12 Best Burger Restaurants in Portsmouth

“First visit... An excellent burger—light yet flavorful, simple yet substantial, small yet satisfying, and at a great price. A milkshake with great consistency and my favorite fries—thin and crispy—served with wonderful service in a very cozy spot. Definitely recommended.“

“They have two vegan patties that can be subbed on any of the menu items, plus a few labeled vegan dishes on the menu. I had the Cool Beans burger and it was absolutely delicious. Really impressed. The waffle fries are so good too. There’s a vegan caesar salad on the menu that looks good too. Updated from previous review on 2026-09-25“

“Just a quick note from someone who never writes reviews. Sitting at The Beach Plum with my three kiddos and so impressed and grateful for the wonderful service we’ve received here. We had a tiny issue with one meal which was immediately acknowledged and fixed tenfold. Two members of the team checked on us several times after to make sure we were doing okay and then sent us home with an extra meal for later on the house. My kids learned a great lesson on wonderful and kind customer service and The Beach Plum will continue to be a favorite spot for us! Thank you!!“

“Tried this restaurant for the first time last night and everything was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. My friends and I tried the mac & cheese flight, chicken & waffles, fried pickles and sweet Thai wings. The goat Thunder burger was cooked perfectly and my favorite, the tumbleweeds, were crispy shoestring onion rings. Highly recommend!“

“I’ve been coming to Wendy’s every night after work cause I’m tired of eating food I work with but every time I go there I get cold fries which are one of my favorite foods. I’m tired of getting cold food and wish they would take pride in their work cause at my establishment cold food would be unacceptable and I would hope to be able to better my customers experience as a manager at my fast casual restaurant. I believe they should be throwing food out when shelf life is up and making new food to keep up with their quality“
