Usually love the place but this is solely based on fried food. The fried chicken sandwich takes like fish. Must use same oil. No good....

When in Poughkeepsie. Dine at Alex’s. I felt right at home. When I had an option where to sit. I got the veggie omelette that afternoon. The service and food truly did justice! Regardless what you get. You’ll always leave with a smile when you dine at Alex’s!

My experience today was horrible!!!!! We made a reservation for 11:00, we arrived on time and was seated by a young man. Our waitress made the experience horrible!!! She was flustered, not friendly, and rushed us during 3 exchanges that did not include taking our food order. It took almost 40 minutes to get drinks, and 2 tables of guests who arrived after us were served before our order was even taken. One hour later we asked about our food and questioned why we had not been served and were told that it had nothing to do with when you are seated it depended on the complexity of our food. Our order included 5 hotcakes with sausage or bacon and an omelette no brainer!! The male who seated us and whom I assumed was the manager by this time came over and explained that our order had been placed at 11:55. THAT was the problem!!!!!!! We were being told that at that point our food would be out in 20 minutes. We made the decision to leave and see if another establishment wanted our business! We will never go to that restaurant again and caution anyone else to not sit and be patient for an hour like we did. Try another restaurant

Always excellent service and yummy food! I have no idea how they make one of the Most Scrumptious Hamburgers ever, but they surely do!!! Be sure to save room for dessert also. Their Rice Pudding with Cinnamon and Whipped Cream is over-the-top delicious!!
Wheelchair accessibility: It's a little difficult to maneuver in the front doors with a wheelchair or walker, but if you ask someone from the staff (or even anyone just going in or out), they're always willing to add an extra hand to get both sets of doors open and provide easy passage. Once in the restaurant, there is ample room to move about with either the wheelchair or walker, and the staff quickly move chairs out of the way at one's table to fit everyone in well.

The best nostalgic place you wanna eat in Poughkeepsie NY!
Had a great experience at Alex’s, friendly and attentive service, great burgers and extra crispy fries. They also had lots of Vegan/ Vegetarian options. I got a veggie burger and loved it! Would certainly return next time I'm in Poughkeepsie!
Vegetarian options: Several sandwiches were Vegan or vegetarian, they also offered Impossible and Veggie burgers
Quiche Lorraine & New England clam chowder: an unlikely nice pairing. Wish I'd split this into two meals, because it's quite a large portion.

So gave Alex's a try. I ordered the full stack pancakes (3) with scrambled eggs and bacon along with a chocolate milk. The pancakes were ok nothing special same with the eggs and bacon. The chocolate milk barely tasted like anything. The service is great and the atmosphere is great. Little Cafe style/restaurant thats been here for a while. However, I wasn't impressed as this was my 1st time eating here but I will give them another try another day. Also parking is a pain if you didn't know
