Fair Lawn Athletic Club

We recently held a repast gathering at FLAC. The staff and space were extremely welcoming and accommodating. Everything was prepared and ready for us upon arrival, which helped to make a difficult time more comforting. The food was exceptional, from the penne to the chicken to the sausage and peppers, and even the antipasto. We had an open bar for our guests, and the service was fantastic, as the bar was well stocked. We would highly recommend the FLAC to anyone in need of a private event.

I've been to Fair Lawn Athletic Club (FLAC) many times for one reason and one reason only: Friday night karaoke. The vibes are immaculate, the talent is off the charts, and Michelle is an expert at her craft. I've never seen a karaoke host run more organized or get through a lineup so easily (there's never a break between singers, unlike most other karaoke hosts I've seen). Drinks are also good and fairly priced. The issue is that FLAC is way too cramped, an issue that already existed, but which was made ten times worse by a recent catastrophic renovation decision that removed the karaoke/live music stage and gave that space to a pool table that apparently needs five feet of room on all sides. There's normally 40+ people there for karaoke and maybe 5-10 for pool. Not sure what the solution is at this point; perhaps open a portion of the large event space in the back for karaoke?

We ,a senior club booked our 40 plus anniversary party there. We were given a per person price and menu with sodas etc. When we arrived to tables covered with plastic cloths and a pitcher of water and tiny plastic cups. Th caterer came and put up the food. We had paper plates and packets of plastic ware with the napkin inside...Tiny pieces of bread, skimpy salad. the meatball and chicken and pasta were okay. The price we were charged we could have gone to several local restaurants and had our affair. We had been to the Athletic Club before with great experiences ,however this tie was very very disappointing. They have a kitchen and dishes and silverware that we had previously. It was a disgrace to be served with paper and plastic. When the bill came the per person price was slightly reduced but then $200 dollars were added that we were not aware of. I as organizer must apologize to our members for this affair. We look forward to our affairs and this was a great disappoitment.

Remember coming here as a young man growing up in Fair Lawn. Always a friendly bunch and a great atmosphere to have a cocktail in.

Food was great. Atmosphere was pretty good a lot of locals. I went on a Friday night and it was karaoke night so it was fun. I would go again.
