The menu at Purtell's Restaurant & Ice Cream Shoppe is filled with classic comfort food that feels both hearty and homey. Breakfast plates come loaded with fluffy pancakes, golden-brown French toast, and eggs cooked just the way you like them, paired with crispy bacon or sausage links. Their omelets are generous in size, stuffed with fresh vegetables, cheese, or ham, making them a satisfying start to the day. Moving into lunch and dinner, the burgers stand out with juicy patties stacked high with toppings, while the sandwiches range from simple grilled cheese to hearty club sandwiches layered with turkey, ham, and bacon. Fried chicken dinners, tender roast beef, and pork chops are staples that deliver that classic Midwest diner feel, served with mashed potatoes and gravy or crispy fries. The fish options, often lightly breaded and golden, are especially comforting. Beyond the savory plates, the star of the shop is undoubtedly the ice cream. From thick milkshakes to banana splits and sundaes topped with whipped cream and cherries, the sweet side of the menu is every bit as inviting. Each dish feels like it’s crafted to remind you of family dinners and simple pleasures.
