“The size is deceiving! The inside is bigger than the outside appears. Frosty draft beers and well cooked food will keep me coming back. The server was friendly and attentive. I had a burger that was prepared to my liking. The fries are fresh and not soggy. Keno and big screen TV. Dessert I had a root beer float. Worth the stop for lunch.“

“The food is really great for burgers, pizza and beer.
But that is perfect.
And the atmosphere is exactly as you might expect, perfect for a great place to eat, meet friends, watch the game.
Do not hesitate to go to Napper Tandy's in Walpole if you want the food and atmosphere they offer.“

“Visited this restaurant on May 7, 2025; stopped in a little bit after lunch to grab a quick something to eat on a whim. Katie was our server as well as bartender, was very friendly and professional… She knew her menu and we ordered the cheeseburger sliders from the appetizer menus and each had a New England Claim chowder in a bread bowl. That New England clam chowder had to be the best clam chowder I have had in 25+ years and I grew up in Massachusetts! I’m a very picky chowder lover… And this only needed a sprinkle of pepper. The proportions were amazing. The presentation was on point and the prices were reasonable. We got a sample of the beef stew, which I’m looking forward to having when I go back the next visit. Or perhaps the pot roast… There were several vegan and other meatless meals they offered. Everything tasted divine. Cheers for brilliant atmosphere ! Will be back soon 🇮🇪“
