I was expecting to be a real Fifty diner 😂. The location and atmosphere is really good. But they really need to work on their food especially egg Benedict. I ordered egg Benedict with cheese, muffins were completely cold and both cheeses as well. They should warm the muffins and melt the cheese to taste better. Their pancakes were okay but I think they should serve real maple syrup instead of those packets especially in the real north of Ontario.

I was impressed by how delicious the food is with large portions - good value for $. I had the smoked meat omelette and recommend it. I was in a rush but service was very quick! The staff were friendly and sweet. I chatted with the owner - I like to support family-owned businesses. Great experience!

We had the Smoked Meat & Swiss Eggs Benedict and the Breakfast Poutine Both were absolutely amazing! We had our food within 5 minutes of ordering it!! I wish this place was in our hometown, it is so so good! The orange juice was also served in a quite large cup which is nice as at many other breakfast places the juice portions are very small

We decided to try this diner out for a weekend breakfast spot and can say it was pretty decent. Love the environment really has the 50's feel with all style and pictures. Our waiter was friendly, funny, quick and easy to communicate with. Only places it lost some points was 1. I asked for my Hash browns to be well done and I feel it missed the mark there. 2. My partner felt the coffee was a bit watered down. 3. My partners burger was messy to eat as a hands on meal but it was amazing that the burger patty was so much bigger then the bun - really get value from that, however does require you to eat with a knife and fork I will say for a busy place the staff attitude was very upbeat and on point. Doesn't seem like they get tense and stressed under pressure. I also love the fruit plate I got with my order

Stopped in for the 3rd time. 1st time I had fish and chips. It came with soup 2 good sized pieces of fish(Haddock) and nicely battered, a large quantity of fries, cooked just right and a drink. Never let there hungry and a surprising cost. Next 2 times for breakfast. I ordered the amazing eggs Benedict with hollandaise sauce. Came with 3 eggs and peameal bacon on english muffins, a sizable amount of homefries and homemade fresh fruit salad. What an amazing portion for the cost, and the staff are always very welcoming. Parking: Large shared parking

You get a lot of food for not a lot of money. And its good. One of the only places where its not 100+ dollars for two people and I still need to be rolled out after eating. Most of all, the staff are incredibly friendly and they are able to create such an amazing atmosphere. When you think of the classic small town diner, say from a Stephen King novel or something (not talking the horror aspects here ahaha), where you feel cozy and at home, this is a place like that, that actually still exists in reality. Certainly a rare treasure. Major props to the owner for accomplishing this.

Food is good, its a busy spot, be warned if you go by yourself they will put you on the spot and try and get you to merge tables with other strangers who are alone. Even saw them as a table of 2 to let a lady they didnt know join them. It was a bit strange especially if you just want to have a quick bite and not socialize or make anyone feel bad or be put on the spot infront of a full restaurant

None stop, wait out the door and we got in within 10 minutes and yes food took a bit but it came perfect! Amazing home fries and meal was fantastic. Refills were giving multiple times and you can tell the owner recognized and talked to people who ve been there before. I will absolutely be back here to have them again.

My Dad and I stopped in here for a quick breakfast on our way through North Bay. Just wanted somewhere that served all day breakfast. This place was great! I got the mushroom and Swiss omelette and Dad got bacon and poached eggs. The food was done wonderfully and the poached eggs were perfect. What made the experience even better was that all the staff kept coming around consistently making sure that everything was ok and refilling drinks and coffee. They really wanted our experience to be good and it was. The atmosphere isnt anything to write home about but it wasnt dirty or unclean. Dont expect an amazing ambiance. This is a little hole in the wall diner that serves good food and in my opinion, they are worth it. Thanks again

Fiftys was my grandfathers favorite restaurant in the Bay, conveniently close to home and wheelchair accessible which he really appreciated. He always had the same meal, liver and onions and raved about it every time. Grandma usually had the same too, chicken Cesar wrap which she ate half and saved the other half for next days lunch. The last meal I shared with them as a family in 2020 was here at Fiftys, about 7 months before my grandfather passed away. I no longer live in the Bay but when I visit, Ill be sure to stop by. The owners are incredibly polite and considerate. Really appreciate the friendly environment theyve created and the great food served every time. God Bless Wheelchair accessibility: Owners always made room for my grandfather to come in with his wheelchair.

The new owners are wonderful people very attentive to their customers. I was reading some other reviews and I must say the lady that commented on the food was totally wrong about the food and the price of her chocolate milk. The food has lots of flavor and the service is impeccable. Sonal and her staff are always friendly and polite I will always go to there restaurant as when I want something different sonal is willing to do it. If something is wrong with your food just bring to their attention and they will fix it the best breakfast in North Bay. Thank you Sonal and your staff I always look forward to having a meal there.

Step back in time and immerse yourself in the charm of the 1950s at Fiftys Diner, a delightful gem nestled in North Bay, Ontario. As an upcoming blogger, I couldnt resist the opportunity to experience this retro diner firsthand and share my thoughts with you. Upon entering Fiftys Diner, I was immediately transported to a bygone era with its vibrant decor, jukebox tunes, and classic diner booths. The walls adorned with vintage memorabilia, neon signs, and black-and-white checkered floors perfectly captured the essence of the 1950s, evoking a sense of nostalgia and warmth. Now, lets talk about the star of the show: the food! Fiftys Diner offers a diverse menu filled with all the timeless favorites youd expect from a classic diner. From hearty burgers and crispy fries to indulgent milkshakes and creamy sundaes, theres something to satisfy every craving. I had the pleasure of trying their signature Fiftys Classic Burger, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. Juicy beef patty, fresh lettuce, ripe tomatoes, crispy bacon, and melted cheese sandwiched between toasted buns a true culinary delight that left me craving for more. The service at Fiftys Diner was as delightful as the ambiance and food. The staff greeted me with warm smiles and friendly banter, creating a welcoming atmosphere that made me feel right at home. Despite the bustling crowd, my order was taken promptly, and my meal arrived in a timely manner. Overall, my experience at Fiftys Diner was nothing short of fantastic. From the retro ambiance to the delicious food and impeccable service, every aspect exceeded my expectations. Whether youre a local looking for a taste of nostalgia or a traveler passing through North Bay, a visit to Fiftys Diner is a must-do experience that will leave you smiling from ear to ear. So, what are you waiting for? Grab your saddle shoes and hop in your vintage car Fiftys Diner awaits to take you on a delicious journey back in time.

I had breakfast here on a Sunday morning. Decided to give it a try after reading the reviews. Hands down best breakfast in North Bay. There is something for everyone on the menu. It looked so good I forgot to take a picture before eating! It was very busy when we went, the staff were good at what they do and I feel overall the wait was not bad. You seat yourself and when you are finished your meal you go to the cash to pay they do not bring the bill to your table - fyi so you don t wait for it. The manager or owner came around to all the tables to ask if everyone was enjoying their food I though it was such a personal touch. I would highly recommend and will be back.

Wife and I had lunch in there. Very nice small cozy restaurant. The service was very good but a little slow, which is not the servers fault as it got busy just after we came in. We both had the fish and chips which wee very good with ample portions. Prices, IMO, where a little high. 2 full fish and chips, 1 pop and 1 coffee and tip $60. I guess thats why we dont eat out very much. My only complaint was the menu that you look at itself. The print was so small it was ridiculous. Its almost as if they tried to save a few dollars on menus to get it all to fit one one page. Would I eat there again ....yes but not for a while. Have to get a second job first.

Brought the family here for breakfast . Great decision! Large portions, great food, and excellent service - keep up the great work Mitch and crew! Kid-friendliness: Mitch our waiter made small talk engaging or children. Laughs were had.

Had an excellent lunch at Fifty s Diner yesterday. Our server was very friendly and the food was very good, with very good portion size at a reasonable price- including a second smoked meat sandwich for only 25 cents extra. What a deal!!! My only suggested change for Fifty s is to update their menu which is currently printed on an 8 1/2 by 14 sheet of paper laminated due to Covid. The font size is so small that it is barely legible. This is disrespectful to patrons with less than very good eye site. As discussed with owner, please replace your menus!

I really enjoy their burgers/fries/gravy and the customer service is unmatched.

Compliments to the cooks in the back for making an excellent meal. Like Arnold said: Ill be baaak!

I have frequented this restaurant about 8 times over the years. Recently went to breakfast. Two eggs, taters and bacon coffee. Their prices (menu on lone not up to date,) are higher than many breakfast joints. Service is good. Potatoes dry from being cooked and held for too long or cooked the day before. Mine were cold. Quality of lunches has suffered as well. I get that inflation causes price increases, but Ivans and Burger world better. Colonal Hoagies is opening back up soon.

This weekend was my first time at Fiftys Diner and they did not disappoint. The food, portion size, price and service were all excellent. Im lactose-intolerant and asked for Coffee Mate as a creamer substitute. They did not have any so a staff member went out to get some at a nearby grocery store and brought it to me 5 minutes later. Talk about great service!

For a good breakfast at a local greasy spoon this is one to keep in mind. Havent had lunch or dinner but I have a feeling those would be good too. Very pleasant staff and quick service. Food was hot which is very important to me, and Im sure to many others. Atmosphere is quaint and talkative. What kept me from wanting to give 5 stars is the over easy eggs were overcooked, however the breakfast sausage was cooked oh so perfectly dark brown and crisp skin all around. So back to 5 stars.

We were recommended Fiftys Diner by some locals and we are very happy we came for a visit. We really enjoyed a lunch from here. I had a great little club sandwich and my husband ordered a burger. They were both so yummy. My club was perfect. The ham was delicious, the toppings were fresh. My husband got a cheese burger. The meat was so good. Great toppings and sauce. The fries tasted great and were fresh and crispy. If we ever come back to North Bay for a visit, we will definitely be eating here.

If this place counted on the staff, they would be rated 5 stars. The staff were super friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, the food didnt come close! The ham (in the hungry man breakfast) was so thin that it couldnt help but be over cooked and leathery, and the unseasoned homefries were cold. The second item was the Philly steak sandwich was good, but the fries ( that were supposed to be extra crispy) were tough and cold. We didnt feel that the meal was worth the price.
