Shady Acres Diner

Great food. Great service. They have a lot of great options but not a huge classic diner menu. More interesting. Polenta fries... Turnkey Ruben. Nice bfast bowls. Chowder. Great lunch stop.

First time visit. I drive by all the time but never had a chance to stop until recently. Steak sandwich as the special was great, tafioca pudding to go was great. Very happy I finally stopped in.

One of my favorite diners! Its a bit of a drive so I cant always go but its something I always make sure to visit when I'm in the area :] Food is always top notch, the waffle is my favorite (though I forgot to take a photo), but the milkshake is delicious too! And the decor is fun !

I was honestly surprised at how much I liked this place. With the title "Shady" Acres, and the location being next to nothing, I wasn't sure what to expect. Even walking in, the exterior is odd and felt like it maybe once was an old daycare or something with a side yard, add-on porch type thing, etc., you'll understand what I mean once you visit. The decor was hard to explain, somewhere between the movie Greece, family farmhouse, and modern upgrades, it's truly trying to be something but I'm not sure what. My food was great though, I always love when a place makes their corned beef hash from scratch. Portion was just right as well. It doesn't get 5 stars because although the staff was not rude, they weren't really friendly either. Our waitress seemed less than thrilled to be at work wit

Went way out of our way to try it out on a whim. Way out of our way by RI standards, so like 25 minutes. The place has an apocalypse cafe motif. It's totally tame, not like a Mad Max diner. Just a couple of cool decor items that make the place look different than anywhere else. It's really well decorated, to be honest. They have a theme and the place fits it exactly. On to food. Three things I have to say: polenta fries, polenta fries, and polenta fries. So good. We ordered some basic entrees and they were anything but. This place seriously plated our meals and gave a crap about what they looked like when they came out. Totally affordable. Not even close to being pricey. Absolutely exceeded our expectations in every way by being friendly and truly caring about what they did.
