    Beers on tap
    Hannah P.

    A good option for standard burger fare with an excellent view! Bloody Mary for starters was great and a nice treat - followed by a big juicy burger! The side of house chips was a bit over done and smashed into crumbs but still fine. You can't beat the back deck view though which is why we picked this place. Service was good as well. I'd recommend!

    Turkey cranberry grilled sandwich

    Delicious and quick! My turkey cranberry sandwich is so good. And the staff is friendly.

    Parmesan chicken wings

    This place recently opened. clam chowder was good but everything else was terrible. Caesar salad was tasteless, meatloaf was so salty and flooded with gravy that I could not even eat it without having high blood pressure, and hot dog didn't taste like it was good quality meat. Parmesan chicken wings were so burnt, you could not eat it. There does not seem to be any quality control over the food leaving the kitchen. I wasted 100 bucks for this food that we could not eat. Very disappointed.

    A fly.
    Oliver H.

    I had a fly in my coffee, and the response by Downtown Grille Cafe was even worse. Specifically the manager's response. After drinking my entire ice coffee, I noticed something dark at the bottom of my drink. When examining it further, there was an actual fly sitting inside. Immediately, I got into my car to head over to Downtown Grille Cafe and see what they would do. When arriving, it was abysmal. Instead of having the manager speak to me directly, they had a young girl deal with the issue on their behalf. At first she offered me money back for the 1 coffee (I had also bought 3 other coffees & 6 croissants). When arguing that I wanted a refund for the entire order, she proceeded to go back and speak with her manager. Long story short, she made 3 trips to see her manager in the back room while I was there and that same manager never once came out to apologize, hold responsibility, or take any action. Instead, they used this girl working for them as the "messenger" for which I feel bad for as it was not her fault. I understand that things happen and you cannot control everything, but you can control your response to an outcome like that. I'm appalled by the display of cowardliness and lack of empathy from their manager. Terrible!

    Great sign

But this cool, historic tavern is still alive and well! Come show some local support. We are Rhode Islanders, and have been coming up here for almost 40 years, and this place holds a dear, sweet place in our heart. We did not partake in food this time around, but it looked and smelled amazing. The drinks/wine were wonderful. Give them a shot! You won't be disappointed!

I'm going to assume it was the bartender, who was shockingly rude, sarcastic, and disrespectful, to say the very least. Not my first experience with this bartender either. The bartender's and server's at Wolfe's Tavern are absolutely horrible. They have reprehensible attitudes and are colossally rude to customers. I asked for a simple clarification of their operating hours. This man was indignant and impolite, calling me out for bringing a discrepancy to his attention!! Uh..what?! I've been a resident of Wolfeboro, NH, for 70 years. This establishment once stood as the landmark for elegant dining, professional and competent administration and staff, and was respected throughout the Lakes Region. You once had an Executive Chef named "Hoke" many, many years ago...a quintessential gentleman with great culinary expertise, who frequently would come out of the kitchen, go table to table, introduce himself to all the patrons, and ask them if their meals were up to their liking. This man "made" The Wolfeboro Inn, almost singlehandedly. When he resigned because of a difficulty with management, the place plummeted...nearly overnight. Fast forward to August, 2025, and it is now worse than ever. I'd recommend Dunkin' Donuts on Center Street, or The Bay Diner on Main ahead of here. It's no wonder today's bartender refused to give his first name...no doubt fearful of this review(!) or one in The Granite State News, aka "The Grunter."
