    I've stopped in with new ownership and it's not worth the $6+ I spent on less than a scoop of soft serve ice cream. The service was OK -- unfriendly and not welcoming. Never spent over $6 for a few inches of soft serve ice cream in my life... next time Dairy Queen will be it for my treat!

    The total paid (with a extra side and a tip) and the "refund" for their error.

    I looked up items on the menu. What we wanted was $30 for the "Pladda for Two" featuring three double-sized meat options, two sides, and cornbread. When I got there to order, the price was $8 more. Okay, prices rise. I ordered and was quoted a price. But, it was higher than quoted because of the 4% markup for credit. Okay.... Then, when I got home with the order, it seemed the portion of pulled chicken was small and we were missing the pulled pork completely! So I called. I was told I could drive back to get the missing portions. I said that was not acceptable. I was offered a refund. I thought that was better. I was told it would be $6, which seemed low considering the $38 pricetag (the large size of the side we ordered is $4, so $8 for double, let's say $2 for the cornbread, that leaves $28, split 3 ways should be $9+). But, I accepted. The resulting refund was $4.52 and not what was offered. It may seem like much "to do" about $1.48, but it is about all of it, each little thing piled on to the final, lowball outcome.

    Pulled Chicken on top of Ribs
    BB Q.

    Review is only based on their BBQ food. Got the 2 meat combo with Ribs and pulled chicken, they had pulled pork and hot sausage too. At first look the chicken was all multicolored with the white and dark meat but also the amount of seasoning on each piece was different. I would say it was more "chopped" than pulled. Juicy meat, like it was stewing all day like some pulled meat dishes are made. A bit chewy for my taste but not terrible. Flavor was like a bad lemon flavor to me, not a fan. Rib came wrapped up in the tin foil that the chicken was in, I completely understand why they do that but its weird cause the steam and juice from the chicken make it seem like it was all cooked in the same foil. I couldn't grab the bones because they didn't stick out like St. Louis Style does. What I would call oven baked style more than smoked. A bit more tender than the chicken, but I just wasn't getting great flavor from the meat or the spices. The rub had a lot of very "dry" style spices, stuff that's neither hot, sweet, or powerful. So it really didn't make an impact. They told me the potato salad was one of their favorites. This potato salad is that store bought, sweet onion, miracle whip, red bliss potato salad. I myself really like this style but I know most people don't. Beans were Drowning in Gravy sauce. Some bacon or pork, some bell peppers, pinto beans. Bean didn't really hit me with flavor as much as the gravy did, but even the gravy wasn't much. Traditional New England style though, not bad. Cornbread came it it's own container and it was still hot! I don't think that is a regular thing but it was a good piece. It tasted like they have a generic store bought mix but then they doctored it a little bit to make it a bit better. Sauces were pretty thick, smokey was my favorite, but the meats were so juicy I would never put sauce on them.

    Adam burger with pulled pork

    I understand they just opened from winter break, but you shouldn't forget how to make a burger. I ordered the Adam burger which features their pulled pork. First off the bun was a bit charred, nothing I couldn't over look. The burger nice charbroiled taste, but lacking any form of seasoning. Veggies were a nice treat, but a bit heavy on the tomato slices. Wife ordered the Arnie burger which is just their bacon cheeseburger. Nothing too spectacular, under seasoned patty as well, and no bacon to be found anywhere. As for the Chili Cheese fries, or lack of, tastes like canned Hormel chili and some tasteless cheese sauce on about a handful size amount of fries. I understand it's not a large order, maybe put it in a small container so it looks like your getting more? Overall not a great first impression for the summer season.

    This is the sort of local joint every town needs...drive up and get an ice cream cone or a burger and run into your friends while you're there. Sadly, most of these "American Graffiti" or "Happy Days" places are long gone. Not so in Concord--Arnie's has been there for years and is still going strong, with a wall of "Best in NH" type plaques on the wall to prove it The menu features all the standard food made fast, plus some surprises, like Southern pulled pork bbq along with hot dogs and hamburgers of every description. French fries that are really good! Ice cream in about 30 flavors also on tap. Friendly service, and you can eat at a counter or take your food outdoors to a picnic table. The lines sometimes get long in summer, but don't be put off by them. Arnie's slings good food and the lines prove it.

    Cheeseburgers, fries and a couple of shakes.

    Always try to get to Arnie's when we fly into Boston. It's a drive to get there (about an hour and a half north into Concord, but we'll worth it. The best burgers and shakes. The place is cute and the staff great. I would definitely go miles out of my way for a burger and fries at Arnie's!!!!!!

    At our request they encrusted this cake with our recipients favorite candy- Nerds!

    A frappe and a kids size scoop of ice cream just short of $10.00. I don't think so. Won't be back.
