This cute little restaurant packs a punch. The sandwiches and fries were delicious said everyone who had one. The salads with chicken were so fresh. The pizza was different and also delicious. The servers were great, attentive without being annoyingly so. Would highly recommend. read more

Went yesterday for the first time and it was AMAZING! Fantastic cocktails, super fresh ingredients, expansive menu and outstanding service. read more

The Orchard Grille at Applecrest Farm - Great cocktails - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hampton Falls, New Hampshire

I meet a friend for lunch periodically midway between Waltham, MA and Portland, ME. She found this lovely farmstand-with-a-restaurant. The dining room is off the grocery store portion of the facility, but quite pleasant. A casual vibe, with a fireplace near where we were sitting which was perfect on the rainy day we visited. The server was prompt, courteous and helpful. We were seduced by the drink of the day, a $10 Mai Tai, which did not disappoint. I had a corned beef hash Reuben with fries, and she had a grilled cheese sandwich. We each were well satisfied with our choices. I love a good Reuben and was curious as to how has instead of sliced corned beef would do, and it did just fine, the sandwich perfectly toasted and not so much stuff in the sandwich that it was hard to eat. Of course it was too much for one sitting so I brought mine home and the sandwich did not suffer for an oven re-heat the next day. After lunch we wandered through the grocery store and I brought home a cranberry apple scone that was perfect for breakfast the next day. read more

I really enjoyed dinner here. I got a brick oven pizza with pepperoni, which was fantastic -- great crust! Also had a great margarita. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the beautiful farmland. Service was super friendly. We'll need to come back here again, especially since the cute attached market was closed by the time we got here, and it looks like a cool place to shop! read more

Lunch here was phenomenal! We've been here several times for family lunches, and it's always very good. Michael and Lily were excellent, they were so friendly, attentive and kind. We loved the truffle fries, the chicken piccata was delish! Everything here was great! read more

Charming ambience with a real fireplace a beautiful view of the orchard Burger was cooked perfectly my husband had haddock chowder and enjoyed it Had a cider sangria. Tasted like Autumn Will go back !! read more

Can't even give it a star rating as we went there on a Sunday at 245pm as their Sunday hours said 9-3pm. We understand that we were there very close to closing time but the restaurant was closed. When asked about their Sunday hours they said they are open until 3pm on Sundays but were just closed. It is bad business practice to have hours posted and not be seating up through those hours. This is not the first time we have tried to visit this establishment to find that they were closed early despite the posted hours saying differently. read more

The food was fresh and delicious. We had fried oysters to start, these melted in your mouth and it was a large order. Next, I had the baked haddock with risotto. This portion was big enough for 2 meals. The fish was so nicely done and the risotto was cooked very nicely it was served with grilled broccolini. My husband had the mushroom, pasta and shrimp dish. This too was absolutely filled with flavor. I would highly recommend this restaurant. The service was impeccable and efficient. The ambience is pleasant and cozy. Reservations are highly recommended. read more

We stopped for Sunday brunch which we did a few years ago when we were in the area. It is a bustling place with kids and adults for their harvest season. We were seated on the patio with a great view all the activities. Erin was our server and was great. Food was pretty good, but one order came out wrong. They fixed it immediately. They have music on Sundays and maybe other days that started at 11 just as we were leaving. read more

Went for Valentine's Day dinner. Waited 25 mins for an appetizer order of chicken tenders. Staff was weird when we asked about the most ordered items on the menu. We left & went to Wok the Wok for dinner. Never again. read more

It's located on a farm, with a farmer's market/store, goat pens, ice cream stand, and pick-your-own seasonal fruit fields. You can sit inside with a rustic fire-placed setting or outside on their lighted slate patio. The food and service were both excellent. We shared a beet and goat cheese salad with/walnuts, and had steak tips and chicken forestiere as our entries. See pics. Both were perfect! read more

Such a cute place with great food! We happened upon this place while apple picking, and were pleasantly surprised- the food is delish, the menu has a lot of great options, and there's outdoor seating overlooking the orchard. My favorite was the pulled pork sandwich and the apple cider sangria, perfect for a seasonal lunch! The harvest pizza and the meatloaf sandwich were also pretty great. We came in for lunch on a weekend and there was no wait. My only complaint was how cold it was inside, I kept my coat on while eating to stay warm. Other than that, the service was kind and prompt, and we had a great meal! read more

Wow. Daytrip from Boston. 3rd time here. Consistently great food; will definitely return. read more

What a nice surprise! We like to try new places every time we go out. We chose this abs were not disappointed! The salads were great, fresh with interesting ingredients. Asparagus Caesar and a delicata squash salad. Then onto the arancini special and the Brussels which were delicious. Lastly we had soft tacos. Also super fresh and yummy. Everything was extremely reasonably priced, staff was great, place was clean and inviting. Highly recommended!!! read more

I've been eating here for years and I've never been disappointed. The staff are friendly and on top of things. The atmosphere is amazing whether you're outside in view of the rolling orchards, or inside by the fire. The food is excellent and the menu changed regularly. Make a reservation, though! read more

We were treated to an amazing tuna dish prepared family style for this lively crew earlier this week. Jeff is a really gifted chef. The flavors and presentation were creative and delicious. A nice light touch with a delicate fish. Cathy and the entire staff made our evening special with their attentive and welcoming service. We were initially disappointed that the weather kept us from enjoying the patio but it was cozy and pleasant inside. Such a hidden treasure in Hampton Falls. read more

We always try the restaurant here because we like the farm setting, and once upon a time, it was a great brunch spot. The staff is friendly and service is fine. Sitting by the fire is nice, but then you're listening to a Verizon Wireless commercial. A $5 "latte" in reality is burned tasting coffee in a tiny cup. The $15 Greek yogurt parfait is two tablespoons of yoghurt sprinkled with granola with overripe banana and berries. The everything bagel is dry and tasteless, especially since it's grilled instead of toasted. After paying $50 for this, I'm afraid we're going to have to move on. read more

we used to dine at applecrest restaurant frequently back in the day.. then they closed and reopened with the promise that the food was going to get better... Sadly our recent visit proved otherwise... As good as the market is the restaurant is equally as poor!.. it starts with the hostess (a middle aged woman)at the front who is anything but hospitable ..doesnt say hello just takes you to your table, dumps you off and when you say thank you she doesn't respond you're welcome.ever..it was shocking she is the greeter when she does nothing to make one feel greeted... there is only one waitress doing everything and so service is very slow and all this would be fine if the food was actually good... But it was very poor.. the menu is limited and what they do have tastes more like something you would get at the local Chuck E. Cheese... Neither one of us finished our food..both of us decided we would never come back again because this place has gone from bad to worse.. which is a real shame because it's a beautiful view and we had high hopes..time to close again! read more

Third time there for dinner on the patio and third time disappointment to see our favorite band play. Twenty minutes from receiving a menu to a server finally showing up for our drink order. Chicken tenders were over-cooked to a hard, coating blackened in spots. Haddock sandwich was a thin piece of fish surrounded in a too thick spongy batter reminding me of a really really bad Chinese chicken finger. Left most of the meal after a few bites. Frying oil tasted old. On the bright side, my companions enjoyed their vegetarian pizza. read more

Unbelievibly great atmosphere and food. What a hidden gem !! Service was exceptional and great selections from drinks to entrees made it great. Headed back for the brunch with live music and was also told that live music on Friday night!! Hampton Falk's is lucky to have this place... read more

We went for my 4 year old daughter's birthday. long story short: there's major issues here. We waited for an hour and a half and were never seated then left. poor kid was crying and was so patient for breakfast. Don't go here - the hostess and staff didn't care and honestly were super rude. We understand that everyone is short staffed but when family's have little babies you can't just keep them waiting for that long! should be ashamed of yourselves read more

Great views. Peaceful location. Excellent food and service. Had the Korean tacos and the French fries. Outstanding

My party of 4 was double charged after having brunch there. No response was received after several messages left to management to rectify the issue. Finally after over 2 weeks the charges were reversed. No explanation or apology were ever received. I will not be dining here again. read more

This place is horrible! Slow service with super rude wait staff! The food was not cooked properly and tasted old, not to mention the prices are super high for what they offer. Will never go here again, I advise you not to either. read more

So grateful to have a restaurant back at the farm. It was brave of them to open in winter! We've gone several times since they're right down the road. The food is delicious- love the shrimp po'boy. It's a great little dining room with friendly service. The food is a step above - neighbors, please go! read more

We came today for Applecrest farms (fall festivities) and planned on eating at Orchard Grille as it looked like a nice little restaurant. There were lots of empty picnic benches in the back and being our first time, we thought it was a "seat yourself" place. The hostess/waitress stormed over to us and told us in a rather harsh tone "You cannot sit here, it is for customers only!". We informed her that we were here to eat. She then proceeded to say "It is reservation only, you will need to make a reservation"! We apologized saying that we did not know this as it was our first time eating at Orchard Grille and would be happy to make a reservation. We asked when her next available time would be and again very rudely said "It won't be for awhile, I have a party of 14 on the way". She took down our name and number (never asking how many were in our party) and said she would call when a table was available. We never received that call. Not a good first impression at all. Even if it were a 4 star restaurant, the customer service was beyond salvageable for our return. Never ate there, never will. read more

Had Saturday dinner and Sunday brunch. Both were excellent. Great food and drinks, wonderful atmosphere both inside and on the outdoor patio. Service was outstanding and everyone was very friendly. Highly recommend! read more

Went for brunch and the entrees were good (great hollandaise on the benedict), but the roasted potatoes were not edible. They were overseasoned with a very pungent flavor that was overpowering. The service was a bit uneven, the Server was disorganized. Great setting in the orchard. read more

Had brunch there today. Disappointed. No salads or vegetable options on the menu - not one. If you are a vegetarian or a low-carb person you won't find much to eat. My wife had a chicken sandwich that came with breakfast-style potatoes that had a strange and off-putting flavor. She couldn't eat them. Some type of seasoning overdone? Her sandwich had maybe 2-3 ounces of chicken on a very large bun. She left hungry. This has been a great place in the past. Hope it changes for the better. Great view with outdoor seating overlooking fields with tractors. Service was good. Live music was nice read more

Very Disappointed. My friends and I were so excited for a fun fall girls day at the Orchard Grille and planned around our 2:15 reservation. We arrived to a MESS. When I told the host that our party was here he looked at me and said that he wouldn't be able to seat us because they were almost completely out of food and that all of the servers except one had left because they weren't expecting to be as busy as they were. Shame on management for not anticipating a busy day on a beautiful Sunday on an apple orchard during Fall. Also, shame on management for not calling their reservations to let them know they were out of food and servers. Thank you for ruining my Sunday as now it's too late to make a reservation anywhere else. read more

Their lack of urgency, respect and customer service is appalling. I have been trying since 9/27 to get funds back that I was overcharged. My friend was also overcharged, same appalling experience. I have been told on multiple occasions, they have to look into it, they are too busy to deal at the moment, etc. Owners and managers refuse to even get on the phone with me. Finally when I called today, understandably upset (and I did apologize to the poor girl on the receiving end). I told them they have stolen from me and that I might come down in person and bring a police officer with me to get this straightened out. A gentleman came on the line and told me to go ahead and bring the police and then actually hung up on me. The lack of respect shown to me and my friend as paying customers show the lack of respect they have for their own establishment. Sad really, they could have turned this negative into a positive on so many levels, but took the low road. read more

Made our first visit to the Orchard Grill on a breezy, lovely Friday evening. If you're looking for a beautiful setting this is the spot - it's gorgeous, and serene, and just perfect. Unfortunately that is the only part of the experience that was outstanding. We began sharing three small plates / appetizers; meatballs which were okay, grilled brussel sprouts which were burned, and stuffed mushrooms that had this cloying indescribable sauce that covered the taste of the mushrooms and whatever they were stuffed with. Entrees included mediocre salads, although the grilled shrimp on top was tasty, two variety of burgers which were okay, and a shrimp po boy sandwich which was the standout of all the mediocre dishes. The young lady that was serving us was very sweet, kind and helpful. However, while most of the party was sitting there with plates have full and enjoying conversation, we were asked if we were ready for the check. Let's chalk it up to inexperience. All and all, I'll go back, if it were just for the scenery and I feel like I owe them another shot with the food. Oh, one more plus, the ice cream served at the farm on the same grounds is really good. read more

Went with a large party. Service was great. And the food and specialty drinks were delicious. Will be back again.

Server was pleasant, reasonable wait time. Food is heavy and soggy. Can't even pick up a sandwich because it all slides out in a soggy pile. Burger has sausage in it, nice if you want to gain weight. Fries are cold and sparse. Beautiful view, the restaurant that was here before was much better. read more

My first time here and I was disappointed. I was excited to try this because I love apple crest but the service was not good, the wait time for food and drinks was extremely long, and the food either lacked flavor or was too salty. The menus were dirty, as were the tables around me. During a pandemic, the menus should be cleaned and sanitized in my opinion. The stuffed meatballs were good but other than that I would not go out of my way to return. read more

We were so excited to finally come back to the farm and have lunch, been here quite a few times before they changed it. We were very disappointed to say the least. The food was awful the portions were very small. Very unhappy the service was terrible. We most definitely will not be coming to.eat here again. Need a new chef and waitstaff. read more

I don't understand the bad reviews (as of this writing). My party found the service very friendly, and the food excellent. We ordered apps, sandwiches, and mains, and all was good. We can't wait to return! read more

This is one of my favorite places. The food is above average, the view is incredibly relaxing and the staff is friendly. Like most places, they seem a lot short staffed but service remains pretty good. My one complaint is 'music nights'. This place is too small for loud music and it ales away from the relaxing atmosphere. I avoid the music nights. read more
