So lovely! The wait staff was so friendly and helpful. The fish was great and the fries and cheese on the poutine was great. Though, I think next time I might order it with extra gravy for personal preference. I asked them to make a mocktail for me and it was so good! The only thing I see room for improvement is, I hope they someday can move into a larger location. But the atmosphere for what space they do have, was well done.

I had no idea about Gunny’s, but I’m so glad we found them. I feel like it is one of those ‘hole in the wall’ gems. The environment is very cozy and is a lot like a good ole’ sports bar. When we arrived, it was packed! They offer many local brews that we thoroughly enjoyed. We loved the mango habanero fritters. I have never had anything like it! Can’t wait to bring more friends here.

We ordered an onion ring tower to share, take a look and let me know what you think?My wife got the portobello avacado sandwich pictured above, the portobello was thin. The gouda macaroni and cheese was pretty good.I got the Big B Burger and asked for it medium rare more towards the rare side and below is what I got. This was another disappointment that I brought to the servers attention he apologized for the burger but didn't offer to bring me a new one, that's another place where they missed the mark. I'll try them again next time we're here, like I said they just opened and I'm sure they are going through some growing pains!

During our time in the Lynchburg area, we stumbled upon Gunny's and it turned out to be a delightful find! From the moment we stepped in, we were warmly greeted, setting the tone for a fantastic experience.As a craft beer enthusiast, I was thrilled to find Gunny's boasting an impressive selection of craft beers both on tap and in cans. Their offerings truly cater to discerning tastes.We had the pleasure of chatting with Shane, one of the owners, who not only shared his expertise on beer but also connected with us over his favorite brew, which happens to be from my hometown in New England. It's these personal touches that make Gunny's stand out.While enjoying our drinks at the bar, we soaked in the lively atmosphere, watching the Kentucky Derby and engaging in conversations with friendly locals who made us feel right at home.If you're on the lookout for a local establishment that exudes warmth, camaraderie, and top-notch craft beer, look no further than Gunny's.

Gunnys is a top tier hidden gem , the food is fantastic and the experience is even better. The owners are around often, they check on you regularly and the staff is committed as well! if you haven’t been in to try one of their seemingly endless options for a beer, or their delicious food , you are only doing yourself a disservice! Cannot say enough great things about this restaurant that treats you like family!

Date night! I ordered the meatloaf and it was delicious! Hubby got a hamburger! He loved it, too! The beer selection is good and can change. The cider selection was small but good. We spoke with the owner, and he recommended dishes and beers. He told us the recipes were family recipes. The server was really nice and attentive, with recommendations and chatting. Will definitely go back! I highly recommend!

We loved our first visit to Gunny's! Staff is friendly and the food is delicious. I had the Bruschetta Chicken and absolutely loved it! My daughter (who is picky about her burgers) loved the American Dream burger, and especially the Gunny's sauce. Her fries were really good too, and we fought over them. We will definitely be back!

I am Canadian and saw that there was Poutine on the menu. I have rarely had Poutine in the USA that tastes like home. Gunny's hits the mark!!! Wow, I can't recommend the Poutine enough. Don't hesitate....order it! The gravy is a bold taste and there is a great balance of ample cheese curds. Thank you Gunny's for making this Canadian girl so happy!

Had a good meal ... service was really good. If I had any advice I would hang some noise dampening cloths or panels from the ceiling ... it was really hard to hear the server when she took our order because voices carrying in the restaurant. Judging by how busy it was when we left I believe the little restaurant has become popular quickly and will do well.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free bun was available which is a plus.
