Wampach’s Restaurant: A haven for casseroles, waitresses who call you ‘honey’

Wampach’s Restaurant in downtown Shakopee is retro, but in the truest and not the trendiest sense of the word.

Portions are generous; the selections gloriously basic and sentimental fare – from turkey wild rice casserole to a side of green Jell-O with whipped topping, all for little more than $5.

Tiny multi-colored tiles dot the exterior of a building that has changed little since Jerry Wampach flung open the doors in 1954.

Red neon signs invite all to “COME AS YOU ARE.”
