The story of Gys

Organic, plant-based and gluten-free comfort food at two locations in Utrecht.

About Gys

Organic, sustainable, but most importantly, delicious and cozy: these are the core values that inspired the founding of Restaurant Gys in 2014. Gys began in the vibrant center of Utrecht with its location on the Voorstraat. The following year saw the opening of a second location with a beautiful green terrace garden on Amsterdamsestraatweg This year, we celebrated ten years of Gys. In other words, a decade of welcoming lovely guests, a friendly team, and an abundance of organic, plant-based, and gluten-free comfort food!

Most important to Gys are the people. See here a selection of people from our fun team.

Partners of Gys

Everything you eat and drink at Gys is homemade. The products we use are certified organic and preferably produced locally. Some items are a little trickier to make ourselves, like our bread, fries or beer. For these products, we work with entrepreneurs who, like us, care about the impact of their business on the planet.
