We've been living in Canton 17 years and never ate at Basket Shack. Driven by many a time. We stopped by today (Saturday) for breakfast. The dining room is a little small but they opened up another table for us. The staff is very friendly. I had the country ham with eggs, biscuit and gravy. My wife had a BLT with fries. All very delicious! Ham wasn't greasy. Biscuits are big and firm. Her fries crispy. Lastly, pricing is reasonable.
Found this place near where my son and his wife just bought their home. What a find!!! This is a quintessential Mom and Pop Southern diner. We came on a Saturday so only had the menu options (which are amazing) but during the week they have a meat and vegetable offering that looks delicious. They've been in business over 60 years and are super friendly. Felt like eating with family even for our very first time. The atmosphere is exactly what you'd expect from a country diner. You can sit at the counter or a table. We will DEFINITELY be back!
The food was made fresh. The Services's are friendly and always willing to help when asked The food tasted fantastic!!
Absolutely amazing every single time. Battered fries are life changing. Service is always great, hometown restaurant atmosphere, simply delicious food
The service was great the cook did an outstanding job and all the people in the restaurant are friendly its a great place to talk to people
I love the battered fries and burger. The service was excellent. Every time we come to GA we go to the Basket Shack before returning home. Small town feel for sure. Grew up eating there.
The Basket Shack is the very definition of local. Since 1967 (56 years) they have been serving up big hearty breakfasts and tasty lunches to locals. A very small business but big on southern hospitality. It was fun to watch the patrons talking to each other and interacting with the servers and cooks. I went with the standard eggs over medium, real hash browns and bacon (always extra crispy, lol). It's a very cozy place so can watch your meal being cooked and talk to the cook preparing it. So cool. A nice big breakfast at a very reasonable price. A rarity in this day and age. Listening to the counter chatter, it's a must I get back there asap and check out one of their big juicy burgers. A very cool local business that's been turning out great meals for many years. You need to check this one out.
If you're around the Woodstock/Canton area then you have to try Basket Shack. This place has great food, good service, and embodies the reason why I'll choose local restaurants over a chain any day of the week. I had their super burger and battered fries. Do yourself a favor and leave the no bean chili on when you order. This burger was better than most places I've been to across the country, and was not overly greasy like some burgers. This place is essentially a hole in the wall, but it's awesome.
A little hole-in-the-wall joint with an old small town vibe. Flavor and portions were good and I had a sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit with hash browns topped with onion and cheese, and a side of gravy. While my wife had a plain biscuit with strawberry jam. The biscuits are large and the crumb structure is more like a roll and not the flaky or buttermilk style. But still a decent choice for a breakfast sandwich. The gravy and hash browns were on point. Despite it still being before noon, I saw a number of patrons getting burgers and these appear to be a favorite. They are also generous patties and I look forward to returning and trying one of them.
I stopped and got a Bacon Biscuit on my way home from a trip one morning. Fast, Friendly, Service...lots of Regulars sitting around enjoying the atmosphere and good food. I'm looking forward to going in for a full meal some time.
