Gwen's is a typical small town small business restaurant. Had a small breakfast buffet, and a limited breakfast menu. However if there was something that you wanted all you had to do is ask and they probably would have it or make it for you. My wife and I have biscuit and gravy which I would give 2 Stars not that it was terrible it was just not the way that we would have made it. Does serving size on everything was big. My kids both had pancakes which were rather thick and fluffy and about the size of a dinner plate. They both said the pancakes were very good.
We thought everything was good! Full Buffet ! We were the only ones in eating at 2:30 pm do was like private dining.
This is a place of pure nostalgia for me. The food is most if not all "home made". Last I checked a buffet is offered at least daily. The buffet is like a home cooked holiday dinner at a family gathering. Service is pleasant and attentive. The dining room is well kept classic, and whimsical with high ceilings and many nostalgic decorations. Last time I was there Gwen was still running the show. I see the place is for sale. I hope the new owner manages to preserve this wonderful place. As far as I'm concerned Gwen's is the crown jewel of Lisbon and a place that makes Lisbon a destination.
Good homemade food. Had crab legs (2 bunches) and all you can eat seafood buffet (Fridays) for $16. Its real comfort food
The food ward great! We had the buffet and everything was fresh and cooked nicely. It was also inexpensive and the people, very helpful and friendly!
