8 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Keene

“Salt & Lime has delicious food. We ordered from the hospital and they took our call earlier in the morning to let us know the specials. We arrived and they had everything hot and waiting within 25 mins. The food was out of this world. The pad Thai street fries, chicken pineapple bowl, Buffalo peanut nachos. All incredible. I highly recommend them!!“

“They have a tuesday BOGO 50% off on Waffles and Crepes, in - person special. Not available online or for delivery.

Dietary restrictions: They have tasty gluten-free ice creams, delicious vegan options, and vegan milk products available upon request. Perfect for people, like me, who are allergic to dairy, and love cold, sweet treats like Boba "milk" tea, and "milk" shakes.

Parking: There is a paid parking lot just behind the store, and paid street parking on Main Street. Make sure to keep your parking meter paid up, or else the meter cop slaps a ticket on your vehicle, every time.

Kid-friendliness: Indoor Comfy sofas and limited table space for kids' books and tabletop games available for use by littlest customers and their accompanying grown-ups. Outdoor limited seating on iron café table/chairs (weather permitting).

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a wheelchair accessible ramp and wheelchair accessible restrooms for customer's use (ask for the key at checkout).“

“Amazing dinner! Wished I lived closer! Best food I’ve had in a very long time and I live near Boston. Every bite of the Homemade pasta with peas, mint, ricotta salata and brown butter was full of flavor. Best arugula salad, simple and light but again full of flavor. Lovely atmosphere where you can actually have a conversation comfortably. Excellent service too! Hope to be back soon!“

“Great beer. Amazing food. The truffle fries are so good. Love the sack lunch banana and the electric raspberry.“

“Tried 4 different IPA's. All excellent. I totally agree with one of the other posts. I'd put Modestman IPA's up against the more hyped/ popular Breweries. Too bad they dont serve food anymore, but they do allow u to bring ur own. Plan ahead... it's worth it!“

“Keene, New Hampshire. A town known for rowdy college blowouts and an obsession with pumpkins that borders on cult-like. It’s not the place you’d expect to find a brewery serving margarita flights that make you question your passport status — but here we are.

Elm Brewery is a refuge. A brick-and-wood sanctuary where good beer flows and the lighting makes everyone look 15% more interesting. The ale? It's the kind of stuff that makes you want to storm into a boardroom and shout, “Bottle this now, you cowards.” It's damn good — smooth, flavorful, like it was brewed with actual pride and a touch of rebellion.

The food is comfort with a capital “C.” I ordered the beef stroganoff — and yes, it came with meatballs. Not traditional, but I’m not mad about it. Creamy, rich, a little indulgent — like something your Eastern European grandma would make if she smoked weed and listened to Metallica.

My brother made the tactical error of ordering the cheesesteak, which he didn’t love. (You go to a brewery in New Hampshire and expect Philly-level cheesesteak? Rookie move.) But the fried mushrooms and spinach artichoke dip? Beautiful. Golden-fried perfection and gooey, cheesy goodness. The kind of bar snacks that keep you from ever leaving.

And then there were the margarita flights. Four mini glasses of pure tropical escapism. Lime, spice, maybe even some fruit you can't pronounce — it was like a Cancun beach party in a snow globe. Weirdly magical.

The staff? On point. Friendly without being fake. The kind of people who look you in the eye, know their menu, and don’t mind a weird question or two.

Elm Brewery isn’t trying to be trendy. It’s not chasing hashtags or TikTok fame. It’s just doing its thing — and doing it well. If you're in Keene and need a break from pumpkin mobs or college-town chaos, this is your place. Grab a seat, order a beer, and enjoy the ride.“

“The chicken chimmi’s and the grilled mahi tacos“

“Amazing owners! Very fun, and a great place to socialize with friends! Oh and of course amazing beer!“
