If your looking for that 'Old School' breakfast diner type vibe, this place is pretty close. I have not been there for anything other than breakfast but the wife and I go back frequently on a Saturday or Sunday mornings when we don't feel like cooking at home. We plan on trying to stop in some time for lunch or dinner. Will update review if we do. read more

I LOVE FALLBROOK. This cafe' is quisitential Fallbrook. Getcha goin' for a "Mr. Ed" day.

Service was amazing! We were seated fast and our drinks immediately served. Our full meals included chicken fried steak and eggs with hash browns, and a biscuit and gravy. My baby had enough food to eat with me! The staff was super friendly. It's the cutest old school diner! I will definitely be back in the future. read more

Really tasty home cooking in an old diner style cafe. Great service & plenty of parking too. Try the homemade chilli....quite exceptional!

The strawberry Belgian waffle is my favorite. I've gotten hash browns and they were pretty good. I stay clear of the eggs. I'm not sure what they put in it, but it's disgusting. One smell and one lick, my stomach started turning. Aside from that, my husband loves the burgers and fries. It can be a little pricey. read more

I just had a three meat burrito. It was a good sized burrito packed with meat, eggs, potato and cheese. It cave with salsa, chopped tomato and lettuce. Service was quick friendly and efficient. I good hearty breakfast for $10 plus tax and tip. I recommend you try their breakfast! read more

We stopped in on a rainy, rainy day this past week, while passing through the town. I had never been to this restaurant before. I had some kind of chicken sandwich that had bacon on it. To be honest, it just tasted ok, but it did look appetizing. Another person in our party had a large Greek salad and it looked great. Friendly and attentive wait staff. I might stop in again if ever in the area. read more

Cool little Cafe. Good food, quality ingredients. Great customer service! Had breakfast menu items, all were great. Definitely interested in trying lunch and dinner menu items o my next visit. Finally some good food in Fallbrook!!! I will definitely be back read more

We were brand new to CA & wanted a good breakfast, not a cheap hotel one. I found this place online. The food was fantastic & portions were big! Service wasn't great, but I would definitely go again because the food was that good. read more

This is my favorite breakfast spot in Fallbrook. The service is friendly and fast. The food is always done right and to die for in the morning. read more

I'm really not sure what all the hype is about this place. It was rather warm in the cafe itself; and I get it- there's a grill back there and this place isn't huge so it wasn't an instant turn off, but then after we sat down and my husband was served coffee in a cup with lipstick on it, I started to think we made a bad choice for breakfast this morning. I ordered the eggs benedict, and it was mediocre at best. I think my husband can make a better eggs benedict at home- so why am I paying for something that I can get better at home in my PJs? Service was good, even though we got dirty cup (lord only knows what else wasn't clean). The only reason this place got three stars out of me was because the service was good, it sure wasn't because of the food. I'm not sure I'd return- perhaps if I was part of a group that really wanted to eat here I wouldn't protest, but I definitely won't be coming back here again on my own. read more

I had the Belgian Waffle with strawberries and whipped cream, it was amazing! It didn't feel heavy eating the entire waffle also. I was visiting Fallbrook because one of my friends came back from his first tour and this place was awesome to sit, eat, and chit chat away. I'll definitely come back!! read more

If you like getting one slice of turkey on a $12 club sandwich, this is for you . But me no . I spoke to both waitress and owner . The owner basically said I was lying. Skip this place . There are many other beautiful restaurants in Fallbrook . I live here and want to give a favorable review but after today the truth is the truth . read more

Worst food I have ever eaten,this place has gone so down hill it's embarrassing.I ordered an omelette and it tasted like rubber.The bacon was so over cooked and ice cold,don't waste your time going here.Come on owners have you even tasted you're own food,Really. read more

This is a great diner with great food, it's the real deal, Order up a Turkey Club with Bacon and you get real roasted Turkey breast, not that rubbery processed stuff. I have to give kudos's to the service, your coffee cup is always full and the service is quick. read more

we just got take out when we ate, but the food was DELICIOUS!! I got the Reuben which was toasted to perfection and the meat was super lean... mmmmm. My friend got the gyro and it was also soo good! Definitely will be back! Great little place. read more

The service lagged a little, considering we were sitting at the bar and the waitresses kept walking by without asking us how we were. But the food was delicious! read more

I've been frequenting Fallbrook Cafe for over a decade now!! It continues to be my go-to place when I just want that warm feeling and great food!!! It's relaxed and the staff are all great!! The owners are fabulous and so friendly!! Everyone who works there knows I'm partial to the tuna melt... and their sourdough bread is wonderful no matter how you have it!! But, there's nothing better than a Saturday morning breakfast there with the fluffiest pancakes. There is a great diner feel and it's perfect for a small town like Fallbrook. I often even order something to pick up for lunch when I have to eat at the office. Also, the prices are fantastic and the service is quick!! read more

Good food & good service. The people that work there are always friendly. We like the waitress Shelly Pattilou. read more

Excellent go to standard breakfast fare where you are treated well and the coffee flows like the smiles :)

Need to update the times online. Came here twice with family and the first time it was closed and second time the kitchen was closed but there was still an hour till closing. If you update the hours make sure you update everything so people don't get confused. read more

Happy Days Diner and truck stop counters! We enjoy breakfast at Fallbrook Cafe. It is the perfect little stop when you want some good old fashion diner food. They serve large but not to large portions here. The food is very good and the service is great to go along with it. It is a nice treat once in awhile to just relax and feel you are somewhere else in time for a few moments while eating out. We sit at the counter sometimes just to see how the girls all buzz around the place to get the food out. We also like to see all the different items they are serving that day as it passes through the service window. Fun stop and Breakfast has always been good. read more

Great food, Fast service, Friendly, Old style 50's dinner booths all in a row like you see in a movie. Short wait even on sat morning at 10am. Counter service Large servings at great prices. Filet Mignon breakfast was what I had with biscuits and gravy, 8oz steak perfectly cooked with hash browns and eggs only $12. Will highly recommend only about 6 miles west of 15 read more

The best diner food around. In a world where humans may or may not make breakfast for you in the morning: your cook was slower than most but thorough. I asked specifically for well done hash browns, as well as bacon. He was happy to oblige. The bacon usually comes to the table just as crispy as I hope. The diner food is great enough to be served today, in that it is dressed with a pile of fresh veggies or fruit; something fresh that can be eaten as soon as the food is given; the idea being, the sight of food entices you to become immediately ravenous, surrender untold sums to very expensive chefs - because you must eat THIS, EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!! But then, that's just what I see. read more

This family-owned business is by far one of my favorite places in North County. Whether it's for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, I love coming here with my family or meeting up with people because there's something for everyone. The staff is great, and the owner really cares about the Cafe. read more

I couldn't finish my coffee because they service was so amazing. All the servers as well as what I presume was the owner were very friendly and quick with their actions to accommodate. Food was tasty as well. Definitely would return read more

Came here for a lunch with my coworker. It was a rainy day so I was craving some chili. Chili was already made and they just put it in a bowl for me when I got there along with some cheese, onions and a side of sour cream. This is one of the better chili soups I've had in a while and it hit the spot. Nice little place in Fallbrook. I've heard from many coworkers that live nearby that this place is good. Their menus look a little outdated and are kind of falling apart. I would suggest making new (clean) ones and have a paper menu for people to take home. It would help out people who want to place orders for pickup or takeout. I'll definitely be coming back to try more items on their menu read more

A pretty good olden-tymey diner. I guess my Uncle would call this place a "local choke-n-puke". Met with a friend here for breakfast, I found the portions generous for the cost, coffee yummy and plentiful. Wifey had cinnamon pancakes which she happily commented were not overly sweet, just right. I had poached eggs and hash browns, all was pretty good. All told, it was around $10/person with coffee. ADVICE: BRING A LAYER, it's dang cold in there. read more

LOVE THIS PLACE! FOOD IS AMAZING! THIS PLACE IS A HIDDEN GEM. if you're looking for comfort food, a good sandwich, a wide variety of sides, please visit this place. They're by far one of the best restaurants i've been to since i got here. i wish i could explain in words how sweet our server was as well. read more

The pot pie and chicken fried steak were both excellent. The place is nothing to look at. The place is in the middle of nowhere. I would never have stopped here if the yelp reviews had not been so good. read more

This is a go to breakfast spot. I love to meet friends here and the food is very good. Their patio is dog friendly and this is an easy stop off of mission rd. read more

I grew up in Fallbrook and decided to come back after a few years to revisit this place I thought was "great" as a kid. Service is horrible but of course the locals don't agree because it's literally the only breakfast place in town. Took 45 minutes to get our food after waiting 20 to be sat. Don't bother coming here. read more

I love this place! I have been coming here for a long time and everything on the menu is great. The staff is always so kind too. For breakfast, I love the Belgium waffle , but they also offer great lunch and dinner foods too. read more

Breakfast all day 5 bucks if before 11 am Freaking best country fried chicken or country fried steak and egss i've had in a long time. This place was great. the inside area looks like a small diner. tip: When you come inside they expect you to sign your name in on the paper. if you don't mind sitting outside you will probably get seated faster. The Bad. Their steak was kinda dry and tasteless. Don't get that. Get their country fried chicken. Yumn... read more

Their food is greater than Denny's! Ask for honey and they will get it for you for you to put in their coffee. They are fast and courteous. Great service! They do take-outs! All you can eat fish 'n chips on Fridays! read more

We usually only ever come here when Main St. Cafe is overly busy. The food at Fallbrook Cafe is ok at best. It's just breakfast. When we've gone before, we usually always say we'll never go back but with limited breakfast options we go again. This time was the last time. We were told it would be a 10 minute wait that turned into 30 minutes waiting for a table. The problem with this is there were tables open, yet no one was putting people at tables. They don't monitor the waitlist properly so someone ended up scribbling their name at the very very bottom of the sheet jumping in front of everyone. Had they looked at the next page, they would have seen these people came AFTER those already waiting. On top of that, we ended up waiting at our table to order for about another 15-20min after our waitress had said she would be right back to take our order. This was way after she said she was going to take an order for a table of 7. We were a table of 2 and a child who didn't even order food. One would think you'd put that shorter order in first. At least this is how other wait staff at other places have always done it. The food came out quickly after ordering luckily. I did hear our waitress try to say they were short on cook staff so the wait was long. The problem is not your kitchen, it is the people outside of it. On top that, she tried to charge us $5 for water that apparently she thought was juice. Unfortunately, we gave a bad tip which is never something we do. What they got, was what they gave. We won't be coming back again. I'm not a fan of empty apologies and excuses. If you are, then sure try them out but the food won't even be that great. read more

I love this place. The people are lovely, and the food is great. Unfortunately, Fox News is almost always playing on the TVs. I won't go there anymore because of this. Sorry, guys. I love your restaurant, I love you, but I can't support this garbage propaganda that you play on the TVs. I know Fallbrook is conservative, but at this point it's a matter of conscience. As soon as you stop playing Fox News, our family will return. read more
