Excellent happy hour, 3 to 6. Burgers sliders were $10 and they are the perfect size. The GOAT is excellent. Beer selection is fabulous, they now have Bissell, Trillium, and several local brews. They serve half pints as well as flights. The outdoor seating is cozy. It's nice to be in downtown Portsmouth but off the beaten track Service is excellent read more

Wonderful people and great beer ! Loved the outside mural. Cheeseburger was delicious and cooked perfectly. Parking was difficult but it was worth it. read more

While in Portsmouth for a work trip, I stopped by Earth Eagle Brewings and was seriously impressed. I ordered the goat burger, which was juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly, and paired it with their Cassowary Lager -- crisp, refreshing, and a great match for the burger. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with a fun, laid-back vibe that makes you want to linger. Friendly staff and great conversation made it even better. A must-visit if you're into craft beer and good food. read more

Fun beer bar off the beaten path in Portsmouth. Good bartenders. Tasty pretzel app that was fresh and delicious. Small outside space as well. Excellent beer selection. read more

Really cute local place with excellent dogs. I had the Astro which was really good- chili, cheese jalapeños but all balanced.

Honestly confused by the high average for this brewery. Maybe I'm spoiled my local breweries in CT and MA but this place was nothing special. Not horrible but after trying 4 beers none of them stood out or made me want to bring something home. The pretzel was fine but overpriced for the size and quality. Also, when we arrived the front entrance and bar area looked deserted - all the chairs were up on the tables and bar top. We walked around the corner outside and saw a small seating area. A little confusing, we weren't sure where to go or what to do. Turns out you just seat yourself and they'll come out to you from the other bar area in back. Service was fine but the long back and forth meant longer than expected wait times just for a beer. Would I go back? Nah, but if you're walking by maybe you'll find a pint you enjoy. read more

Found this little brewery walking around downtown Portsmouth on a rainy day. We had popped into several boutiques to kill time and stay dry, so it was nice to stumble upon a nice watering hole to change things up! My boyfriend and I both got a flight and between the two of us we tried most of the beer on tap. Reasonably priced (I think $12 for 4 beer samples). They had a little of everything and all had a good flavor, there wasn't one that we didn't like. My boyfriend's favorite was the New England Gangsta (IPA) and mine was a sour... I'm the worst and forgot the name but it was a very mild and enjoyable sour that didn't leave you smacking your lips. We didn't try the food, but it all looked good from what was coming out around us. They have a "dog" side of the menu and a "cow" side... I feel like I'd be team hot "dog" if I did get food as those were best looking of all the food coming out! It was a cozy little place with some bar, table and cozy couch/chair seating. Small and intimate. The lady working was super nice and friendly, and checked on us enough but not to the point of annoyance. Loved the service and atmosphere a lot. If I was a local I would definitely frequent this watering hole! So if you are local, not sure what you're doing still reading this review... get your butt off the couch and go quench your thirst here! read more

Review is for beer only. We stopped in this cute place to sit in their cozy beer garden on a nice sunny day and enjoy a beer. Service was great, and the beer was tasty. I liked being able to get a flight of 4, 4 oz beers to taste. Worth a stop if you're in the area. read more

Great spot for a burger and beer flight! I absolutely loved the Brethren Code (white coconut stout). It was light, unique, and not overly sweet. Burger was good and the service was friendly. Only con is trying to find parking but that seemed true for the entire area of downtown Portsmouth (it's a cute town; lots of visitors)! read more

Burgers were great. Jumbo hot dogs bigger than expected but very good. Love the environment inside, warm dive bar feel. Armadillo Danger was great from the tap. read more

Service was slow, food and beer were mediocre. $60 for a hot dog, hamburger, and 2 beers, took a good half hour for the food to come out (it was not busy). read more

A great brewery with some really unique beer options. Small, quaint space inside, and outdoor seating in the summer. Their food is really solid too, especially if you're looking for a simple yet fancy hot dog. Note: their Portsmouth location is closed as of 12/30/24 and they are now solely in Somersworth. read more

We had the opportunity to eat outside. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable about the beers. He even brought water out for the table and the dogs. We enjoyed the beer along with the burgers. Can't wait for another opportunity to go back! read more

Absolutely delicious!! This was perhaps the best hot dog I've ever had, burger was also verrrry tasty! This is a really cozy spot with a lot of room for functions or for an intimate dinner or a fun night out with friends. Tucked away on the hill you'd miss it if you weren't looking. Staff was nice too!! I highly recommend the Toto hotdog. Yum!! Nice tap list too. read more

Beers are great and this longstanding location will unfortunately close in downtown Portsmouth. Food was great, had the burger that is like the Big Mac and was great. The city of Portsmouth needs to correct things and stop driving businesses like this out of town with high rents!! read more

It you are craving a hot dog then this is your spot! They had lots of unusual but good combos to choose from. My favorite was our appetizer- Goldfish. A child hood favorite and it's still a tasty snack. We sat outside which was a nice area tucked away in the parking lot. Our server was nice and attentive. This was a nice spot. The food definitely hit the spot! read more

Great burger, be ready to use a fork and knife. Hot and crispy tots. Attentive staff.

There is no where else I could have a fine glizzy off their expansive hot dog menu, while indulging in some spoken word. There also no where else I've seen in the area with such a glorious hot dog menu. A+ for ambience and A+ for the girth. read more

The service here was too notch! Such a cool place with the nicest people! They have every type of hotdog or burger topping combo you could ever think of! I went a little crazy and tried a hot dog with beet and goat cheese on it and let me tell you it was in the top 3 bed hot dogs I've ever eaten! They also had some really cool beers! Definitely recommend this place! They even had a nice outdoor patio area! read more

Not open during your published open hours. Tuesday afternoon... supposed to be open noon til 9pm.

Misleading signage. Went in for the 2-1 hot dogs at 1:00. Waitress says starts at 3:00. I say sign didn't say that, she says that's the way it is. A responsible business would do 2 things: honor the sign then correct it. They only did the latter so lost my beer business. Silly management. read more

Earth Eagle Tavern - Specials on Menu ad - Breweries Near Me - Portsmouth, New Hampshire

Its a small local brewery. one of only a few in Portsmouth. It hasnt changed much over the years. its a somewhat rundown garage space... but in a good way? a bit dark, a bit dirty... Unfortunately, the beer has not improved over the years. Its borderline average. its frustrating. i've tried year over year and its the same ole' product. most of the beer was fairly flat within 2 minutes of pouring . I think a good example can be had from their website.. which barely talks about beer... certainly no "on Tap" list or references of past beer. maybe they try to make too many styles instead of being great at one or 2? I mean no disrespect. its a great place to stop by for a quick $8 beer. Price are a mystery, as i dont remember seeing them posted anywhere. but if you're looking for quality.. you'll have to walk a couple blocks to the known beer bar. read more

We sat underneath their outdoor shed and enjoyed beers and dogs. Servers were in the weeds but super friendly. Dog friendly outdoor but unfortunately also very kid friendly. read more

Best hotdogs in the northeast. Massive variety of specialty topped dogs, ranging from classic to funky. I had one with beets and goat cheese that literally changed my entire thoughts on hotdogs as a meal. Will be back to try more, and all said and done they are moderately priced. The beer? Meh. Decent selection and taste , just nothing to write home about. Thanks to the craft beer explosion I really need a brewery to do something special to stand out from the crowd. Don't get me wrong, the beer is good, and perfect for washing down a hot dog, but I'd be coming back for the hotdogs, not the brews. read more

This is an unapologetic hipster micro brewery with really well done old-style lagers and ales. They brew a couple of NE IPA's to appease the masses. The burgers and franks are on point as well. Cozy pub atmosphere inside and tables with umbrellas outside. read more

Omg this place had an amazing vibe! Staff was wonderful. There was a wait to be seated but we were offered beverages while waiting. North country cider!!! Food was delicious. They were accommodating to me needing GF. They made my pulled pork sliders into a pulled pork bowl! It was delicious! My friend got a hot dog that he said the relish was out of this world! Even grabbed myself a t-shirt. Will be back! read more

Been here a couple times, small venue, might have to wait depending on the time. Beer definitely has some taste, the coconut stout was definitely one to try! Not your average hotdogs/hamburgers either! Just confused in the price as 6 beers were bought and 3 hot dogs and yet our bill came out to $120? Beers must've been at least $10! read more

Great Rueben sandwich and friendly staff. Several drink specials although we didn't try any for lunch.

Earth Eagle is the first brewery/gastropub I've visited since arriving in this area, and they've set the bar really high for subsequent places! The staffers here were very well informed, helpful, and welcoming; they actively encouraged us to sample whatever brews caught our fancies. While I must confess that I'm not a beer expert of any kind, I was really impressed by the sheer variety and depth of choices available. Fortunately for me, my friend was driving the night of our first visit, so I got to try quite a number of different beers. To recollect a few, I very much enjoyed the Samantha-a sour, the Indian Summer was light and stimulating, the R&R Hefeweizen was very refreshing, and I ulitimately fell in love (at least for that evening) with the Engine Joe coffee porter. The only food I've tried here thus far was a jumbo-sized pretzel; it was hot, fresh, and very tasty! I saw quite a number of other's people's food orders leaving the kitchen and passing by our table; the smells and sights were such that I have no doubt about returning another night for some more beer AND some food :-) Tip: The venue is on the smallish side, but the decor is really attractive - highly recommended!! read more

So glad our good friend took us here. She had discovered this charming spot the night before. What a delightful teeny craft brewery in charming area of Portsmouth. It is in a transformed garage with spunky and funky atmosphere. We loved all 8 of the beers we sampled. Heck, they only had 9 on tap! Why didn't we try them all? Guess we have to go back. Most unique beer had curry flavor. A small sample was good but not sure I would want 8 ounces. IPAs and a stout were really superior beers. We had already had dinner but their food items including a Vermont raclette looked very fine indeed. Lots of cheese options. Cheese and beer: two of my favorite food groups. Down an alley and a little hard to find. Persevere and find it please. Super nice service. Made our night in Portsmouth A plus. read more

Visited this location while walking around Portsmouth last week. There was plenty of outdoor seating and we were greeted quickly. We love to try different beers so we ordered a flight to share along with a pretzel. The pours were a great size, easily shareable, and there were some great options. The pretzel was also large which was great to share. Would definitely visit again in the future. read more

- the flights are full glasses - I was lit up after drinking one flight of 5 - I was more lit after I finished my wife flight of four - I like how you can choose the number of beers you want in your flight - gotta get em all - first come first serve - food looked good - friendly service - there were 8 beers and a guest cider to choose from read more

The beer is mediocre at best. The indoor space is fine. Service is slow. With many excellent breweries in the area, we will not waste our time here. read more

Ok, I'm going to pass on this place. My wife and I stopped by for the first time, today. Immediately was confused by the "empty" space which was made more confusing by the dim lighting. Then, saw the small sign that said come downstairs, we're open. So, we navigated that bit of confusion and went downstairs. Where, we sat ourselves down at a table across from the bar and the bartender. After getting no service, I then went up to the bartender and asked for menus. Went back and sat down and picked out our food choices. But again, no one bothered to come over. Now mind you, there were less than 3 other, small tables with customers. And, quite honestly, the bartender seemed way too frazzled and bedraggled to handle anything more than the hand-full of customers. We seemed to be a burden to her. So, we left. Sorry guys but there's way too many other good choices in Portsmouth to go to rather than take time and effort to try supporting this place. read more

Delightful whole in the wall brewery. Clean, friendly bar keeper, yummy pastrami sandwich with home made slaw. New England Gangsta is lovely! read more

Cool Spot. It's small but don't let that deter you. My wife and I were in town for a recent October weekend. The plans were to drink beers, eat and enjoy the area. We stayed at the Ale House Inn and our Innkeeper recommended Earth Eagle highly. We only had beer (though the menu looked nummers) and it was still nice enough to sit out on in the patio. They had 12 beers on tap so we just got 2 flights of 6 beers and tried them all. Neither of us really like sour beers so those were sort of a waste but the others were very tasty. If we weren't spreading out our day drinking we likely could've parked our arses on that patio for the full afternoon. I would definitely return. read more
