Shorty's Diner - Hailey

I've been coming to Hailey Idaho for Trailing of the Sheep the last 11 years and Shorty's is always a morning tradition for my stays. Rock solid diner food, quick tasty and fair price for what you get. Pure Americana!

Great food and service. Portions are large and the restaurant is clean.

Not terribly busy on a weekday morning. Most occupied tables had retirees. I was waited on promptly, and the “shorty’s skillet” was worth the price. The green chilies were fresh, perhaps a little more of them would be good but more chilies would always be welcome. In New Mexico the chilies are on top of the eggs. In Idaho they’re buried underneath with the potatoes. Prices have gone up at shorty’s ~15% like most things since the “inflation reduction act” took effect.

The food was just OK, but honestly I give them 5 stars because the staff were so nice even though the place was Extremely crowded. On that note, this place can be very crowded so be prepared for a wait.

Best customer service we’ve had in long time. We loved that they all spoke and understood Spanish. Great food! Definitely return again, worth the drive from Melba, Idaho. The juke box was such a cute thing to have on the table. Oldies music while we enjoyed our meals.
