Spud Shack — Restaurant in Town of Pine Plains

Absolutely hands down one of our favorite places now! We were just passing through and the restaurant caught our eye so we decided to stop on our way home. So glad we did.

The woman who took our order was lovely. I believe she was the owner as we chatted about how long they've been there. Their food is unique and has fun names!

I got the Mexican burger with bacon, waffle fries, and a drink. Hubs got the Cowboy burger with sweet potato fries, and a drink.

The flavor is out of this world. The atmosphere is so fun -- a juke box, retro decor, a more private area good for families with kids games. Great ambiance. We were both happy with our choices and will definitely be back...

I was there on a Sunday late afternoon... It has a fifties vibe, very clean and cozy... You order at the counter and I found the person working their very pleasant... All of that was good... Now I have a problem with a place called a Spud shack that doesn't have baked potatoes, (they were out) nor did they have steak fries or curly fries... But I ordered the basic French fries with cheese and bacon and they were good... Also ordered the cheeseburger and got a water... The cheeseburger was cooked properly (medium) but it was dry, but the brioche bun was good... Total bill was 14$ ... If not for the dry burger and no real Spud choices I would have given this...

We stopped in on 4/17 since other places were closed along the Taconic Pkway heading south from the Massachusetts turnpike.

It seemed lovely on the phone after a search and we headed there. I ordered chicken tenders with fries & the husband a burger which was mostly bread along with fixings. Well my fries were literally all salt and when I brought this up to the owner she felt offended.

First of all it SHOULD be the customers choice to add salt. They wanted to charge me another fee for fries and did not seem to comprehend that they needed to correct the issue.

Most establishments would work with customers to correct and...
