    How are you going to get your "nooner" if you open at noon. We'll be getting ours, so go ahead and open at 1. We'll make this Good Friday good for something yet.

    I won't be able to make it. I'm going to be doing my Jesus look-alike thing downtown, charging tourists for taking their pictures with me.

    #i was at Gerry's with my gf and it was a great dining experience. that time, we get a cordon bleu and vienna schnitzel, both excellent quality, i also recommend the salad with a great sour sauce, i love it. we also got a piece of free pizza (even we were full already) and it was also great, surely better than at most other places, even i do not know all. Gerry is a nice guy, very friendly and caring the guests, and the whole staff did also a great friendly job - this place is fully recommended :happy:

    Went here with 'the family' yesterday (Good Friday) after reading up about it on DI. We all enjoyed the food, the warm welcome and yes; true to his word, as a first time visitor Gerry bought me a beer - so how could I not like the place right?

    My wife, sister & baby loved splashing around on the beach and it was lovely to meet fellow expats and have a good chat. Gerry & his staff are hard working and very welcoming. Nothing is too much trouble and he really does know how to mingle, introduce a newbie (like me) to others and ensure everyone is at ease.

    The directions to Gerry's on the beach are accurate - but it's worth noting that until the road sign is changed, the 'Pizza Sign' on the road doesn't actually say 'Gerrys on the Beach' it is a resort name. I drove past twice as I was suspicious a competitor may have been trying to direct me somewhere else? This needs changing quickly! I've already mentioned it to Gerry, who assures me a new sign will be out on the road soon - great! He needs to advertise the place as "Gerry's" then newbies like me will know for sure we are heading to the right place etc...

    Support this place. I enjoyed meeting other expats and I really liked the fact that my wife & her sister immediately felt at home and were able to chat with other Filipinos who were happy to talk and not be bitchy (like so many can be like unfortunately). Gerry's staff are also really nice, fun and attentive - so you can't ask for more. One tip would be to invest in a high chair so that expats with young children (like me) can lock the little devils in place and I'm sure after reading this Gerry will sort that out. Family's do spend more money, so a high chair for the kids would be a nice touch....

    Well done Gerry. I'm a fussy olde bugger - so finding myself wanting to go back already must mean something! Oh, and the beers are really nice and cold too! Best wishes Gerry & good fortune. Andrew, Angela, Julie-Anne & little Harvey.x

    PS. I reckon Gerry needs to open EVERY Good Friday. Dumaguete is like a ghost town, so all of us fellow expat layabouts will know where to go!:sleep:

    Looks like a decent pizza. I'm originally from Chicago and we love our pizza.

    Deep dish or thin. It's all about the dough and sauce.

    Went to Gerry's again today for lunch, this is about our 6th time there now and once again want to say how good the food and service was, I usually have a vegetarian pizza and once again it was great today, my partner tried the chicken curry and she was very impressed by it and said it was the best curry she has tried around Dumaguete, the vegs were cooked well as well as the rice and chicken.

    And once again Gerry took time to say hello and ask how the food was

    Went to Gerry's on the Beach with the family again yesterday (with a friend who's over from UK). Lovely pizza again (so it wasn't a fluke first time round!)
    Really is a nice place to chillax.
