Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
The Shack Tipton offers a "beautiful decor" in a unique setting and an impressive menu with standout dishes like the "double smash burger" and prime rib, which are "delish." The service is generally "on the spot," though some visits note room for improvement. The salad bar is popular, and music bingo adds fun.

    First visit and it won't be our last. The service was excellent considering one bartender was covering the entire room for both food and drinks. We were there during the music bingo and it was really fun. The food was great with the only negative comment was three of us had the meatloaf. It was very tasty but quite salty. Other than that, a great experience!

    Decent, sit-down restaurant in Tipton. IN. Dining room is a little noisy. Many locals, typical pub-grub fair, with a few upscale specials and entree's. Nice salad bar, lunch and dinner only, with a large pizza collection, as well as the usual sandwiches. Good selection of side order vegetables to accompany dinner entree's.

    Food was awesome! Thank you for bringing back the buffet on Friday nights. One thing I would suggest is check with your guest to make sure you know where they would like to be seated. Other than that it was great and will definitely be back!

    Overall, our experience was fine. Our main issue was with our service. Our server was very nice, but seemed forgetful. She brought our drinks out, but forgot straws. She forgot my husband’s drink. Some of our food was brought out much sooner than the rest. Our appetizer didn’t arrive until after the first plates were set down. She took quite some time to come get our check. Again, she was very nice and very apologetic. Not quite sure what was going on or how much of it was in her control, but we did feel that the timeliness could have been better.

    Took 10 minutes after we were seated for a server to come to our table for drink order. Pizza buffet was overpriced for the quality and selection. Salad buffet kind of pricey for salad only but the ingredients were very fresh.

    I love the salad bar until I seen the girl cleaning it putting food back into the containers that people had dropped along the side of the bar. I went to front desk and talked to a manager about what I just saw. He immediately talked to the girl. But none of the containers were removed from the bar. Disappointing.
