Cinnamon Roll

We love this cafe. Amazing food and service. From scratch bakery/desserts, soups, and specials you don't see everywhere along with the classics. They've become our go-to breakfast stop anytime we're in the area. You simply can't go wrong here.

We found this adorable little place on our way to play Whistling Straights golf course in WI. This is located in a small little town in Portage WI. Excellent food, impeccable service, really clean , amazing coffee menu for such a small town. Highly recommend if you're passing through.

Finished biscuits and gravy

I must admit there's nothing better than a great breakfast place. The place is pretty small but greatly decorated. The staff was super friendly and handled annoying customers very well. But the food was the real kicker everything I had was flavorful and warm and fresh and they do have a smaller menu but that's most great restaurant. Five stars would recommend

The outside is pretty unassuming but inside is nicely decorated and super clean. Came in for breakfast with our two little boys. Our food was delicious and everyone working was super friendly. Will definitely come back for the Brekky croissant with ham. Our youngest had on red shorts so is now on the wall of fame!

Veggie omelet!  Delish!!
Kate G.

This was our 1st visit to the Red Shorts Cafe! We both decided to try some breakfast offerings on the menu! So we both enjoyed the delicious Veggie Omelet! It was filled with wonderful veggies (tomato, spinach, mushrooms and onions) as well as fontina cheese. I ordered the rye bread and my hubby the wheat toast. Both were homemade and served with homemade raspberry jams and honey butter. We definitely will be back and next time perhaps order some lunch items from their menu! Great place!

Overcooked eggs and bacon and toast.
Bart C.

I would give this 3.5 stars. I ordered fried eggs over medium with bacon and hash browns. I ordered an extra egg, for 3 total. The eggs were over cooked so there was very little yolk. You also only get 1slice of toast and 2 pieces of bacon. Except for the over cooked eggs, the bacon toast and hash browns were good. Most breakfast places give you 3 pieces of bacon and 2 slices of toast.

Mr Muenster. Ham, blackberry jam, fried onions and muenster on sourdough. Delicious!

Was driving through the area and stopped in for lunch. Cute place, very friendly staff, small town charm. My Mr. Muenster sandwich was excellent. I got carded for my mimosa so extra point for the wait staff (I'm almost 40). Would come back if I'm ever in the area again.

Great food. Great ambience. Just not the best place to bring little little kids. It's kind of tight spacing

We are visiting from Texas, and wanted a different experience for lunch. I read some reviews…read more. soooo we parked on 8th Street to adventure! It's so cute and cozy, literally a whole vibe! When we walked in - the smell of deliciousness smacked us in the face! We were seated at a little table - water glasses were filled and we started researching the menu! Our server was Shauna H. - she was the sweetest lil' doll! Very helpful and very attentive - we will definitely be back to request her on our next visit to Sheboygan! While trying to decide what to eat - I enjoyed a Bloody Mary with pickle vodka .. I'm picky about my drinks .. and OMG it was honestly THE BEST one I've had! It was so smooth and the sausage was so good! I could get in trouble with those! As far as the food - I couldn't decide if I wanted a bison or lamb burger .. I ended up choosing the lamb with sweet potato fries! The food was very flavorful and a HUGE portion! I ate about 1/2 my burger then had to strip the meat down to finish my lamb! We really enjoyed this visit!

The service here is always a miss…read more I have been here a handful of times and think this is a nice spot for breakfast and lunch in the downtown area. They have some creative options and nice drinks on the menu. So there are some positives... However, every time I dine here it takes a very long time to receive your food and check out. I understand a bit of a wait when it is busy, and that on weekends you can expect a longer wait for your food. I'm just shocked for how many servers are running around that things take so long or at the very least they aren't on top of refilling drinks and checking in while the food is made. Their kitchen is very small so I'm sure that contributes greatly to the wait time, but again, the service doesn't make up for it. Then top it off with my main dish being cold and a bit soggy, the price range is just a slap in the face at the end.

This place was such a cutie little stop before heading to the beach! I tried the pineapple iced tea…read moreand thought it was tasty and not too sweet. The pineapple muffin was also delicious! I've never had a pineapple muffin before and loved it! I will definitely need to come back to try some more of their food because many things in the menu sounded good!

Stopped in for a light lunch on a Saturday afternoon. We had a cup of rooibos and blueberry tea and…read morea small Americano in real cups (not takeout cups). Happy that they offer real crockery. Tea and coffee tastes better in real cups, plus I hate the waste - if you're not planning 'To Go' then you don't need a to go cup. Their cups were on the small side and both were cracked or chipped. So while I appreciated the real cups, I think they need to invest in larger, newer mugs. We had the sausage roll and the quiche. Both were fresh and tasty though I noticed afterwards that the menu says they come with fruit and salad and we didn't get that. Not sure why. The tables were all dirty when we tried to find somewhere to sit. There didn't appear to be a member of staff in charge of cleaning up the cafe so we just had to wipe the crumbs onto the floor with a napkin. I knocked off a star for all of these negatives - the cracked cups, lack of fruit/salad, and the dirty tables. I would still visit again. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the baked items were yummy.
