Cup of gumbo lacking Cajun spices and heat. It's good enough chicken rice soup I guess.
Rok J.

Bottom Line: Nice staff & clean pleasant premises, but food was only so-so in diminutive portions. Top Line: Iced tea that was quickly delivered to table was of the ordinary powdered Lipton version, albeit served in a prettier than usual glass. Chicken gumbo was a cup of decent chicken rice soup. But I'd be hard pressed to call it gumbo. It lacked any spicing that spoke Cajun dialect or infused the broth with any breath of heat. On the good side, there were plenty of little chunks of chicken breast in the soup, along with the veg & rice compadres. Cajun chicken was likewise culinarily defused, perhaps an accomodationary gringofication to the notoriously genteel Midwestern palates. Again, there was little indication that your culinary journey had taken you anywhere south of about Des Moines, Iowa. The supplied tiny cup of BBQ sauce helped the pale flavor profile immensely. The sandwich's tiny portion size barely rose to more than a slightly oversize slider. Demerit also awarded for dressing the sandwich with nothing more than a spattering of shredded lettuce. Good news being that the brioche bun was nicely butter toasted from the kitchen. But it speaks volumes when the bread is the star component of a sandwich. Price of admission for the undersized meal was a couple bucks shy of a twenty after tax. Which puts a strain on the value ratio calculation. Decor was pleasant and waitress was efficient and sweet in the midst of a hectic lunch crunch. Seating was full when I arrived and was still pretty packed when lunch time faded. Obviously a popular place.

Breakfast was so good, I went back the next day for lunch. Ganley will now be a staple when I am in the area!

This is a delicious place to get breakfast all day. The location is great - I really like the outdoor seating. The service is kind of slow but they make up for it with the delicious food. The eggs are thick and fluffy, the pancakes are also fluffy and crispy (I like my pancakes more on the burnt side and they do that here!). All around you can't go wrong with any of the breakfast on the menu!

Stopped in Nisswa for some breakfast before heading back from an amazing week on Gull lake. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The location is perfect. The addition of outside seating is a great option for warm summer days. We had a variety of breakfast options ( French toast, omelets, scrambled eggs) all were fantastic as were the hash-browns. Even though they were very busy, they kept the coffee cups full of hot coffee and kept checking to see if we needed anything else. Overall a great breakfast stop. Looking over the menu it appears a great place to stop for any meal when in Nisswa or even just passing through.

Can't beat that breakfast!

See all
