Fried potatoes with onion, green pepper, cheese, sausage gravy and eggs on top (over-easy for me). See pic on this review. Coffee was fine. The well-lit, tight seating, and a fantastic view.

My Mom and I are visiting family in Celina and decided to try The Bay for breakfast. We got there…read morearound 8am on Sunday morning so the place wasn't super busy. We were seated right away and ordered some coffee. The coffee was good but on the strong side. I ordered the Western Omelette and my Mom got The Goat omelette. We split an order of the 1/2 Biscuits and Gravy. Everything was delicious! All the ingredients were super fresh and they were not stingy with the cheese. I will say that it took 20ish minutes for our food to come out, but you could tell it was freshly made to order. The food was piping hot! Overall, The Bay is a nice, casual place with great food and a nice view of the lake. 5/5 would recommend! We'll be back the next time we are in Celina.

There's a…read morediner menu letter board up on the wall, yellow with age, announcing the flavors of milkshakes and ice cream. It's from the 60s and probably hasn't changed since they put it up 65 years ago. There's a whiteboard on the back wall with the special for the day written out. Bacon egg and cheese omelette or a sausage egg and cheese sandwich on toast. Five dollars. The kind of place with a few locals sitting at a booth having their morning coffee, one of the waitresses offering Jim the last donut because they know he will want it. He accepts it. This is, in my mind, a classic American small town diner. The kind of place I grew up, eating in my hometown of 500 people. It's not high cuisine, there's nothing fancy about the food although I did come across a few things I had never seen before on the menu. Fried mush. Meat grits specials, like the scuttle butt and the chili Bob. An age old, but perfected recipe of eggs, meat, cheese, and a starch either potatoes ( homefries) or toast. The coffee is weak and not much flavor to it but, to be honest, it's exactly what you would expect in a place like this and there's something comforting about that. Honest, simple food made day and a day out, catering to the local crowd and a few roadway, travelers like myself who happen to come across it. There's a certain charm and depth to places like this that have been lived in day and day out by the same people for decades. For those like up rounded, there's the nostalgia and connection to the many other people having the same experience day after day in communities across the United States. Forgive me if I wax nostalgia can get a little sentimental here, but this morning's dining experience definitely elicited that for me. I hope you can find your own version of this sometime today or in the near future.

There were eight of us at the party today, with people scattered throughout the main dining room, the bar, and the back dining room. Sadly, there was only one wait staff for everybody, so she ran to keep up. Everybody enjoyed what they ordered. It was freshly prepared and had great flavoring. Prices are fair, and no surcharge was added for the party of eight. The atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable. It was quiet, and because of the ambient noise, we were able to have conversations without yelling at one another.

The only valid gripe about this restaurant I read concerned its ambience being a rather dark restaurant. I can certainly acknowledge that, still its is a large one with plenty of room. They also have an area set aside for parties and events. Service was excellent. Our waitress was courteous, the food came out quick. My mother got some shrimp scampi, baked apples and mashed potatoes she absolutely loved to the point she immediately told me she wanted to return to this restaurant in the future. My brother ordered a farmhand burger, and I got a rack of the baby back ribs. These meals were delicious, hearty, and quite satisfying. One thing we all regret is that we did not take a fresh baked pie home, next time we will. I loved how on the way out you can grab a lollipop, the kid in me loved the idea. Great place! I will return!

We'd considered using the drive thru, but decided to go inside to eat. And, once inside, we found the place to be clean, the employees very friendly, the service very good, and the food great. The only very, very, very slight downside is that we're accustomed to home-made grilled cheese sandwiches made with several slices of different types of cheese - what we refer to as "adult" grilled cheese. And her sandwich, while grilled to perfection, was made with what we guessed was a slice of Kraft American cheese. Bottom line? With the worst part of our experience being having a perfectly grilled sandwich made with American cheese instead of several slices of different cheeses, I'm very comfortable giving these folks a 5 star review and suggesting that folks eat here instead of at some big chain restaurant.
