Welcome, to a new review, on a new Saturday! This time, I traveled down to Lancaster, about a 30 minute drive away from Columbus, and went to an old standby cafe, to review for the first time. This is Deb’s Corner Cafe, a diner in the central residential streets of Lancaster, and in past experiences has treated me very well. This is my official review of their fries.

Address: 537 N Broad St, Lancaster, OH 43130

Cut: Straight cut (hand-cut style)

Thickness: 5/10.

Crispiness: 3.5/10.

Salt/Seasoning: None.

Price: $2.29/serving (two servings pictured).

These fries are a hand cut variety, straight cut, Average thickness, and light crispiness. The defining characteristic is the greasiness. The greasiness is visible even through the photos. This is a recurring issue with the cut, for some reason the grease from frying really likes to stick to, and absorb into, fries of this type. The texture of the interior is slightly rubbery, doesn’t quite have the fluffiness that would generally be considered ideal. But the fries do have a very good taste profile, and were very fresh and quite warm on serving. Serving size is definitely above average, and the entire menu that I ordered was very big serving sizes for the price. This is definitely a place that will give you a large and hearty meal. Overall, these weren’t the best fries that I’ve ever had, but I would still recommend this place if you’re in the Lancaster area.

P.S: As noted, I’ve had these fries multiple times before, and each time before the fries were a good amount better in preparation and taste/freshness. I have pretty good reason to believe that the actual quality is somewhat better than noted in this review. If I go back, there will be an addendum to this review, if something notable changes.
