Gels is a regular stop for us. We are locals so it's community. It's sitting at home. Food is…read morealways fresh, fries are the best on the planet, I'm a fries snob. They say it's because Gel changes the oil every week. Hash is homemade, A+, crepes, excellent. Huge order. Great prices. Also they support local community and have meals on the back of the menu in memory of local children with memorial funds. A portion of my dinner check goes their family fund. Everyone's always happy there. A true town staple.

Gel's is a great little neighborhood restaurant. They are located at the end of a strip mall, right…read morenear the road at the 'entrance/exit'. Parking is shared with several other businesses. There is no 'handicapped parking' specifically for Gel's due to the way the parking lot is designed. There is a small vestibule between the outside and the inside where you will find a community food pantry. Take something if you need it, or leave something for your neighbors. This is such a lovely offering and very much in line with Gel's local community mind set. The doors into the vestibule are heavy glass and metal. Seat yourself in one of the booths. When they remodeled they added a small bar to the back area if you prefer counter seating. They offer a variety of mimosa flavors at breakfast and beer and wine at lunch. Although I suppose if you want a beer with your eggs, have at it. The front and side walls have large windows making the interior bright. They offer so many specials. Check out all the white boards on the back wall above the counter seating. These are in addition to their standard menu. Breakfast items include egg based meals (eggs & bacon & toast for ex.), pancakes, hash and lots of al la carte sides. Coffee is good and comes with free refills. The lunch menu includes sandwiches, salads, soups, wraps and they have a kids menu too. They also offer Kino if you like. They sell Gel's merch (holiday gifts?) and decorate for all the holidays.

Toast and Tap is a solid breakfast spot. I had the bagel breakfast sandwich, and it was delicious…read moreand a big portion. They accommodated my picky requests with a big smile. The tea and iced coffee were both tasty, and there is plenty of parking out front. The staff was friendly and fun to be around. It feels like the kind of place where regulars are remembered and treated like family. I would def go again. It was self seating and picked a nice spot for sure. Good food, fair value, and a great overall spot. Great job team. **4.5/5, recommended**

I was hoping to stop by this place to grab some coffee and breakfast and get some work done…read more However, the man (seemingly the owner) working at the counter made me so uncomfortable I left once I got my coffee and muffin which also took around 25 minutes to receive. The man working was pretty rude, mocked me saying "hi" for no reason, and licked his fingers before opening the bag to put my muffin in. Maybe it was an off day but still isn't really a good excuse to act so strangely to a customer and have bad hygiene practices in the food industry.

In town for work and was looking for a place to grab a bite after work. I found The Shanty on Yelp…read more The moment I opened the door I was greeted, by the owner, with the most upbeat personality and smile! She showed me to my table, brought a carafe of water, and welcomed me in. I was quickly welcomed by Sergio, my server, who shared the special and the soup of the day. Once I ordered my soda I took in the ambiance of the bar, new lights, and the rest of the restaurant. It's not a large building but they make every inch count. Now, the reason you're reading this review- THE FOOD. I ordered the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich with a Caesar Salad. The chicken (photo below) was perfectly cooked, topped with hot honey, slaw, pickles, and ranch then placed on a soft brioche bun. The meal was reasonably priced as well at $33 which included tip. I will absolutely be back to the Shanty next time I'm in town.

The restaurant wasn't too busy, but there was a steady crowd. People were either dining in or picking up to-go orders. They offer indoor and outdoor seating, so there are plenty of areas to dine. The bartender was friendly and helpful. I decided to go with the seared salmon, Brussels sprouts, and corn risotto. Thankfully, it wasn't much of a wait because I was hungry. My food came out fresh and hot. Everything was really delicious. My only complaint was there were a few flies swarming around me, which made my dining experience less enjoyable. I spent most of my time trying to swat them away. The bartender even moved me to another spot, but they still followed me. While I really enjoyed my food and the service, it might be a good idea for them to invest in small table fans to keep the flies away. Otherwise, my food was tasty, and the service was great!
