Such a welcoming small spot inside the peaceful village of Potter, with delicious ice cream! It was creamy and flavorful, and personally, the peanuts are the cherry on top! A lovely place to check out for travelers passing by on Interstate 80 through Wyoming and Nebraska! read more

We were driving back from Utah and wanted breakfast sandwiches. The food was incredible, first we tried fresh and flaky apple turnovers. Amazing! Then, we had some coffee and egg and cheese sandwiches to go! The atmosphere was inviting and we wish we didn't have to leave so soon! Would highly recommend this place! read more

My husband and I, took a lunch break on our roadtrip, in Potter, Nebraska at The Potter Sundry, "Home of the Tin Roof Sundae." We enjoyed a great meal, including their Award-Winning, Green Chili! They use the old apothecary cabinets, from back when the building was a drug store, over 100 years ago, for memorabilia and Local Artisan Made, products. I purchased some house-made, Enchilada Sauce and a beautiful gem stone necklace. #SupportLocal #SupportSmallBusinessOwners read more

Stumbled across this place on a warm Saturday afternoon and four hours of driving and thought ice cream sounded great. Looked clean with an attractive homey ambiance, so I walked in. There was a woman at the front register doing receipts - she didn't acknowledge me so I walked back to sit at the ice cream counter, passing a few people sitting at tables to visit after lunch. Was sitting there for awhile when a girl came from the back. She saw me, didn't say anything, and started wiping down tables from lunch. I waited a few minutes longer with nothing happening, figured they were done for the day and headed out. I stopped at the cashier and asked if they were closed - she said no, and asked what I needed. I said I just wanted to get a cone but had a full day and needed to get back to the road. "Oh, I can get that for you - I'll be back there in just a second," she said. So I went to the counter and sat. And sat... and sat. She had gone back to working on receipts and after three minutes I realized she wasn't getting up anytime soon. This time I got up and kept walking. I LOVE to support local businesses when traveling (and I travel 20-30K miles a year) and I see they have some GREAT reviews for their food. Unfortunately, the service here left me seriously wanting. read more

We do a lot of Yelp searching on the road, sometimes we are misled. But not at Potter Sundry. It was like stepping back in time. Everything was made to order and delicious. The ambience is exactly what you hope for in a quaint historic town of yesteryear. Service was personal and friendly. We will definitely bookmark this wonderful breakfast spot for our next road trip! read more

Love this diner is the tiny town of Potter!! The servers were nice and food surprisingly tasty!! I also bought 2 homemade jams from the town at the diner. Highly recommend to stop here if you take the I-80 and close by! read more

Excellent place to eat, good food, good service. Support your local small business.....get a tin roof sundae!!!

So glad I stopped in Potter NE. The Potter Sundry is a wonderful place. Got a really good apple pecan salad and a huge slice of pie. Nice little park across the street to sit out and enjoy a beautiful day. Was able to pick up home made jams as well. If I lived closer I would eat here every day. Thank you for making me feel welcome in your wonderful town read more

We went for lunch which great. The tin roof sundae was an ideal way to to finish off a meal or make a stop off the interstate 80. I know I will be there again every time I drive the Potter exit. read more

Okay. Driving from Omaha to Lake Tahoe. Stopped in Sidney NE and nothing to eat. Thank God we didn't, because just down the road in Potter NE was this gem of a diner. Awesome biscuits and gravy, incredible corned beef hash and the best green Chile this side of New Mexico. Stop here to eat. You won't regret it. read more

An amazing small town food find!! Excellent daily specials that are homemade!! And the Tin Roof Sundae is out of this world!!!

I stopped here on a road trip as part of my 'no fast food' philosophy. Super friendly and responsive staff. I sat at the counter and watched them putting together fresh ingredient salads and fresh made sandwiches. I ordered the Rueben with sweet potato fries, as recommended by the shop keeper next door. Delicious! The meat was so flavorful! It was cooked on the flattop and chopped up giving lots of caramelization and banging flavor. The fries were cooked perfectly. The place had a locals coming in as evidenced by the staff greetings. Enjoy a small town gem and support the locals. read more

Potter Sundry - Rueben with sweet potato fries - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Potter, Nebraska

Loved the food and service and the tin roof Sunday was perfect for this adorable restaurant. If you get sweet potato fries get the marshmallow dip and who knew that spicy cheese curds were better with Caramel? A fun treat for sure. Burgers and sandwiches were awesome. A great place to stop on your journey! Family friendly for the win! The restrooms are across the street and are wonderful and clean. read more

Potter Sundry - Tin roof Sunday regular size. Delicious! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Potter, Nebraska

Stopped by yesterday to grab some chocolate milkshakes and they were great! Definitely worth a stop if you are traveling through.

We stopped by here on the way through Nebraska to get a milkshake. It wasn't very good--too runny and syrupy. However, the service was great and the diner was eclectic and fun. There is one small gas station in town if you are passing through, but it is more expensive than gas in other cities. read more

Potter Sundry - Cherry black walnut shake - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Potter, Nebraska

We were traveling West on I-80 and were looking for a place to eat lunch when we found this place with good reviews. It sounded so nice and historic that we had to take a detour and see it. It's only a few minutes off the interstate into the town. We walked in an were greeted by a really nice you lady who seated us and gave us menus. They have a fairly wide variety menu and the prices are reasonable. I chose a Ruben with fries which was fixed just right and delicious. My wife got the Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato also very delicious. Their main claim to fame is a huge sundae called the "Tin Roof". We were stuffed but, decided we had to try it. We were going to split a small but, our server talked us into the mini since she thought it would better suit us. A couple sitting next to us got the small and it was huge. Our mini was just right for the two of us. This is an amazing place so if you are nearby do not pass us an opportunity to enjoy a great meal and a wonderful sundae. read more

Cute town. Very polite waitstaff. My family got some pie and jam to go. The strawberry rhubarb is amazing!!! We stopped here randomly and it's one of the highlights from our cross country trip. (Florida to Washington!)) read more

Fun location. Great history and friendly service. Good onion rings. Save room for the Tin Roof Sundae, which was invented here. And be sure to go next door to see the duck pin bowling alley. Absolutely one of a kind. Both the sundry and the bowling alley are worth the trip off I-80. read more

Stop here for the nicest people, cleanest restrooms, homemade jams and Tin Roof Sundays!!!

Great spot in Potter, NE. Don't pass this gem if you are in western Nebraska. They truly have the World's Best Tin Roof Sundae! read more

The hamburger patties were smallish but quality. They were out of GF buns, so that was disappointing. Sadly, 3 out of 4 of our orders were wrong. I will give them 4 stars because the meat and ice cream sundaes were so good. read more

We stopped here based solely on the first review of the tin roof sundaes. And they were delicious! Visiting fort Collins from California we have never been to Wyoming or Nebraska so on a whim we decided to drive to Cheyenne for lunch and then go for dessert in NE. We are our sundaes at a cute drugstore style ice cream counter. The owners were so friendly and lovely. Not much else going on in the town but if you're driving thru, it's worth a stop and a scoop! read more

Small place, but incredibly friendly service. Potter Sundry invented the Tin Roof Sundae back in 1916, and they've perfected it. Try one. You won't be disappointed. read more

Home if the Tin Roof Sundae -FANTASTIC! Also order the special. As travelers passing through we walked in on a Friday afternoon and the place was full of locals. Every single one of them had ordered the special. My husband also ordered it and it was just like his Grandmother would have made. They've also been named Best Dessert in the country by Food Network. Definitely a hidden gem. read more

Good bang for the buck ice cream. Tin Roof Sundae's got some delish vanilla and choco ice cream with mallows and some squirts of syrup. Topped with a couple nuts. Outstanding combo. Highly recommend. read more

This place is a real treat. My coworker and I stopped in on our way to work. We noticed we were going to be close to their closing time. We called to see if it was ok, and the woman working was more than pleasant and said we could still come on in. Great conversation with her and a gentleman there. Their tin roof sundaes were the absolute best! If you're in the area, it's definitely worth the stop. read more

Great family atmosphere in old-time soda fountain. Staff was prompt, nice. Prices were low - especially for the amount of food on the plate! Good home-style cooking. Wish we were early enough for a slice of pie - it goes quickly! Ice cream treats are to-die-for. read more
