Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food here. Had a couple great beers and the best clam chowder I have had in years. My wife had the chili which was also outstanding. She also had the chopped salad, which was tasty and interesting. The caesar was a little boring. Had a Founders Porter, which was rich and dark, but... More

I did not have high expectations but expected more. I ordered the grilled steak and ate at the bar. The steak was fatty and too chewy and the service was there but you had to ask. I would try somewhere else before going back.

Great place and atmosphere to relax and make some new friends.I love the city of Portsmouth and this is a must stop for anyone who visits.The entire staff was great and all the people my girlfriend and I met were happy and relaxed.

It was always good, but in the past 6 months they have added more vegetarian and vegan items to the regular menu. Not a new veggie burger, which is nice and a easy go to for non-meateaters, but real and substantial... More

We go to Portsmouth every year and every year we try this place again...we are disappointed every time. If you go to the smuttynose brew tour they give you a card for a free pint. The place is always packed so we try it out every year. The food is over priced and just ok, nothing special at all. They... More

We went here as a family of four (two under 17) for lunch on a busy weekday (15 minute wait for a seat) and everything was great. The staff was attentive and cheery. Our waiter knew the menu very well and the beer menu very well also. He was able to give good suggestions. The food was very good -... More
