Their food is amazing :) People are so nice . Would recommend anyone to try it. I say it’s like old fashion fry places ! Yummy
Karen, don't forget to try Maker's Mark Whisky! Some say it's orgasmically delicious! However, be sure to savor it as though its expensive chocolate. In fact, it has strong caramel notes, which happens to be my reason for getting it in the first place. Anywho, let me know how you make out with it?
The food is usually great but the fries were tough, the gravy was mid at best and tge wings were disgusting. I can eat anything if I want but it was no joy in the meal I had. It really was a waste of money this time. Usually they are way better. The turkey flip was great I enjoyed it more than the wings chips deluxe. Next time I'm sticking to the fish because their wings are weird.
Found a Red pushpin that was baked into a turkey roll. Never ever had an issue with Fabulous Foods before now. Will be more cautious in the future.
Simply the best turkey around. They've got turkey lot pies, hot turkey sandwiches that come with a pile of fries, dressing, gravy, and peas! Super reasonably priced (about $10 a for the plate pictured) - and their homemade flakies are a must-have.
Stopped in for supper and picked up a Turkey pie, and a giant flakie. Easy to get distracted by all the pastries and pies on display. Staff are always on hand, very friendly!
Absolutely fabulous homemade "comfort food" served up with a warm smile by some sweet and friendly ladies...if you've never been to Fabulous Foods, do yourself a favour and check them out! :) I'm trying my best to sample every delicious offering...I love their Turkey Pie and Cold Turkey Sandwich...for dessert maybe a fresh Strawberry Flakie or a creamy Vanilla Square...yummy! Hmmm...can you guess where I'm going for lunch? :)
The name says it all! Fabulous Foods! Not posh - just perfect home-style meals served with warm Newfoundland Hospitality! Fish & Chips, Turkey Pot Pies! Turkey Roll (flip /turnover)! And oven-fresh NL-style baked goods daily! It's Absolutely FABULOUS (in a homespun way)!
They are very friendly to people and the food is affordable and very yummy love the gravy
Stopped in twice for fish n chips and again for pastries. Lover every bit of it!
Love going to the restaurant. They need something over there door to stop the rain. Very unsafe
Delicious
Always great!
Love this place! Great turkey pies, club house, soup, treats, and more.
Fabulous Foods serves the best turkey pies in the city!
Love the assortment of baked goods and fair prices. Also cannot beat their chips with gravy and a turkey pie
Karen and her staff are so accommodating when you walk through the door. They always welcome you with a smile. Food is always fresh and delicious
Ordered a hot turkey deluxe. Its supposed to come with fries dressing and gravy. I asked for the gravy on the side. What I got was a plate full of fries covered in gravy with no dressing and a piece of bread underneath it all. No dressing barely any turkey no flavor.
Been coming here for most of my life. Food quality hasnt changed. You have to try the cream puffs!!! Excellent. They dont chimp on size.
Very friendly place to go for mom and pops style food, unfortunately the food can be kind of hit or miss if you stray from the turkey pie path. That said the turkey pies are delicious. Theyve also managed to keep prices pretty low for their portion sizes and competition. VERY busy around mealtimes
A St. Johns classic for old school take out grub!! Those turkey flips with a side of gravy for dipping are the bomb, and the cream puffs are a tower of deliciousness. You wont go hungry here, buddy. Kid-friendliness: There is no eat-in option, but they have menu items suitable for kids.
It was an accidental visit to fabulous Foods. Only to discover the house next door was my home between 1931 and 1942. Brought a tear to my eye. The street is named Merry Meeting Road. And it lived up to its name in spite of the fact it was the firsr 10 yrs of theGreat Depression I REMEMBER WELL MY FRIENDS IE: Paddy Dempsey Winston Hunt, John Stuckless, Jack Fifield, My girlfriend who was also 12 years old at the time. JEAN MacBay. Oh! What memorable times!!!
Immediate service, friendly staff, great food - well worth the visit for takeout.
Amazingly tasty turkey and dressing flips and gravy! Flakies are really good! Stay away if you are concerned about your weight!
Delicious homemade food and desserts. Amazing friendly service.
This place has great food at very affordable prices....real turkey and lots of it! You wont be disappointed! Food
OMG !! I only got introduced to this amazing place a little while ago, but the food is to die for, and the home made flakies are absolutely amazing! Great prices! Amazing service! Wonderful home cooked meal! I really cant say enough great things about this restaurant.
The first place I go when i visit from Edmonton
Good feed. Classic spot. Dont expect a fancy restaurant
Never disappoints! Turkey dinner was awesome!
Homemade food; turkey pizza, potato salad and homemade flakies are the best
20 year customer for famous Turkey Pie.....not anymore. On the last 2 occasions that Ive been in, I have to say its been a let down. Last time was Friday Feb 25th, 12:15 was the last time, Your famous Turkey Pie was super dry and totally tasteless. Very disappointing. Someone at Fabulous Foods has taken their hands off the wheel. Well, youd better get a grip or another great St. Johns tradition will be history.
Long wait
Cant go wrong with a turkey pie and a few turkey flips! Dont forget gravy for dunking! Sweet treats are yummy also
Food is always awesome here and the staff are the best!
In from to gotta have turkey pie !
Known for turkey pies....and these little bits of heaven!
First time trying, LOVED it! Good prices, big portions and very tasty. Will be a steady customer from here on out.
Parking: Not so great!!!
I only go for the cream pies!
Delicious Clubhouse and fries!
Well they used to have good turkey pies, not anymore. They need to put turkey in their turkey pies thats why its called a turkey pie. Too bad, I went to this place for 40 years will not purchase again. The pie was predominately potatoe a marked difference from the past...I was going to return it but too much trouble I just wont buy there again. Service was always good.
The fish & chips was excellent! Very good tartare sauce to go with it.
A hidden gem. Order the club and fries, you wont be disappointed.
This shop is legendary here in st johns and for good reason .....Awesome food and deserts and dinners ....like nothing else in newfoundland
Rude employees
Bern going there for years and never disappoints
Delicious baked goods
Always the best
My absolute favorite place in town for some poutine and dont forget to try their flakies they are to die for
Had a large poutine and turkey pie. Deadly as always!
Great food ,excellent service
Staff are lovely food not so much. Figured get what I would order years ago. BAD IDEA, Wings were terrible, fries were homemade with rotten potatoes, and way undercooked and dressing are slices at the bottom of the meal. Gravy wasnt too bad. As for the Apricot squares, the pasty was more of meat pie style
Disaster..never returning. I am a customer of fabulous foods off and on for over 15 years now.last summer there food could not be touched..u walk in a order and ur food was freshly made right than and there but that us no longer the case. Last year got xlub sandwichs and fries serveral times for picnics at bannerman park where several ppl aproached us on numerous days asking where we got it and how good it smelled and i proudly said fabulous foods . But that will never happen again.over the past few months the quality has slipped but ive let it slide time and again because of past greatness and because it usualy was still good,the amount and quality of the turky now on the club sandwichs has degraded drasticly over the past year while price has increased the toasted club sandwich is no longer made fresh but at minimum its a day old,toast is soggy from being toasted a day ago but also from the lettuce abd tomato been on it the past cpl days.the tomato it self looks like a slice i took off a wendys hamburger and tossed in my garbage 3 days ago or hd been left on the counter..lettuce same thing dehydrated and browning.past 4 times ina row i added cheese and paid for cheese one my 2 sandwichs but never recieved them..i guess they would have to make ot fresh which is to much to ask fabulis foods in its current state to make u fresh food aparently..todays meals fries were the only redeeming quality which is sad because they are a shell of the previous fries i got there just months ago. Got my gravey today but lst 3 times previously they forgot the gravey.also i have come to find out the so called specials and combos are false advertising they are literaly the same price if u got the items seperatly so theres so special price or combo pricing what so ever. Also the bacon seems kinda turnt..u cant really feed ppl 3 day old bacon and expect it to be fine..im so done with this place which is kindof sad causei loved this place(as u can tel by my large text review i feel strongly about this) i felt they were a local gem..a somewhat hidden gem that didnt get enough shine,but oh well life goes on i wont be returning ..i will literaly drive to another city to get a sandwhich before i ever give them another chance this is the stray that broke the camels back
Food is always great!
Food hasnt changed in the 55 years Ive been going there. Its Great!!! And price is great.

SUPER sweet staff and best takeout in the city
Well priced, good quality. Fries were exceptional. Chicken sandwich was fresh and tasty, though a little small.
It was nearly 20 years since I had tasted the delicious turkey pie that has made this spot famous and fabulous. I was not disappointed. No words can explain how damn good this food tasted. I couldnt leave without 2 cream puffs and a flaky lol Thankfully my kiddo loved the food also and helped me eat the enormous portions! And the staff were fabulous to boot also. All around 10s 10s 10s. This place will be around for another 40 years!! If you havent had tried their turkey pies you are missing out - its an 8$ pie people! The food divine prices amazing - head here!!!
One of the top places to eat in town and very good prices for the quality.
It s probably the best bag for your buck in center city St. John s. Very good food and very friendly service. They also have lots of interesting and non traditional desserts. You have to try them out.
Best turkey pie ever.
Always a delicious meal at good prices. Desserts are sinful. Reccomend the hot turkey sandwich or turkey pie.
Great food. Best cold plate in the city. Turkey pie has to be the best, if you havent tried it check it out.
Excellent food, excellent service

I had not had a cheeseburger in years so I ordered a cheeseburger platter ..It was okay however I was disappointed that it was a very thin patty and not a homemade burger...probably explains why the platter was fairly cheap in price...
Awesome food good price and friendly staff
Great food. Cheap prices.
Love their food
Love the turkey dinner and fried chicken they also have the best homemade flakies for dessert
THE best cold plate in St. Johns! Wish they were open on Sundays though :-(
Turkey rolls with gravy and turkey pies same as I remember from when I went to school across the street, I wonder if they would freeze and send me some to Woodstock? Place use to be called chalkers when I was a kid, was surprised by all the schools that have closed in the area.
Fast, friendly service. This takeout is named appropriately..food is absolutely fabulous.

Great food and friendly faces!!
My partner and I saw the insane amount of positive reviews for this place all over the internet, so we decided to try it out. We are extremely confused as to how this place has such glowing reviews as we found the food absolutely revolting. We ordered a turkey sandwich with fries, and chicken nuggets and fries, and it was literally inedible. I LOVE anything turkey, but this turkey was terrible (and dont get me started on their disgusting, watered-down gravy) and neither my partner nor I could eat more than 3 fries, as they tasted extremely strongly of grease. I consider myself to be quite the pig when it comes to food (I will eat almost anything) but I could not stomach to eat this food. Were wondering if either we came on an off day, or everyone in St Johns is a lunatic and thinks this is good food.
best wings and chips in town. only things is gravy could use some work tastes good but is too watery and you need alot of it to taste it. other then that I love fabulous foods! the chicken is so tasty with lots on it and the prices are really reasonable.
Great food. Great prices. Nice staff
Always the best fries reminds me of back home
Fast friendly service with a homegrown flavor.
Consistency
Great food and the fastest take out service around!
Great food for a great price! Staff are very friendly and welcoming
If u want to full Ur tumi but dont have that cast go there... Awesome food in less price..
The only thing is that sizes vary depending whos in the kitchen. But its always delicious!
Amazing home style food at an unbeatable price. The turkey pies are to die for!
