24 Best Pubs near Scarborough

“Nonesuch has been one of our favorite sports since it opened. This evening we had a party of 12 for my son’s 8th birthday (his choice of location). Even though they don’t take reservations, we called ahead on Thursday to let them know we would have a big group coming. We waited just a couple of minutes for the table, our food and drinks were amazing and the service was fantastic. We have some particular eaters in our party and all were very happy. This experience made me love Nonesuch that much more as I can fully appreciate that serving a big group this well is not easy! Thank you to our server and the team tonight!“

“We had a lovely lunch here to celebrate a birthday. The chef created dishes that looked—and tasted—outstanding. One person in our party remarked that it was the best burger she has ever had. The clams melted in my mouth, the drinks were great, and the dessert was decadent. The space is bright with a spectacular view. We could see Mt. Washington and the beach from our table.“

“Love this place and the bar tenders are great!!“

“took my kids (18,17,7) out for my sons 17th birthday. friendly waiter. great tasting food! made the wrong sub at first and comped it automatically and let me keep the wrong one. would definitely recommend!“

“I stayed at a hotel nearby, and visited this bar quite frequently while in town. The bartenders were awesome and super accommodating, and the locals were very welcoming. Great beer and food, chill atmosphere. Keep Dewing yo thang 😉“

“Best local bar you'll ever encounter!! The best, most attentive bartenders you'll find anywhere. Great hang spot! Also they have Salvadors hoagies being sold out of their bar. Best hoagies/grinders/subs/italians...whatever you wanna call them! Go here!“

“Went for the music, stayed for the laughs. Fun place. Chowder was delicious. Us Minnesotains were not so sure on the brown ketchup though 😆“

“Walking thru and stopped for a drink. Very cool hole in the wall place. We even came back after dinner for another one of my wife's new favorite beer seadog blueberry Corey I belive gave us some solid advice on places to visit and eat on our england trip!“

“Stockhouse has buffalo shrimp—are you kidding me? Wow! I’m absolutely in love. And they don’t mess around with their large order of chicken and fries either. Everything was delicious and left me more than satisfied. Definitely coming back for more!“

“Commercial Street Pub is the kind of place that feels like home—if your home had better beer, great music, and a bartender who could probably run the country if she felt like it. John and Tracy, the dynamic duo running the joint, are like your fun aunt and uncle at a wedding—but with better booze and slightly more control over the jukebox. John knows everyone’s name within 10 minutes, whether you told him or not. Tracy will invite you over for good food and a party within the hour. Then there’s Emily, the bartender. A legend. She pours drinks with the grace of a ballerina and the side-eye of someone who has seen things. Ask her for a drink and she'll make you the best one you've ever had. She’s got a sixth sense for knowing exactly what drink you need—even before you do. The regulars are great too. All in all, Commercial Street Pub is the kind of place where everybody makes it fun. The vibe is exactly what you want in a neighborhood pub: easygoing, cheerful, and just the right amount of quirky. One visit and you’ll understand why people keep coming back. If you’re looking for a pub with charm, great company, and the kind of staff that makes you feel like family, Commercial Street Pub is the place to be. Don’t be surprised if you leave with a smile—and maybe a story or two to tell. 10/10 would drink again.“

“Excellent Service. Drinks prepared properly. live Music.“

“Fantastic dive bar with falling apart pneumatic chairs, cigarette funk, outdoor area and 2 pool tables. Don't order a fancy drink. Basics only here.CASH ONLY and you pay as you drink. We have a bunch of fun here after a semi-stressful Thanksgiving. Thanks for being open!“

“We recently visited (5 adults and two young kids) and had a great time. Really only one of the adults had any knowledge or experience with golf. It was still fun for everyone. Service was fast, friendly, and attentive. Food was great! And we ended our outing with ice cream right next door. We will be back!“

“This is a great local place to hang out. Love my Vanilla White Russians and great food.“

“We’ve ate here twice now and both times were fantastic! Cant wait to come back!“

“Best bar under the beach!!“

“Great chicken parm calzone.. Courtney was great at the bar she made us a mean margaritas.“

“Great music!!! The staff was friendly and dancers were respectful for the most part.“

“A wonderful atmosphere and even better… good beer served at a good temperature. The staff were great too.“

“Vegetarian options: There are a few pizzas for vegetarians but vegans will have to eat salad again. Didn’t check put non-pizza options cause we were pizza-oriented. Food was good, but we thought it was pricey. Two 10” pizzas and a large salad to split cost $45. We did take out, so left a smaller tip than for table service. If you ate that meal in, you’d drop another 10 bucks for a tip. Not much for that kind of money.“

“Completely ignored by bartenders who were too busy taking selfies when their bar wasn't even full. If you want service don't come here, if you want to wait 20 minutes for a drink this is the place for you. Went Bull Feeney's instead and was welcomed and waited on immediately.“

“Great, vegan pizza! Not all pizza parlors carry vegan cheese, but Portland Pie does. And it is so good. I do miss their whole wheat crusts; I really liked them, but I guess there wasn’t enough demand. But this is still absolutely fabulouspizza.

Vegetarian options: Vegan cheese!“

“We were on a tight schedule to catch a flight home. Deija, our server was so kind and helpful. She put in our order as she seated us, she went above and beyond to make sure we had our meal so we could enjoy and not feel rushed. The haddock sandwich was very good.“

“Just a great.place to chill out, from the warm, friendly people who make up the staff to the delicious food and drink, it's the only pub I'll be frequenting this summer. Oh! And $2 domestics from 5-8 is welcome relief to my wallet.“
