    Looks crazy but it's worth it Cheeseburger Plate!
    Joseph H.

    This is a great place for families and kids it's close to the lake we were visiting and the place looked unique so we went to check it out, the locals kept talking about a trashcan plate, so had to try one. There is a bar area with great service and local beers on tap along with other draft beers from other locations. We enjoyed it and family friendly atmosphere.

    Chicken Wings and Onion Rings.
    Cindy Z.

    This chain restaurant in Rochester is quite popular. We made a stop here for a light dinner. I got the 12pcs Chicken Wings and Onion Rings. The wings are good and juicy. They also have a number of sauces to dip with too. I'm not sure why the wings aren't listed on the menu though, but they were at another location so we knew they had them. Everything was solid and good, but the wait for the food took way too long. It took us about 20 minutes for our food and another 5 minutes just for sauces.

    Vanilla almond ice cream cone with extra almonds added... This is the kiddie size
    Kristen H.

    Stopped in for an ice cream at closing time. Ice cream is delicious as always... The kitty cone is pretty small and if you order the vanilla almond you'll maybe get three almonds in it. Definitely add the extra almonds on the top. We heard lots of talking and wondered if it was the TV but went back to investigate and discovered the tap room in the back... Their hours are different than the rest of the restaurant and on Thursday nights they have trivia. All the tables looked full I'm guessing it's a popular event

    $8 beer flights and free popcorn.

    29 crafts beers on tap. $8 for a flight. Free pop corn. Great bartenders and service. Would recommend!

    Stopped in for a burger and fries after a night at Marges Lakeside Inn. You can Google "Bill Grays coupons" and up came a few that you can use to save some dough. Wife and I got the $11.99 2 cheeseburgers and regular fries deal- and we added in onion rings. Order came up pretty quickly- I got the "works" on mine minus the relish. I always get a few dill pickle cups to eat and put on my burger. Can't go wrong with their food- they have "Plate" deals as well. We ate outside on a nice summer night. And if you have a sweet tooth- there is an Abbott's for ice cream after ! They do have a great bar in the back too if you want to spend some drinking time here.

    Garbage Plate with (ultra-Spicy) Meat Gravy.  All versions are only $6.99 every Tuesday.
    Tracey A.

    Though I'd tried a regionally authentic Garbage Plate during last year's visit to upstate New York my friends thought I should try one more, get my fill for 2018. We'd watched the sun set over Lake Ontario from beach chairs at Marge's (across the street) then walked over to Bill Gray's for - there's no other way to put it - junk food. For my last meal before returning to the west coast, Bill Gray's Seabreeze was a puzzling choice. It's basically a big fast food purveyor with young, t-shirt clad workers manning the cash register. Whatever I thought of the food though, there's little denying that I left overly full. On Tuesdays, Bill Gray's Seabreeze discounts their Garbage Plates to a mere $6.99 (from $10.99) and trust when I say you need not spend a penny more. I didn't even need breakfast before leaving the next morning. On an annual basis now I seem to be coming more of an expert on Garbage Plates and in comparing this year's to last (elsewhere, at a seat from an outdoor table overlooking the water) I'll say that Bill Gray's comes in 2nd place. First, there is that awareness that one is in a fast food joint (pro tip: sit outdoors to help scale this hurdle). Second is the fact that I didn't see the outdoor seating until leaving and thus, sat indoors surrounded by tables which were not cleaned or not well cleaned and I couldn't help notice the bugs flying around the catsup dispenser. Bill Gray's could benefit from paying more attention to clean-up. The food itself? Like some sort of advanced algebra equation, the Garbage Plate is comprised of en endless variety of options. One of us ordered his with the extremely spicy meat gravy, fries, a beef patty, and a white veal hot dog. Another opted for the same protein choices sans gravy, but with tater tots nestled beside the macaroni salad. In a nod to my Cali roots I smothered my mac salad, 2 cheeseburger patties, and tater tots with lettuce, tomato, mustard, catsup, and pickles. It "almost" looked like a salad. If what you're seeking is fast food, Bill Gray's Seabreeze seems like an acceptable choice but if you're expecting anything more probably not. Still, there's no denying that "bang for your buck" should you be seeking an authentic Rochester Garbage Plate on a Tuesday.

    Food on the floor

    4 pm on a Friday and it was a disgusting mess. Hard to find a clean table or booth, food all over the floor and on seats. Please hire someone to clean. It's doubtful that we will come back and we have come here for years. Honestly it makes me sad .

    Dirty restaurant with employees who do not handle food safely.
    Kiti S.

    Tonight I saw a staff member wipe her gloved hands on her T-shirt and then her shorts and then put her hands in a container of pickles to give a serving to a customer. Same employee put her gloved hands on the dirty counter while she gabbed with a coworker and went back to the pickles to serve another customer with those dirty gloves on her hands! Why is there no utensil for the pickles? Any thoughts to food safety? So gross! No adults are present and there seems to be no one managing. The restaurant is dirty and out of control. I'm picking up food for my neighbors and I'm seriously glad I'm not eating the food here. This place is disgusting. Got a pic of the girl who clearly is clueless about safe food handling and all of the crap on the floor.

    Saranac Pumpkin Ale-20 ounces! Only $6.00
    Alison B.

    Returned to Bill Grays for a flight of beer and a burger. Tap room was fairly busy but found a seat easily. We ordered the special burger combo-two cheeseburgers with an order of fries ( upgraded to sweet potato waffle fries) for $11.99 with coupon available online. My flight consisted of the Saranac pumpkin ale ( my favorite) , Stoneyard Peach Kolsch, Rorbach blueberry ale and Stoneyard Chocolate Almond Custard Stout. All this yumminess for $8.00! On to the burger-they accommodated my Keto again but serving the burger on lettuce. Everything was delicious and our server/ bartender ( how he managed the whole room and bar by himself with a smile and great service is mind boggling !) was awesome! This is a hidden gem. Why would you sit in the main room when you can watch college foot ball or Cash Cab or enjoy a crackling fire in the Tap Room! Be sure to try it!

For the price, less than impressed. The overly thick patty was just too much. It was dry and just not for me. I would rather have two well-seasoned and juicy thinner patties. The fries and sauce were good. But not $32 worth of good. The cod itself was decent but it came in a sauce that was cold and odd tasting. Ambiance is fine. It was loud and crowded, but clean.
