Good afternoon! A beautiful day out there with the sun shining! First I want to thank all of our customers for their loyalty and support throughout the COVID pandemic, all of us at Gators appreciate you more than you know! We have not raised prices on any of our products since the pandemic started while costs of all our products have continued to rise! We have always been of the mindset that we provide a quality product at reasonable prices and we intend to continue doing thi...s! That said, chicken wings have almost tripled in price from a year ago and their isn't any relief in sight. We always see a spike in the costs around the superbowl that typically ends a week or so after the superbowl. This year, the price continued to rise and is at a level that forces us to raise our price on wings. Additionally, we continue to face shortages in getting them from suppliers. We have charged $9 for an order of baked wings for a few years and now we are operating at a loss on every order we provide and have been for several weeks. Unfortunately, we have to raise the price to $12 per order effective immediately. We hope you understand and know raising our prices is not something I do without significant thought.

Looking for staff to assist with all Kitchen tasks; including Making Pizza, Burgers, Subs, Salads, Wings, and other menu options. Cleaning and other duties as necessary. Experience a plus but not necessary! Possible additional work as a Barback as needed.

Thirsty Thursday is upon us.....Tonight's Pasta Special: Ziti with a side salad, bread and butter for just $8.00 beginning at 5 PM! Warm weather is on our side today.....70's by this afternoon! That means our you can enjoy the patio (deck not quite open yet) but soon! And for those that are wondering, YES we are planning to do Cans and Clams this year, SOON :)

Thirsty Thursday.....and Dan's Chicken Riggies.....What a great combination for a beautiful Thursday! Beginning at 5 PM until gone, get Dan's Chicken Riggies, bread and butter, and a side salad for $8 bucks! A nice little kick to a pint of beer or a cocktail! See you later :)

This past Saturday would have been our annual Gators Holiday Gathering, a time we show all of you how much we appreciate you and your friendship! We missed this and missed all of you! In 5 days I will have owned this place for a full 12 months.....As I sit here thinking about how different things are now than that day! I never expected a pandemic, never expected to be closed to inside sales for months, never expected the capacity restrictions, no golf tournament, no holiday p...arty, and never expected so many other things that this year has brought us! We have not forgotten these events and will bring them back in 2021! One thing I will say no matter how hard the last year has been on all small businesses I am still happy that I own this place! Our customers have reached out in many different ways to show your love and support for Gators and our staff! We are here, we are open, and we can't wait for things to get back to normal, whatever that will be! Stay healthy, stay safe!
