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!“

“Let’s start with the bartender. Clearly having a bad night or bad life. Attitude was clearly needing an adjusting. Been here several times and never had an issue until tonight. Usually I will leave $20-30 in tips, I wasn’t leaving more than $5 but my fiance felt bad. Leave your problems at home rookie.

Food - great
Atmosphere - nice enough
Service? Garbage. Just this specific bartender. Got mad I asked for a kids chicken tender with the fries. Not even McDonald’s judges when adults get a happy meal.

- update - will not return. Owner just proved my point in their reply. Bartender cant control their emotions in a public service industry. Instead asks me to re think my review. I would recommend you re think your hiring process. Plenty of the bartenders work under pressure just fine. Grown woman with the attitude of a child.

*I’ll give 4 stars because this specific bartender doesn’t represent the other bartenders in the establishment.*“

“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!!“

“Love everything about this place!! The food was amazing !!! 10/10 Love the folks running it and Rylan was the Best!!!“

“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!“

“We celebrated my birthday there last night and we had such a blast. They were able to accommodate all 19 of us so that we day together. Sydney, Jenna & DJ Ghouly were amazing and made my night special. My throat is a little hoarse due to all the singing I did. lol. Also, I had the fried chicken sandwich and it was delicious! Thanks, everyone for an awesome night!“

“Always good service and food“

“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 came here tonight for karaoke and it was so fun! We got nachos and it was perfectly layered so EVERY chip was covered in toppings and our drinks were delicious we had rum punch. Our server Amy was right there every time we needed anything. I will definitely be back! I have come here to do painting before also a few times and I recommend that, its only 25 and they teach you how to do such a good landscape painting! I have them displayed in my house.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“I have been here twice. Both times I have gotten the Cali panini. Grilled chicken, tomato,lettuce. avocado, lemon aioli spread, with cheddar cheese ( it use to come with gouda). The bread that they use makes the sandwich the best. I got the tater tots with parmesan cheese as my side. Prices not bad for inside an airport- $ 18.99 without tax and tip. I gave a 5 for service because there was one person serving and cooking each time I've been there and he is quick and personable.“

“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.“
