The Hammer Pub and Grille Reviews
A Portsmouth legend. The best bar, as in the best actual bar as a piece of furniture, I have ever seen. It is built like a cathedral, with a gentle slope supporting up to 40 elbows at a time. Belly up to the altar and say your prayers.Recommended: fish and chips. They have malt vinegar.
Stopped at the restaurant/bar for dinner with the wife. Decent location, short walk from the Hampton Hotel. Great service. Fabulous sweet chili chicken sandwich. Nice selection of local draft beers as well.

CLOSED - It was great when I ate there a couple of years ago - but as of 25-Jan-24 this restaurant is CLOSED and apparently being remodeled, to include a new roof (saw the building permit).Thank you for four decades of great food and service, Rusty Hammer!?
