Tate's Place: Delightful Desserts and All-Day Breakfast in Portage

Always friendly staff and a convenient stop along the bike trails, perfect for a casual breakfast or lunch. There’s a pleasant outdoor seating area, and the interior has that classic American diner feel. The meals are affordable, typically around $16 after tax and tip, with generous portions. My go-to order is the Irishman omelette with corned beef, a unique and delicious combo that’s become my favorite. They offer plenty of other creative omelette options as well. The only thing I wish they had is an espresso machine, but that’s just a personal preference.

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

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.

Comfort done right. Did not miss a beat. Ordered the Meat Lovers Skillet with Rye bread - eggs, over easy. Absolutely slapped. Every bite, told a century long story of flavor and delivery. Our server was Tallz F, she was waiting on a lot of tables and still made her rounds to make sure we were served right. Her teammates jumped in and offered beverage refills to help if needed. No question if we'll be back when we visit family.

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!

My girlfriends and I just had lunch there. The staff was friendly and attentive, food was tasty and well priced and the portions were large. We all needed boxes. Will return. Thank you Tates!

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.

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.
