What User doesn't like about Fifties Cafe:
The 50's Cafe is a nice out of the way mom & pop cafe with a 50's nostalgic feel. Prices were good, food was hit and miss but the atmosphere was great. 50's music playing in the back round brought back childhood memories with my family. The little juke box at our table actually worked. Service was good as well. Lots of 50's memorabilia around the cafe. View all feedback. What User likes about Fifties Cafe:
My wife and I have frequented the "50's cafe" and have nothing but positive comments regarding the overall cafe. We have had their breakfasts, burgers, poutine and various meal specials. I was surprised to find out the wall mounted juke boxes worked and for a quarter you can choose and play your favourite 50's song.If any of you are in the area, I strongly suggest you visit this little Cafe if only for a coffee.I str...

Had breakfast here and it was delicious. Staff was very nice and it's great little spot. Two eggs, bacon, home fries and toast for $6. I can't wait to go back

Food lands in your stomach with a clunk. Price ok, good service and cute inside but food was very poor.

The 50's Cafe offers a nostalgic atmosphere with working jukeboxes and 50's memorabilia. While some found the food hit and miss, the overall dining experience was enjoyable. The restaurant exudes a genuine 1950's diner feel, with friendly staff and good service. Menu favorites include burgers and onion rings. Despite some complaints about seating arrangements and accessibility, the charming decor and excellent service make it a cozy spot for breakfast or a casual meal. Overall, the 50's Cafe is a solid choice for a nostalgic dining experience with good food, friendly service, and reasonable prices.
