We stopped in to the downtown location for a drink & ended up staying for dinner. We really enjoyed the beer. We got a couple pizzas, the white with mushrooms & truffle & a pepperoni; they are both delicious! They have a great pizza oven. Service was friendly & good but pretty deserted in this big room on a Wednesday night.

Pizza was good, super cheesy and reasonable priced. it was pretty empty inside so our food was out quick, would probably come back and try their wings next time

Hot Head Pizza and Grit and Spice beer. Jess is a terrific server, too!

Black Friday pizza and beer at Deliverance Pub in Hays, KS. Pizza has hot sausage, green chilis, hot oil, and hot honey on chewy crust from a serious wood fired pizza oven. Beer is a local brew called Grit and Spice. Think of a hint of jalapeño in a really cold pale ale beer. Yum. The location is a little out of the way, and the decor is pretty concrete and gray, but the food and the service are stellar. Hays, KS - you have won our hearts!

SO GOOD!!! On a trip to Colorado and this was a great stop for lunch very filling! I got the California Club and upgraded my fries to queso fries. It was so good I cleaned my plate! The only thing I would change is take the cheese off of the club, but that's only because I don't like cheese on my sandwiches(I forgot when I was ordering). We had great service and everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful. Booths and chairs are available. Plenty of TVs if you're coming to watch a game and some really modern artwork and murals on the walls. Overall a super cool place! The menu is digital above the register, but very easy to read. You order first at the register and then sit down.

Stopped in on my way home to Denver after a decent drive from St. Louis. I needed some liquid refreshment from the drive. This place has an excellent beer menu and a really good food menu. The beer tenders are excellent and can answer questions you have about what you're about to drink. The burgers here are good. Next time I'm driving through I might stop and get one of their other food options.

Pizza is delicious, and the tots are crunchy on the outside and soft and warm on the inside. Wonderful selection of beer!

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.

Excellent service and every bite of our meal was delicious from house salad side with Dorothy Lynch…read moredressing (we don't have that back home in Indiana) to chicken fried chicken and green beans to white chocolate cheesecake. My wife said her burger was the best she ever had.

Super friendly staff, fast and thoughtful service, and the pizza was great! I even got a phone call…read moreto let me know our pizza was ready for pick up.

Colby, Kansas, March 2026…read more This restaurant is downtown Colby and has street parking that is all free. Inside has very few tables. In the center they have a long table with iced tea, water, plates, silverware, and condiments. You kind of help and serve yourself. There is no wait staff. When you want to order you go to the bar to get your drinks and place your food order. The menu consists of Salad, a few appetizers and pizza and burgers. This place is quite busy for a Thursday night at 7 PM. I ordered boneless wings and cheese bread. My husband ordered a Hawaiian pizza. He had a Coke which comes with free refills and I ordered a dark Porter draft called Frankie. Very light in taste. Undertones of vanilla and sweetness. It was not very cold. So I had to add ice. I did try the pomegranate wheat beer and that was bitter cold. Just the way it should be. The food came quickly. I had eight large boneless chicken wings. I went with barbecue flavor and it was accompanied with large cup of blue cheese. The breading on the chicken was very good. The chicken, however, was extremely tough. Very hard to chew. The small pizza is extremely small. I've seen kids pizzas larger than this. My cheesy bread was not bread at all. It was a small cheese pizza with the sauce served in a cup in the middle of the pizza. The flavor was horrible. It was tough and chewy. The crust was so hard. It really was difficult to eat. There are two dogs, both are labradors. The yellow one is Barley and she is so extremely friendly. The black one is kind, but not ad outgoing. Her name is Maize. I was so excited about coming here. Such great reviews. I hate to be the sour one, but the food here that I tried was not good at all. The beer had good flavor and would have been perfect, if it had been served cold. My suggestion would be for staff to turn the water and tea station to the other side so that when the line at the bar gets long to order, you don't have to apologize for trying to get your drink. Such a simple fix would make a big difference. I also think if they put the T station and condiment station in a different location, they could probably get at least five more tables in the restaurant. As busy as it became, that might be beneficial. I give this three stars.
