I am a black women and I never in my life went to Peppers and when I asked for a drink , she refused to serve me and told me she didn't need to explain why. The cook immediately came out from the kitchen to hear our conversation and started vaping right infront of me, and he had no gloves on! She will serve her "regulars" before anyone else, so be aware that you will be sitting and waiting to be attended for several long minutes. I noticed that this unprofessional careless Karen will also serve anyone without ID them. I will for sure be giving the police a tip about this!

We stopped in to try the new Peppers Pub in town which recentlt opened…read more It was a Saturday evening and there were just a handful of people inside. Its a pub- with 2 pool tables, pinball machines; bar seating and high tops. They do have beers on tap and we had some Blue Moons with came with blood orange slices- which was cool. The meniu is slim- buirgers, fries, onion rings, chicken fingers, salads. steak tips. Its a "scrach kitchen" and everything is made fresh to order. We had chicken bites with dipping sauces, onion rings, burgers with fries. The burger pattys are thin and flat so only cooked one way. The meal was really good! Food was excellent actually. The atmasphere is kind of off putting- as there was "Lets Go Brandon" flag on display which is a political statement for sure. We will be eating other places and skip this one.

Orders were App was bang bang broccoli- great flavorful change pace from the typical bang bang cauliflower we find at a lot of places. One main was lobster roll on a gluten free bun. Side was sweet potato fries. My wife really enjoyed this dish. Second main was Korean Krispy Chicken side of tater tots. Chicken was cooked correctly and the sauce amazing. Drink was a non alcoholic Guinness. I loved and recommend this dish. Our server came back and checked on us regularly and offered dessert at the end. Now was it worth a $100 lunch after tip? Yes it is. Life is too short to not enjoy yourself. Now eat some great food.

3rd visit in a few weeks time, the bar service is PHENOMENAL! Our only complaints were the…read moreabsolute lack of air conditioning (90+ degrees out and no working air flow on the second floor)! You sit there for 30 minutes and you lose your appetite, causing the restaurant to lose money. Watched multiple people walk in and directly back out even with ample bar space. The food is some of the best I've had at the chain. Love the wings, feta dip, general tsos chicken, and burgers! Drinks and friendly conversation with bartenders is amazing! If you don't make a reservation, don't bother sitting anywhere but the bar. They have 6 hostesses on a given night and not a single one will greet you or act professional. Can't get an accurate wait time aside from "X number of people ahead of you". No communication that upper and lower level seating waits are different. At the end of the day, come here for the bar and decent food. Don't expect air conditioning or appropriate management.

Our group's dinner here started very slightly awkwardly, but once we were seated, everything was…read morefine. We were a party of 7 showing up for dinner on a Saturday evening, unsure of whether a table would be available. When we got there, we saw the parking lot was not full, and there were empty tables. We were then told there would be a 10 minute wait, and I immediately thought, "Uh oh, they're understaffed." I don't know if someone over heard one dining companion say "Oh, there's a table over there that can accommodate us, " but within about 2 minutes, we were immediately seated there. I was unsure what to expect from this small BBQ chain, but after looking at the menu, I was very optimistic. What amazed me the most was their extensive whiskey selection, and of course I took advantage of that. My pour was generous and reasonably priced. Most of the other drinks came out quickly, though 1 was delayed. It was very easy to split our group into separate checks, and we received great service from our waitress. I enjoyed everything I ordered, but if you have sensitivities to pepper, you may want to ask your server about the amount of pepper in any dish. My smoked turkey slices, tasty but maybe just a wee bit dry, has pepper on the edges. I was even more surprised to taste pepper in the beans. But overall, everyone in our group really enjoyed all of our appetizers and entrees. This restaurant is convenient to friends I frequently visit in the area, and we already agreed this will be a frequent future destination.

We chose to have Easter dinner at Dreo and I am so so glad we did! Before we even got there I had…read morecalled a few weeks before to add a person to our reservation and they had no problem with it which was quite a relief! We had a party of 7 and we were very excited to finally try Dreo. We started with 2 orders of the calamari and the spinach dip special. My husband noticed the calamari also had shrimp which I am allergic to. They happily removed the shrimp but unfortunately it's fried in the same oil (which is completely logical) but everyone at our table (besides me) throughly enjoyed the calamari. I cannot even begin to explain how good the spinach dip was. I'm not sure I'll have want to eat spinach dip without garlic bread again!!! Next up entrees: 2 ribeyes, 1 NY strip, 1 Korean BBQ Bowl, 1 Soy Maple Glazed Salmon, and 1 Tuscan Fried Chicken. I am newly pregnant and to be honest I was not looking forward to eating out because my go to is rib eye but I refuse to eat well done meat so instead I ordered the Tuscan fried chicken. I also asked to sub the mashed potatoes for truffle fries and the veggie medley for green beans. They had no problems with my requests which I loved. I loved every single bite of my chicken and I actually stopped caring that I was missing on steak! In fact every single person at our table loved everything they ate too. We ended our meal with cookie skillets and again absolutely delicious! Now our meal was fantastic by itself but I have to say our waiter Brett was just as amazing!! He couldn't have done a better job and he totally rolled with our parties over the top personalities. Even if the food wasn't outstanding we'd go back just for the service! I really hope of the owners or managers see this; Brett is fantastic and deserves praise!! We will definitely be back and since I still have about 7 and half months to go I will be coming back for more Tuscan fried chicken soon!!

I couldn't believe the rudeness of the manager here. The bartender/waiter (I sat at the bar) was…read morevery nice, however the manager came over and grabbed our plates making a rude comment. Said something like what's this mess? with a bothered attitude. Uhm ma'am those empty plates because we just ate our apps and our waiter has been non-stop tending to other patrons. Then we ordered a salad with steak. After 30-mins this same manager (from the far back the counter--too tired to come near us) said there was no greek dressing. The bartender stood and watched as she revisited her memory to see what salad dressings they had. She rudely told us you can have oil and vinegar. After exactly 1-hour I had to ask about the whereabouts of my salad!!! And then it showed up (only after I asked). Dry leaves of lettuce and dry steak. Not even a sorry we took long. Wow! Is this supposed to be a nicer restaurant? And what's up with that manager (lady with white sweater; please find another job or business (if you're the owner; you're quite unhappy there).

Had my first experience at Sandtrap the other night! I'm part of a Facebook group called Merrimack…read moreValley Eats and went there to post for some suggestions for a good Tuesday trivia night in the area - the suggestions were overwhelmingly leaning towards Merrimack Valley Golf Club! The trivia host himself, Mike, was one of the people to suggest we go there. Once we got there, I was able to identify Mike and said hi as he handed us our trivia papers. He was great on the mic, dry sense of humor and moved a good pace with the trivia! We ended up coming in 1st place out of 4 or 5 teams! It's a relatively small inside space with the most beautiful patio looking out onto the course which has some of the best sunsets in the MV area! Our server was Ian who was very cool, laid back, and fit the vibe of the place. I work in the service industry myself and respect the hell out of a good server, he knew his stuff, our food came out right even with a few modifications on my friends entree. I highly suggest the steak tips and start with the sweet potato fries with Jalapeño aioli as an app for the table! THEYRE SO GOOD. The golf course itself is beautiful and upstairs from sandtrap is another restaurant/bar called "Parlay" - beautifully decorated, so much sunlight coming through, definitely a place I'd love to check out in the future! If you're looking to switch up your Tuesday night routine or just looking for a fun date spot, check out Sandtrap and don't forget to step outside for the beautiful views!
