What People Say
Most Liked
The heart and soul of Potato Heads is undoubtedly the famous poutine. Diners rave about the massive portions, and one customer even claimed the HeartStopper poutine—two servings of gravy and three servings of cheese—is perfectly satisfying. The fries get high marks for their crunchy exterior and fluffy interior, making them the perfect vehicle for that savory gravy and fresh cheese curds.
Friendly service also garners rave reviews; the owner is known for going the extra mile to ensure a pleasant experience. Customers appreciate the warm atmosphere, the ability to take food to go, and the truck’s convenient location near local attractions, making it an excellent stop for anyone. Plus, the hot dogs and fish and chips frequently steal the spotlight, proving there’s something for everyone!
Most Disliked
While Potato Heads gets high marks for its offerings, there are a few minor criticisms. Some diners report that the outdoor seating can be weather-dependent, making the dining experience less pleasant on rainy days. This means if you prefer to eat on-site, you should check the forecast before heading over.
Another point of feedback is about waiting times during peak hours. The truck's popularity can lead to longer lines, especially on weekends when tourist traffic swells. However, for the delicious poutine served here, many agree that the wait is worth it!

Was craving a fry truck, so I came here from Welland and it was so worth it! The elder man infront of my boyfriend and I told us this truck is the best, he’s been going there for 8 years. He was not wrong, we got the same thing as him. A giant ass poutine called the HeartStopper lolll! Large poutine, 2x gravy 3x cheese, $17. This pic is what we got and it’s legit massive hahaa. We also got a hotdog, just a few bucks, was also amazing and that’s coming from someone who isn’t a hotdog fan😆 100% 1000/10 recommend☺️

This poutine is by far the best one i have tried here in Niagara Falls! The fries are crunchy on outside and soft on the inside! The gravy is flavorful and the cheese curds compliments well with the gravy! Overall it is sooo damn good! I should have ordered the large one! Id definitely buy again. 🤘🏻🥰 And the guy who served me was nice too! I think he’s the owner.

If you’re in Niagara Falls and want to get something amazing to take back to your room, this is definitely it. Awesome little truck in the shopping center. Great, friendly customer service and EXCELLENT poutine. Atmosphere to actually dine here is definitely weather based. I’m a Virginian from the states, so idk if that influences your weight on my review. I can usually only get poutine in places like Maine and Wisconsin and always enjoy it, even if it isn’t the best. But the poutine here 🧑🍳💋 👏 Picture is the regular poutine with nothing extra. Size large.

I was craving a hot dog after doing some groceries and thought of giving this place a try, it was worth it, the hot dog wasn’t expensive and the guy who was there was very kind, it started raining while I was waiting for the food so he was about to go out to bring the hotdog to my car, he already had his umbrella on his hands, that gesture was really nice.

Make sure you leave the hustle and bustle of Niagra Falls and head to the Potato Head. The best Poutine I have ever had. I got the original with extra cheese curd and I couldn’t be happier. Crunchy fresh Fries, hearty flavorful gravy and rich creamy cheese curds. My Heart <3
