Reviews
For food, I picked the Seasoned Chicken Salad… Only to be told that they were out of chicken. Seemed odd to be out of chicken on a Saturday lunch situation, but no biggie, I asked for egg salad instead. But when my salad arrived, it was with hard boiled eggs instead of egg salad. No biggie with that either, the salad was delicious, fresh, and tasty (even with it being not what I expected). Just a really good arrangement of healthy crisp ingredients. My wife ordered one of the panini specials off the board and we were warned that it might take a while because they could only make 2 at a time and several people ordered paninis in front of us. Our expectations in that were far exceeded because all the food came out together and in good time and the wife enjoyed her panini. Our pescatarian teenager tied ordering tuna salad. Like the chicken salad, they were out of tuna as well, so our kid got a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, which was big but our kid didn’t eat much. Sounded like the ratio of PB and J was off a bit, but our kid raved about the bread.
Other people in our group had similar challenges with ordering, and we figured out that 1pm on a Saturday must be towards the end of service for the day. So just be aware of that if you go towards the end of lunch rush. Being out of chicken salad and tuna salad and some other things at 1pm on a Saturday just means more planning is required of the staff. Other than that service snafu, we very much appreciated being told up front about what was out of stock and what would take extra time. Stuff happens, we get it! It’s the communication and honesty that sets a place like this over others.
As for the atmosphere, it’s a small place with one big family style counter (with a big pole in the middle, unfortunately) and several smaller tables. They could get more space by moving the plasticware and condiments away and put another table or two there, and they would remove some of the things that remove from the atmosphere. The ambiance is fine, but nothing too special and it feels like getting food to go and eating somewhere else would be a better option.
Poppy’s Place is a great gem of a restaurant in a cool little town. If you’re looking for great food that makes you feel good to eat, you will love this place like we did! Poppy’s Place is highly recommended!
