GREAT ALL AMERICAN DINER RUN Fetch 48 Main Street, Warwick, New York 10990 845-987-8200 www.facebook.com/FetchWarwick/ To say that this month’s stop on the Great All American Diner Run has gone to the dogs would not be an understatement – simply the truth. And, it being the Dog Days of Summer, we thought it the perfect stop. But it was not always this way. Fetch had its start on the upper east side of Manhattan at 92nd Street and 3rd Avenue. Somewhere through the years, local eastside dog owners adopted the restaurant and soon the canine theme became its own. In 2011 rising costs of renting space in Manhattan had the owner and Executive Chef, Adam Powers looking for greener pastures and a dog-friendly town. They found that in the Orange County towns of Warwick and Goshen. The Goshen restaurant is no more, but the Warwick location is barking! We made a stop at Fetch back during the middle of that horrid month we will call February. It was kinda snowy and not all that rider-friendly. But that meant nothing as we had several friends and Backroads alumni get together for a Sunday Brunch amongst the puppy pictures, paintings, and doggy paraphernalia. As Mark Byers has written it is our extended family, and all the friends that are the real fuel that powers this magazine, and a small mid-winter gathering re-affirmed that. After all the hugs for some, elbow taps and fist bumps for others, it was time to study their tidy, but scrumptious menu. The Brunch Menu had some serious egg dishes – Goat Cheese, Tomato and

Basil Omelet, Huevos Rancheros, Smoked Salmon Scramble or Benedict and the Fetch Special Scramble Eggs: Ground beef, Onions, Chopped Spinach and Parmesan Cheese.
Since it was early afternoon, we stuck with the Lunch Menu which starts with their burgers and sandwiches. The Fetch Burger can be gotten in beef, turkey, or veggie that is topped with avocado. I had a Turkey Club that was very good (It is amazing how many restaurants screw up a simple Club Sandwich). The BLT Extreme was just that; built generously and just right atop MOAB
