Irish Restaurants near Bedford, NH

“My husband attended an event and was blown away by how poor the food and service was. The event coordinator and my husband both told the waitress my husband has a severe dairy allergy. First he was served a Caesar salad with caesar dressing and cheese, which he obviously can't eat. The waiter took it away and did not offer anything else. My husband did go ask for a plain salad and maybe olive oil and balsamic vinegar. He got a bowl of romaine and croutons (he avoided the croutons as they often contain dairy). The waitress did bring the balsamic after the salad was eaten. The main course they gave him sweet potatoes with cream. My husband did give the waitress the sweet potatoes and she was going to bring him some more vegetables but never did. The water glasses for the room were only filled once. Many other participants complained about the food as well. The broccolini was very undercooked and over spiced. Staff did not clear the salad plates before serving the main course and participants piled the dishes between them on the tables. The room was also quite cold. My husband keeps our house at 57-62 so for him to say it was cold is very unusual.“

“After a visit I'm sure I want to perform here as an opener or a main act great food and hospitality“

“I had the absolute pleasure of dining at Murphy’s Taproom recently, and I have to give a special shout-out to Eliot for making our experience truly unforgettable. From the moment we walked in, she greeted us with a warm smile and immediately made us feel at home. Her knowledge of the menu was impressive, offering spot-on recommendations that perfectly suited our tastes.

Eliot’s attention to detail was second to none — she checked in at just the right moments, ensuring we had everything we needed without being intrusive. Whether it was refilling our drinks or checking in on our meal, her service was seamless and made us feel like VIPs.

Beyond the excellent service, her positive energy and genuine friendliness were contagious. She took the time to chat with us about the beer selection, and you could tell she was passionate about what she does. It's rare to find such exceptional service these days, and Eliot truly set the bar.

If you're at Murphy's Taproom, definitely ask for Eliot — her service will elevate your entire experience!“
