15 Best American Restaurants in Hays

“bustling with life, they were busy, & were still able to seat tables adequately. my sevice was perfectly precise on her recommendation. The prime rib... prepared perfect & on point, & served without much of a wait. Impressive. strawberry cheesecake was indulgent & creamy. This is definitely one of the treasures of Hays, Ks. Well done. To My server Miss Ella, Thank you for the most perfect service of all dining establishments I have experienced in my 50 years. Great job! - Roy Coates Stratford, Ok.“

“Great place to watch sports, play pool or work remotely. Best food and drinks in Hays by far! Luke and his staff are on point and friendly every visit.“

“The best hamburgers and chicken in town, sooo good! Highly recommend trying if you haven’t already!“

“Good pricing, large taste portions, quick and friendly service. I did not see the bottom of my coffee cup ... nice!!!“

“Went and grabbed a quick bit to eat . Our waitress was a young girl name Alexis she was a amazing like she need to be on the floor al the time instead n the kitchen cause there not a lot of great help there since Daniel left. She was a great at her costumer service. KUDOS TO ALEXIS“

“This is our stop round-trip between Illinois and Colorado every couple months. The menu of homemade comfort food at affordable prices is a gem of a place. Today I had a bowl of green bean dumpling soup and my husband had chicken noodle soup and a grilled cheese on French bread, but there are other bread choices. See you on our way back to Illinois!“

“I asked my wife to find a 50s burger place on our trip and Vernie's came up. OMG! Absolutely the best place for a burger. Good onion rings, tots were perfect. I rexommend the double cheese burger with chili. Took me back to my childhood.“

“I only rated the atmosphere a 4 because the post on Google says they aren't busy at 3:00 p.m. and it was packed. I don't like to be in a busy restaurant.
The food was excellent! They redid their menu, plus remodeled since I was here several years ago. I didn't like their menu back then. It is under new ownership and Nathan does a fantastic job! He also owns Thirsty's!!“

“I was there on a busy night without a reservation. Wait was not long at all, staff was very attentive and even offered free dessert for my wait. To my surprise earlier a very nice gentleman had already paid for my dinner. Hays, KS has the nicest people. A big thank you to whomever paid for my meal!!!!“

“Their food is usually pretty good. One complaint I do have is that I witnessed the cook touched my burger with his bare hands, no gloves. He placed it in the microwave and pulled it out with his bare hands. I find that unsanitary and unprofessional.“

“Always a great experience! Jocelyn is wonderful! Always remembers my family and me! Great environment! Great variety of food — boscoes and ranch are my FAV!!!“

“The food had gotten to where I didt find it that great, and I stopped giving after being a frequent customer. I decided to give them another try a couple of months ago and the burger and home cut fries were delicious. The burger was seasoned well and the home c cut fries were crunchy on the outside and there was no fryer oil. On the post these fries were often soggy with cooking oil and that is partly why I quit going. I went again just recently and again had a cheeseburger, home cut fries, and s side of fried mushroom. The mushrooms were nicely fried, light batter and no cooking oil mess. The food was great. I spoke with the cook and praised him for the great food. He told me that he was able to make some changes in the kitchen and it really shows. It was obvious to me that the cook is passionate about turning out high quality, flavorful food. I now recommend Sip n Spin, the food is even better than it was at its best. The interior leaves a little to be desired and it could use an update as could the booths. The atmosphere was fine for a lunch crowd.“

“Very good service the are very nice people and kindly“

“Delicious pizza and excellent service!! Stopped here last night all the way from Virginia while on the way to Denver. It was amazing!“
