“I'm not a big fan of chain restaurants, but I met a friend here for dinner. We shared the artichoke dip for an appetizer, and I had a penne and chicken special. I appreciated that the food was hot ? (temperature wise), but my pasta dish lacked flavor. The cream sauce was too plain for me.I've been to this restaurant before since it is convenient for my traveling friends, and even though the food isn't great, the service always is. I give them 5 stars for great service!“

“Came to Dover NH for the eclipse and ended up at Fury's. Made it just in the knick of time for happy hour. Had 2 "expensive" draft beers (fiddlehead, allagash) for the low price of 7.98 total. Atmosphere is sick, you can literally order a beer from the moon. If you're from ireland, you'll feel right at home. If you want to play pool, you'll feel right at home. If you wanna drink on the couch, you'll feel right at home.Didn't eat any food here, but judging from the sight and smell of the tables, I wish I had.What I'm telling you is, COME HERE!“

“I received a email giving me a free meal for my birthday so myself and my family went in for lunch and the staff was amazing and the food was just brilliant. So do yourself a favor and go have a meal and some drinks and enjoy the atmosphere and watch a football match (soccer) I will definitely be a return customer. Cheers!“

“We’ve tried Sonny’s a few times now for both dinner and drinks and we always have a pleasant experience here. So far, we’ve really enjoyed any and all food we’ve ordered between apps and dinner, absolutely no complaints there. They have a ton of fun and unique drinks that are always delicious and easy to sip. It can get a little loud when they’re busy (which is quite often during dinner time) but the atmosphere is perfectly moody and somewhat hipster feeling which we really enjoy. Sonny’s is one of our go to’s if we’re looking for some good drinks and good American food.“

“Was late night Friday and not many places were open but we knew they were till 12 midnight so we stopped in and got dinner. If remember correctly they had about 10 beers on tap including local brewers beers which was nice they also had speciality drinks as well after ordering drinks we ordered a Bacon burger,Buffalo fingers and mozzarella sticks. The burger was great and the appetizers came out in minutes and were awesome! The menu didn't have any desert listed but we asked and they said they had a strawberry shortcake desert with ice cream and a brownie desert as well so we happily ordered both and they came out looking delicious and were not small in size. Both were great! It was a cold late night so it was quite in there but it looks as if there's normally a band and there's a bar and tables out on the back deck which is directly on the river and there's boats docked all along the back of restaurants. Definitely a cool place to eat on a summer night. I've heard it's really busy in summer time and on weekends and I could see why. There's tons of tvs, and lottery to play while you wait!“

“Love this place! Sam is always so attentive to the customers very talented with all drink combinations gets them perfect every time and always has a smile. Food is good drinks are good service is great one of my favorite places to go for sure.

Kid-friendliness: Friendly environment.“

“Best experience everytime!!! Can't say enough of good things.“

“Always a good experience. Friendly staff good beer and cocktails.“

“Absolutely delicious food! We got the mixed grill special, bruschetta and beer cheese and pretzels and I have to say we annihilated the plates. The steak tips were my favorite as they were tender and marinated well. I have never been a fan of ribs but these were delicious. Great drinks thanks to Austin and atmosphere add to the dining experience. Stop in for lunch or dinner, you won't be disappointed.“

“Checked out Dwyer’s Pub on a whim and it quickly became a favorite. The vibe is cozy and the staff make you feel like a local the second you step in. Loved the draft list - diverse and full of quality picks. The fish and chips? Spot-on crispy and flavorful. Dwyer’s is the kind of place that turns a quick drink into an evening out. Can’t wait to return!“

“food on point. friendly attentive staff. clean“

“I'm American Chinese, living in Germany now. I have to say, the place is intimidating at first, but the bartenders are super friendly and open. I love the atmosphere and overall experience. Great place for drinks. Was there during the Christmas break 2023.“

“Awesome environment, amazing food and great staff.....what more could you ask for?“

“Staff friendly and informative about their menu. Have been there a few times. Overall I had an enjoyable experience with each visit. Enjoy the different drinks every visit as well. The appetizers are good. The entrees are hit or miss. Recommend nachos and Parmesan fries. The prices are reasonable and the staff are great. It does get busy so I tend to go early.“

“We had a fabulous birthday dinner for my husband. The tavern and history is so charming and every meals was delicious. Half of us ordered the restaurant week special scallop scampi and the lobster bisque and the Potato crusted haddock was great. Portion sizes and presentation was perfect. Service attentive. Would definitely recommend.“

“Newly renovated, The Moose offers an unparalleled selection of draft beers, combined with an attentive staff and nice food menu. The quality of the pizza was surprisingly good. Vegetarian options are limited and a preview of the menu is suggested with attention to prices which are on the high side.“

“My wife and I are in town for a wedding nearby (post UNH graduation). We were looking for dinner and many places were closed as the students had left. We found Clark's All American and to say it was a WIN is to undersell it!I had a burger and Caesar salad. My wife had fish tacos. Both were excellent.The staff was friendly, efficient and actually made it feel like we were friends getting together and not merely customers.The drink menu had some interesting choices, but we chose wine and beer - and the pours were generous.All in all, a great find for us and one we are glad we stumbled across. You should make it a point to purposely go there.“

“Excellent food and beer. We ordered steak tips and fish & chips. The steak tips were cooked exactly as ordered and tasted great, along with the mashed potatoes and chef’s vegetables (Brussels sprouts - not bitter, cooked well). Good serving size for the price, $22. The fish and chips were great too, with the fries being above average compared to most places around. Large portion size on the fish and chips - we asked for it to be split two ways and it arrived on two plates with individual portions and each plate was more than enough. Arrived on a Sunday afternoon so it was quiet, nice seating outside and prompt service.“
