We had an awesome waitress and the whole staff was very friendly and welcoming. The food was amazing and priced reasonably and it was out very quick considering the place was busy. We will definitely be making this regular spot

I didn't find this location at first because I was looking for a mall and also a restaurant that looked more diner. This was the first time I ate here. I seek out mom and pop places when I travel. The atmosphere was great.It was busy but I only waited about 5 minutes to be seated. I was given a window view of lovely flowers and trees. I could watch the bumblebees flying flower to flower. My breakfast was good. I ordered a number 1.Two eggs, hash browns,bacon (choice) and English muffin. The bacon was crispy on edges but softer in the middle. I had hash browns with cheese and onion which were delicious. I had a minor problem with my eggs but it was resolved immediately. Overall it was an enjoyable experience.

I haven't been here in about 10 years and my husband and I recently moved to Portage so I decided to have us go here for breakfast to check it out again. I got the garden veggie Skillet and he got chocolate chip pancakes with sausage and eggs. Seriously such quick service, his drink never went empty (which is a huge deal for him)& our food came out so fast. We had to question whether it was our food because it was so quick! Everything was delicious and before we left the server even gave my husband a drink and a to-go cup. I wish I remembered her name, but she was amazing! Front desk where we paid was very nice and the lady asked if I wanted a bag for my food before I left. From today, definitely seems like Tate's place has all the little things that make up A good customer experience down. And our food was so good and fresh! It was a little expensive for being breakfast, but I know that inflation is real and honestly it's still worth it for the experience that we had. Highly recommend!

Great place to eat. Had breakfast one week it was great food. Had lunch the next time it was even better. Prices are the best I've seen in a long time. Also remember to tip your server. Also I've never been to place where food comes out quickly,even when they are packed.

My friend and I were looking for a good place to grab lunch, and we were so glad we found Tate’s Place—it was exactly what we were looking for. I had the BLT club, and my friend ordered the sandwich special, both with waffle fries. Everything was excellent—delicious, home-style food made with fresh ingredients and generous portions. The food came out surprisingly fast, especially considering how busy it was. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, and she kept my drink filled, which is always a big plus for me. We’ve definitely added Tate’s Place to our list of favorite spots and will be coming back!

Excellent place to dine! Visited this diner this past weekend while visiting friends. We ate there twice during our visit. The waitresses were exceptional and friendly! They were on top of it if you had a low drink or needed anything! Food was great and the patio was clean! My friends and I are definitely coming back next visit! Thank you so much for the great service! Keep up the good work :)

Visiting from MI. What drew me here was the pint sized mason jars for glasses. My server, Katie, was great. Super personality, always checking to see if I needed anything. The food quality was amazing. Apparently I hit a special “ham off the bone”. Overall taking everything into consideration, except my broken yoke, not, price, value, quality, service. SUPER. Will be back again when time allows. Highly recommend them.

Really good food. Perfect for right off the trail. 🚴🏻‍♀️🚴🏻‍♀️ I see why it’s so busy all the time. Buffalo tenderloin was really good!
