    Inside the cafe

    This cafe is attached to the Idaho Potato Museum and the food is just fantastic - we had a great experience!! Delicious, harty foods on a very cold, snowy day to refuel after our busy museum visit! Decent menu, lots of fun potato candy to try - even cupcakes! And friendly staff - can't go wrong here. I tried their baked potato with poutine on top and it was SO good! My son got their baked potato soup with potato roll and I had a sample taste - best thing we ordered! Creamy and smooth and full of flavor - it was excellent - and the roll that came with it was soft and so delicious. We also tried a couple of their potato cupcakes - one vanilla and one chocolate - both excellent flavors and very soft and velvety. You'd never know they were made out of potato haha! I also grabbed some of their various local candies made from potato - very fun souvenirs and all tasted good. I had no idea you could do so much with potato haha!! There's plenty of parking, clean bathrooms, coffee on the menu, cozy seating - very great addition to our museum visit!

    I found this place on yelp and it was on our way back to the hotel so decided to stop by. Idaho is know for the potato state so it is as once in a life time experience. The parking is on the side. There's a giant potato in front. It was my husband, my 4 year old son , and me it cost $12. It is a very small museum but definitely a lot of history in there. It's two large rooms. Then there's a small gift shop and a small restaurant at the end. Everyone is so nice there. If you're in the area stop by.

    The café at the potato museum in Blackfoot Idaho. I'd be surprised if this isn't the worlds best baked potato it's a russet Norkota

    I'd be surprised if this wasn't the worlds best baked potato. It's a Norkotah Russet and it's simply amazing!

    After exploring potato museum we decided to try the potato station cafe. From the menu we ordered Fried Potato along with the fries. The service was good and we got our food in 10-15 minutes. The fried potato with different ingredients as well as sauces was amazing and we loved its taste. The fries that we ate were also good. Loved the cafe.

    The women with medium length red/light brown hair was incredibly sweet. She made my visit there delightful. The potato soup was creamy and rich and was ready quickly. I enjoyed my visit here and to the museum.

    The potatoes are delicious, comes with topping of the day. They have a topping bar also Can't say a lot about potatoes.

    Baked potato.

    Rough on the outside, but tender in the inside. Great Idaho potatoes selection in town. They are creamy and delicious.

    We were driving through Blackfoot on a road trip and needed a place to work remotely from. We saw…read morepositive reviews about this cafe and decided to check it out. The staff was SUPER friendly! So kind and didn't mind us sitting in the corner for a few hours while we worked. The internet worked great! We had both breakfast and lunch here. For breakfast, she warned my fiancé that the pancakes were huge! For lunch we split a sandwich and they split it onto two plates for us, which was so nice of them. Sadly they close in the afternoon otherwise we'd have stayed even longer and kept working and purchasing. It is attached to the gas station shop and shares a bathroom, that's a little weird but the good food and kind people makes up for it. We had "sidewinders" which I'll include a picture of they're the potatoes that look kind of curly, they're delicious!

We also ordered and paid for an omelette with a side dish of hashbrowns. Didn't get hashbrowns!!! We thought we were the subjects of a practical joke because the food we did get was a joke!!! We want a refund!! I wish I had checked my to go order before driving off. Had I looked in the bag I would have asked for a $18 refund!!

    Not only is the drink selection abundant, offering something for everything that's trending, and…read morethe outliers too, the coffee and espresso are rich, busting with full bodied flavor befitting of the name--Wake Up Call. I just got the amazing caffeine, but also boba, London fog--there's character limits here so lol, you get the idea. This location is brilliant for a drive-thru coffee, energy and drink infusion shop. It sits in a V lot, with entrance and exit on both sides. Whether you're headed North, South, East or West, jumping off, swinging in here for a quick drive-thru, or even a dine-in lets you jump right back on. I expected the typical coffee drive-thru service when we got here, with all pre-made items and an order taker with a tablet--Nope. This is full scale hospitality, serving up locally sourced drinks and cinnamon rolls. They are also furry friends friendly, and have puppuccinos. We don't typically do drive-thrus, so we came to dine-in at the contemporary beach-themed coffee shop. As soon as we walked in the vibe Just chilled us out. Great place to relax with comfortable tables, chess and checkers for the long stay--We knew this was going to be nice. Tegan, the young lady who works with the owner, Denise, expertly took our orders. While my order is simply a turbo(drip add a shot), my other half--She likely put Tegan to the test, lol. She was tantalized by all the sugar-free flavors, and was able to get something she can't get at many places. I could hear the excitement in her voice when she told me that she ordered a brown sugar-cinnamon, caramel and hazelnut mocha. We both got cinnamon rolls (Yes, she has a cheat day on the food, but not on her drink), which are supplied by a local baker named Lindsey (sp?). She doesn't have a storefront, but she obviously offers her talents to local establishments, and does catering. They also have some other prepackaged items, but I imagine those cinnamon rolls are a big hit. Denise and Tegan quickly got to work on our drinks, and warming up our rolls for us. Watching those two; They are like peas in a pod. Not blood related, but you can tell they are practically family. Both of them exude hard work energy, while smiling, laughing and taking care of the place like maître d's. They just made it easy to be there, take pictures, ask questions, and just relax while enjoying a fantastic!!! cinnamon roll, and some SUPERBcoffee drinks. So whether you need to hop off for a fill up of your thermos and hop back on, or ready to kick back in a pretty chill environment to grab a quick bite and savor your drink, these folks can meet your need. Go here--You won't regret! 16* five for the variety and the atmo, five for the consumed, and six for the peeps. Thank you for reading. You can thank me after you check this place out. I'm not great at pics and vids, but I hope they're worthy of this sweet little spot.

And our barista hand delivered them to us. The kids loved the fruity boba drinks. Right off the freeway, and so easy to get back out in either direction; this is where we'll stop next time we're passing through and parched. The only thing I'd say this nice little spot is missing is some ambience. Ambient music, maybe some books or small table games around the place.

    We made a trip from Hawaii to Salt Lake City specifically to visit the Idaho Potato Museum (long…read morestory). Drove almost 4 hours to get there and then another 3+ hours to Boise to visit friends and flew home from there. Was it worth it? Well, we actually had a really great time! There was enough to keep us interested for a couple hours. Typical museum displays were supported by videos, some talking potatoes, even a cute Virtual Reality Tractor and some video games. After we went through the exhibits, we ended at the cafe and got a baked potato and some fries. You can have anything you want on them, so we got chili and cheese, sour cream, and bacon. The only sad part was that they were out of gnocchi. Lots of parking and there are some shops in the area. So, yes, we're really glad we went and recommend it if you're in the area.

    First off, this was my wife's idea!…read more I mean, when you're driving through the middle of BFE, Idaho, and you see a sign for a potato museum, you usually just keep on driving, right? Well, not this time! All jokes aside, this was a fun little wayside distraction, tucked away "in the back" of Blackfoot, but worth it for the kitsch and novelty of the whole thing. Our kids certainly loved it, particularly the potato family projection in the "basement" that narrates the harvesting and storing of potatoes; our three year old couldn't stop staring and laughing! In additions to displays, videos and dioramas detailing every potato fact you might ever want to know (and more), there's also a quaint little café at the back purveying all manner of potato products, from fries and other fried things, to the good ol' Irish Sundae (a baked 'tater dressed just how you like it), so you can get your carb load for the day in whatever form you desire! Admission is cheap (a few bucks per person), and a great way to kill some time, or break up the monotony of a road trip.

The friendly staff and engaging owners make this a very unique and inviting cafe (a close second). The fantastic fresh Made-To-Order inventive sandwiches along with the decadent pastries (I admit, are equal to coffee), and then the bomb of never-ending discoveries in this fantastic gift 'emporium'--on top of that, they are ANIMAL FRIENDLY!! We saw some of the cutest pups, but only got pics of one. All of this flowing seamlessly together makes this place one of a kind. This is a fantastic breakfast brunch spot with a quiet and inviting atmosphere. The Cafe has a nostalgic feel, with comfy & cozy retro style seating and large solid wood tables scattered about a uniquely eclectic gift shop. The blackberry scone was exceptional, so we asked the counter staff about it. We were told that the baked treats--along with bread loaves that are sold to local establishments--are made by the owner's wife, Elaine Kelvie, downstairs in the bakery (baked goods available in the counter display case on main floor). She even took the time to go downstairs and alert her that we loved her baked creations, and would like to meet her. Elaine came upstairs and introduced herself to us, while we praised her for our delightful cinnamon roll and blackberry scone. The other owner, her husband Bill Kelvie, who had made my delicious roast beef and pepper jack on toasted rye, came out from the back and introduced himself to us. He told us a little bit about the other shop they own in the historic building, the neighboring Gate City Gift & Gallery. Get this--the owner who made our great food, his MOTHER works/runs that neighboring Gift & Gallery shop. These are wonderful friendly people. We marveled at the many curious gifts that surrounded us while we sat and enjoyed our food. After finishing our indulgent meals, we began rummaging through the never-ending discoveries. Fascinated by the unique treasures that constantly drew us to their other massive gift and antiques shop next door. There's some really cool canvasses by local artists hanging for sale in there. I could not even see it all because It's two stories, with some unique clinics consigning space on the second floor, and climbing the spiraling stairs to up, would be an exhausting adventure for me, but WE took pictures for you. This wonderful Cafe and it's neighboring shop are a Must-Go-To. Check the photos.
