17 Best Pubs near Bedford

“Great service, beer and food!“

“Came in with my dad today because it was close to the VA. What an excellent lunch! Best onion rings ever!“

“Fantastic selection of beer. Love that they have tons of Sours to choose from when most places have none. Cocktails are decent for the price point. Food is also decent, especially for bar food.

They have both a downstairs section for events and a small upstairs bar for comedy nights. They have a super small stage for bands and often have live music. Outdoor seating during the warm seasons and a backroom with a pool table and foosball, as well as indoor dining seating separate from the bar area. It's set back far enough away from Elm street that you don't have to worry about people harassing you for money or cigarettes either, which is always nice to avoid.

Service can either be fantastic or alright depending on when you go and who you get. Prices are fair too and they always run daily specials every week. I would definitely recommend stopping in if you're passing by.“

“as if the food and the drinks weren't already incredible I think my favorite thing about this entire experience was the server/bartender timothy carr (tim) not only did he handle multiple tables drinks and serving food all on his own but he spoke to me and served me in a way where he didn't make me feel like a customer he made me feel like I was one of his friends even though we have literally just met. by far one of the nicest servers I have ever met in my entire life and will definitely be returning sort of for the food but mostly because of him and if this man has not been promoted or he has not received a raise I really think he deserves it“

“Our favorite place!! Merrimack location is truly the best. We always have loved ❤️ every dish. We love to cook at home and let me tell ya, only restaurant that pleases us 100 percent! Delicious bread basket ( homemade hot buttered rolls) with chocolate chip bread tonight. Cheese and crackers out of this world! Haddock tonight topped with lobster, 🦞 baked potato and broccoli. Hubby had the perfect Filet ( yum) he didn’t share :-( Looked so good! Best drinks from Shawn( downstairs bar) orange cosmo and Common man red wine. Amazing!( such a sweetheart, great bartender)! Truly… thank you for a wonderful experience!!! I appreciate (we) every detail of our bread, snacks, meals, drinks and best service ever!!! Absolutely delicious!! Thank you!! Xo and Happy New Year!!“

“Easy access off Route 93. Great place to stop for dinner.“

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

“I had never been here before! They had every game you could imagine. Bri was amazing! She was so fun, from asking her to help me wash my hands (see sign in bathroom) to letting her pick me and my groups drinks (which were all great) she went along with it all and was so fun. I’ve already recommended this place to other people and I can’t wait to go back myself!“

“Always good service and food“

“It has a friendly, casual atmosphere that makes for a great evening. There's also always things going on on the weekends....musicians, karaoke and more.“

“First time, definitely not the last! Snuck a chance to stop in at lunch on a Saturday. Family run, greeted by a wonderful young man who kindly offered us a variety of seating options. Chose a Trestle IPA and was not disappointed! The Rueben is chose was absolutely top 5 I’ve ever had! Unique house fries that I’ve never had anywhere else were delicious. My favorite loved her turkey club too, though would’ve been perfect for her if it was fresh carved turkey. Pumped to be spending my summers 10 minutes up the road headed forward, we will be back!!!“

“There's a reason this is a historical location for the LGBTQ+ community. It's fun, the drinks are decent (a little overpriced imo but they're well made). Friendly community. Karaoke on Mondays is a good time. The food is pretty meh, so if you're looking for a good bite to eat, you should probably stop somewhere else first. The service is decent. The atmosphere is kinda fun. The drag queens here are cool.“

“We were at the Hooksett store on Saturday evening (February 4th.) There was an incident that requied the evacuation and closure of the restaurant. In the process of leaving the restaurant I dropped my phone. One of the hostesses or managers (I think her name was Lilly) went back inside to find it for me. Thank you very much to the restaurant staff and management; you were very professional and went above and beyond.“

“Went out to dinner with the family. Amazing atmosphere, delicious food and Nate was a phenomenal server. He was very attentive and made sure we were happy throughout the whole time we were there. We will be back!!“

“Thank goodness they reopened. It’s the only restaurant prior to going through security. If you’re picking up someone it is great to have a place to relax and enjoy a bite or a drink. The breakfast panini was delicious with tater tot type hash browns.“

“If you are a weary traveler looking for respite from a long day on the road, or you are a local looking to imbibe after toiling the proverbial fields of the Greater Nashua Area, this is the place to do just that. It somehow figures out a way to be classy and charming at the same time. Everyone feels welcome. You could be a baron from the West, or even one of ill repute from the North; Olde Kilkenny Pub judges not. It even seems the unfortunate men who are not mustachioed are allowed on the premises. Though there is a noticeable lack of the harpsichord, a good tune is oft heard in the background.The self aggrandized may confuse the bartender's efficiency, with hostility. Some strange poor reviewer (just below me, and one assumes, from the North) may even raise a fist in anger after being asked for money in exchange for drink! Of course I prefer to barter, but sadly they use the U.S. dollar to stay in business. If you happen to be in search of fun, laughs, and merriment, this is certainly your place.“

“I am writing because I have special need diet not only am I GF,DF now more foods have been removed. So we were about ready to leave because I didn't for my needs. When Kristen asked what my needs were and she fulfilled my request. Thank you Kristen and the Cook. It was a great experience.“
