Shorty's in Falls City/Poth

[44INAROW]

We're thinking about making a run to Shorty's this weekend for supper - anyone know what their hours are on Saturdays? Luvhoops - how far away are you from there?

[Blastoderm55]

Is it as good as the Shorty's in Beeville? The one here is a magnificent gallery of death. The greater is a stuffed kangaroo with a hat and apron, and their are countless deer mounted everywhere, along with a tiger and some other interesting beasts.

Hah, hell no! :p I just have difficulty eating my steak with all those eyes looking at me.

This is one of the guys who looks at me and taunts me while dining.

Apparently he, just like Jessican Simpson, thought my buffalo wings came from real buffalos. :p

What do they serve there? Falls City/Poth isn't that far of a drive to meet up with you guys. I love inviting myself places. :p

to be honest, I don't know.. There is a "banquet room" that we've never been in, it might be in there.... There are all kinds of animal heads on the walls.... funny pictures etc...........

[Blastoderm55]

:p

The Saddle Blanket is their famous double-portion Chicken Fried Steak. Its my favorite item on the menu, at the Beeville location at least.

lol.. oops - that's my fault for not ever looking at the menu - I always just order the Rib-eye - medium rare with a baked potatoe- don't even open the menu......... I always hope they have steamed cabbage and mustard greens :) Does the Beeville location that those crunchy chinese noodles in the salad?

[Phil C]

I have eaten there several times in the past. Good eating there.

[Blastoderm55]

We don't have noodles in our salad. :(

We've dined in all the areas of the restaurant.

Beeville's Shorty's good too. They have cabbage:)

How far of a drive is that for you 44???

[luvhoops34]

Lorey,

Sorry but I have been gone all day. Just got in. I love Shorty's in Falls City. It's been a long while since I've eaten there. Cotton runs the one in Falls City and Bryan and his wife have the Shorty's in Pleasanton.

I'll check on their hours for you and pm you with them.
:D

Thanks :) maybe a mini meet and greet at Shorty's on Saturday?

True Shorty's loyalists know that it's in Hobson...

and that it's better than the one in Beeville simply because it's the original.

And yes, the guy behind the register chewing on the cigar is the owner, Shorty Beam.

And yes, he's come over and talked to our family before when we were eating there - that's how you know you go too much. LOL

The one in Pleasanton is still open? Last time I went through there it was closed...might have been renovating though. We don't go that way too often though, primarily because we stop off at Shorty's every time we go up that way.

You know what, they sure could be closed. I haven't been home in ages. Things change.....:(

I'm about 25 miles from Pleasanton and 17 miles from the Shorty's in Falls City.

I'll post on Friday if we do in fact decide to go this weekend...... all depends on the weather etc........ but if we don't go this weekend, we will be going in the near future..... It would be fun to have a get-together :cool:

I've lived in the immediate area for over twenty years and unless they moved it, Shorty's is in Falls City. Granted it's a little south of town, but it has a Falls City address and a Falls City phone number.:D Hell, come to think of it, the only thing in Hobson is St. Boniface and Bordovsky's.

That's because Hobson has a Falls City address and a Falls City phone number :D

(not really, but still)

Shorty's is closer to Hobson than to Falls City, or at the very least, directly between them

What do they need the post office for? LOL

And Karnes City is much further away than Falls City :D

I'd love to go up there for a little M&G but, alas, I cannot make it. I will be in the Valley.

Don't ask me why they have a post office...LOL Hobson has KC's phone exchange. But prolly bc it's so small. Also, the kids that live in Hobson go to FC schools. :D

I wish I was gonna be in the Valley...:(
