We decided to try Ms. Fairfax for brunch and we were pleasantly surprised. The restaurant was very charming and set in a beautiful townhouse building. We all ordered from the breakfast menu. I highly recommend the pancakes with blueberries and the French toast with strawberry compote, both served with maple butter and pure maple syrup. The food was fantastic and the service was great! We will be visiting again soon. read more

My previous review is old. I love Ms Fairfax! The food is consistently delicious and service is always great!

I had such a wonderful experience at this restaurant. First off we were greeted by the most warm and welcoming server. She was taking care of the entire restaurant and didn't miss a beat. The food is fantastic. The chicken and waffles is the way I like them, with tenders not bone in (controversial, I know). But I swear, that may have been the best tender I've ever had. The flavor was insane! The brisket hash was rich and warm. Topped off with their in-house made hot sauce, it was a perfect meal. Also, the music was so on point. Just tied together a wonderful experience. read more

Still a reliable meal, but they seem to have missed a step recently. The nuts and hummus in the Mediterranean Platter had a nice smokey flavor to them, but it could all have used more salt. The burger was woefully under seasoned as well. And the Pad Thai, while reasonably tasty, was overcooked. The service and drink menu are still top notch though. read more

Kiwi lemonade was great. But the steak from steak and frites meal, I could tell it was frozen and had too much fat. I would come back to try other things but unfortunately, one server(one was nice) but the other bothered me while I was in the bathroom after I paid and left a good tip. I believe I also heard her say that I was going to mess up the bathroom after I ate which I didn't. I was also given a dirty look as I came out and found my book I left on the table on the bar.( thats not a problem, the dirty look was) Let people use the bathroom in peace please! God bless you Jesus loves you! read more

Awesome outdoor patio seating right out front, great for people-watching over dinner and drinks. Right across from the Washington's Headquarters. Food looks slightly better than it is, with the shrimp wrap sounding amazing though kind of uninteresting. Unsure I'd come back but a great spot to hang for sure. read more

We ducked into this place to get out of the cold, and it was really good. We split one of the hashes, and my wife ordered an espresso coconut martini, which she found too sweet, but I didn't. The menu is bar-grill style with Latino (Salvadoran?) flourishes. Small place with a good ambiance and kind service. Recommended. read more

Ordered breakfast takeout. The food is definitely pricey but OMG is it worth it! Today I tried the breakfast burrito which came with potatoes...delish! My partner had French toast which smelled and looked sooo good--and French toast is not my thing! We also tried the platter with eggs sunny side up, bacon, pancakes and potatoes. Everything was very good. The pancakes came with fresh strawberry. A little over $60 for this meal but I would order here again. The place was small but clean. I will add this spot to my rotation. read more

Nice cafe with a great breakfast/brunch selection. My favorite is rhe shakshouka. Could eat it every day.

Would highly recommend to anyone! Both the food and cocktails were amazing and the waitstaff was so sweet and accommodating. Will certainly be back read more

Spent the night in Newburgh and found this spot for a delicious brunch. Quality ingredients well prepared. Worth checking out and even making the trip to Newburgh for. read more

We found this quaint little restaurant on yelp while we were traveling through Newburgh. 4-1/2 Stars does not do it justice. It should be a 5 star plus!! Our server Catalina was so sweet! She recommended the Brisket Hash to my husband and I had the Fairfax breakfast both meals were DELICIOUS! The place is so cute and VERY CLEAN. Wish the weather was nicer(it was cold and rainy) then we could have sat in their beautiful patio! This is a must stop whenever you're going through Newburgh! read more

Very well-executed food in a nice, chill neighborhood joint. Small bar, seating for 20 or so and everything was much better than average.

Excellent ambience, food & drinks, especially for brunch in the outside dining area. The service was very friendly and they allowed my friends and I to enjoy the Sunday afternoon without bother. I deeply appreciated the vegan options too. Highly recommend! read more

Don't bother. Over priced and lousy service. Went in at 11:00 and waited 15 minutes for the one person waiting tables and handling the bar came to take our order. When I asked if it would be a long wait once we ordered she was rude and had an attitude since she had so many people ahead of us. We ended up leaving- I wasn't about to wait an hour to get avocado toast for 20 bucks. read more

Such an amazing little gem! Outdoors or indoors so cozy and incredible food and drinks

Stopped here for lunch with my car group on our way to Ticonderoga. The food and service were excellent. Try a burger or the Leatherman!

We stopped in for a quick lunch after getting a recommendation. It's pretty casual and we were seated with no reservations. We ordered the Fairfax burger and the leatherman. The portions are large and the food is delicious. The staff here is pretty nice. read more

Had Breakfast today at Ms. Fairfax on Liberty Street in Newburgh. It was a nice setting. Quiet on a Saturday morning. We had the Breakfast Burrito which was very good. I highly recommend it. The didn't have spinach that day, but it was still very good. We also had the French Toast which was good. It had a little too much cinnamon, but good. It is not a coffee shop so they did not have expresó products like lattes or cappuccinos. Only American coffee. Very good service, attentive and friendly. read more

I love the ambiance of this place! It looks like a spot I would find in dumbo, Brooklyn. From the outside you don't know what to expect but then you walk in and you this amazing, hip, and romantically styled restaurant! From the looks of it you would think this is the perfect date night spot! Now to the food, unfortunately, it was lack luster. It is way over priced,$15 for my French Toast and $7 for the crepe. I honestly could not believe how much the food lacked flavor. I mean $15 for French Toast is not bad when it's quality bread and there is a large amount. They literally used two slices of bread and it was nothing special. I would try this place again for dinner maybe it would be better and brunch just isn't there speciality. I really want to like this place because it's so cute but they seriously need to amp up there food game! read more

The food was amazing, the wings were the best we've had in the Hudson Valley. I had the breakfast crepe and my wife had the goat cheese omelette... both were excellent. The place is quaint and the service was good... will be putting this place on our list of places to come back to. - Jim read more

We had a group of 8 including 2 babies and every person was very pleased with their food. I don't usually leave reviews but if you are in the area this is definitely the place to stop! Beautiful area right by the Hudson too. read more

I love coming here for breakfast or like a brunch. I bring my out of town friends here often or when I am craving their breakfast sandwich! Typically pretty busy and the service is always so good. They also have a patio for outdoor seating in the summer. read more

Mrs Fairfax has been in Newburgh for a while but it was my first visit. I will definitely be back. I ordered the carrot ginger soup and I will return just for this. A soft homemade baguette with a rosemary butter was also given to us and it was delicious. I ordered a special.. a mushroom asparagus risotto with shrimp.. very flavorful and well seasoned. I recommend and I can't wait to go back to try other dishes! read more

Great service! Servers came by our table several times! As it is a bar, it was a little noisy but ambience was nice! I had the Perly bowl which was not the salad I was expecting. My wife had the house special linguine. Food was good but not great! However, the service was exceptional! read more

This is a cute little place. There is some outdoor seating in the back but we opted for the inside. The service was great and so was the food. The menu is on a small side but everyone was able to find something. I wanted something light so I ordered the apple and arugula salad. It was simple, light, and tasty. I had few bites of the baked potato and it was delicious. It was reported that the grilled cheese was perfectly executed. It had three different types of cheese. Fries were perfectly seasoned. The pulled pork tacos were not only pretty to look at but delicious. They even made the basic breakfast sandwich delicious. The presentation of all the food was right on point. Friendly service. Great place to have a meal with few friend/family. read more

Not sure how I didn't see this restaurant until this trip, but so glad I did! I did not know they had happy hour from 4-6 on certain days, but was pleasantly surprised and we got there in time to take advantage of the deal. We got the fried calamari to start. Rhe batter was well seasoned and the calamari very tender... not chewy. The dishes ordered we The Leatherman, Big Bowl.of Pasta with sausage and the Seared Salmon. Every dish was put together very well and had interesting but well matched flavors. My Salmon had a white wine lemon sauce with garlic you could see and then the salmon had a little crisp from the searing. It was amazing! The place is smaller inside and quite quaint. I would recommend making a reservation so you'll be sure to get in and try this lovely restaurant. read more

Do yourself a favor and eat here! The food was fresh, well seasoned and satisfying. The portions were ample. I got the pearly bowl with quinoa and loved every bite! The cauliflower was perfectly done, with the pickled onions setting off the avocado! These people know how to combine flavors! The beet salad was delicious- consider sharing as it's a big serving. The falafel plate was just what my kids needed. Warm pita, falafel balls to dip in hummus and tzatziki. 10 out of 10. We will come back! read more

Authentic Liege waffle sugar crystal crunch and perfectly cooked chicken tenders-best I've ever had!

tl;dr: awesome spot, reasonably-priced, delicious food, great service. wonderful neighborhood gem! we were debating btw this place and another spot, but this place ultimately won because i got drawn in by one thing and one thing only: the steak frites. the place was cozy and romantic, with a few tabled already occupied. they're currently offering an inflation buster prix-fix menu, for 1 app and 2 mains for $60 and that's what we went with. we got the following to try: -BBQ ranch chicken nachos: huge portion! juicy chicken breast strips, pico de gallo, ranch, bbq sauce, and melty cheese on crunchy tortilla chips. the pico had a nice tang to it, it wasn't your typical lime juice but i can't seem to put a finger on it. but really good! i do think it's better to cut the chicken into cubes than strips tho, for better chicken-to-nacho distribution ratio. -steak frites: comes perfectly cooked as requested (medium rare), served with bearnaise, fries, and garlic aioli. the steak was thick, meaty, and tender. the bearnaise sauce was awesome. we loved the garlic aioli and it paired well with the crispy fries. HIGHLY recommend this one! -brick chicken: seared, deboned half chicken (except the drumette, for presentation), served with baby potatoes, and mushroom/spinach in a marsala wine sauce. the chicken was nicely seared and juicy (yes, even the chicken breast), but a tad too salty for my taste. the marsala wine sauce was rich and creamy, but it does get a little heavy after a few bites. -lemon sugar crepe: light, tangy, refreshing. i also tried a cocktail but can't seem to remember the name of it for the life of me. i believe it was gin-based, with some kind of citrus. it was really tasty and well-balanced too. service was awesome, food was delicious, huge portions (we had leftovers), and just a really wonderful neighborhood gem. would love to stop in again if we're in the area! read more

Adorable, yet very busy and popular place. We arrived on a weekend for brunch with no rezzies and had to wait quite a while just for 2 seats at the bar. The service was pretty aloof. They have a list of great inventive cocktails. Hubs ordered one and thought it was delicious. He ordered French toast which was excellent and my wrap with side salad was also perfect. Fresh ingredients. It's a solid place and I'd come back to eat outside or during the week when not so busy. read more

Always love going to Ms. Fairfax but hadn't been in a while. Stopped in Saturday night for dinner and happy to report they've still got it! Service is attentive. Wine list is nice, cocktails are well made. We started with the Server's recommended Roasted Beet w/ Goat Cheese Crostini. SO delicious and quite a hefty plate with 5 crositini! perfect to share. For entrees we got the Seafood Paella and the Seafood Stew from the night's special menu. Both were super delicious. The shrimp were huge & succulent. Scallops cooked perfectly. Really nice entrees and priced pretty well too. Bravo Fairfax! Keep it up! read more
