    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.

    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!!

    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.

    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.

    We had a very good lunch. The waitress was nice and we chatted a little. The atmosphere is very nice and it works really well for a breakfast/brunch/lunch restaurant. We'll definitely go there again in the future.

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

    Food was delicious and creative. I had the omelette of the day and it was amazing. Staff were great. Wish the coffee was a bit stronger.
