Restaurants in Dover

“We love it here. Great drinks, food, flavors. Go here! Service is great”

“We wanted Italian tonight and was pleased to find Cartellis North End right in Dover. Service was great. You can actually see the kitchen from anywhere you sit. Even though the place is small and noisy, the atmosphere was quaint and the food was delicious. I heard they give large portions, so we ended up each ordering appetizer and splitting an entree but still brought some home. Loved the spinach/artichoke dip. The chicken wings looked delicious but the penne vodka with shrimp dish was wonderful. Thanks for being so close to home and bedtime wishes to expand some day soon.”

“We have eaten here a few times and have never been disappointed. They aren’t your typical breakfast/brunch place. Cuisine is delicious and creative. Even my little kids love their bubble waffles. Highly recommend!”

“My wife and I went to Diverge for dinner and little bit ago. I had been looking for something out of our regular and I frequently check the reviews ahead of time. I had seen multiple posts about Diverge, so I pulled up their info, and I have to say, I also loved how the owner replied to reviews (especially the negatives). So, we decided to give it a go. I called ahead to see if reservations were required. They aren't, but they took my info, since I was already on the phone. When we arrived, it was just a short wait for the type of table we wanted (high-top vs low). It seemed pretty quiet for a Friday night. We ordered an appetizer of Pork Belly which was amazing and so tender. highly recommend. My wife got the Cod and I went with the NY strip, medium rare. My wife doesn't eat a lot at once, and after the app, she couldn't eat much of the Cod, but she loved it and was happy to finish it later at home. My steak was cooked to a perfect medium-rare and the scalloped potatoes were to die for! My wife doesn't generally enjoy potatoes, but she had a couple of bites of these. We made sure to let them know, too. The asparagus was also perfectly seasoned. I will admit, I'm a bit of a steak snob, and generally prefer my own home-cooked version. This one was well flavored and tender. It did come out a bit cooler than I'd like (might have waited a few for the piping hot potato), but when I mentioned it, they were more than accommodating. Also, there was a party of 12 whose order went in, and came out, just ahead of ours, so I'm quite certain that factored into the timing. It wasn't a big deal, and they handled it with grace. Against our norm, we decided to try the Chocolate cake with ganache and fresh strawberries for dessert. Again, my wife only had a few bites, and I'm diabetic so maybe it was silly of us to order, but it was also very tasty and quite rich. Even though we were sharing it, we brought about ½ of the cake home to finish later as well. Diverge is tucked away, behind Lexie's (one of our kids' favorite burger spots), enough so that you might not know it's there. We recommend giving Diverge a try and we'll be back! A side note dor those who like to plan ahead: like other businesses moving along the trend, their prices are cash prices and do have a small fee for cards to cover processing fees. It is plainly written on the menu, and we knew ahead of time, so there was no surprise. I'd say 4.5+ out of 5. Well done, Diverge!”

“The food and drinks were excellent, it’s a fun atmosphere and our waitress Cassie was wonderful.”

“We ordered for a memorial service. Food was delicious!”

“Visited for the first time today. Great friendly, funky vibe and delicious drinks and brews. Hope to return with the wife soon!”

“First visit and not the last Great culinary and wine pairing experience. Everything was right and delicious. I loved the kindness and humility of the chef and his team, as well as their real love for the products and willingness to share their passion. Bravo encore”

“We have been searching for a decent local restaurant that has great service & amazing food. We have been so dissatisfied in the past with other local places & stumbled across The Brick this afternoon. We decided to give it a try & we’re so glad that we did! From the moment you walk in it’s incredibly inviting & the staff is very friendly. The food was outstanding & the bartender that waited on us was top notch! We highly recommend The Brick! We will definitely be back!”

“Highly recommend this store - great selection, knowledgeble staff, convenient location and parking.”

“First time going tonight and will definitely go back. Food was great. Huge portions and enough left over for another meal. Waitress was very friendly and helpful with answering our questions. Definitely recommend the Farm”

“Excellent food and drinks! A fun spot to go for martinis. I've lived in the area for over 4 years and hadn't stepped in until last night. The pecan crusted chicken is SO TASTY. I would order that again in a heartbeat. We also had the buffalo chicken sandwich. The chicken was crispy and hot and the sweet potato fries were a nice accompaniment. They also brought out rolls with strawberry butter.

I tried 2 martinis, the grapefruit cosmo and the lemon drop (but I switched the blueberry vodka to raspberry vodka). Both were really good.

The place is split into 2 sections. The right side is the bar, which was packed and we weren't able to get a spot there. The dining room area to the left is a little bit quieter.”

“Best burger I've eaten in awhile cooked to a perfect medium liked fries too My bar tender was very personable and attentive”

“Great atmosphere. Great food. Great service !”

“We had a very nice dinner at Ember. We had a larger group of 9 and they easily accommodated us. The waiter was very attentive and the food and drinks were very good! I had the scallops with veggie risotto which was very tasty but heavy on the risotto compared to scallops. My brother in law said the Bolognese was amazing!”

“⭐✨⭐✨⭐✨⭐✨⭐✨⭐✨⭐✨⭐✨⭐✨⭐✨⭐✨ ✨⭐ ❤️”

“went there for lunch and my server kelly was on point and sweet as pie.”

“8/8 Beers on tap would pour again!!! If you have not had a chance to try this fantastic place, you really should.”

“Had to wait about 20 minutes to be seated, but our server was fabulous. Very friendly and welcoming. She took great care of us. Of course, we will return! ✔️”

“Fun, comfortable atmosphere! Friendly and helpful staff!”

“This was our 1st trip visiting NH. Everyone told us this was the place to eat. They were not wrong. Everything was amazing!”

“Great Location and atmosphere... Don't forget the SEVENTY FIVE beer choices!! AND, one of the best Burgers I've ever had. can't miss...and the staff is awesome to boot!! Be there!!”

“I stumbled upon the roost a few year ago and have had many different experiences, some good, some not so great but Last week I went in during lunch with my wife and our friends. Our waitress was more than amazing! She was very cheerful, fun, knowledgeable and very observant! I am a veteran but also someone who NEVER asks if a restaurant has a veterans discount. Our server noticed my military pin on my jacket and asked if I had served our country, the answer was yes in which she instantly thanked me for my service and informed me that they offer a veterans discount for “those who serve our country”. I was very impressed because no one has ever been so observant as she was as well as having some really great recommendations on food and drinks and was able to carry an awesome conversation with our table! Although she was by herself and somewhat busy (making drinks, cleaning, and delivering food) her service continued to be impeccable and she didn’t even look flustered at all! She also had a very unique name that my wife really fell in love with! Although when she first brought us our check she had forgotten to put the discount on our bill (we did not tell her she had forgotten it) but as soon as she came back over to grab our payment, she realized her mistake and immediately applied the discount for us. My wife, our friends, and I have been to many restaurants and all agreed that this was the best experience we have ever had! We will be back again to visit our new favorite server!”

“Had a gyro to go with side of fries. Very good gyro and fries. Will certainly go again!!”

“Amazing food and the friendliest staff around!”

“Simply the best pastries, coffee and sandwiches! If you crave real croissants, a great latte, and a delicious sandwich or inventive salad with top notch ingredients, this is the place to go.”

“I love Roots! Everything is freshly made and the owners are wicked friendly! My favorite smoothie bowl is the PB Cup and I adore their iced chai. ❤️ Will definitely be back!”

“Hidden gem!!! Great food and super friendly staff!”

“awesome breakfast. This place is so consistent with how good there food is. my only complaint is there not open 24-7 😂😂😂”

“Always amazing I've been coming here with my dad since I was a pup and will continue to come!!!”

“When I need to eat healthy, fresh and delicious food, this is the stop. When I’m craving a sweet treat, this is the stop! Ohhh…I could go for one of those completely over the top Pop Tarts right now”

“The cappuccino was absolutely delicious! I love the vibes and laid back atmosphere of this cafe. Although they were busy, our order was still prepared in a timely manner. Great place to come sit and chat.”

“My husband and I visited as part of our anniversary road trip. I highly recommend this place! The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly, the atmosphere was peaceful, and the selection of cider was just off the charts! If you happen to be in this part of New Hampshire, stop in, you won’t regret it.”

“My boyfriend and I tried Sara Thai for the first time after passing through the area on a recommendation. We would give it a 10/10. Mai Tais were delicious. Pan fried dumplings were to die for. My boyfriend enjoyed the spring rolls. Pho was also delicious. They also proved to be very mindful of allergies. I have a shellfish allergy and after letting them know and placing our order; they realized the base of what I ordered had a ground up shellfish paste in it, they instantly came out to ask me if it was allergy or dislike. When I told them severe allergy they told me what on the menu I could get as they were out of the base of the vegetarian paste they could use in place of the shellfish one was. Not many chefs or restaurants would think of small ingredients like this being a contamination , so I really appreciated the awareness. Didn’t get pictures of everything, but attached is two great choices!”

“Their Sweet Chicken Curry Sub is to die for! So yummy!”

“This is the first time my wife and I have been to the new location, I didn’t think it was possible, but it was even better than last time we went to the other location. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough, great people and delicious food.”

“Went there for my niece's graduation dinner for the first time. Food was amazing, ambiance was fantastic and the service was GREAT. We've ordered from there 3 times IN THE LAST WEEK- I am not even kidding... This has easily become our favorite restaurant. Can't recommend enough.”

“YESTERDAY, MY SON & I "DINED I"N @ THE DOVER SITE. AND CONTINUE TO BE IMPRESSED WITH THE SERVICE AND QUALITY OF THE PIZZAS. WE ALSO ORDERED A SMALL PEPPERONI FOR A FRIEND, WHO COULDN'T JOIN US... SHE'S STILL RAVING ABOUT THE QUALITY & TASTE:-) KUDOS TO THE YOUNG WOMAN WHO "MANNED" THE FRONT, AND ALSO PREPARED OUR PEPPERONI PIZZA TO-GO... GREAT SERVICE!! HAVING VISITED THIS SITE OVER TIME, I FEEL HIRING & KEEPING RELIABLE STAFF IN THIS TIGHT JOB MARKET, CONTRIBUTES TO CUSTOMER DISSATISFACTION...”

“Tucker’s in Dover, NH has been my go-to breakfast spot for years. I’m born and raised in New Hampshire, and now living in Newburyport, MA with my partner, we still make the trip up just to come here, it’s that good! My partner agrees and has even started recommending it to his family back in Massachusetts!

We came in most recently on June 16th around 1:20 PM and had the pleasure of being served by Natalie. She was absolutely wonderful—super friendly, personable, and easy to talk to. We had some great conversations with her and honestly left feeling even happier than usual (and we’re always happy after Tucker’s!). She’s hands down the best waitress we’ve had there so far.

Everything from the food to the service is consistently amazing. If you’re looking for a cozy, high-quality breakfast spot with genuine staff, Tucker’s in Dover is it. We’ll keep making the drive, it’s worth every mile!”

“I took my car to another shop who told me I needed new rotors and pads for my brakes but they quoted me too high, I took my car to Garrison city and they informed me my brakes were in great condition with more than 3/4 life left. They fixed a squeak in the rotor due to a shim rubbing, and didn’t charge me anything. I’ll use them for everything now.”

“I have been coming here since I was a kid, and we love the food! We threw a party downstairs for my parents' anniversary, and everyone was so kind and helpful! The space was perfect, and the food was delicious. It really is a great place! Thank you for everything!”

“We stopped by on our vacation to NH to get some locally roasted coffee. We also stopped by to get coffee outside at the coffee drive through to try it. I really enjoyed it.”

“We went today for lunch. The sausage rolls are worth the hype, very good. Waiter/manager very personable. Fish and chips very good but next time will hold the salt. Will definitely be back.”

“We went to The Nook for the first time today and it was great! The food was wonderful but the staff was perhaps even better. Everyone was so friendly and accommodating, and it was a very welcoming atmosphere, even with two (often loud) toddlers. I was very impressed!”

“We had Three Sisters Cake shop make our wedding cake a desserts, including cookies and whoopie pies. They were so amazing from start to finish- and everything was incredibly delicious. Their team was amazing. They worked within our budget, were super easy to communicate and make adjustments with. Our only regret is not ordering more whoopie pies because they were a hot commodity at our wedding!!

The hardest part of working with them was narrowing down what flavor cake and frosting to get. We loved Three Sisters and can't wait to go back and get treats for years to come! Thank you Holly and team!!”

“Great Fu@king Food. I will highly recommend this place to anyone. 7 stars 🌟 Seven”

“first try vegan, delicious 😋”

“Hifi catered a grad party for us and did not disappoint!! Delicious and fresh food, generous portions, easy ordering and great price! Rave reviews from our guests. Thanks for a great party!”

“Spicey crazy noodles 🍝 that gives you a zing in your step and cleats the sinuses”

“I had the Chili Verde soup today for lunch and it was delicious...ive been eating here for years and love the food here”

“Where do I begin?…I have been a customer for over 40 years. Their pork pies, maple rounds, maple cakes, rustic bread, chicken salad, etc…. My dear friend Robert, is visiting from Virginia for the month of June. We usually visit at least three times weekly. I fear we’ll starve now😔 Seriously, everyone here is wonderful, from the daughters to the servers and others. I feel like I’m saying goodbye to family. My son knows how much I love you and got me my last maple birthday cake last month. I savored every single bite 😋. I wish all of you health and happiness in your future endeavors. Dover will not be the same ❤️”

“Every time I walk in here these guys are hard at work. I can't say enough good things about these guys. Never had an issue which is more than I can say for a lot of the establishments around Dover area shouts out to you guys. Good job”

“The Olde Craft Bakery : My daughter had been gluten free for a long time. We purchased this bread at the beginning of the summer farmers market and continued to purchase it weekly. It is fermented which breaks down the gluten. Not only could she eat it and not have her belly hurt but it tastes amazing as well! The whole family is hooked on The Olde Craft Bakery bread. We’ve tried just about every bread they’ve offered - all delicious. Another plus, unlike processed breads, one slice is filling. The loaves freeze well too. Thank you For making delicious, healthy bread for my family!”

“Excellent service! The rainbow cookie was so delicious, and so was the blueberry coffee. I was really happy to see so many options for dietary restrictions.”

“My best friend and I are phô fanatics and had been pretty let down by the quality of our once favorite Thai place. We went searching for a new place to try and stumbled across Thai Taste. When I tell you this is absolutely our new favorite restaurant, I am not exaggerating. The meat in the phô was so tender it fell apart. The noodles had the right amount of bite, the veggies were fresh and the broth was to DIE for. Our crab Rangoon and dumplings were also amazing. That’s not even what really made this experience amazing though! The customers there seemed to be regulars and were so kind and easy to talk to. Topping it off with ridiculously perfect service and an owner who was clearly passionate, talented, and kind - it was clear this was a rare gem. Do yourself a favor and go. I live in Manchester and I will gladly drive the hour just to go here. They have a customer for life.”

“Great food! We try to make a stop by when visiting the area. Haven’t had a bad visit yet.”

“New Hampshire location: large pizza shop in downtown Dover. Ready to go slices of all kind, or you can place a separate order. They took my order right away. The food is fresh and piping hot. I went multiple days during my visit. Beverages choices (in the cooler) were soda, tea, water. The restaurant is not air conditioned- they leave the doors open for circulation but it's hot in there. If it matters to anyone else, the restroom was clean!”

“This was a great find. I really enjoyed the poutine and wings. Great service and beer selection. Parking is pretty limited in the area.

Parking: There was plenty of paid street parking on a Wednesday night, but it could be difficult on a busy night.”

“Haven’t been here in ages!!! Love that a great place like this is still around after all these years of being away! Amazing ice cream and great service!!!”

“the chicken fingers are the best!!”

“I love it here! There’s no better place to have a cocktail while listening to a live band, karaoke 🎤, and friendly conversation on the river!! ✌🏼💗 Fantastic team that works there!!”

“Took my sister for her birthday, her choice. It was a really good. The truffle fries are to die for! The onion rings were really good too. The burgers are 4 oz, just an FYI, they do offer a double. They have some cool combinations for the burgers. Great place for a quick bite.”

“So good even reindeer will cross train tracks for Dunkin’ in Dover, NH! Always friendly. Always greet me by name and have my daily order memorized. It’s like a local neighborhood coffee shop. Love Dunkin’. Part of my day every day.”

“i just came through the drive thru at this location the lady at the window told me her name was maizy and she was phenomenal definitely deserves a raise i have never experienced this level of quality service at any other aroma joes location before my drink was delicious and she was nothing but sweet to me i complimented her on her service and she shared with me that someone had just left a bad review about her and i think that’s extremely preposterous this was by far my best aroma joes experince i have ever had whoever left that review on her has no idea what they are talking about!!”

“Excellent pizza!!! Price is right ( no pun intended). Clean, all the staff are very courteous and prompt. Friendly. Thank U Cameron for a excellent 2 time experience in Kendall Pond Pizza in Dover NH. 🙏😇”

“This place just had an upgrade of paint, decor and staff uniforms. Not sure if it is under new ownership? Looks much better. Signs are easier to read. The portions are huge. Need a tiny tiny size for toddlers is my only complaint. Prices are pretty high, as much as a pint of ice cream at the grocery store. Overall, easy to park, easy to get to the window, and decent ice cream. Great activity for families. You can sit in your car, or outside on nice seating area.”

“The food and service is always good. The orange chicken is amazing 😋”

“The food was good service was great Madison was a great server very polite and friendly we had her 2 times very happy with her service very pleased with her”

“Our waitress Savannah made our night amazing. It was my birthday and she made it special. She pulled an April Fools prank and made us laugh. She deserves a promotion and a raise and employee of the month/year/forever. We want to be her friend. I recommend the nachos and daiquiri bucket. But you can’t keep the bucket remember that. 10/10”

“the chicken fingers are the best!!”

“One of the few restaurants that I still like going to. Amazing customer service and delicious well made food. I highly recommend.”
