Gella's Diner is an absolute gem in Hays…read more From the moment you walk in, the beautiful décor sets the tone--warm, stylish, and way more inviting than you'd ever expect from a brewery‑diner combo. The service matches the atmosphere perfectly: friendly, attentive, and genuinely happy to help you navigate their creative menu. The food here is where things really take off. The steak & blue cheese salad was outstanding--fresh, bold, and packed with flavor. The ahi tuna poke nachos were another knockout, the kind of dish you keep thinking about long after you leave. And if you're a burger person, this place is dangerous in the best way. Their burgers are consistently amazing: juicy, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Of course, you can't come to Gella's without enjoying their great beer, brewed right on site. Every pint feels like it was crafted to pair perfectly with the food. If you're in Hays, Gella's is a must‑visit. Creative dishes, great beer, beautiful space, and service that makes you feel right at home. An easy five stars.

Nbd wasn't stressed at that point because the bartender was super busy. I work in food service I get that.. Then the rest of the food came out and we were never checked on again for the next 20 minutes while we ate. Would have loved to bring up the fact that this chicken wing was completely RAW.. put it out by the card just waiting for the bartender to notice us/the chicken wing and she never did so we just paid and left. Hoping we don't get sick. The rest of the wings were cooked we just so happened to bust into to this one last.. Again I get it if you're absolutely slammed but just felt like we were getting completely ignored for no reason. We were polite so not sure what the deal was.

Salads (dinner and Caesar) were fresh. Called in advance since we were only traveling through - this was very helpful. Made reservations but didn't really need them. Wait staff was very pleasant and helpful. We sat outside which was perfect as it was breezy. Tables were clean, inside looked nice too.

I was charged for mayonnaise by $2 and despite multiple conversations about the baked potato being $3 extra, was charged $5 extra. It ended up being an expensive lunch when it shouldn't have been. I won't return.

Fortunately, there was an open table when we arrived, and we were greeted and seated pretty quickly. It took a few minutes for our server to take our order, but we could tell she was covering most of the tables. Once we ordered, our food arrived promptly. I had a bowl of the tomato basil soup, which is gluten-free and very tasty. My partner had the breakfast plate with bacon, quiche, grapes, and toast, and he enjoyed his meal as well. After we finished eating, we waited a while for our check, but our server was tied up handling to-go orders, so we ended up paying at the bar. Even so, it was still a good experience on what was clearly a short-staffed day for the team.

Salad bar was adequate however the flies around the food really turned me off. For hot food they had fried chicken which was well cooked and crunchy but missing flavor. Sweet chili chicken pieces very tasty a little on the spicy, pasta dish ( did not try) , fried rice and mashed potatoes. Dessert they had a jello dish and grapes in a sauce which were pretty good. Coffee or tea was included with the meal. Went back up to the buffet for chicken and they were out. I asked the waitress and told me it will be coming out in about 10 minutes.

When we walked in, we were greeted right away and allowed to sit wherever we would like. The booths were super comfortable and the tables looked brand new. They only had a couple of waitresses waiting a packed house, but they still managed to get us drinks right away and the food wasn't far behind that. We were both impressed with our omelets. We tried the Omni and the Western, both were served with toast and hash browns. It was the exact, hearty start to our day that we were looking for.

But all the chairs were in stacks against the wall and we had to get our own chairs and put them next to the table. The specials list was old and torn. The server who helped us seemed shocked that we were there at all... Had almost no customer service skills. The pizza tasted like it came from an easy bake oven cooked by a lightbulb. Cracker-like crust that was not as good as something you'd get at a Casey's. Plastic plates and styrofoam cups for our drinks. Outdoor seating is a picnic table in the parking lot of a busy street. This is not a place to go if you want good ambience, good pizza, or good service.

I was told, "Oh, it should be out in just a few minutes." Another 10 minutes passed before my pizza finally came out. When it did, the quality was absolutely terrible. The pizza looked and tasted like something you'd expect from a concession stand, not a sit-down pizza place. Poor preparation, low quality, and clearly rushed despite the long wait. If you're going to make customers wait nearly an hour, the food should at least be worth it. Unfortunately, this experience was disappointing from start to finish, both in service and food quality.
