“I'd recommend this restaurant only if you are NOT allergic to shellfish. they cross contaminate their fried foods; waitresses words not mine. if I hadn't have asked if they cook mozzarella Stix in same oil as fried clams I'd be either very ill or worse, dead. so if you are allergic and you go out to eat, ask the server for confirmation that they don't use the same fry baskets/oil. our waitresses said no we don't but then checked with kitchen staff... come to find out they do. I refuse to die because of a mozzarella stick. on a good note my husband liked the burgers.....“

“Came to Dover NH for the eclipse and ended up at Fury's. Made it just in the knick of time for happy hour. Had 2 "expensive" draft beers (fiddlehead, allagash) for the low price of 7.98 total. Atmosphere is sick, you can literally order a beer from the moon. If you're from ireland, you'll feel right at home. If you want to play pool, you'll feel right at home. If you wanna drink on the couch, you'll feel right at home.Didn't eat any food here, but judging from the sight and smell of the tables, I wish I had.What I'm telling you is, COME HERE!“

“If you are in the mind for a drink and a view and some live music, then this hommie establishment is for you. Set on the edge of Cocheco River on the backside of Dover, you might wonder at the variety of sea vessels moored below along the docks; marveling at their opportunity to reach the ocean from so far inland. An order of draft beer including a mix of IPA's will not empty your wallet before the evening arrives and the live music ends. The outside deck like atmosphere doesn't last when fall temperatures drop, but their is ample inside bar and table seating to suit your needs. If you decide on Dovers pub crawl, you will be stopping here, as the last stop. Order some grinds“

“Was here for a reserved dinner buffet style for 22 people for my brother's wedding rehearsal dinner.The drinks were awesome. Well made and you could tell it was an experienced bartender.The main course and side dishes were top-notch notch delicious. Before I continue let me just say I am SUPER picky about food. There was chicken breast with a type of Cranberry stuffing that was amazing chicken was tender and moist and the stuffing was so delicious. There was Fish with a type of stuffing that was awesome fish was tender flaky and perfectly cooked. There was a steak tip dish but I did not try it however the rest of the party all said it was very delicious. The side dishes were mixed green salad, baby oven-roasted seasoned potatoes, and oven-roasted mixed vegetables broccoli cauliflower, etc. I had the salad and baby potatoes and both were fantastic. There was only one type of salad dressing it was a creamy balsamic and it was absolutely delicious only wish there were a couple of different choices and there were no croutons but these are just personal preferences.Now onto dessert...there was regular cheesecake chocolate cheesecake and apple streusel. The regular cheesecake was ok but the chocolate cheesecake was yucky and the apple streusel was horrible. I could not even eat it and my father who eats just about anything couldnt eat it either. Mind you I love everything apple and apple streusel is my favorite. I've had some not great apple streusel but this was the worst I've ever had.Our waitress was fantastic.The atmosphere was really nice.It was not extremely clean but I'm a clean freak so things bother me like dust on light shades and on window sills where I'm eating.

Parking: Parking was extremely difficult. We had to drive around again and again and again and again and again before we spotted a car pulling out of a parking spot and then it was like piranha fighting over the spot so at this point we were late for the dinner even though we arrived 20 mins early. Also if you don't know where the entrance to the restaurant is it will take a bit for you to find because it sits way off the road in the mill building and the sign is small and not easy to see from the street.“
