The Coffee Pot

Great food, good prices, wonderful coffee. Stopped by the other day before looking through the book stores. Other than the stares from the locals, we had a very good time. Felt a little bit out of place as a tourist, but the omelette and coffee were worth it. Loved the décor and would stop here again if we were passing through.

The Coffee Pot is a good little family owned diner. Food is always delicious, and the owners are really nice. Prices can be a bit expensive for the amount of food you get, but it doesn’t bother me because it’s so yummy!
They also made a great recovery after the building burned down a few years ago. They’re back and better than ever!

Stopped for breakfast on our way to Minekill State Park — delicious food — I had the French toast with scrambled eggs and bacon and my husband had eggs over easy with corn beef hash — traditional and very good. Only thing was that the coffee was surprisingly weak — tasted ok but def could have made it stronger considering the name of the restaurant.

I could write a long review, but Ian’s review hits everything. Good straightforward diner.

The Coffee Pot is a small country restaurant located in the small hamlet of Hobart serving up breakfast, lunch, and ice cream, owned and operated by couple Mike and Geri.
This family friendly restaurant is a popular gathering spot in this community. The place looks very nice and was rebuilt and reopened after a fire last year. The atmosphere is very inviting and cozy inside with a counter, open kitchen/​grill area, and booth seating with plenty of classic and vintage signs & antiques decorated on the finished wood walls and beams. Sort of reminds me of a smaller Cracker Barrel.
I stopped here for Saturday breakfast recently after driving through very windy and treacherous wintery like driving conditions with several white outs for almost 2 hours. The place was fairly busy when I arrived here around 11:10AM, as the breakfast rush was winding down. I was greeted by Geri and given a menu and she told me about the breakfast specials offered.* It was already after 11AM though… Mike was doing the cooking in the kitchen.
Initially, I was going to get a coffee and muffin to go and continue on my way to Delhi. However, I decided this was a good time to take a break from the road and enjoy a real meal. It took me a while to decide what I wanted to eat. I started out with some hot coffee ($ 0.90) as I looked over the menu. The coffee was brewed just right.
The breakfast menu offerings include egg dishes, 3 – 4 egg omelets, breakfast sandwiches, pancakes, French toast, bagels, muffins, & breakfast sides. The regular menu offerings include grilled sandwich platters, soups, salads, wings, chicken tenders, fries, sweet potato fries, and homemade desserts including ice cream treats and Geri’s apple strudel. Kids menus for breakfast and lunch are available. The prices are very fair, menu items priced under $ 8. 9 Breakfast Specials are offered Mon-​Sat: 6AM-​11AM ONLY*, and Sun: All Day. No pancakes served after 11AM Mon-​Sat.
I finally decided on the Big Breakfast ($ 5.95): 2 Eggs (Scrambled), Home Fries, Meat (Sausage), and Toast (Wheat). The hot food was served in under 10 minutes. The breakfast was good and the portion was just right. The eggs were fluffy, the homefries were grilled and browned with small green peppers & onions, the wheat toast was buttered, and the sausage patty was grilled brown, a bit dry on the outside. Nonetheless, the breakfast was filling to eat.
The service was pretty decent and I was given a refill on the coffee. The total came out to $ 6.85 plus tax & before tip. The price for this ‘breakfast special #2″ would’ve been $ 5.25 plus tax if I got here before 11AM.*
