Loaded Baked Potatoes in Downtown Houston

Downtown Houston has plenty of options for lunch, but when you’re looking for something fast, filling, and made with care, our loaded baked potatoes at Cassidy’s Mesquite Kitchen hit the spot. We’re located right in the heart of downtown, serving hot, mesquite-grilled meals and fully loaded baked potatoes that don’t get treated like a side dish — they’re the main event.

We Serve Three Kinds of Loaded Baked Potatoes

We keep it simple and focused. Instead of overwhelming the menu with dozens of options, we offer three baked potato choices that consistently deliver on flavor and portion. Here’s what you’ll find:

Potato Option Toppings Price
Loaded Baked Potato Melted cheese, sour cream, chives, and butter $8.25
Chopped BBQ Baked Potato House-chopped mesquite BBQ, cheese, sour cream, butter, chives $10.95
Chicken Topped Potato Mesquite-grilled chicken, cheese, sour cream, butter, chives $10.50

Each one starts with a jumbo Idaho potato baked fresh throughout the day. The skin is crisp and lightly salted, the inside is fluffy, and the toppings are layered while the potato is piping hot.


What Sets Our Potatoes Apart

Plenty of restaurants serve baked potatoes. Most treat them as an afterthought.

We treat ours as full meals. Here’s what makes them stand out:

  • We use real proteins, grilled fresh in-house — not pre-packaged or reheated.
  • Portions are generous, built for a full lunch without needing extra sides.
  • Our mesquite grill adds a distinct flavor, especially in the Chopped BBQ and Chicken Topped versions.

It’s a straight-forward formula, but it works because we stick to doing it right.


Lunch in Downtown Houston? We’re Built for It

Our location at 930 Main St, Ste T230 places us inside the tunnel level of the McKinney Place Garage. If you work in one of the nearby buildings or ride the METRO Rail, we’re right in your path.

Most of our guests come from nearby offices during the weekday lunch rush, and baked potatoes are a quick option that’s easy to grab and take back to the desk — no mess, no extras needed.

You can also order online for pickup, so it’s ready by the time you arrive.


More Ways to Order Our Potatoes

In addition to walk-ins and direct pickups, we’re also on all major delivery platforms. If you’re in or around Downtown Houston, you can order any of our baked potatoes through:

Choose pickup, avoid the line, and have your lunch waiting for you.


Need to Cater Potatoes for a Group?

For teams or meetings downtown, we offer catering options through EZ Cater. You can set up a hot baked potato bar with all the essentials:

  • Bulk baked potatoes
  • Mesquite grilled chicken or chopped BBQ
  • Cheese, sour cream, chives, butter
  • Plates, utensils, napkins

We help you streamline lunch for groups without losing flavor or quality. Perfect for in-office lunches, conferences, or working sessions where people want a real meal, fast.


Pair It With Something Else? We’ve Got Options

While our baked potatoes are a meal on their own, some customers like to round out lunch with a drink or an extra side. From our full menu, you can add:

  • Fountain drinks
  • Chips or fries
  • Mesquite cheeseburgers
  • Sandwiches like our BBQ chicken or pulled pork
  • Side salads

Some guests even split a baked potato and sandwich with a coworker for a custom combo meal.


Built Around the Lunch Crowd

When we set up shop in the Downtown Houston tunnels, we knew we had to serve food that met a few clear needs:

  • Fast prep — Nobody wants to wait 20 minutes for food on a 45-minute break
  • Filling food — Salads and snack boxes only get you halfway through the day
  • Good value — You shouldn’t have to pay $16 for a simple lunch

That’s why we’ve kept our baked potatoes front and center. You’re in and out fast, you leave full, and you get something hot, made from scratch.


Here’s What Guests Are Saying

We’ve heard from our regulars, and the feedback is consistent:

  • “That BBQ potato is the reason I come back every Friday.”
  • “Way better than what I used to get from other downtown spots.”
  • “I usually get the chicken potato and a drink — perfect amount for a busy day.”

Most of our baked potato customers are repeat customers. That tells us the formula works.


How to Get Yours

You can stop by during our regular lunch hours, or place a pickup order through our online ordering page.

If you’re nearby, just follow the signs to the tunnel level at Main and McKinney. If you’re ordering for later, use your preferred app or reach out through EZ Cater for group orders.
