Potato Shack Cafe

Whelp, it has been a few years since I visited this place. Today was great, Shack was quiet. The staff were full of enthusiasm and had great menu recommendations. The potato patties were an awesome generous portion worthy of sharing. The manhole sized pancakes were full of fruit blueberries and bananas large enough for 3 people to share. The 2 eggs, potatoes, toast, and 4 slices of bacon was large enough for leftovers. Coach is a great conversationalist.

We were doing a local kids' running race and wanted to try something new in town. We love potatoes and really enjoy The Potato Shack's small-town feel. It was Saturday around 11 a.m., so as expected, the parking in the area was terrible. The eatery was busy, with a pretty good amount of tables outside, booths inside, and a short wait, nothing too bad. The service was a bit slow even after the crowd left, but the food was excellent. Eggs, potatoes, (the homemade salsa was really good), biscuits and gravy, yummy. Eggs Benedict for my wife and a plate-sized kids' chocolate pancake for my son. All were very good. The pancake had a nice crunch on the outside. The hot chocolate was really good, coffee was meah, typical diner coffee. They don't take cash, which was surprising but kind of cool for some odd reason. Haha. They do have a cash machine on-site and take Venmo. This reminds me of an old diner in the Midwest—older inside, cozy feeling with hearty comfort food and very large portions. We really liked it here. Check this place out with a big appetite, patience for parking, and some cash in hand.

So so at best. Small portions and average quality food. Serving was decent and the place is quaint. But nothing exciting.
