Well ok, I am here to visit clients, but stay in Hays for the night and this is the place I go for food and drink. I do come here for the beer. Their stout is wonderful, I also sampled their Kolsch (seasonal), American brown ale and their hoppy IPA. In fact I purchased growlers to bring back to KC... More

I am unsure why people seem to rave about this place, maybe because it is the only (self-branded) "trendy" place in all of Hays? I have now been disappointed on more than one occasion. The food whilst fresh and well presented is 100% underwhelming especially for the price. I am not sure how you do a bad job of a... More

Best food in Hays! The beer is excellent too! We go almost every weekend. They always have unique specials, and a variety of different foods from vegan to meat lovers.

This place was as advised by fellow "tripadvis-ees." Awesome. I went in mid afternoon on a Friday: service was perfect, waitress was sharp, place has neat deco/atmosphere. I ordered the salmon cakes with garlic fries and asparagus. The fries were nice and crispy topped with fresh garlic and fresh basil. Yum! The asparagus were cooked to that green and that... More

The food and the beer is great here. I had the Oatmeal Stout (a couple of times) and the meatloaf and both were outstanding. Also, the service is pretty darn good as well. Overall very pleased with Gella's Dinner and Lb. Brewing Co.

We recently spent a night in Hays while driving across Kansas on I-70. Hays is the largest town in the region, and offers the usual assortment of fast food and chain restaurant fare along the interstate, catering to tourists and travelers as well as locals. We had seen an ad for Gella's in the phone book in our motel room,... More

Came here by chance on a Western Kansas road trip. Even if you're just passing by on I-70 you MUST stop here. If it's dinner time have one of their in-haus brewed beers. The pretzels are amazing (from someone who has had brilliant German pretzels) and the bierrock is delicious. Great atmosphere and delightful service. Lecker all the way!

Popular place - had to wait 20 minutes on a week night for a table. The food was mostly pretty good - nothing outstanding. Festive - but very loud. Great beer and decent food. We did have a disappointment with the meat loaf. But who orders that and expects great things???

If you want to have a real taste of the area, you need to venture downtown! Hays, settled by Russian German immigrants, has an interesting western history. The town is undergoing a reconstruction of the original red brick buildings that Kansas towns are known for. Gellas, although more cosmopolitan in decor, has a menu which includes area German recipes, and... More
