastries were good, too. We visited again for another almond bearclaw... mmmm read more

I love Fairfix. I used to hang out there all the time and they had really good food. It's only due to food allergies I've developed that I don't eat there anymore. However, the people there were always so very kind to me, and I always felt like I got the full value of what i paid for. Meals were very filling. read more

Fairfix melt is soooo good! Lovely cafe ambiance, great location. Nice mellow experience!

Friendly staff, warm clientele, relaxed yet respectful vibe, free wi-fi, good coffee (strong, not bitter), Mediterranean food and great prices! This may very well be my new hang! read more

Fair fix...you are like a second home to me. I love your comfy couches and frequently changing art. I often dream of your fair fix melt and fattoush salad. And the pre-vegan in me still remembers the summer days eating your delicious grilled chicken sandwich with the amazing sweet chili sauce! read more

Very good value. Large portions and healthy salads. I love the Tuna salad and the Mediterranean plate.

Great post-hike or ride nosh. Highly recommend the Mediterranean Platter or Avocado salad, their house dressing is like no other!

Fairfix has great tasty and healthy food, friendly staff, and is comfortable. It used to be like a second living room to my friends and I albeit one that serves good food and where you are sure to, if you live in the area, run into friends or see them strolling about downtown through the large windows. The Fairfix Melt, the Felaffel Sandwhich, and the Avocado Salad are, in my opinion the best things on the menu. read more

Love, love, love the white hot chocolate (so sweet and delicious - always makes me feel wonderful), the orange carrot ginger fresh juice (not too much ginger). And of course the super amazing, so wonderful, best vegetarian sandwich EVER Fairfax melt. I always get it on wheat bread with cheddar cheese. Oh, so wonderful!! read more

This place is great for a good drink in fairfax, I like their chai. The food can be a bit dicey, anything with hummus is great, but some of their sandwiches can be a bit dry. All in all though a great spot - and on a nice day - being in the back outdoor sitting area can't be beat. read more

Great place to have breakfast and lunch. Friendly service. Great food and great flavor. I will come back back everyday if I can.

VENTILATION.....they NEED it. nice people, free wifi, decent enough food menu, crappy coffee (but no big deal, and common outside of the cities these days). open til 11pm, it's an okay place to hang out at and great for Marin. but the air quality is TERRIBLE. i've never once been there when people weren't complaining about it. many i know don't go there for this reason. it's a shame because otherwise it's the only non-bar option in Marin with wifi open kinda late. it's not just the onion and burnt toast smell that most people notice. it's the recooked grease in the air that really gets to me. just get some ventilation....pretty please read more

I am absolutely obsessed with their Cesar salad. Any chance I get, I'm there. However, sadly, I have noticed the last three times I have gone there something has gone wrong... a bug in my salad, a piece of who-knows-what stuck in my ice cube in my fresh squeezed lemonade. Nothing to serious, but enough for me to loose my appetite... however this is an nice cafe to relax in with friends. Also the wifi is not free read more

Worker handling bread with bare hands that just handled money. Unsanitary! Isn't that against some health code? Barely civil workers. Ironically, nice to other rude people only. Weird. Obviously first time there, I asked if they had wifi. They said "yes." Didn't bother to give me the password. Had to find out there was one after I ordered, waited for my food, sat, opened my computer. What does work: spacious, laid-back seating. . . . except at one point, a crowd of teenagers hopped up on sugar (jerky movements, etc.) came in; kinda chaotic energy. read more

I was really craving a hot coco at 930. They close at 10. As i arrive at the doors i see a lock on the door. I did not get my hot coco.they closed earlier.... :( read more

before our hike yesterday, my friend and i grabbed sandwiches from here so we can eat them at the top of the mountain. we got the tofu burger on french roll and the baked tofu sandwich on wheat. both were really good and satisfying, particularly since we were starving by the time we treached the summit of our hike! read more

I live across the street from this usually wonderful little cafe hangout. I don't usually hang out there but I had a big test and its a great place for a study group to go. So four days in a row me and a couple people are in there studying. Pushed two tables together. I alone dropped at least $20 a day on food and drinks. So one night I go up to order some tea. The employee tells me that there is a minimum purchase for internet use . I dont have a computer or a phone that uses internet so I smile and say I dont need the internet. He then says that I always push the tables together and they are super busy and we are staying there too long using tables. I look around at the 6 or so empty tables and smile sweetly and say that I wont do it anymore. I'm a clean cut college student, quiet, considerate etc. Ordering their food all day and yet they were looking for every excuse for me to leave. I don't get it. read more

Wouldn't go anywhere else for my tofu avocado bagel fix! The staff has always been very respectful to me when I visit and generally it is a short wait. read more

Labeled as a Mediterranean restaurant. When I ordered the gyro, I should have been suspicious when I was asked if I wanted it in a tortilla! Someone with me got a grilled cheese--yes, a cheese sandwich as a Med rest. When I first looked at it, I was disappointed that it didn't have cucumbers, a hallmark of the dish. The sauce was wierd and the predominant flavor was ONION. It was bad enough that I didn't finish it. All I can say is that the Indian place across the street started looking really good... read more

Food is good but the people that work there just have a crappy attitude and are not friendly! Sometimes I go just to have the falafel plate but I cringe when I think of having to face those workers at the counter. Cash only but there's a pricey ATM right there in by the register. read more

This place does have good food, but I always wish it was more than it is. There is just something missing in the atmosphere of this cafe. I just wish there was a cool, funky cafe that reflected Fairfax. Maybe it's the staff that lacks funk, or the grungy film on everything. read more

Great lunch. Loved everything we had: yellow split pea soup (yum!), ham, egg, and cheese croissant (big!), and Thai chicken salad (fresh). We will definitely come back again. read more

The couscous plate was refrigerated and thrown into the microwave, and almost $10...not fresh and very dry.

i found this place more of a coffee house, than a cafe. when i came in for lunch, i noticed that newspapers and other reading materials were all scattered in one corner of the cafe by the window and it's quite messy. a posting board can be found at the back towards the bathroom with tons of things for sale, missing pets, tutorials, & etc. a couch and a coffee table (with more newspapers on it) is comfortably situated in the middle of the cafe. we kind of waited long for our food, for there was only one person fixing /preparing the foods. i had their mediterranean salad with generous portion of romaine lettuce, tabouleh, feta cheese, tomatoes, onions and olives, while my friend had a roast beef sandwich. both foods were quite tasty and satisying. read more

We were traveling through Fairfax and needed a place to eat so we stopped in and we're pleasantly surprised about how good the food was. We all had different salads and was impressed, reasonable price also read more

I am so grateful for the delicious fresh reasonably priced salads at Fairfix and for the hospitality to writers that I hesitate to post this BUT. please get the young woman behind the counter some training in handling food. A certificate could be gotten online for less than $10. If language is an obstacle someone could walk her thru it. Thanks! read more

i like this place for the art, the back door patio, the couch, the ability to buy a pot of tea instead of just a cup, and then get refills on hot water, the marble chess board tables,their salads are great! i love the greek or avocado salad, the chili sauce on the chicken sandos,(however the chicken itself is processed :( so ask for a veggie sandwhich and get the chili sauce! and for the ability to just sit in this spot for hours with some friends and talk read more

Food was average. My wife and I split the mediterranean plate and the mediterranean pizza. The plate comes with the usual suspects: pita, hummus, tabouleh, dolmas, feta cheese, salad and falafel. The pita tasted store bought and wasn't anything to write home about and the hummus that we dipped it in was bland. We can get better pita and hummus at trader joes. Falafel was a bit tasteless and dry to boot. All else on the plate was okay. The pizza was actually a little better. Toppings included feta cheese, tomatoe, onion. The bread it came on was warm at least. Prices were very reasonable for the amount of food we got. But something needs to be said for taste. Service was perfectly fine. From other reviews, it sounds like the beverages are a safe bet, but we didn't have any. And it seemed like other patrons drinking their coffees and wired into their laptops were happy enough. Don't think this place is going to get a second chance from us for food. But we could stop in here for a cup of joe or smoothie next time around. Or not. read more
