The best clam strips and seafood platter we have had anywhere! The fish was so fresh, light and flaky. We love the stuffed mushrooms, too, although they need to add a little more butter because they're a bit dry without it. We will definitely return! read more

Love the food here cute little place to come to for dinner nice workers always polite it's worth ur time to come here love the chocolate cake yumm read more

I read the other reviews and thought id give it a try. I sure wish I didnt. I thought I couldnt go wrong with a burger and fries. The burger was still frozen in places and the fries looked like the cook went to take a cigarette brake to long and forgot them. I could have done better going to the grocery store, skipped the frozen food isle, made it myself, sat in a way better atmosephere, and saved a lot of money. I think the other reviewers need to get out of plainfield more and go to a real restaurant. But the service was ok. read more

For about 30 years I have been going to Gus Pub in Plainfield. I went there last Tuesday night and was reminded of why I like the place so much. His pizzas are wonderful. He never skimps on the ingredients. Always fresh and done perfectly. A pizza and a cold beer is just what was needed. Gus also serves a full menu of American and Greek specialties and has a great kids menu. A wonderful family restaurant that has a friendly atmosphere and an attentive wait staff. I highly recommend Gus' Pub! read more

Have eaten here twice now. Once for lunch and then for dinner. Enjoyed my meal both times. Staff is attentive. Prices are reasonable. A solid pick for a nice meal at a casual establishment. read more

Wait staff were excellent. Steak grinder was ok, could have had more meat. The smallest glass of wine I have ever seen. Cole slaw came in tiny container used in chinese resturants for sweet and sour sauce, tiny. Gus is being penny wise and pound foolish! read more

Went to Gus's after hearing so much about this dining establishment. My warning is, if you plan on eating there....don't. The food was greasy and bland. About an hour or so after eating, both my girlfriend and I were terribly ill. And we had completely different meals. read more

I recently went to this establishment to order a spinach calzone w some veggies in it. They tried charging me 17$ and change! I was in shock and thought it was a mistake. The same calzone at weideles pizza is 10$ or under! Gus' place doesn't know what things cost apparently! read more

I grew up in Plainfield so I've had the food here more times than I can count. The pizza here has always been rather sub-par with greasy cheese and unsatisfying toppings. The saving grace, however, has always been the subs (or as the locals call them "grinders"), particularly the sausage variety. Which is something I very much wish I could get in other environs where the sub market tends to be dominated by chains. read more

They have the BEST fish and chips and fried scallops! I live in Monterey, CA and love good fish and chips. (We have friends in Moosup who recommended this place.) It is amazing how a family restaurant with a huge menu can make such good seafood, their fish and chips are the best I've ever eaten...the service is also excellent. read more

Very good antpasto salad, pizza very good and the extra large is exactly as discribed

Ambiance, service, etc, are all just okay. HOWEVER the sauce they use for their pasta and hot grinders is amazing and I can totally overlook how sub par everything else is on the menu because the sauce is great. Its obvious that its either home made or they at least doctor up premade stuff. In North Eastern CT its unheard of to find a red sauce that has flavor beyond "tomato" and of all places, I wouldn't expect to find it here. I can't really speak for much else because almost every time I come here I get a sausage grinder with sauce and cheese and am never disappointed. read more

Most defintly the gem of Plainfield ...hidden but worth checking out ..great place to grab a quick bite @ the bar or to sit down with friends read more

I will say this about Gus pub.. Not chef Ramsey Michelin star quality. If you have been going there for 30 years the food always tastes the same! Consistency is the hallmark of Gus pub! Gus leading the charge on quality control should pat himself on the back for a job well done! read more

I have been living in plainfield for 7 yrs now and Gus's pub is the best food around for your money,the people are great always with a smile and never had great pizza like that anywhere read more

Best pizza around and the grinders are the bomb. Wait staff is always friendly. Gets busy Friday and Saturday nights so get there early.one of my favorite place to eat when Im in the area. read more

Best go to place ever. Friendly, clean, great food, great people. We leave for the winter and first place we go when we get home. You cant find it any better anywhere! Chicken parm can feed 3, pizza great, gyro, grinder, on and on, 5 stars read more

My wife and I had lunch today and loved it.The place is very comfortable and clean.I wish I knew our waitresses name because she was awesome and deserves recognition.We had wings for starters and they were very good and flavorful.I had the baked scrod with mashed potatoes and was very happy with the quality and serving size. My wife had a pepperoni pizza and loved it. The prices are very fair for what you get.I wish this place was closer to home. read more

Plainfield Pizzarama (same place as the Pub) is a Really Great Pizza Place. Let me tell you a little secret about the fries - don't just order fries, order "HOME FRIES" and instead of common frozen potatoes they'll start with a REAL potato. What you'll get are thick slabs fried golden brown. They used to be printed on the menu and they're not anymore but you can still get them if you know about them. If you order by phone and the waitress isn't sure or can't find it, you can tell her it's near the bottom of the choices in the computer. That can speed things up. Here's another secret: If you don't like the answer, the service, or the food you get, ask for Dino. He's nearly always there. Dino will take care of everything. Dino will even create something. For instance, suppose you need a vegan option, ask for Shepard's pie with just mashed potatoes and vegetables. Tell him what your dietary needs are, and don't be surprised if he thinks of something yummy. read more

Alright, let me tell you about Gus's! Plainfield Pizzarama by any other name. When I go back to CT to visit Mom we take her down to Gus's right away. This pizzeria/restaurant has been in business for decades. Let's talk pizza! Man it is hard to beat Gus's pizza - yeah, it's cheese-laden, loaded with meats, fabulous, kinda sweet sauce, fresh veggies and a crust that's delicious but neither thin nor too thick. Old school pizza. They been making it this way since forever. All-around good restaurant, with daily specials, salad selections, huge grinder menu, breakfast, lunch and dinner. A lot of bang for the buck in a pleasant, family-friendly environment with good service. Prepare to wait for a seat or for pizza pickups on Friday and Saturday nights. Guss's is popular in a wide local area! It's always busy. read more

Skip the pizza, order the fish & chips. Best I've ever had, including in Britain. Local hangout so busy on weekends but a great place for lunch as well. read more

After eating here for over 20 years I will no longer frequent this establishment. I am tired of poor service and when I called to speak with the owner about the problems I have been having with the service he had nothing to say. Too bad. I guess I will take my business elsewhere in town. read more

Very disappointed , I have gone to Gus's a few times over the years and the last time I went to pick up my order a grinder, they couldn't find it right away, then Dino found a Grinder that a customer had returned ( which was my order) you know they picked through it, anyways the waitress told him it was a return they didn't want it, he then told me he found my grinder hiding the fact it was a return, I had heard the waitress tell him it was a return but he didn't care ,he told me it was fine and not a return the waitress repeated her story to him, but he bagged it up and sold it to me under protest, needless to say I haven't been back , that not the only story about Gus'es Pub read more

Great food, friendly staff including Gus. We will return with our local friends. A great find.

Everything we got was delicious! We tried 2 orders of the appetizer clam cakes - cooked perfectly and seasoned and salted perfectly also. She got the clam chowder was thick and fresh. For the kids - the boy got the kids meal burger and it was TREMENDOUS. It would have filled me up and I am not a small guy. The girl got the chicken tenders and they were more like cutlets. There were four huge cutlets each the size you would see as a main chicken course at a restaurant. She had one that night and the other 3 we were able to use the next day, EACH for chicken sandwiches. Us - we both got the gyro sandwich. Risky at a place like this, huh? One of the absolute best gyros I have ever had. Each of our meals came with sides of french fries and to say each was a generous portion would be a HUGE understatement. Between the four of us, collectively, we must have had approx two of those frozen bags of french fries that you get in the grocery store. The kids got juice, my wife a beer, and I got a soda. The WHOLE meal (2 appetizers, 2 kids meals, 2 adult entrees/sandwiches, 3 drinks, and 1 beer) came to $35. This place is awesome. OH, and they are SUPER friendly there. read more

Haven't had a bad meal yet. Calzones are great, pizza is solid, grinders are fantastic, and the Turkey dinner..yum! For dessert, grape nut pudding is awesome, but Boston creme pie was a dud. read more

Just ate there and they had the best fried clams I have had in a very long time. My boyfriend had the BBQ spare ribs and the meat fell off the bone. The restaurant was small but the servings were large and the prices were perfect.. I would definitely recommend it. read more

For local and not fancy, great! The staff is wonderful, very sweet and attentive. I wouldn't get fish...it comes in once a week yikes! Pizza, desserts, awesome read more

First timer at Gus's Pub. My fiance and I were out running errands prior to work that day, we hadn't eaten all day, so he suggested to go here. We ordered the fries and a large California pizza. He ordered a coke and I a diet Snapple, which the waitress was super awesome about cause she named all the ones they had and did so in a speed that one could process the information. She put our fries in as an appetizer, so we could start munching. They came out hot, timely and delicious...she cleared our dishes away, set up new dishes, got him a second coke, and out came the pizza. Right away my fiance could smell it was burnt. We inspected it. The underside was burnt on half the pizza. Being that we were hungry, and had a time restraint, I told him not to return it, I would eat the burnt pieces, and he could eat the other half. The waitress came over to ask how the pizza was, and he politely whispered, it's burnt. He showed her, she did say she could smell it, so kindly asked if we would like to send it back, we told her no, we were hungry and had to get to work soon after. She apologized, and offered up a reason, maybe there was a hot spot in the oven, causing the one side to be burnt and not the other. She went off to her duties and assisted other patrons. So we started to split it up and plate or pieces. I ate my first piece and he was about half way threw, with his, and I noticed he had eaten the crust end first, leaving the skinny end on the plate. He was done, I thought he was full, so I was going to eat the rest of his piece so as not to waste. And cause, I'm a glutton, He said "don't eat that, the dough is not cooked, you can get sick from eating raw dough." So we had a large ( which was actually pretty small) pizza that was half burnt, and half doughy...the waitress came back apologized once again, and said she took off the charge of the drinks and the fries, which was nice, BUT- we enjoyed the drinks and fries, it was the pizza we were not happy about. To no fault of the waitress, we didn't bother to tell her the pizza was uncooked on the half that wasn't burnt, we packed up the rest of the pizza, paid the bill and left. Later at work my fiance asked me how I was feeling (as he always does, cause he is so attentive and caring) and I told him I had wicked bad heart burn, and his response, " so it's not just me, " the little bit of pizza that we did eat, was coming back to haunt us...a few tums, and all was well...except the experience, - that left a bad taste in our mouths- literally. We probably won't go back there, nor will we recommend it to others that we care for ,maybe suggest it to someone that we don't like. For now we will stick to what we like best and that is Classic Pizza in Danielson, CT. About 20 minutes up the road-the pizza there is ALWAYS delicious. read more
