Fry Times for this week!

For the rest of this week, we'll be cooking up our chips on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday (October 2-4) from 9am to 2pm. There will be no cooking on Saturday, October 5.

As always, we're open to the public Monday through Saturday from 9am to 5pm.

Do you think the show is over once we stop making chips for the day? Hardly! Our thorough clean-up process at the end of every cooking shift is a massive undertaking. It's something to see! We disassemble portions of our production line, remove the oil from our kettles, and get to work washing every nook and cranny. Sometimes there's so much high-pressure water that the kitchen seems foggy! If you've ever wondered how our 16-year-old factory's equipment still looks brand sparkling new, come visit later in the day. We'll be proud to show you how carefully we take care of it!
