“ Great food and the prices were fair. They have something for everyone: a lot of popular Pub food but also some interesting entrees with seasonal specials always changing. If you sit out on the deck you'll feel like you're on vacation. Inside is nice and cozy. You could tell it is family run as the service just seemed comfortable, happy and "family". I will definitely return! @amp_eats (instagram and Facebook) ”

“ This restaurant has a great atmosphere. Like an old mill style on the outside and barn house look on the inside. There is a great selection of food, never a bad meal. Good cocktails and good cold beer selection also. The service is very nice and quick to serve. Definitely check it out if your in Plymouth. ”
“ Five of us went for drinks and apps last night and we not only had great food, but also great service!! Typically we do not sit at tables, we tend to stick to the bar when we go out because we find that the service at the bar is better/quicker (not specifically at Gillis, I mean anywhere!). I can say that last nights service (at the high tops in the bar area) was the best service by waitstaff I have had anywhere in a long time. I wish I remembered the waiter's name (It was a Tuesday night!), but he was friendly, helpful and there every time we needed him. GREAT JOB. ”
“ Pizza, Bog salad, egg rolls, service and atmosphere 10/10! Best BBQ pizza that I've had. (And I eat a lot of pizza ). Isabelly was amazing, attentive and sweet! We will be back! ”
“ Omg! the food is fantastic! It was a little tough to find the entrance at first, but we just followed the signs, I'm so glad we went there! The bartender was awesome and made our time there over the top fun! Out on the deck was a view of an old water wheel used to generate power. It was a very nice experience all around! 2 thumbs up and a happy belly! ”
“ I’ve walked by this restaurant so many times and finally went here for dinner. Not sure what it was like before but after going in the newly owned and renovated restaurant I was so impressed how beautiful it was inside. The staff was pleasant and welcoming. We enjoyed our visit and will go back to try other choices on the menu which I found a lot of healthy options. Coconut Margarita, stuffed pretzel appetizer, broiled Haddock and the strip steak was our choice this time. It was delicious. ”
“ We loved the atmosphere on the deck. The fish (cod) sandwich was fried perfectly. The noodle dish was delicious. The crab and tomato dish was refreshing. I would recommend. ”
