It's a family restaurant and their isn't many of those left. Nice atmosphere and the food is okay.

Tonight I ordered the sirloin steak breakfast that advertised the steak at a weight of 8oz. I ordered the eggs over easy and the steak rare. It was dry because it was cooked more closely to medium. I cut off a little less than half to take home to my lucky dog. When I got home, I weighed the cut on a food scale. I was outraged that the piece only weighed 2.04 oz!!! From that I estimated my half weighed at the most 2.5 oz. That's a far cry from the 8 oz. as advertised. read more

I was in Fargo just for a day and stopped here to get breakfast before starting the next leg of my road trip. Pulling into thr parking lot and seeing it full made me feel like I was on to something good! You walk in to a small shelf with these gargantuan cinnamon rolls on display that I'm sure double as a pillow for when you eat the first one. Pro tip, Buy TWO!!! We were greeted and seated promptly and our drinks came out quickly. Our server was by soon after to take our orders. She did an excellent job and had a warm personality I hope to see so far up north! Being from a more southern state I found it interesting to see a "taco omelette" on the menu and almost didn't order it but I had to try! It was a fun change of pace and hit the spot. It's not gonna be go to item for me but it's always cool to try new things . It was delicious and chocked full of ground beef!! I enjoyed it with a dab of sour cream. Wifey enjoyed her eggs Benny and the kiddo had a pretty epic looking waffle. For two bucks you get all the cool whipped cream and strawberry compote!! Overall an excellent experience and it's easy to see the locals love it!! read more

Came here while we were visiting for a gymnastics competition. This is a cute local spot that gets pretty busy. Service was not super excellent, but it wasn't bad either. I got the 1/2 sandwich (BLT) and a cup of chili. When it arrived it came with half a grilled cheese sandwich instead. But I ended up giving it to my daughter because she ordered the adult portion grilled cheese, but I think our server misunderstood and ordered her a kids grilled cheese which came with only one half rather than two halves. The BLT was delicious and fresh tasting. I'm a fan of chili, I like it with and without beans. So if you don't care for beans, then this chili isn't for you. It wasn't spicy, but it was filled with meat and beans. It was pretty good! Overall, this is a decent place. Price is good. Portion is good for the cost. read more

Great local breakfast. Nothing over the top, just good comfort breakfasts. Servers very nice and somewhat attentive.

Four stars because at the very least you get what you expect, pretty good, but then you get something REALLY good. I will always go to the Shack when I want to but probably never at night. I was there in the evening l, early April, and the staff was VERY loud talking with each other, the whole restaurant was extremely noisy and the cooks and others were freely dropping 'F' bombs. Lots of them. I'm no prude but this is a family restaurant. It made my skin crawl. read more

This reminds me of a small town restaurant with the Country Kitchen-type building, diner food (with coffee and jelly packets on the table), tons of regulars and friendly staff. I've never been disappointed with the food or service here. I had excellent fried chicken, fish (Walleye if I recall), omelets, pancakes & probably more. On a visit, I ordered the Coffee Of The Day which came with an additional small coffee pot. When we were done, they offered a to-go cup for the coffee which I thought was nice. read more

Pretty good for a breakfast/brunch place. We came on a Sunday morning around 10:30 and took us an hour to get seated. If I would have known, I would have called ahead if they allowed reservations over the phone. You're not allowed to wait inside and you're told to go wait in your car, just so you know. It was very busy. They were out of cinnamon rolls by then and I was really looking forward to it. Their eggs and sausages were ok, I've had better. The pancakes and coffee was really good as well. read more

Delicious food! Service was friendly, but a little slow. However, they were very busy when we visited and were maybe a tad understaffed. Prices are very reasonable. The cookies were fabulous! read more

Stumbled upon the Shack recently on a company trip and we went to breakfast here. An absolute classic Diner that is right up my alley. I went with just a classic breakfast but others had a little bit of everything, all was very good. The workers were fast and kept our coffee cups full. Would definitely come back read more

I've lived in north Fargo over 30 years and patronized this restaurant since then. however under new ownership meals have gone downhil. three visits ago ordered French Dip. ugh so bad instead of thin slices piled high a thick slab of beef tougher than a dog eating a rawhide. couple weeks ago tried the Cod diner, loved during lent, again ugh. over deep fried. to the point of burnt. disappointed. last night ordered senior hot turkey sandwich. was good. took pictures of the amount of turkey. hardly nothing. I give up. best of luck. stick to hamburgers and breakfast read more

Service was great, but the corn beef hash was not. It was literally from a can, and I don't think at this price point things should come from a can. Salty and generic. read more

Cute little local spot to stop for a meal. The employees were all super friendly and the food was delicious. I had a BLT with fries and added a bowl of soup. Although it was soo good (turkey and wild rice) I should have gotten a cup. The bowl filled me up too much. My mom got an omelette and my dad had a grilled chicken sandwich. Although we didn't try them, their pastries looked delicious. read more

I found myself in Fargo, North Dakota looking for a good breakfast spot while in town visiting the Roger Maris Museum. Once again, Yelp came through with flying colors as I decided on The Shack on Broadway. The reviews, averaging a solid 4.5 stars, were right on the money. Jackpot! This is a relatively small local joint and I was immediately spotted by the locals as an "outsider" as I walked in the door with my black N-95 COVID mask. Haha. There was not another mask in sight...not on the patrons, not on the kitchen staff, not on the wait staff. Remember, this is North Dakota and I'm some dude from Motown. However, I quickly found North Dakotans to be some of the friendliest people in the world as I removed my mask and made small talk with the waitress about her hometown before ordering. She strongly recommended the omelettes joking that "you can't get a better omelette between here and Grand Forks". It wasn't until I checked the map later in the day and found that there was absolutely NOTHING but corn fields between Fargo and Grand Forks! She gave a special nod to the Western Omelette for its hearty chunks of delicious local ham. She also tipped me off to the Shack's gigantic frosted cinnamon rolls. I'm drooling at this point...as I jumped for the Western in the restaurant and a Roll to go. The Shack on Broadway totally lived up to its billing and we split the gigantic cinnamon roll 4 ways. Highly recommended and deserving 5 big stars. read more

Awesome cinnamon rolls!!!! If I had the time I would've stayed for breakfast as to food looked amazing and the line of people waiting was another great indication that this was a great spot to eat. read more

I love the Shack! If my kids visit, they also enjoy it. The waiters are welcoming and with smiles. A special place loved by North Fargo! Great soups! read more

We're in town dropping our son off for college. One of his coaches recommended this place for breakfast. It was DELICIOUS!!! We were so hungry I forgot to take some pics. The food came out hot and fresh and our server Jason was great. This will definitely be one of our go-tos whenever we're in town! read more

I was discussing where I was going to have breakfast with a coworker, who recommended The Shack on Broadway, and spent about five minutes talking about the caramel rolls. Sweet stuff really isn't my thing, so I'm unlikely to try them. I heard no fewer than three of the nearby tables going on and on about the caramel rolls while I ate, so apparently unless you legit don't do sweet stuff like me, TRY THE CARAMEL ROLLS! I had the hooligan burger, and that thing is a hooligan. It's a chili burger with their in-house made chili, which is awesome! I make awesome chili, and am way judgemental about chili, and this is right on par with my own, but with hardly any real kick (I mean, too much heat and nobody will be able to eat it.) So yeah, I found myself a new favorite place. read more

Fantastic food. Service was great. Love the cafe feel and atmosphere. We try to visit at least once a month.

It took almost 90 mins to get into the restaurant, had to wait in a cramped mud room with 7 other people, it was winter and the tiny heater they had in there did no help, they had a tiny bench seat that barely held two people, while everyone else stood around. The food was definitely not worth the wait, price was too expensive. They had stickers placed everywhere stating they were on dives&Dinners tv show. Claimed awards and such, which is why we went there, they must have paid for the award, because they were horrible experience, and definitely not worthy of any awards. read more

I can't give this restaurant a bad review even though we had an unpleasant experience there which I hope was an anomaly. I brought it to the manager's attention. Mark seemed genuinely and sincerely apologetic. We appreciated his response. Our meals were decent. We were there for "brunch" (breakfast food at lunchtime by our definition). Our party of two had the breakfast steak with over easy eggs and pancakes and the country fried steak with scrambled eggs with cheese and pancakes. Coffee and herbal tea to drink. Our meals were decent. Our poor experience was service related and did not seem related to how busy the place was (late morning on a Sunday) but Mark the manager's response went a long way toward smoothing things over. Give this restaurant a try and let Mark know if something is amiss. He did a great job responding. read more

The breakfast is sooo good! Hashbrowns were perfect and buttery and the bacon was actual thick cut bacon cooked just right. Best diner breakfast I've had! read more

The food was Great! Never had a breakfast that was served so hot and quick. Super friendly servers.

EGGS BENNY 4EVER!!!!!! The Shack is reliably wonderful. Go early to avoid a line- but even if you do end up in line, they'll take your name and number and you can wait in your vehicle instead of cramped in the restaurant. read more

Very tacky that they added a fee on the bill for a "guest charge. " I asked about it and were very rude. I definitely do not recommend. it's disrespectful to add extra charges. read more

The food was good and portions were generous, but the service was most excellent to us! Our waitress was great, and so were all the folks around us. What a friendly place! We didn't try the caramel roll, but apparently it's the best in ND! We would gladly return. read more

Very large portions. Home cooked meals. Craving a large breakfast or hot turkey/roast beef with fixings? this is your place. Attentive service. Typically busy but was able to seat 8 quicker than expected at lunch time read more

The atmosphere is nice with quick service. Country fried steak and eggs/Hot turkey is an easy decision. Good quick choices for children.

The best service in all of FM area. Friendly and fast. Food is fabulous. I eat there at least once a week. You'll love it.

This place had high yelp and Google reviews. I can see why! They were so busy and the line at the door never stopped. Cute diner (I love the mom and pop feel)...if it was bigger I'm sure there would still be a line! The staff hustled the entire time. And I was so happy with my lunch. It was great! I ordered the Turkey BLT and got sweet potato fries as my side. They were great!!! There was a dip with the fries. I loved it but can't remember what it was to look up how to make it at home. Definitely will be back when I'm here next year. read more

The Shack has a funny cult following that I can't totally understand. It's got fine food, pretty usual breakfast diner fare. The potatoes are decent but the coffee is weak. But nothing phenomenal or unique to write home about. The prices are okay for what it is. The staff are pretty friendly, but there is absolutely always a wait because the seating is somewhat limited. Not so sure the wait is worth it when there's plenty of typical breakfast food to be had all over Fargo. read more
