Food and service was great. Best sandwiches we have had in a very long time with a decent price.

A hidden gem. Had a great time here this evening. I've heard about Gippers many times and never knew where it was. Food was much better than I was expecting and prices are very reasonable. Servers are great, but we had to call them over. In their defense, the place was packed. Will definitely visit again.

It was late at night, around 11 pm, and I'd just checked into the hotel. I walked over and it looked like your basic bar. I ordered the Reuben sandwich and tots and a diet Coke. The food was pretty darn good, but the whole place was a mess otherwise. I had to finally walk up to the bar, where I was ignored for 8 to 10 minutes, to get a refill on my drink. I never saw the server again at my table. She really seemed overwhelmed, but she was fairly friendly. So, food good, but service below average. Maybe it was an off night.

We are here now and this place is amazing. We had a party of 7 and everyone loved their food. The waitress was so polite, friendly, and very good for being newer. One of our people ordered the MEGA G burger and completed the challenge with 10 minutes to spare it was awesome.... I will definitely be coming back if we are out this way... The cooks even came out and talked to us and rooted for us one the challenge... 10/10 service 10/10 food

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The service was good and the food was good. We had pizza , chicken flat bread, hamburgers, patty melt, and fries. Everything tasted good. Really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. They had "boom box bingo" , it was fun and people enjoyed the entertainment. Very nice inside, quite a lot of room and 2 pool tables, 2 separate bars, and a large outdoor deck. Definitely a place to try , we will come back.
