Brittany was great! Sat at the bar during happy hour, they were packed. She took good care of me. Got the onion soup which was excellent, beers were a good deal. It's a bit too noisy and crowded for my liking, but otherwise seems like a very cool place. 2 separate areas, one is more of a "bar" feel, the main one is more of a pub/restaurant. Huge deck out back. Happy hour is apparently always very busy!

My hotel made a few recommendations- I’m glad they mentioned Gippers. My guy/bartender/host Eric was awesome. He spotted I was from out of the area, we hit up some friendly conversation and felt right at home. He recommended the wings, why and how they are prepared—some of the best I’ve had in a long time! Cool, laid back vibe. Had some great live music and tunes in between. For an out of towner to get 2 Bells on tap it was a treat. Will be back.

First time visitor. Stopped in for happy hour with a few coworkers. They had a great drink and food selection. The place was busy and the servers did their best to keep up. I definitely plan to visit again!

Eric is the best bartender!! He is so much fun. A big group went this past weekend for my brothers birthday and he was always attentive, had a huge smile the entire night, and made us feel so welcomed! Thank you again, Eric!! 10/10

It is not a bad place for a few drinks and the food is good. The overall atmosphere is so so. Overall always happy to stop in. It has a very large back deck in nice weather.

Myself and a colleague went to Gippers this week trying to find an out of town hockey game and have dinner. The waitress (who I think was the manager) was able to find the game and provided tremendous service the entire evening we were there. Food was great as well! Will definitely be back!

It felt like you had to flag someone down to get anything when sitting at the bar. They don’t seem to pay too much attention even with two bartenders. Wings weren’t good at all. I would say the only positive was the ranch was really good and the beer was cold.

Monday night and they were on point. Ask for Eric, the dude kept track of the 7 of us (including 3 picky kids) in his head without missing a beat. The line dancing lessons looked fun, too bad I forgot my cowboy boots ;-)

My first time going to Gippers but it will not be my last this place was off the chain I loved the live Band and the DJ was awesome aswell nice mixed crowd. I haven't been out in years

This is a great place to eat and drink! Service is fantastic! The Chef brought us a couple samples of ribs and asked our thoughts. We did order the ribs they were yummy!
