I have been to Manhattan so many times and have never stopped to eat here before! But what a great spot! My brothers band preformed here in the evening so my family and I went along to see them preformed and enjoy some food/drinks! They have American style food along with breakfast food and pastries. It is kind of like a bakery and bar. The service was phenomenal!! They were so happy to host my brother's band and were kind to all the people who showed up for them. My favorite thing i ordered was the macaroon. It was soft, sweet, and delicious. I will definitely be returning to this place! read more

This was my first time there. I was surprised with how big the inside of the restaurant was. We ate out on the patio. It was nice and roomy. They had chalk for the kiddos to play with. I ordered the corn pancakes. They were really good. The biscuits and gravy were a little spicy and so good. My iced latte was great. Service was good as well. read more

Coffee was really good with lots of options to choose from. The burgers were great too, and I loved their fries and ranch. We also played a game while we were there, which made the experience even more fun. read more

This was a fun, Sunday brunch location after visiting friends in Manhattan and we're about to heading back home. The restaurant was an old gas station/ body shop when I went to school in Manhattan when I went to college. Now it's revamped to a retro place to grab a bite for breakfast or lunch, baked good, morning cocktail, and coffee. It had indoor and outdoor seating allowing with various seating options from indoor bar seating to tabletop or outdoor covered to uncovered choices. They had a lot of friendly faces working with a flow of customers that kept the employee constantly moving; however, it made it difficult to keep the coffee cups constantly topped. The menu is not extensive but what we did order was frustratingly delicious. I was cautious to order anything more out of fear to be disappointed. I think I should have risked trying something else while I had the chance. There was four of us and we all tried, Drinks - Iced Latte ( ordered twice) - Hot Coffee (kept refilling by Paramour Coffee) - Espresso Tonic ( I didn't order this originally but I did finish it since I liked the citrusy beverage) Food - Cinnamon Roll from Little Batch Co (right next door), a fluffy huge and delicious cinnamon roll that tasted homemade with love - BISCUITS & GRAVY ,fluffy buttermilk biscuits smothered in chipotle sausage gravy. Served with two fried eggs and herb roasted potatoes.* (choice of condiments Goujhang, honey mustard, ketchup, and ranch) - Buttermilk Grits Roasted Vegetable - roasted summer vegetables, breakfast potatoes, pickled red onion and crema served over buttermilk grits. I split with a friend and each of us ordered a side egg. I made sure the plates didn't leave the table licked clean. read more

Had such high hopes for this adorable little spot. Love the atmosphere. The service was great. But for us the food just did not push it over the top. I am not sure what we were expecting but we didn't get it. I am not hating on this place and I want others to go check it out for themselves. read more

Cute grill in Aggieville in Manhattan, Kansas. I ordered the Parkside Breakfast Plate and I had my 2 eggs scrambled, two slices of bacon, sourdough english muffin and breakfast potatoes. Great made to order breakfast. Everything on my plate arrived hot or very warm. The eggs were not overcooked and were seasoned nicely. The breakfast potatoes were diced kinda small. I prefer mine larger because they have the tendency to be more dried out like these were. I just used ketchup to perk them up. The bacon was tasty and delicious. I couldn't pass on the sourdough english muffin which was so tasty. Very friendly and inviting grill and clean. If it was possible I would have given them 4.5 stars. read more

Adorable! Parkside features a modern, retro design in a converted garage, with a cool and casual ambiance. I stopped by for a quick lunch when I was in Manhattan, KS for a few weeks and was drawn to this uniquely designed restaurant and bakery. They were pretty busy for lunch, but my service at the bar was quick and friendly. I ordered the summer vegetable grits, which were flavorful with quality ingredients and ample vegetables. I didn't get a chance to try any of the baked goods, but they looked delicious. Highly recommend a visit! read more

Stopped for a bite and enjoyed it quite a bit - the various benedicts we ordered were yummy and quite creative, and the outside dining area looks like an enjoyable place to hang out. Didn't get to try dinner menu but all the items sound appealing. read more

Okay, so I read past reviews and looked at the ratings. WTF? Are you people tone-deaf to your ignorance? The ambiance at Parkside is excellent, mid-century modern, carved out of an old garage. The menu is an eclectic spin on traditional American food. Everything appears to be handcrafted and, in my opinion, well executed. The breakfast burger with the pimento mornay was lovely. The buttermilk grits were quite tasty. The bread pudding with crème anglaise was fabulous. The super simple but delicious vegetable sandwich was fantastic. Folks start by ignoring the winy reviews. Now there's nothing left to do but get ya some! read more

I just spent five or six dollars on a red pepper/cheddar savory hand pie/tart... It's soggy- it's semi warm so I think it was refrigerated overnight and put out and it is not what it should be... When Parkside was Little Batch in the store next-door it was always outstanding since it's been Parkside it's not good ...if you are selling pastries baked goods etc. anything day old needs to be sold at a discount because but I've just spent five bucks for wasn't worth it I have another review for Parkside up and it's been quite a while since I've been there but I thought oh surely things are different... They aren't read more

Outstanding food, service, and atmosphere! Parkside is a fun relaxing place to enjoy a meal, a drink, and a great outdoor place. The menu is simple but great. Cannot go wrong and highly recommend! Live music sometimes too! read more

Wonderful, made fresh breakfast! I had the steak and eggs and it was tender and perfect. Highly recommend. Call ahead first so you don't have a long wait time. Our server was sweet, intentional, and personal. Great place! read more

Husband wanted "a really good cinnamon roll" for his birthday, so I thought since the pastries and baked goods served here are all made in their own next door bakery, they would be good. They were NOT! The cinnamon rolls were overcooked and extremely dry as well as overpriced. I wish I had saved money and time and just bought some at local grocery store. I will not be going back and would not recommend this place. read more

Really enjoyed our brunch! Nice change of scenery compared to the other places in Manhattan. Can't wait to come back! read more

Cute new place! The atmosphere is very modern and welcoming. The coffee is great from Paramour however the food was bland. I got the eggs Benedict and there was lack of any flavor as well as one of my eggs being wayyy over cooked. My boyfriend got the biscuits and gravy which you could barely taste the chipotle flavoring, both of our potatoes were cold. The service was great and very nice staff. Worth a try but not sure if we'd go back soon. read more

Location and atmosphere is great! Friendly staff. Food is good and there is variety. GF and V options! Very slow service, not a place for a quick meal. Took about 45 minutes. read more

Awesome atmosphere, family and dog friendly, awesome food, great location on Poyntz, great service to anyone that needs help.​

A fav. My husband and I pick up bagels and baked goods at least once a week. Love that they do everything: cafe, bar, bakery, restaurant. Such a great addition to the neighborhood! read more

I was visiting my son at Kstate and took him there to try a new spot. The restaurant was cute and well decorated. His burger was good but my jerk chicken was terrible. No jerk seasoning/no flavor at all. I was so disappointed. Actually it was not even a good baked chicken. When I questioned the server about it they brought me hot sauce and salt and pepper. I should've asked for a manager but I didn't and should've. Jerk chicken should not need all of that just to eat it. I'm not sure I am willing to get disappointed again. read more

I've come here a few times already. I've forgotten this is Kansas, when you order poached eggs, they extremely over poached. So we have to lower our standards when it comes to cultural appropriation and deal with it. Beggars can't be choosers. This was my first time getting a croissant here. I've noticed in the mid-west no one makes them they way they should it's always burnt. They still supposed to be extremely light golden brown and soft when you take them out the oven. Also no one here remembers to spray them with water before this bread is baked in the oven either. Coffee is great thou. Coffee shop kind of has an attitude. read more

Not good for gluten free!! They used to have tons of gluten free options but since getting new menus they have 2 options, which are both salads! The waiter was very dismissive about figuring out what was gluten free! Used to be my favorite place, but their lack of service and options is making it a lot less appealing. read more

Still am a fan, but Parkside doesn't offer to-go savory orders. This disappoints, especially when ordering pastries and would like an order of something savory to-go as well. We miss the takeaway grits and biscuits! They were our favorite breakfast at the Little Batch Saturday pop-up before the cafe opened! read more

Great atmosphere but 90 minute wait for food with no communication from management. Will not return.

Great vibe. Great setting. Awesome food. Had the MahiMahi, mussels and the pimento cheese. Fantastic! Outdoor seating across from city park really is unlike anything in this town!! Get here! read more

It has been some time since I went to Parkside Station and I held off from leaving a review. I thought I would forget about it and leave it alone, BUT I can not get the bland, small, low quality NY strip that I paid 40 dollars for out of my head. You can get better marbled cuts of meat at any grocery store. I am sad about my eating experience there and sad that I paid so much. Ambiance and service was great but I can make a better steak at home. read more

I've been here for lunch and dinner. The food was very good, and the service too. The space inside was loud. The glass and hard surfaces amplified the chatter and restaurant sounds to an uncomfortable level. Outside seating looks great and you can't beat the location! P read more

Do not order the Lemon Thyme Chicken. My meal gave me awful food poisoning. Will never be going again.
