The restaurant itself is cute and the staff is ok but the food was NOT good. Very low quality and no creativity in their dishes, very basic diner food. read more

A really delicious lunch. Got lucky that fried chicken is the special on Wednesday. Busy at lunchtime. Clean. Welcoming staff. They have mostly booths. Fair prices. The portions filled me up. Excellent waitress. Coffee is good. Daily specials. Street parking. This place does it right. read more

I chose Faye's because of Yelp reviews. It was a local favorite. I ordered the tenderloin sandwich and fries. The tenderloin was fantastic, though the restaurant was out of lettuce. I followed it up with a piece of pie. Options were limited and the pie was too sweet. Trust me, I have a sweet tooth, but man. I could feel the sugar rush. It was still a great experience. We met up with distant relatives found on 23andMe. I would recommend adding wifi. It would likely bring then more business at lunchtime. read more

Faye's Northside Restaurant - Faye's Northside Cafe - American Near Me - Tipton, Indiana

This was a nice meal in a small town setting with lots of hospitality. I pulled up across the street and parked (free). Upon entering the restaurant, there is a wall divider on the left that extends about half way back. There is plenty of seating at tables in the dining room and some bar stools at the rear by the counter where you pay after your meal. I wasn't sure if I was to seat myself, but one of the several staff members saw me and directed me to pick a spot. There are menus on each table and the daily specials are listed on a chalkboard in the middle of the dining area. My waitress was friendly and pointed out the specials to make sure I saw them. I decided to go with the fried chicken and ordered cheese potatoes and green beans as sides. I ordered water and forgot to check what other beverages they had. I was brought my ice water promptly (no lemon slices, but they have lemon juice available.) It was no more than three minutes after ordering when my food arrived! Wow! I used to wait in drive thru lines longer than that! My meal arrived with all the ingredients on a single plate though the beans were in a separate dish nestled between the other items. Paper napkins and silverware were provided then too. The beans were really good. Chopped segments fixed cooked (not al dente) with bits of onion and bacon were really tasty. The cheese potatoes were halved and sliced and cooked in a cheese sauce that was good and simple in flavor, i.e. comfort food. The potatoes were piping hot so be careful biting in. The chicken was thoroughly cooked and nearly fell off the bone. I got two thighs and a drumstick for my portion. The chicken was moist and tender. However, the skin which was lightly breaded, needed some seasoning (I added some salt) and had become just a bit soggy. When I bit into the chicken (hand held for me), the skin fell off which left the meat with no seasoning. It was okay, but I would have preferred the skin to be crisper and a bit more tasty. Checking out was easy since the waitress had dropped off my order ticket right after I received my food. I simply paid at the counter at the back of the restaurant. Note that if you want to leave a tip on your credit card, you have to tell them that before they ring it up and you swipe your card. (Look for the small note by the card machine to remind you.) If you like dining with the local folks at a place that is known for its traditional meal options, stop by Faye's just a few blocks north of the courthouse. Review #3600 read more

Very good, homemade food! They change out menu options often and it's always amazing service :) everyone is kind! I love the stool, booth, or table seating options and the atmosphere is very homey. They always have fresh pie & coffee! Their hours are a little weird but it's because they cater to the farmers in the area who want an early breakfast so it's understandable. Totally reasonable pricing too read more

The breakfast here is amazing! The history and small town diner feel is second to none. The service is prompt and I have never waited more than 5 minutes to get my food. I have never been able to finish all of my meal due to how large the portions are. If you love breakfast, you'll absolutely LOVE Faye's! read more

Old School dinner! Great food and very friendly service! Nice treat to get away from places like Bob Evens etc. Better quality & price for a great Breakfast! Keep up the great work! Will be back! read more

Home cooking from a simple but yummy breakfast plate to all the pie selections from day to day (butterscotch is a fave). A place to come as you are and not fuss about what you're wearing although you're bound to see someone you know! You can choose carry out or call ahead and order. They also do catering orders! Street parking nearby and right near downtown Tipton where you'll find fun and unique shopping. Sweet and quaint little spot! read more

My favorite place to eat breakfast in Tipton. Great home cooked meals, nice place to stop and chat with locals

This is a great restaurant with homecooked food that is amazing. This place is loved by the locals. Biscuits and gravy is a must to order, the gravy is so smooth and flavorful. Get there early so they don't run out! Don't expect fancy, but it is definitely a homey place. This is the best restaurant in Tipton!! read more

Great food! Will be back! Very friendly and love the staff! I happen to go there one time a long time ago by mistake and thought it was something else and decided to stay! Now I go every week! read more

If you are looking for all of the things "that mom used to make", then this is the place with all of the things! Meatloaf with ketchup baked on top, banana cream pie and coconut cream pie WITH meringue (as only each should be)! The lady running the place (which I assume is a descendant of Beluah Faye) knows almost to the exact detail of what her regulars are going to order! This is thee most like home as one can get. This is my first trip (35 minutes from my house) and it's a good thing it's not too close! It's just like family, close enough to visit but not just around the corner! Move over Cracker Barrel Faye's has your number but serves better! Gas money well spent, it may be a weekly visit read more

If you are in Tipton Faye's is a must, especially on Fish Friday. There daily specials are all good. Wednesday is Spaghetti Thursday Beef n Noodles read more

Nice little diner. Had the chicken and noodles with apple crisp pie a la mode for desert. Good eats

Haven't been there in a while, breakfast has only been the meals that I have eaten there. I have never had a bad breakfast at Fay's. A great small town restaurant, thumbs up! read more
