Old Crown had everything I love in a café great atmosphere, unique decor, and friendly staff. My latte was smooth and delicious. Easily one of the better coffee spots in Fort Wayne.

Delicious BBQ sandwich!

Great people and delicious food! First time getting a sandwich and it didn't disappoint.

Fettuccine Shrimp. The only recent pic on my phone but so buttery and fresh!

This is the best restaurant in Fort Wayne. Fight me. Seriously, the hand crafted menu they serve every weekend keeps my husband and I on the edge of our seats. We love checking the Facebook page to see what divine creations they will be serving up next. The sumptuous homemade bread and butter they present before your meal is outstanding. It's light, fluffy and has just a twang of that sourdough flavor. And the butter is always airy and delightful which makes it perfect to spread onto the aforementioned bread. I'm not writing this review to tell you to "get this when you come", simply because they rarely have the same item twice. I've been coming here for 2+ years and every meal has been a winner. Bless you Old Crown, not only are you the most delicious and original restaurant in FTW, but your value and service makes this place a better town.

Cool pinball machines... bring your quarters!

Neat concept (coffee shop + bar + arcade), but falls short on execution. Menu above counter does not give drink details and the line moves incredibly slow (1 person on counter, 1 on bar). No real breakfast options, but the dinner options sounded interesting. No complaints on the iced dirty chai... I'd give another try for lunch or dinner.

Best Coffee beans in town! I love the Ethiopian beans. The service is just as good, always friendly. Try Caramel Sin!

Always a joy. The quality coffee and wide beer and drink selections have made this place a must stop when we return to FW.

Friendly, great service, delicious sandwiches & the closest to a NY/Chicago deli we've been to in…read morethe Fort. Parking isn't the best, but we've never had any issues. More of a grab and go establishment, so don't expect dine-in seating! Hot tip: grab some sandwiches and head over to Lakeside park just down the road! Makes for a great afternoon.

We were recently craving Mediterranean food and didn't know where to go. Of course Instagram would…read moreshow us this place. When you first pull into the parking lot, you don't think much of it as the building next to the convenience store is abandoned. It does not have a beautiful façade but when you walk in, it's a mom and Pop small ethnic grocery store. You order your food at the counter. The menu is kind of limited however there is quite a bit of healthy options. We went with the lamb kebab over rice and the gyro sub. unfortunately, I did not realize that the prices go up if you pay with credit card, so remember to bring cash if you want to save money. After you place your order you can wander this very small aisles to look at a variety of different drink options, etc. The food did take a little bit longer than expected to prepare. The lamb kebab over rice was delicious and had the perfect balance of spice. The sub itself unfortunately was a little disappointing. Maybe I'm not familiar with New York style subs, but I found the bread to be underwhelming and the actual ingredients inside the sub to be slightly disappointing. I think it would be better to serve the euro in a pita. I don't know about the other sandwiches that other people rave about however, maybe I will try that the next time we come in with cash, of course.
