It was totally by accident we found Gilleys . I put in my gps what’s the closest place to eat. It came up with Gilleys. We stopped in this awesome tiny little place, ordered our food . People coming and going . The girl alone mind you behind the counter busting out food like crazy ( I’d never let her go) when we finally sat down to eat it was amazing. My favorite place to eat is Gilleys and I’m shouting it from the rooftops!!!!!!
Comfort food at its finest. A destination eatery, frequented on many a night in my well-spent youth when Ralph Gilbert worked his wizardry when it was parked in Market Square, in my adventurous advanced age I still make the pilgrimage. One always gets a great dog and delicious beans at Gilley's. Though I am kind of old school and go there primarily to feast on the hot dogs, my girls always enjoyed the cheesy fries. Whether with my mom or my kids, you just can't beat Gilley's

My first time being there yesterday and was good. Hard to believe it was a cart at one point. But was able to watch a bit of cops on tv.
Arleene is great!
I think there may have been a new cook (from the sounds, of him not knowing some of the “regulars”)
First visit in, in my new town I’m calling home.
Grabbed a breakfast sandwich that was undeniably delish! Service from Arleene, was great-perfect!
Happy to have this little late night gem, in town.
Spent a lot of years in Lowell, hitting up the train cart diners, both morning and late night.
Dig it!
WISH they have table/and service. Regardless, undeniably a Portsmouth staple and New England brand.
Go here!
A great piece of history nestled in between the growth of a city. The chili burger was the taste of my day. Keep up the great work and preserve this little piece of local history!
Great little hidden gem in downtown! Grilled Cheese Steak and Cheese was awesome! Stop in atleast once and you won't be disappointed!
Gilleys Diner is the Number 1 place to go after a night out in Portsmouth. Have some of the best hotdogs and Hamburgs you'll ever have and chilli cheese fries. So if you've never been get over to the rail car on Fleet St next to the parking Garage.
Stopped in and had a Philly Cheesy Steak sandwich and such delicious cheesy fries! Yummmm! So happy we stopped in here. The service was good and prices were awesome too! Thanks again! :-)
Still the best cheeseburgers I've ever had, the service is excellent and the place is as always is immaculate! Could not recommend it enough cheers!
If you enjoy a good 🍔 burger, this is the place!
The best steak and cheese in the world!!
I was stationed on the USS Detector back in the seventies..76-78..Gilley's was the spot to hit late night...Still have fond memories..The burgers were second to none..A burger with raw onion could not be better... I went back in 1999, and it was the still the best..I miss eating at Gilley's..
Very very yummy! Its always worth the trip to this cute little diner.
Delicious cheesburgers and the best homemade fries :)
