Our Story

After over 50 years of combined experience in the restaurant industry, Mike and Nyla wanted to create an atmosphere they felt was missing —a place where you can get a homemade meal quickly. Here at Food A Fare, we've created a community built around comfort food at its finest. The comfy couch and quirky wall art invite you into the warm welcome of smiles and delicious smells. You'll always find real food made daily with real ingredients on our menu. And to top it off, most meals are ready in less than five minutes.

Open  Tuesday - Friday
11 a.m. - 6:30 p.m. or sold out
