Wow! Great experience! Appetizers are awesome, we had the pretzel and bao. There were so many apps we were interested in, we think we may make a meal out of several next time to try them all. I had a brisket grilled cheese with fig. It was really very tasty. My boyfriend had the fried chicken sandwich. It was good, though he felt it was missing something. He would get something else next time (the menu had a lot we were interested in). The fries are awesome - we had the truffle and curry fries. Wait service was excellent. We like that they had parking behind the building. Prices are about $18 up pp on average which is maybe a little high but we discussed that we would rather pay a few bucks more for the quality. read more

My wife and I were out and about to find a LabCorp and decided to stop for lunch. We found the spot on Yelp, so very happy we did! Little did we know that there was a 25% off the entire bill on Thursdays if you pay for cash! [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat in the lounge watching people and some of the World Cup game.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We opened up with adult beverages and made our meal order. I decided on a Maine Lunch to wash down my Blackened Shrimp Cobb Salad while my wife ordered a Pinot Grigio for her Hancock pizza and garlic Parmesan fries. Our food came out relatively fast and was absolutely amazingly. Good! The Cobb salad was huge and delicious! So many wonderful taste treats! My wife's pizza was perfect! And we truly enjoyed the garlic Parmesan fries! Our waitress was pretty good, we only looked for her a couple of times during our visit, but we did leave her an excess for a tip seeing we had 25% off the bill! If we're back in the area, we will certainly stop in. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself was well kept with a lovely decor, and most importantly the bathrooms were clean![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Came on a Thursday. Thursday's are famously their "Cash is King" night where if you pay cash you get 20% off. It was slammed. Two of us were told 25-30 minute wait. We were sat in just 10 minutes. Even though they were busy food came out super fast. It was delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A little loud in the restaurant but not too bad.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We had an excellent meal on a Saturday night at Revolution Taproom and Grill. We had 5:45 PM reservations as we were trying to get to a show at the Opera House at 7:30, and the timing was excellent. The potstickers were well prepared, and the sauce was delicious. Chicken Thai Lettuce Wraps on the daily specials list, outstanding as well. Fresh butter lettuce, really well seasoned accompaniments. The pizza, as always, was delicious. We had the Madison. The service was stellar, Rachel did a great job, right from the wine service through dessert. All of the staff seemed so happy to do their jobs, pleasant, smiling, hustling. I highly recommend Revolution. Check out their happy hour! read more

Party of 5 at 4pm on a Friday in late March. $6 apps: Hummus was so good Spinach dip was loved by all Fried greenbeans tempura with chili dipping sauce was also really good Wine selections were reasonable. Meals: Burger with the fried egg - would totally get it again Burger with bacon - definitely loved it Flatbread formaggio - really great dough and good serving size The pizza! Out of this world good. Fresh mozzarella. Amazing sauce. Garlic parm crust was so worth it. And the truffle fries. Absolutely awesome. Crème brûlée for a birthday dessert - well liked by all. A flavorful meal. Service: Casey our server was outstanding. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was clean, tables were comfortable to sit at, we had a great experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Looking forward to our next visit. read more

You MUST try the lo mein with short ribs! The ribs are shredded with a deep flavor to die for. Our first visit but not our last! The clam chowder is excellent along with their mixed drinks from the bar. The waitress Casey was very fast friendly and professional. She suggested the rice crispy French toast dessert and for that I tipped her extra. I've been in town for a month's visit and this is the best place I've eaten. [[HIGHLIGHT]]And its ambiance is fantastic! You can even eat outside with lights and fire lamps. Plus a live guitarist. It was awesome.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Upstairs had a bar and lounge area along two pool tables, a real dart board area along with TVs over the bar area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's like a one stop shop depending on your mood! This was my best experience to date. You should give this place a try. read more

This was the first time we have been here and we can't wait to return. I can't believe we didn't find this place sooner. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere and ambiance were great! Loved the patriotic/ historic vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our sever Dave was amazing and helped us pick really great choices on the broad menu. I loved the spicy noodle dish. I asked for extra spicy and they delivered. All of the apps were great and we cannot wait to go back and try more things. This is a must try!! read more

Dropped in here the other night for the first time since my last review, 8 years ago. I'm pretty sure we got the same exact server or we just have terrible luck, because she made the comment at the end of the night when we asked for our check "good, I want to go home." I understand we were there late, but it wasn't closing time, was she mad we didn't order food? She told us the kitchen was closing as soon as we sat down. We each had a drink and a crème brûlée. The drinks were ok, nothing to rave about. I tried the dessert, I didn't love it, but my other half thought it was to die for. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It wasn't terribly busy, but as the night went on, more and more people(younger crowd) filed in, presumably from other bars that close down earlier than the Rev.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Someday I'd like to try their food, there's quite a few things on the menu that sound good. But for now, my review is solely based on service and drinks. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food, service and atmosphere![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We met cousins for dinner and had two delicious appetizers (korean buns, spinach dip) and rubbery chicken fingers, so skip those. For dinner, I had blackened shrimp cobb salad, a winner, and everyone else had pizzas (1 Hancock and 1 cheese) which they said were good. Our waiter looked like Stanley Tucci, complete with the glasses, so that was a bonus. read more

I came with a group of friends (6 of us total) on a Friday night at 7pm. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were seated promptly outside. It was the perfect September evening so we were excited to be able to enjoy the outside area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Hancock pizza we ordered for the table was the first to come out since that is prepared in the wood fired oven. The Neapolitan style had a super thin crust and beautiful char. We loved that they use the pepperonis that turn into lil cups when cooked. I was able to also try the Thai chicken tenders (SO tender and delicious), the Brussel sprouts (a lil greasy, could have been crispier but I liked the addition of the almonds for texture, otherwise they would have been just too soft), and the Korean pork bao buns (the bun was a lil dry/could have been softer). For my main dish, I ordered the spicy barrel burger. The patty was perfectly cooked (medium) but the bun was different/not like than other potato buns I've had (which was a lil disappointing). They also have Revolution Fries ($1 more, comes with cajun aioli), Hipster Fries ($2 cajun style), Parm fries ($2 with parm and garlic), and truffle fries ($3 truffle oil). I asked if they could add parm + garlic to the truffle, which since I was paying the most to upgrade to the truffle fries, you'd think this could be done, but the server said no. I tried a friend's parm fries and wish I had gone with those instead. Our group had a great time. When we got the bill, we felt the value for money was really good, and the food had come out pretty quickly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The live music and lighting was perfect outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking is free and plentiful in downtown Rochester so we would consider coming back again! It's super cool how the menu has Asian influenced menu items - love the variety. read more

My wife and I decided to brave the downtown afternoon traffic and have a late lunch at Revolution Taproom. Love the fact they give you 20% off for cash on Thursday! But we also find that the staff is very friendly and service is fast. We started with the IPA battered chicken tenders with the Thai sweet chili sauce. Small order gives three nice sized pieces. For the main dishes I ordered the Hancock pizza with pepperoni, homemade mozzarella and honey drizzle. My wife loves the smoked salmon BLT with the regular fries. The sandwich and the pizza were delicious but the fries were a bit on the plain side. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Sitting near the bar was a nice quiet spot for lunch with good ambience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waitress was very friendly and attentive as always. Seems this could be a regular thing for us! read more

We knew we had found a gem when the people walking out testified to how delicious the food was. And from the moment we were greeted the service was terrific. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant has a very comfortable vibe with touches of sophistication that aren't pretentious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Both the food and beer menus looked to be curated with love. We had the Mediterranean Tasting to start. It was delicious! Then followed that with the smoked salmon BLT and a burger which were both great. The hostess was very attentive and told us about the restaurant which boasts a 5 star chef who has cooked for every president from Nixon to Obama as well as culinary superstars Anthony Bourdain's and Emeril. After retiring to Maine he decided he still wanted to use his culinary expertise and was welcome with open arms at the Revolution. Highly recommend! read more

Great food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Loved the setup & design inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will be back on our trips home from Bartlett, NH!

Had lunch here earlier this week with a work peer/manufacturer. Nicely remodeled, and well done interior Menu provided lots of choices. I had a salad with shrimp, my work partner had the burger and she claimed it was the best burger she's ever eaten. Waitress was a attentive and came back several times to check on us. Need to come back after 4 PM and try out some of their beers. read more

I stopped by here one night recently as I was on a beer discovery tour. Parking was on the street which I was able to deal with no problem. I am not a good paralel parker so luckily I found a double sized spot for my truck. I walked in and bellied up to the bar. The server was very prompt and nice as well as she had a great understanding of the beers. The menu was vast and I got a flight of six that made me very happy. I did not try the food as I had just eaten, but the prices seemed very high to me. If I am in Rochester again I will certainly stop in for a beer but thats about it. read more

Revolution Taproom & Grill - Gastropubs Near Me - Rochester, New Hampshire

Stopped here on the way home from XC skiing at Gunstock. We sat at the bar and happened to be there when the Christmas parade was going by so we had a great viewing spot. The guy bartender was excellent, great service and very personable. We got wings, salad and happened to hit it right as Sundays the flatbreads are half price. It was very good; thin crust, cooked perfect and very flavorful. I'd def go back when in the area again. read more

Food was above average. The hostess, with pink or blue hair (can't remember, but it was "don't do it on my time" hair) was rude to the Nth power. When I asked for a different table then she led us too, she gave me an attitude that I will never forget. To the owners: get a hostess who is cheerful, smiles and makes nice. I'm scared to return after dealing with that witch. read more

Went here with family for a weekday lunch and was pleasantly surprised! It was nice inside with a large bar with a nice separation from the dining area. Server was very nice. Ribs were juicy and tasty, shrimp Cobb salad was large without being ridiculous and the pizza was nice and thin with no shortage of toppings. I'll keep this in mind for next time! read more

The couple next to us commented on how attentive he was! Thank you JT you were awesome! read more

Still an 5-star restaurant. I'm lucky as hell to have a place this great in my hometown. Lunch today was a superb take on Mexican street corn, and a delicious bison/ Duckfat burger, with curry fries and a couple of Rogue Dead Guys. Bison can by dry but this one was juicy and delectable. We sat outside and brought our dog, the server took great care of us. read more

Not much for to choose from on their menu but what they did offer was quite tasty. Just read the small print...shows fries for $2-4 as an up charge. Didn't realize it only applied to sandwiches. We got "hipster" fries which cost $7. I opt d for IPA battered. Chicken tenders with sweet chili sauce from the appetizer section. It was 4 very tender tenders ($13) that were a good size. The other person in my party ordered a daily special of artisan romaine "wedge" salad for $18. It consisted of a small romaine bunch, feta cheese, cherry tomatoes and pickled red onions. read more

Good vibes and good drinks. This is a gastropub that leans toward Asian flavors The appetizers that we ordered were great: dumplings and tempura green beans. The rest of the food was good, but nothing great or anything that makes me think that I HAVE to come back. Their specialty cocktails were great though, and they have a great presentation. Service is great, all the staff was very nice and polite. If I were to come back, I would just get drinks and appetizers. read more

Great spot that my partner and I stumbled upon for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. Their local tap selection was incredible with something for everyone. We got the sprouts for an appetizer which was delivered quickly in a large portion (we dug in too fast to take pictures) and my only gripe is that they were browned and crispy on the outside but hard / slightly undercooked on the inside. My partner got the meatball sandwich and said it was easily the best meatball sandwich he's ever had. I got the Patrick Henry which was also delicious. The service was lightning fast, my pizza came literally 5 min after ordering. With so many interesting menu items, we will be certainly be returning on our future trips home from New Hampshire. read more

Super nice staff. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great space and lots of terrific menu choices.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Perfect lunch stop on our way north

I was taking my forever friend to a production at the Rochester Opera House and met before at the RTG. Atmosphere, on point. If you're a bar lover, excellent place to sit and just 'be'. I was torn between a Bloody Mary and one of their specialty cocktails and the gorgeous bartender said, 'You can have a Bloody anywhere soooooo...'. I loved that!'. We didn't eat but the food looked amazing. Everywhere from artisan pizzas to platefuls of Sunday worthy meals. So worth the stop!!!! read more

This quickly became one of our favorite GastroPubs we have been to. Located on North Main Street is this great gastropub. In the warmer months you can dine inside or out. We loved the vibe of the outside and sat out there. They had a great selection of beers and cocktails. For food my daughter got a burger, I got the Falafel Street Wrap with fries and aioli dipping sauce, which was so good. My husband got a smoked salmon and avocado sandwich with truffle fries that he raves about. Our daughter got a burger, which she enjoyed. Our waitress was friendly. Overall we all loved our food and will be going back next time we are in the area read more
