"Having moved some eight months ago to the east Essex coastal town of Frinton-on-Sea I’ve been visiting numerous local eateries trying to track down the breakfast Holy Grail. Stop the press as today it’s been located! I heard about The Potatoe sic Shack from another diner at Fred’s café in Frinton. This morning with my wife and daughter we walked the 2 miles, building up a healthy appetite in the process, and were warmly greeted and seated at a table of our choice, excepting for one already reserved. We sat at a window table in what is a very cosy and welcoming interior photographs attached . The Shack, as it is affectionately and locally referred to, has several tables with about thirty covers and is decorated in a stylised but pleasing fashion and was soon buzzing with patrons. The Shack has a breakfast, lunch and dinner menu, it has easy wheelchair access, takes credit cards, has no customer internet, allows you to bring your own alcohol unknown if you have to pay corkage and recommends booking in advance if you want their Sunday lunch. Another patron who has been local for nineteen years couldn’t speak highly enough regards the roast dinner. A photograph of the main menu is also attached but in précis it is comprehensive and you can also go off pisté and custom build to your taste. The condiments, salt pepper, were in sachets and the sauces and mustard arrived decanted into separate ramekins. I ordered breakfast 3 see picture with the addition of black pudding and fried slice. It was absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked and well presented. My wife and daughter ordered more realistically and thoroughly enjoyed their food too. Will I return? Yes, yes and thrice yes. Will I supersize my order again? Time will tell? But presently I feel like Monty Python’s Mr Creosote. I cannot recommend that you visit this gem highly enough. It is also conveniently situated at the seashore end of Walton town for those bathers wanting repast."
