Was really looking forward to this hour of the chicken cordon bleu it was dry. Needed a lot more liquid toppings. The chick was bland and the pack of honey mister was not enough after the toppings are gone it's just a big potato. I'll be back because I want to try more but I don't think I'll order this one again and I was really looking forward to it. read more

I got the original potato add fried chicken but when we received our order there was no flavor in both the potato and fried chicken. The fried chicken was also soggy and no salt could save this potato. Also the Bottle beverage that I had was big red and it was expired and sour. Very disappointing since I love potato shack in another area. :( read more

It was okay. We got it to go. I ordered the Buffalo sauced up chicken potato and a turtle cheesecake. The potato was good. The cheesecake was really small, however. I'm not sure I'll be back. read more

Great selection. But... spitting little pieces of foil out is not my idea of how to serve a baked potato. Instead of cutting thru the foil-wrapped potato and getting small pieces of foil in your customers meal how about taking the potato out of the foil before cutting it open. Maybe a sturdy paper or foil bowl instead of the popcorn tray. read more

Staff was amazing and the food was as good as ever. Can't enough of that chicken fried steak potato. Our also loved the corn dogs.

Ohh potatoes!! My husband grew up eating here and has wanted to take me here for years. I have to say the Hot Wing potato was hands down our favorite, my recommendation for sure!! I personally ordered the Chopped Beef potato, the BBQ sauce was a little too sweet for me honestly. (I ate my mom's Hot Wing left overs, lol) Now the serving sizes are crazy!! Enough for leftovers which make the price point worth in my eyes. I would 100% give a try, we called ahead with a 5-10 wait we got there in 15 and it was ready to go! Ohh they have a special for half off on Fridays for the classic potatoes before 9p, I think after 5. read more

This was my first experience and I was actually excited to try it but I didn't expect to pay over 40$ for 2 potato's and a drink. I read a few reviews and they were bad but I didn't think it was that bad but after my experience, I really could've gotten wings n more and it would've been wayyyyyy better. I said you know what okay let's try it , when you walk in the cashier in front had this attitude of I hate my job, like I get it I do but don't throw that on the people going in to have a meal, when asked about recommendations she would give this attitude of just order already. We ignored all of it said maybe she's having a bad day, then these potatoes come out and when I tell you I have never been more upset in my life about food this is what did it for me, I get a potato with cheese and ground beef like are you serious, I will say it's my fault for thinking it would come with more like sour cream , chives , bacon you know an actual loaded baked potato, the service was terrible from the beginning , food was disappointing especially for the price. Safe to say I won't be coming back read more

I have been going to potato shack since 2006. I've probably been hundreds of times across multiple locations (weekly in college) and sure it's not ALWAYS perfect but is it still the only place I HAVE TO visit when in college station. I've been to multiple Michelin star restaurants and live close to some of the best dining in Texas but nothing compares to a potato shack potato. First of all, I love potatoes. I probably get a baked potato once a month. I love how they have so many creative toppings! For me, the chicken parm and queso + meat on a potato? Genius! My husband likes the chicken fried steak and hot wing one. I will crave these "weird options" and try to recreate them to some crazy looks by others and I'm always disappointed in the end because they're never as good. I think the other major perk to potato shack is how soft their potatoes are. They don't just cook a potato, cut it in half and sprinkle cheese on top. It's SO SOFT they must pre-mash or somehow separate most of the potato from the peel then add toppings. Again, I've not had a potato as good anywhere else. Today we went with my little one and the staff was very friendly. Food came fast, was hot, correct, and delicious. How could I not give 5 stars? read more

My daughter is picky. But did love it. I liked mine. Huge portions. But it wasn't hot. Barely warm.

The food sucked. Potato was ok, but toppings were nasty. Specially the boudin. I was going to leave a 2 star review but as i was leaving i saw a sign of a texas longhorn logo with horns chopped off. All about school pride but it's unsportsmanlike and disrespectful for a business to put something like that on their walls. So they get 1 star read more

Humongous potatoes. Very friendly, helpful staff. You'd be surprised by the creativity of the menu offerings! Nice variety for everyone. Only thing, I wish they would season the skin of the potato. read more

Large portion so it's worth the money in that sense. I've had the BBQ meat potato too and didn't think it was that flavorful is my only criticism. read more

I've loved this place since I started at A&M (longer ago than I care to admit). The best potato on offer is by far the hot wing potato. It all just works - hot potato, crispy chicken, buffalo sauce, cheese, and ranch. It's ridiculous and oh so satisfying. This place has that old Ag charm. Yes, it's sorta dingy and rundown. It's supposed to be that way! Carve your name in the table and enjoy yourself a delicious meal. read more

Potatoes are big and amazing! The workers are really nice and the service is very fast!

Stopped by Potato Shack + for the first time, and can say I had a pleasant experience. Cashier was very friendly , and the food was fast and delicious . I did eat on Friday, and conveniently there was a special on 50% off for all potato meals. The BBQ Chopped Beef was good. Would definitely recommend for someone craving a potato. read more

I usually get the same things... Chicken fried steak potato, chicken broccoli and cheese potato or bbq potato. They are all ridiculously good. The HUGE potatoes are always light and fluffy all the way through! read more

Barely any chicken literally just all potato! Will never be returning. Super disappointed in this place

The Potato Shack is a classic foodie spot where one can eat on a budget. I entered the store and was immediately greeted with a large menu above the front counter and a smiling face. I had the Garlic Parmesan chicken potato. This potato was not your average potato, it was larger than I'm accustomed to. The chicken was well prepared but was just a tad bit heavy on the garlic. I left satisfied with plans on returning again. If you're looking for a quick bite on a budget, this is your spot. read more

My family and I arrived at Potato Shack in College Station just after 8:30 P.M. on a Friday night and placed our order for "dine in." The order was delivered to us at the table we were seated at, bagged up and packaged "to go." We should have taken that as a hint. But we didn't, so we un-bagged it, opened the to- go boxes, and started to eat. As we were eating we heard one of the workers, a young woman, being rude to other workers and customers. Then we heard a worker talking about being "out of potatoes" and to "turn the sign off" just before 9:00 P.M. Hours posted online show a closing time of 10:00 P.M. Moments later a worker came to our table and told us that "we're closed now. Is there anything else that I can get you?" I told her, "No, we have everything we need, but thank you for asking" and we continued to finish our meal. Yet again, we didn't take the hint. A few minutes later another worker came to the table and told us to leave, stating that they needed to sweep and mop. I objected at being rushed out of the restaurant when we were not yet finished with our meal, but he was insistent that we needed to leave so that they could finish closing. As I was putting my unfinished meal back in the "to go" bag my wife returned to the table from the bathroom and I told her, "We're being thrown out." Overhearing my remark the rude worker, who was sweeping, snapped, "Well, you don't have to take it that way." I replied that being told to leave before finishing our meal was rude and discourteous, I didn't appreciate it, and there really was no other way to take it. To that she replied, "Well, YOU need to be respectful of the fact that we're closed and WE have lives!" Indeed. Customarily when a restaurant closes service ends but diners are permitted to finish their meals. But apparently not at Potato Shack. At least not when this crew is working. My wife and I have been eating at various Potato Shacks in Bryan and College Station since they opened back in 1998 and have enjoyed many delicious meals at them. Since starting our family we've continued eating there, despite the fact that there's only one left and it's in College Station. We live in Bryan and it's a bit out of our way, but we still made the trip as often as we could. But we won't be making that trip any longer. We always make it a point to support locally owned businesses and it's disheartening to be treated this way at one. After this experience at Potato Shack we will never again return there. There is a reason why Potato Shack has so many one star reviews as well as comments about rude staff, and you should pay attention to them. It's an ongoing problem and the fact that it continues year after year makes it clear that the owner cares nothing about it or they would have made some changes. Over the years the problem with rude staff persists. But for us, it's not a problem any longer. Take your business elsewhere, like we are, to a restaurant where you will likely have a better experience. But at least try to support a locally owned restaurant. Hopefully one that appreciates and respects their customers instead of treating them with contempt like we were treated at Potato Shack. And if you're the owner of Potato Shack, please take this and your other one star reviews seriously and rethink your business strategy. While you still have one. Because eventually your lack of action to fix this problem is going to catch up with you. read more

So so good!! My second time having potato shack and the potatoes are huge, the inside of the restaurant is much bigger than it appears and super cute on the inside, also plays good music l. Definitely a good meal if you like to eat! read more

I am absolutely dumbfounded. my experience here has been next level with above and beyond service that exceeded my expectations completely. I never would've thought that it was possible for a dining experience to make someone's day but today at potato shack plus My dining experience was catered with friendly faces and quick service by all the employees. attitudes were phenomenal with Travis and Holly going the extra mile to make sure that my every need was attended to. This is only the beginning because when you get into the food this is actually something that may not be that popular right now, but it will up it will blow up when word gets out how flavor blasted the food is!!! Fed my entire family with leftovers for days! I can not wait to go back as this is my new favorite spot. read more

Looks like a tiny place from the outside but it's a lot bigger inside. Lot of food selections to choose from- not just potatoes. Service was nice and friendly. We ordered the Hot Wing potato and the Chicken Parmesan potato. HUGE potatoes, loaded with their various toppings. Quaint little neighborhood place. We will definitely be back to sample more items from the menu. read more

Parking- shared with shopping strip Facilities- picnic style benches & inviting atmosphere Service- fast & friendly This is a college town so the price point is affordable. The baked potatoes are delicious & I love how creative they are. All of the names are of popular dishes, hamburger, pastas, and BBQ. I didn't know those were all toppings for the potatoes. It was a great surprise and very tasty. read more

We ordered a few potatoes and needless to say it was only ok. I ordered the bbq beef potatoe but what I received tasted more like a sloppy joe same texture as well wasn't very tasty. We also received bbq suasage link which same thing didn't taste that great. The only one that was enjoy was the original. Don't know if we just caught them on a bad day. read more

Ok so I came here while having a hangover so my review may be a little biased. To be honest, I ordered the WRONG thing. I decided to get the chicken finger basket which totaled almost $14. The chicken had no flavor and I felt they weren't cooked fully. Not to mention there were 9 fries that came with my order which also had no flavor. My friends ordered the classic (mashed) and the garlic Parmesan (mashed) and I tried both. You're better off getting a regular potato or mashed potatoes. But whatever you do, DON'T get the chicken fingers. I'll be back to try some different things but not sure it's worth the price at all. read more

Chicken fried steak sandwich seemed like it was very poor quality and extremely bland for the price. Tots were soggy. Overall not very impressed read more

BEWARE! after MANY years of taking groups of kids there after the Texas A&M Judging Clinics - Potato Shack REFUSED to serve us! This is heart breaking bc I loved going and and brought kids EVERY time I came to college station! "Manager" was super unprofessional as well. This was a small group compared to our normal travel one star because I have to chose at least one... read more

Absolutely love it!!!! I live in college station but work in Oklahoma. So fer two weeks all I can think about is that savory baker stuffed to the brim with Buffalo chicken and cheese! Shiiiii just thinking about it got me salivating..... but that's just my opinion.... read more

GOOD not great but good. Not too crazy busy on gam day and you can get your order to go easily. I got the chicken fried chicken sandwich. My son got the chicken fried potato. I would and will come back. Unlike others, the staff I encountered were friendly. (Oops almost put an "e" on the end of potatoe up there like Dan Quayle did back during the bush presidency. Look it up if you don't know. It's funny and I don't think it was his fault because if they had given me a card with it misspelled I would have done the same thing. ). read more

Finally tried this place today at lunch after seeing pics of the buffalo wing potato. Better than I expected!! Prices are fine considering it's a pretty serious portion of potato-y goodness. Just added more cheese and ate the rest for dinner. read more

Although the food was good, the customer service here is absolutely HORRIBLE. The girl taking our order (on 3/12/18 at 6:30 pm, tall, dirty blonde hair) had the biggest attitude I have ever seen. Basically threw down our fried pickles onto the table and barely said a word to us. Your food can be the best in town but if you hire employees who don't give a damn about the customers and are just there for the paycheck, you're gonna lose a LOT of business. read more

It's been years since I been here an the one time I decided to go I order 2 chicken fried steak potatoes looks like they used one chicken fried steak for both. now they did put enough gravy. i also order cheese stick which I guess they ain't cook long enough the cheese wasn't even melted. I also ordered the pickle spears or whatever they were so soggy nothing crispy about it. Way over priced won't be going here no more I see why they only have one location left read more

POTATO SHACK GETS IT! POTATO SHACK'S "THE CATTLEMAN" GETS IT! They offer delivery through GrubHub. Say hello to kickass lazy meals when you can't be bothered to get out of your sweats. I'm not even talking about delivery anymore. The staff at 'Tater Shack are nice and won't judge you for coming in sweats. And seriously, try The Cattleman. Or Shack Fries with the cattleman's bbq ranch sauce. Or regular shack fries. The Texas Chili potato was damn good, but nearly impossible to eat without getting chili on your boobies. A small price to pay for food this good. read more

There potatoes are delicious but the service is terrible, the interior is run down and the seats are uncomfortable. Your best bet is to order by phone for self pickup and hope that they don't put you on hold for 10 minutes. read more

This place has good food but they advertised a half off deal on December 22nd and when I stopped by within their hours of business they were closed. Plenty of people were outside wondering what was going on and we could see an employee walking around inside but they never bothered to come to the door to explain what had went wrong, or why they cancelled the special. Was kind of a turn off from this place. read more
