Featured Center City Business: Full Potatoes

Downtown Millville actually has some very good options when it comes to eating & Full Potatoes is certainly a good one. Congrats to Marcedes & Chucky.

Chucky Ward spent years in the weeds of the food industry, dreaming of the day he could call the shots. One day, faced with the unhappy chore of looking for a new job, something deep and mysterious spoke in his soul. It said potatoes.

How about making potatoes the backbone of an entire restaurant menu, he thought. Ward was convinced it would work, though others were skeptical.

His wife Marcedes McFarland saw the merit and came on board immediately. They began serving potato-based dishes from their home in Glassboro, later moving to Bridgeton. In November 2023, they opened Full Potatoes in Millville, with McFarland as the owner and Ward as the head chef.

They say they serve the only full menu of loaded baked potatoes in all of New Jersey.

The menu highlights the potato’s versatility, with options such as Bacon Cheeseburger, Broccoli and Cheddar, Chicken Bacon Alfredo, Ragin’ Cajun Shrimp and Stir Fry.

The restaurant also offers a party space and operates as BYOB, adding to its appeal as a gathering spot.

Rounding out the menu are the desserts, which McFarland makes by hand, including sweet potato cheesecake and a variety of delicious confections. They are open Tuesday through Thursday 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., Friday and Saturday noon to 8:30 p.m.

“The people that support us are everyday people,” McFarland says. “That is a blessing. And if the conversation is about potatoes? I could talk all day."

Featured Center City Business: Quinn Broadcasting

QUINN BROADCASTING. Everyone knows Jim Quinn is Quinn Broadcasting. He has been a staple in Millville for many years.

Jim Quinn will tell you: television can take you places you never dreamed of.

Quinn came to Millville many decades ago as a teacher, got almost by accident into television and now is president of Quinn Broadcasting, a family-owned and operated media production and broadcasting company, located at 415 N High St.

Along the way he became a sportscaster, a newsman, an interview host, a radio station owner, a county freeholder, and mayor of Millville--35 years as an elected official. He’s worn many hats and managed many claims upon his time. But among the most persistent has always been television, like the fixed foot of his careers.

“I love what I am doing,” Quinn says. “This is my high. I love people and being able to sit and interview them.”

Quinn Broadcasting calls itself a community-first driven company, with a desire to provide critical communications of local interest.

Which means on Quinn’s channels—Comcast Channel 22 in South Jersey, with live content also available on their YouTube channel (QBCTV) and Facebook page—you are very likely to find local high school sports, government meetings, and community events.

The company also works with local businesses to produce television advertising and podcasts, manage brands and handle public relations.

You are also likely to find Quinn himself hosting his Around South Jersey show, with guests like senators and commissioners and celebrities. Elvis Presley’s son once appeared on the show.

“We’re a good information source for people,” Quinn said, “though you never know where you’ll land next, which is why I like it. It’s been a lot of fun.”
