    The cornbread mmmmm. It was more like desert than an appetizer.
    Mallory S.

    Took hubby here for our anniversary. The food was reasonably priced and amazing. We got the cornbread app omg that was amazing.. The food portions are big as well.. The only complaint would be that my husbanda burger bun was a bit more toasted... My Ruben was absolutely delicious.. Would highly recommend it.

    Pulled pork
    Claudine R.

    Stopped by for a quick bite to eat on our way to Maine... service was quick and friendly.. restaurant wasn't busy at 8pm. Food was average, had medium rare steak tips, well-seasoned and perfectly cooked, sides were so so. BF had pulled pork, and said it was okay. It's nothing special for food but it'll satisfy you without breaking the bank.

    Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap with Tater Tots
    Barbara H.

    I ordered the chicken Caesar Salad Wrap with tater tots. It was very good. Service was great. No issues

    Pretzels, cheese dip and a beer!!!   Yes

    Not sure why low on the review scale??? We were staying the night in town and the Tavern was recommended. We sat at the bar. Service was great Beer was great!! Ordered pretzel bites and cheese. Cheese had a good taste, I like the pretzels softer, but tasted good. Ordered chicken tender salad and fish and chips Tenders great Fish fantastic Flaky light crust Highly suggest the Tavern!!

    Stop by for family dinner

    See all

    I was not impressed. The service as good, but the food is over-rated, both the restaurant and the butcher shop!

    Muddy River Smokehouse - Muddy River Smokehouse is now Portside Seafoods!

    Muddy River Smokehouse is now Portside Seafoods. There's a new logo, the interior is supposedly…read moredifferent, and a new menu is taped to the window. We looked at it today and I think the menu looks really touristy, sort of like Weathervane or Newick's. Lots of fried seafood platters, and not much that seems interesting or creative, but maybe there's a page of specials that isn't in the window. This could be a good move for the owners - summer's coming and in Portsmouth, that's tourist season. Tourists come to Portsmouth and say things like "I'm on the ocean, I want seafood." Portsmouth isn't on the ocean but that's okay, whatever makes the tourists happy. I look forward to trying Portside Seafoods and I hope it's surprisingly interesting and fun. Quick edit (7/10/10): Portside Seafoods was open for a month or two, was sold, and is now under renovation. Again.

    "I do not want a pickle ... I just wanna ride my motorsickle."…read more Dropped in with my old man and my brother and sister-in-law for some brew and some hot food. Three inches of snow had fallen in the last four hours; cars' tires were spinning a bit, people were slippin and slidin on the slick of the downtrodden snow on the sidewalks, and a general white-ness filled the air and the sky. You could see the cold. Which is why, of course, that I was in desperate need for fried pickles. Mmm-mmm. Pickle chips doused in batter and fried to a deep delicious golden brown with Texas tartar sauce and buffalo wing dip. Tasty. There's a good selection of beers in this joint and, to my delight, the left coast was represented with Anchor Steam and Sierra Nevada. I opted for a Smutty Nose Pale Ale with my pickles. The pulled pork quesadillas were tender and tasty with a sweet, tangy BBQ sauce and pepper jack with a huge dollop of sour cream on the side. My only gripe was that they were served on a thin piece of butcher paper that, upon getting more and more damp in the process of eating the damn thing, would come off in pieces and inevitably get ingested with the rest of the forkful. %DV of Wood Pulp? 100! Apparently there's a FREAKIN' MASSIVE platter of orgiastic proportions called THE SQUEALER. I can't say that I'd ever try to partake in this, but essentially it's a veritable shitload of pork on a plate and you gotta eat it ALL in an hour. If you're able to complete this formidable task, you get it free. A line of photographs by the front door shows some people who had accomplished the feat and others who had not. What was amusing to me was how many big, fat guys wearing baseball hats failed, and how many cute young women emerged victorious. Yay, you go, girl! Enough. Good place, pleasant atmosphere, good food. Pass me those damn fried pickles, please.
