“I’ve been going to Societe for years now, and honestly, I don’t know what I’d do without their apothecary teas. I’m a mom to 4-year-old twins, and medicine has been one of the hardest parts of parenting. I’ve never felt good about giving them over-the-counter cold meds—too many weird ingredients I can’t pronounce, and they never seem to help much anyway. But finding natural remedies that actually work? That’s been a whole other struggle. Every fall, I make my annual trip to Societe to stock up on my go-to teas: Throat Ease, Get Well, Breathe, Fever Break, Be Well Immuni Tea, and Digest Ease. The first five are always in my pantry. When my kids start sniffling or coughing, I don’t even think twice—I make them a warm cup of tea. It’s so much easier than fighting with them to take some nasty-tasting syrup that ends up all over their shirt or spit out halfway through. These teas work fast, they taste good, and I feel better knowing I’m helping their little bodies heal naturally. Now let me talk about Digest Ease, because this one… wow. If you’ve been through potty training, you know the constipation phase is brutal. My daughter was in so much pain, scared to go, crying, and I felt helpless. Doctors kept recommending milk of magnesia and other stuff that just didn’t feel right. I tried everything—fiber, prune juice, homeopathic drops—and nothing gave her consistent relief. Digest Ease was the only thing that helped. It’s gentle, it works fast, and it gave my daughter real relief without the drama. I’ve told every mom friend I know about it, and they’ve all had the same experience. If you’re a parent who’s tired of chemical-filled meds and just wants something safe, natural, and effective—these teas are it. They’re not just products. They’re part of how I care for my kids. I’ll never go another season without them.“

“James and Ashley are some of my favorite baristas! One day they were out of egg white veggie bite things and she reccomended (cause I’m vegetarian) to take the bacon off one of the sandwiches. I ended up getting what I needed to start my day so thank you so much for the help.
And James is always friendly and I get stoaked when I see him WERK.“

“Always love the pulled pork sliders and amazing seasoned house fries…always fast great service with a smile!“

“We ate here today for the first time and it was amazingly fresh and delicious. The food was outstanding and the coffee was top notch. The gentleman working the front was very pleasant and friendly. We will be back.“

“My daughter and I dined here and enjoyed it very much. The server was great, fun, polite and fast. Food was fab. We had the poutine, a unique and delicious take, and the beet salad. Drinks were strong. Very enjoyable dining experience. Will definitely be back and recommend.“

“Love the atmosphere...the food was delicioso...margaritas to die for...friendly staff...love love love 💗“

“Was awesome to find a quality coffee bar open after the show we went to last night. Especially coming from Quincy ‘the DirtyQ’ MA, which is a coffee desert. 13 DD’s but no coffee to be found. We had legit espressos in demitasse ( no paper cups which ruin the experience )before heading south again. 👍✌️🚀👽🚴‍♂️“

“Gas Light in Portsmouth, NH, offers a lively and inviting atmosphere perfect for enjoying a casual meal or drinks with friends. The exposed brick and wood-fired stone oven create a cozy yet energetic vibe that captures the essence of downtown Portsmouth. I was impressed by the attentive and friendly service, with bartenders who were attentive without being intrusive. The menu features crowd-pleasers like wood-fired pizzas, including their specialty Gaslight pizza, which had a pleasantly crispy crust and flavorful toppings. The chicken wings were perfectly cooked and well-seasoned, making them an excellent starter. I enjoyed the warmth and vibrant feel of the pub setting, which also offers live entertainment and a dog-friendly patio—a great spot if you're visiting with pets. Prices felt fair given the generous portions and quality. While some reviews mention occasional kitchen delays or food inconsistencies, my experience was smooth and satisfying. It’s a nice spot to unwind after a day exploring Portsmouth, with good drink options and a welcoming ambiance. I would recommend Gas Light if you’re looking for a lively, local dining experience with solid pub fare and good company. The one downside might be the busier times when service can slow, but overall it’s a dependable choice for casual dining in the neighborhood.“
