    Clam strip plate

    Stopped for the first time and got the clam strip plate as a throw back to my favorite snack at the ice cream stop I worked at when I was 14. They were- salty, briny, yummy - perfectly crisp and the breading wasn't too heavy. The fries were on point as well, crispy and hot. The basket was overflowing so much so that when I sat them on the passenger seat the car recognized the weight and wanted a seatbelt to be put on... I don't do coleslaw, tartar, or ketchup so I'll have to ask them to hold those next time so they're not wasted but definitely great quality and quantity for the price. Cute, old school spot with indoor and outdoor seating. Food was done quickly, staff was friendly, no complaints. Will be back!

    Menu as of 10.12.25

    10.12.25 Had the half and half plate with belly clams and scallops for $29.42. Definitely some of the best clams and scallops around. Golden brown and not overcooked like I've experienced at other area restaurants. The clam bellies were medium to large and quite good. The scallops were about an inch and a half in diameter. Kind of pricey but seems to be the going rate in New Hampshire.

    Lobster roll with clam chowder

    We would definitely come back. Prices are fair for the quality and if you're having a craving for lobster rolls but don't wanna break the bank, they know what they're doing up here. Service is fine. You order, sit down, and come pick it up when they call your number. A lot of outside seating as well but it's always packed every time we go. Usually pretty loud, family friendly, and seems that some ppl will stop and order outside just to get some ice cream.

    Half and half clam belly and scallops 33 bucks. Not to bad
    Stephen W.

    Back again only had to wait about 10 15 mins the food was absolutely fresh delicious and you can definitely share this. I would recommend sharing the seafood platter that comes with a big piece of haddock, french fries full belly, clams, scallops and five shrimp. I did eat a lot of it, and I took the rest back to my hotel the service is always hot a lot better than most places, the place that make sure tables are clean and it's always busy, but the portion sizes are excellent as well as you can see from some of the pictures of the fisherman's combo I paid $46 market price with a drink so that's not bad. Definitely will come back again

    Scallops and whole belly clams
    Rick T.

    Another trip to NH and another trip for fried seafood. Straight from the airport to here. The full belly clams hit the spot. Had 8 people in our party for lunch. No waiting, place was empty. Everyone's food was awesome. The ice cream was a big hit. The "small cone" will satisfy all.

    Clams are excellent, but there are very few in comparison to Cremeland for the same price..and not a big fan of their French fries... service is fine.

    Our family of 4 had each mixed feelings about this place…read more It was clean. The cakes in the dessert case were pretty. Seated right away. Waitress was nice enough, but a bit distracted and we had to repeat our order a couple of times. Wait seemed long. We all liked aspects of their food, but didn't like others. The hash browns had zero flavor/seasoning and were a bit soggy. They were the base of my meal, so it was very disappointing. The kielbasa in it was browned nicely, but didn't make up for it. My husband's omelette oddly had a Kraft single melted on the top of it. C'mon. The "pan potatoes" were hard, dry, and uniform, clearly frozen. Again, not a lot of seasoning. Homefries should shine in a breakfast meal! Chili in the omelette tasted suspiciously like Hormel in a can. He did enjoy the biscuit and gravy, and that's hard to make happen. My daughter thought the sourdough was good. It was over $100.00 for our meal, the prices were a little steep, especially for what they were - average breakfast food, at best. I feel bad saying that, but there didn't seem to be a lot of pride in the food.

Sometimes the best meals come from the spots that aren't trying to impress you with décor but win you over with heart and consistency. I stopped in one evening just as a snowstorm was starting. The staff greeted me warmly, and the service had that genuine, small-town friendliness that's hard to fake. I ordered the cheesesteak, and it absolutely hit the mark. It came out hot, fresh, and generously filled, with the kind of flavor that tells you they've been making this for a long time--and making it well. I enjoyed it so much that I came back the very next day. That alone should say something. When a place makes you want a repeat visit within 24 hours, you know they're doing something right. If you're in the area, don't overlook this gem. It's the kind of spot that reminds you why simple, well-made, comfort food served with kindness will always stand the test of time. Highly recommended.

While that may appeal to some customers, it created an extremely loud environment that felt more like a bar than a restaurant. Between the amplified music, announcements, and crowd participation, it was difficult to have a normal conversation at our table. For diners looking for a quieter meal, it's worth knowing that Wednesday nights may not be the best time to visit. The service was friendly and attentive throughout the evening, and most of the food was good. We ordered the Caprese Salad, Chicken Bacon Ranch Flatbread, Grilled Chicken Pesto, and a Mango Poke Bowl. I understand there was a recent menu change, which is why my daughter decided to try the poke bowl. Unfortunately, while the ingredients seemed fresh, she felt the sauce didn't complement the dish well and threw off the overall flavor. Given the $26 price tag, that was disappointing. The pricing was another area that stood out. Most of the menu is on the higher end of casual dining, but what really caught my attention was the $5.99 charge for a bottle of San Pellegrino. Restaurant markups are expected, but nearly six dollars for bottled sparkling water felt excessive. Overall, Dreo has friendly service and some solid food options, but the combination of premium pricing, the disappointing poke bowl, and the very loud trivia-night atmosphere made it difficult to fully enjoy the experience. I would consider returning on a quieter night, but I think customers should be made more aware of how loud trivia nights can be before being seated.

    Located inside Revo Casino Manchester, Rebels is a full service restaurant and bar serving pub fare…read moreand libations, formerly Filotomo. Rebels also has other locations around NH inside other Revo Casino locations in Dover, Keene, Lebanon, and Conway. They offer great daily specials here including $5 handhelds (12-3pm), $3 drafts (4-7pm) and 25 percent off food. I've been to the Rebels in Dover several times and that location has also pretty good street tacos there. This location still has the same feel as Filotomo which has a full service bar with seating and table seating along the walls. There are flatscreen TVs, scratch tickets machine, and Keno here. Anyways, I stopped by Rebels in Manchester for dinner recently. The bartender gave me a menu to look at and I got a complementary Revo bottled water. The food menu here offers a selection of appetizers, sandwiches, burgers, hot dogs, salads, chowder, flatbread pizzas, main entrees (steak, ribs, pork, pasta, seafood, chicken tenders, beef prime rib), and desserts, same food as the other locations. Much of the Greek Italian American menu of the former Filotomo, is now at Fotia down the street. The prices seem fair here. The bar has 16 draft beers, bottle/can beers, wine, liquor and cocktails. I ordered the Birria Pizza ($11 plus tax) and the Clam Baked Cod ($16 plus tax), both coming out to me at the same time in about 12 minutes. The Birria Pizza flatbread was topped with soft spiced beef, caramelized onions & melted cheese on top of a firm crunchy dry crust, consome dipping broth on the side. The Clam Baked Cod was comprised of a soft baked cod filet with herb seasoned breadcrumb topped with Boston clam chowder, couscous, red onions, roasted red bell pepper, tomatoes, zucchini, mushroom, garlic. I finished both food items, as I was all set. The check was presented which came out to $21.97 with tax, after discount, and before tip. Overall, another pretty good meal at Rebels and attentive service at the bar. I will continue to eat at Rebels whenever I'm already at Revo Casino and DraftKings Sportsbook.

    There's an up charge for fries, which I don't mind paying. but to give me 11 1/2 fries is wild.read more

Finding the parking lot? Easy.Finding the actual bar & grill? A full-blown scavenger hunt. At night there are ZERO lights, dark signage, and my only landmark was, "Ah yes... follow the sacred Guinness imagery on the front doors like a slightly tipsy pilgrim seeking barley and salvation." During daylight I'm sure it's obvious, but at night (especially in rain or snow) you're basically navigating by faith, GPS betrayal, and hopeful vibes. Staff was attentive, relaxed, and perfectly matched the laid-back local bar & grill energy. The kind of place where regulars probably have "their chair". I didn't catch our waitress's name, but she fully understood the assignment -- group of friends, multiple drinks, laughter escalating in volume -- we felt welcomed, never rushed, and were allowed to spiral socially at our own pace. It was trivia night (we did not participate because our confidence exceeds our actual trivia knowledge), but surrounding tables were living their competitive lives. The menu is... honestly a conversation starter. It's giving jack-of-all-trades comfort food chaos. Where else are you seeing shepherd's pie egg rolls casually coexisting with liver and onions like they negotiated a diplomatic treaty at the United Nations of Comfort Food? Naturally, curiosity and poor impulse control won, and the table ordered the shepherd's pie egg rolls. Because -- science. Drinks: * Beer drinkers were happy -- solid selection, zero complaints. Glasses remained suspiciously empty which tells me everything I need to know.* I ordered a French Martini which immediately turned into the community sample martini. Consensus: enjoyed by others. Personally? Ce n'est pas mon préféré. Growth is knowing when a martini is not your soulmate. C'est la vie! Food: * A couple of us ordered the pot pie -- good temperature, solid comfort vibes, but the crust was thin and a little chewy instead of crispy, flaky and and emotionally supportive. Slight emotional letdown because crispy crust is possibly a love language. * I'm normally anti-fish taco, but a friend loved them. I tried a bite and will admit... flaky, fresh, and not oily at all. Respect where respect is due. Overall:Comfortable local hangout energy, friendly service, interesting menu, but the nighttime invisibility cloak on the building nearly had me questioning my GPS and my eyesight and whether I had accidentally entered a secret speakeasy that requires password authentication. Would go back -- now that I know I'm looking for Guinness signs like they're ancient runes safely guiding me toward carbs and cocktails!

The lunch/dinner menu offers a selection of appetizers, salads, sandwiches, paninis, burgers, flatbreads, pizzas, chicken entrees, pasta, and seafood.

The prices seem fair and they offer happy hour 3-5pm. I stopped by Big Dog Pub for dinner recently during the week. I was greeted and told I could sit at any open table I'd like. The seating at the bar was busy, so I sat at an open metal table next to the bar. The server brought over a menu to look over. I decided on the Fish & Chips special ($16 plus tax) and the Sweet Sausage Sautee ($15 plus tax). Both entrees came out together in 17 minutes. The portions were good on both. The fish & chips were very hot, crispy coating on the outside, tartar sauce on the side. The hand cut fries were firm and tasty. The shredded creamy cole slaw was sweet & tangy. The sautee dish had a mix of al dente cavatappi pasta tossed in a light cream tomato sauce with peppers, onions, small sausage bits and shaved parmesan cheese. I managed to finish both entrees and got the check with Toast QR code which was $33.64 with tax and before tip. The internet is very weak in this part of Deerfield, so had to pay the normal way. Overall, I enjoyed a great filling meal at Big Dog Pub. I will have to return here for breakfast!
