Andi (don't know if I spelled that right) was super friendly and the food awesome. I saw a review…read moreabout the biscuits and gravy, I have to disagree. My 92 y/o dad and I came to Kansas for the Ness City Old Settlers' parade from California. He eats biscuits n gravy for breakfast everywhere we go (if they have it) so he considers himself a connoisseur of a sort. The biscuits were fluffy and did have a crunch on the bottom, and the gravy was thhiiiccccc but he gave his breakfast 2 thumbs up. I had eggs, bacon, yummy hash browns, crispy on the outside soft on the inside, and wonderful sourdough bread with homemade strawberry jam. I had to take some with me, there was so much. And Andi said 'sorry' for too much bacon !!!!! lol If we are ever this way again we will be stopping for a meal. Andi was super friendly and I didn't have a problem with the service, she was the only person in the shop. The ambiance was basically a small-town eatery, nothing fancy, but there was nothing to look down at.

One thing that was a little disappointing but not a deal breaker was the side salad. Too much cheese and not enough of a variety of veggies. I would like to see some more ingredients besides the cheese, lettuce, and tomatoes. But as I said the rest of the meal made up for it with all fresh homemade entrees/sides. Worth the stop!!! Chicken melted in my mouth!

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.

It's very charming and very tasty as well. I had the tomato soup with grilled cheese on sourdough bread and my husband had a hot ham and cheese. We also had some very tasty honey cookies and very pleased with our meal. Hit the spot for what we were in the mood for. Highly recommend and we will stop by here again when we are traveling this direction.

We ordered using the DQ app which has some glitches, but the staff worked around it. Very friendly staff. Very friendly locals (including the lady that owns the place). Food was hot and fresh. Due to the popularity of the place and how busy they were, the food came out a little slow, but that's to be expected. The place just has that "middle America, home town feel" to it. Hope it stays that way when the new owners take over. Would stop by again if we're ever passing through Kansas again!
