40 Best American Restaurants near Allenstown

“The food was fine, nothing special . We were totally ignored for 5 minutes after arriving, then served by a very friendly young woman. It would have helped if someone said, we'll be with you in a couple of minutes. There were about 20 loud men sitting together in the dining room making it difficult to talk at our table. The parking lot is a mess!“

“We had a great experience dining at Revival. We were looking for a restaurant in Concord, NH to have our rehearsal dinner for our wedding. Lisa was great throughout the whole process. She was very responsive through emailing and had great hospitality when we toured and ate at the restaurant. Our waitress was fine and we enjoyed our meals. Farm to table options were a bit different for us, but we enjoyed the elevated dining experience.“

“Enjoyed a nice swift lunch with my wife and two daughters. Kids had the cheese pizza and chicken fingers, both bomb! The chicken had a sweetness to it which I enjoy. My wife had the turkey sandwich which was stacked with meat! I had the onion soup (must try) and the lunch special steak caesar wrap. Both were phenomenal, as I ate every bite. Our waiter Pedro was attentive and quick. Will certainly be back again.“

“Good food, nice people - other than the soggy "spring mix" salads which are chicory, no lettuce and gross.Restaurants serving greens that used to be only used as an entree garnish as your salad mix are ripping us off in the name of a $15 salad. Not good.“

“Delicious homemade mac n cheese joint with dozens of varieties and monthly special versions. Most can be made gluten-free and they even have gluten-free breadcrumb topping. Quickly earn free meals using their loyalty card. They also offer catering. I like to order on Mondays to get double the points on my loyalty card :)Dietary restrictions: Most dishes can be made gluten-free.“

“I've never actually been here, Google thinks I visited as I was stuck at the left hand turn lane for over 10 minutes due to inconveniently spaced emergency vehicles traveling through the intersection resetting the light cycle every time... ?‍♂️ ?But I was envious, while watching the nearly full parking lot and fair amount of happy patrons coming and going from the establishment!“

“We found out that our beloved Bella's has become Second Brook Bar & Grill. We had to make the trip to go try it out and found the food and atmosphere to be as welcoming and delicious as always. Every bite of food was perfect, the wait staff attentive and the community vibe just as we remembered. It's a bit of a haul from Durham, but so worth it! We will be back, I am already dreaming of the buffalo chicken app and the pulled pork casserole!“

“Amazing little place that took over the old Madear's location. It was very nice to finally see a breakfast/lunch place pop up in the village. Bonnie and Jay are doing an amazing job.The base menu is fantastic and has both standard breakfast fare and some creative adds as well. The real show is in the weekly specials: they're always creative and always manage to hit one craving or another (shout-out to the Mediterranean eggs Benedict with the lemon basil cornbread!).The only wish I have is for them to be able to start selling beer and wine; I would love to be able to come in and enjoy a mimosa or another breakfast drink with brunch. But aside from that Shirley's is a top-notch breakfast place where we always leave more-than-satisfied!“

“My son (20) who highly recommended the Kitchen knowing I love fresh ingredients and don't like wasting money on something less than stellar. This place does not disappoint. We tried panini , Italian, and chicken gyro all with homemade chips and a pickle. Absolutely delicious. We will be back!!“

“Great food and menu with plenty of seating. Think of it like great home cooked meals ?I wouldn't mind spacers between the booths when it's busier. During the spring and summer season the outside flowers are beautiful. I've not had to wait for a seat yet.Parking: Plenty of parking, pavement is a bit uneven and no lines.“

“Attentive & friendly, excellent customer. Diverse menu choice availability catering to many dietary & taste preferences. My only markdown is due to the minimal availability of nutritional facts for most items, e.g. Sweet Potato, Soups, Salads, Main Courses.Dietary restrictions: Safety for those with Shellfish or Nut Allergies is not clearly identified, if at all. Key concerns include cross-contamination issues.“

“My family and I went here and the staff were so nice and helpful, the food was so amazing. The drinks and the food came out in a short time. Joy was our waitress and she took amazing care of us. Tandy’s has an amazing environment and is in a cool England looking part of Concord, totally would recommend to anyone who is in Concord for a couple of hours or for the day“

“Food great! Atmosphere fun! Erin was a fantastic server with a lot on her plate. She handled some more feisty customers well while still catering above and beyond to make sure everyone was happy. Another woman working with her was doing an amazing job too, but I didn’t catch her name. Overall great vibe!“

“I can’t believe how petty some people are! If you have a legitimate concern then bring it up to the staff to get it resolved. Not blow it up on the internet like little children! If you don’t get an answer you want from your wait staff ask to speak to the manager/owner. I’m sure they are willing to make it right. This the only way they will know something is awry. Grow up!!“

“Since moving to Chichester in 2020 My wife and I have gone to dinner at a place called The Windmill Restaurant Inc. on Loudon Rd. I had visited the place often when I was a child with my grandparents and liked it then. Since then they have changed ownership, but are still as good as I can remember. Well Friday night they made my night even better. My wife and I stopped in for a early dinner and while there she had a medical emergancy, a very scary one to say the least. The owners and waitstaff where so carring and they all the made me feel like family. I can not say enough about them and the way they showed so much care for their customers. If you have never been I suggest you go and try their food. Portions are big and prices are very resonable. Thanks again The Windmill Restaurant Inc. for showing the care you did for my Wife Friday night“

“Dinner was delicious! My fiancé and I were visiting Concord to get our marriage license and we originally planned to eat somewhere else, but saw the 110 Grill and decided to give it a try. Food was so delicious and perfect for our little trip here. We had Janet and she was so communicative and friendly. I definitely recommend asking for her as your server!“

“The grilled gooey is a grill cheese on Texas toast with bacon and is amazing. I strongly advise getting the chips and a pickle with it. The potato chips are made in house and are phenomenal. This place is amazing. I’m Elm street it’s easy to find. Great atmosphere also and can eat inside or outside . The staff are also extremely friendly .“

“Nice friendly place, the food came to us very quickly and was prepared as requested. The French fries are amazing! Good beer menu and marvelous Snickerdoodle Martinis. The prices are good for the area. Street parking with kiosk payment required until 7 pm.“

“I had an amazing experience at Kimball's Cavern and would give it 5 stars without a doubt! The atmosphere was fantastic, and the service provided by Sarah and Dwane and Staff was awesome and exceptional. They were attentive, friendly, and made our visit truly special. The food was delicious, and the ambiance was perfect for a memorable night out. I highly recommend Kimball's Cavern to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience!“

“Great place for burgers, fries, and a beer. Good wine selection, too, as well as more traditional meals. Very friendly and professional staff.Vegetarian options: The Hippeas bowl is a good choice. You can substitute a Beyond burger for any of their standard burgers.Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free bread/buns are available.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu available.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair access is available.“

“Always love eating at Tuckers. Both the Hooksett and Bedford locations have amazing service. You need to call ahead for lunch and on the weekends, the wait line can get very long. Your whole party does need to be present before seating, so keep that in mind when you check in. We love trying their seasonal breakfast options, and their cheddar biscuits are absolutely worth every bite. I hope they bring back the coffee while you wait, that was so nice to sit and enjoy a coffee before getting to the table. I personally love that they locally source a lot of the food in their menu, it supports the local farmers and gives back to the community. Highly recommend if you're looking for a brunch spot!“

“Brick House is a summer road side ice cream stand that also has great food from hot dogs and ham burgers to lobster, haddock and fried class. The burgers are very affordable at around $4. Buffalo chicken sandwich $6. Their onion rings are very good. $4 and change for a small. And they have a full line of hard ice cream plus soft serve. We've never had anything bad their. They have ample outdoor seating away from the road and a nice flower garden with bird houses. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area.Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly with inexpensive food like hotdogs and burgers and kid sized cones.Parking: Lots of spaces lining the front of the building plus additional space beside and behind.“

“First of all, how are you gonna rate a 99 low? This place is a New England staple. Went in before my movie for a few brew dogs and some wings and left with a fully belly and laughing from the local conversation and banter. You not only can't beat the price , ($26 for 2 beers one tall and wings) but every time I go to a 99 in a new place the locals are super welcoming . 5 stars through and through . Also they have happy hour drinks and half priced appetizers . ShabooyahParking: Ton of spots and extra out backKid-friendliness: It’s a 99!“

“The restaurant was not very busy yet we waited a long time for our drinks which included water, ice tea and chocolate milk. Our food took forever as well. We were 6 in our party and 2 had their orders messed up, which were comped but the long wait was surprising. The other 4 meals were good though.“

“Currently staying at the Holiday inn for the police academy. After a long day in class I didn't feel like driving and wanted to grab a quick bite and have a few drinks to unwind. I ordered the smoked chicken & bacon pizza to go with my dirty martini. The pizza was great, I just wish it had a little more of the toppings on it because they were so flavorful. The dirty martini was also perfect to my liking which a lot of other places never seem to nail. I will be back tonight for drinks and dinner again during my stay.“

“The karaoke is awesome. The dj knows his stuff and can get just about anything. The people were friendly and encouraged us and each other to give it our all. Lots of high fives after singing our hearts out as good or bad as we were. It was all good.“

“This is not a tapas restaurant. It’s a restaurant with a small menu, with a lot of appetizers and a few entrees, but if you’re looking for a tapas place in the traditional sense, this isn’t it.With that said, their small appetizer menu is pretty good. Four of us came in a Saturday night and got right in without a reservation. The decor is sort of “fancy rustic”. You seat yourself, so if you go, don’t stand at the stairs awkwardly waiting for someone to come like we did.We ordered a couple of martinis, and some of their appetizers. We tried the steak lettuce wraps, the spinach and feta empanadas, the bruschetta, Mac and cheese and a few more. Everything was really good, but the standouts for me were the bruschetta, the lettuce wraps and the French spring rolls. The Mac and cheese needed a sauce, and the fiesta dip needed a better proportion of chips to dip.Service was really good. I tried the blueberry lemonade and the lemon rosemary martinis. The blueberry martini did not have any muddled blueberries and was a little too sweet for me, but the rosemary martini was perfect.When all is said and done, I would definitely return.Kid-friendliness: This is not a place for childrenWheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible“

“Remember five Stars at Applebee’s is not the same as five stars at a unique restaurant. This is upscale fast food, sit down not fine dining. For what it is, they do it right and Hooksett, NH is a great location. Food is decent and the prices are fair. The service is always great. Can’t decide where to go or just need a place to meet with friends? Stop here!“

“Our first visit to any Comman Man restaurant and we were pleasantly surprised at how uncommon the food was! The menu isn't huge but it did have lots of possibilities and we still had a hard time making our selections as it all sounded good. Foods full of flavor and good sized servings made for a wonderful birthday celebration.“

“Great place for having a drink out with friends or coworkers, watching sports, and playing cards or slot machines at the small casino to the left when you enter the bar. They have a good beer and mixed drink selection.Parking: Lots of street parking available, either paid or free depending on the time of day (free later at night)“

“Calling ahead about an hour before you arrive, there is very little wait time. It's not a reservation it's a sign in.POS - The waitress was a 10! She was attentive cordial and offered several suggestions for food and drink. The food arrived quickly and was exceptional!NEG - the vegetable (broccoli and carrots) were raw and taste was off. The atmosphere was horrible! The music was very loud and caused the patrons to literally yell to each hear other.Overall - More of a pub atmosphere than a sit down enjoy your company and food.“

“Order easy on the app, was ready very fast, food was good, I do wish they offered coupons online or app, it was my birthday this week they emailed me a free Medium sundae but only available in store dining with a purchase of $10, I ordered to crunch medium sundae online for pickup so I couldn't use it, they have 1 promo code online for buy 1 get 1 happy ending sundae but for some reason my order didn't qualify, tho I paid full price the food & ice cream was great!“

“My wife and I stopped in for lunch today, been meaning to since we noticed it on our monthly trips to Sam's Club. Pretty empty when we arrived (Wednesday noon). Dining area was nice, with large flatscreens on each wall. Could see a large adjoining bar, have to check it out on a future trip. Server came by immediately and took our drink orders (I will ALWAYS order Maine Lunch draft beer when available!). Returned quickly with our drinks and took our food order. The server (Caitlyn?) was very quick, probably because we were her only table so early. Wife ordered the steak & cheese sub (really prime rib!), and I tried the grilled chicken Caesar wrap. Both were very good, filling, fresh, and they didn't scrimp on the protein. The included fries and pickle were also good. Server was fast with the bill (at my request), and we got out as quickly as we'd hoped. Very good value as well ($42 + tip). We look forward to returning, hopefully for dinner or to see a Pats or Celtics game at the bar. Overall, we were more impressed than we expected to be and glad to find another 'go-to' place around Concord.“

“I make no claim to be a restaurant Critic, but Joyce & I are "Recreational Eaters" and go out to restaurants a lot. This year we went to the Granite Room at the Centennial Hotel in Concord, NH for Valentine's Day - and it was the right choice. I had the Scallops that were listed on the menu simply as a "Chef Feature" preparation. It was the best meal that I can remember since Corey Fletcher was the Chef at the Colby Hill Inn in Henniker 10 (or more) years ago. And that's saying a lot. Corey now owns and operates the Revival Kitchen in Concord and we have gone there regularly for many wonderful meals, but this meal at the Granite Room really was a standout. A mélange of Root Vegetables was toped with a row of 6 Scallops. The balance of proportions between the vegetables and the Scallops was just right and the mixture of flavors was unique with each component part contributing equally to the total enjoyment. The only reason I put the Total Experience and Ambiance at 4 stars instead of 5 is the noise level. Although not nearly as bad as many other restaurants, the Granite room does suffer from the standard problem of having too many acoustically "hard" surfaces and too few "absorbing" surfaces. Still, better than most. We will be back.“

“I'd read both good and bad reviews about this place but liked the good reviews more than the bad. We had the nicest server. I wish I could remember her name. When I asked her if the Downeast cider was good she smiled and said it was good and from New England. She was right. It was tasty. She also gave me a gluten-sensitive menu. The steak bomb was the bomb. This is what I'd expect a Philly cheese steak to taste like. It was delicious. I had a side of coleslaw.“

“My wife and I had our anniversary dinner here, our waitress Amy, was amazing, 5 stars on her all the way,we had a wonderful time, the only reason I gave 4 Star instead of 5 was we ordered our steaks medium well and both were rare but overall a great experience and will definitely be back...“

“I've been in the Common Man Roadside Market & Deli in Epsom Twice. The Waldorf Chicken Salad & Cheddar sandwich was very good with a good amount of Chicken. The only issue I have is the price. $11.XX plus Tax is a little too steep for me for only a sandwich. If I wanted to add Chips or fries that would have been an additional charge. As for the employees, nothing bad to say. They were great at telling me about certain item they have when I got to the register. The staff was pleasant & friendly. They have plenty of staff behind the counter to get your order out fast. The really good thing is that your name is written on the container when your food comes out. Great way of not mixing orders. Like I mentioned, if it was not for the high price, I would definitely go back again.“

“Great breakfast! I had my favorite, biscuits with sausage gravy and two poached eggs. Came out quickly and was delicious. My waitress was attentive, coming back several times to check on me to see how everything was and if I needed anything else. This was my first time here and I'll definitely go back.“

“Lived in Auburn for over 20 years; the Auburn Tavern was always good. Went back last night for the first time in several years during our visit from our home in Florida. Haven't had a more pleasant dining experience in a long time. Whom ever is running it now is doing a great job. The single Prime Rib my wife and I shared was more then enough for both of us and Really Rare, as requested. Never had any wait for any request. Topped off with an excellent desert selection. Best of all, really good food choices come at very reasonable prices. Wish we had an Auburn Tavern near us in Daytona, Florida. R & P Moore“

“Service was very good and food was good. Some dishes were better than others. They put peppers in the rice pilaf which is really unnecessary. It might be off-putting to some people, like me who suffers from GERD. The taco salad with chicken looked really good as well as the chicken tenders that my companions had.“
