I just had to try the hand battered tenders and bone in fried chicken and potato wedges! While waiting for my lunch regulars came in for sandwiches, roll-ups and cheesesteaks, the special for the day.

“Gas Light in Portsmouth, NH, offers a lively and inviting atmosphere perfect for enjoying a casual meal or drinks with friends. The exposed brick and wood-fired stone oven create a cozy yet energetic vibe that captures the essence of downtown Portsmouth. I was impressed by the attentive and friendly service, with bartenders who were attentive without being intrusive. The menu features crowd-pleasers like wood-fired pizzas, including their specialty Gaslight pizza, which had a pleasantly crispy crust and flavorful toppings. The chicken wings were perfectly cooked and well-seasoned, making them an excellent starter. I enjoyed the warmth and vibrant feel of the pub setting, which also offers live entertainment and a dog-friendly patio—a great spot if you're visiting with pets. Prices felt fair given the generous portions and quality. While some reviews mention occasional kitchen delays or food inconsistencies, my experience was smooth and satisfying. It’s a nice spot to unwind after a day exploring Portsmouth, with good drink options and a welcoming ambiance. I would recommend Gas Light if you’re looking for a lively, local dining experience with solid pub fare and good company. The one downside might be the busier times when service can slow, but overall it’s a dependable choice for casual dining in the neighborhood.“

“Service and the crafted cocktails superb. Pleasantly surprised by how quiet the room was with all the tables filled. It was pleasurable to be able to carry on conversation with our table mates. The food was delicious and plentiful: entrees ordered: pork shank, short rib, bolognese, jambalaya - the harissa brussel sprouts outstanding and not spicy hot!“

“The Nook has the best breakfast! Love the outdoor dining during the summer and warm fall days. The pancakes are delicious!“

“Service was great. Several times I've been there and had to send something back. Once was a riblets plate with honey barbecue sauce. A side salad was ordered. Instead got a riblet plate with spicy hot barbecue sauce and fries. I ordered steak and had to send it back repeatedly because it was rare instead of medium, then well done. I gave up sending it back that night and smothered my steak with mashed potatoes... Either someone was new to the job or learned to cook properly.“
