★★★★★ 5.0 Tim Marshall · Jun 2025

The place was packed for the holiday but we were seated quickly. Bendy straws and deliciously crispy fries are only part of the reason to visit. The food comes to your table hot and the staff is friendly. The poutine burger was a great choice! There is a jukebox that takes quarters which has a wide catalog of music. I unfortunately did not bring any coins to test it. Very happy with the overall experience and the price was reasonable too.

We visited Shorty’s Place for the first time after picking up my sister from the airport, and it did not disappoint! The 50s-themed atmosphere was fun and nostalgic. The food was great, with plenty of options for everyone, and everything we ordered was delicious. Our server was friendly, fast, and made us feel right at home. We had a booth, and we were really looking forward to using the tabletop jukebox to add to the vibe, but unfortunately, it didn’t seem to hold the quarters, more so spit then right back out. Not a huge issue though, as it didn’t take away from our overall experience. We’re definitely planning to come back next time we’re in the area!

Stopped here for a Sunday lunch while visiting my son at Ft Drum. This place brought me back in time for sure. Good was good and the service was really good. He had a huge breakfast and I opted for a salad and fries. Plenty of parking and seating. We did not have to wait long to get a seat. Would go back again when I’m back in the area.
