If you Park in the lot, the closest entrance to Hart's Restaurant is through the tavern. So I waited about 20 minutes for my food. The bartenders were friendly and warm. So nice, I decided to open my meal and have a few bites there. I was brought silverware and water and had a lovely experience. The food was so good! Warm and totally how you want a home cooked Thanksgiving style meal to feel. Highly recommend both Hart's and Copper Kettle.

The staff seemed frantic but they were working very promptly to make sure customers could be seated. I was told that our party of 2 would be about 15-20 mins. They took my phone # to add to the waitlist. The wait was more like 6 or 7 mins. We were seated in the bar area at the booths. The bar is somewhat loud but it was still average. It's nice that they can accommodate parties of 2 so easily. There were several large groups, primarily families so it's certainly kid-friendly. They serve up some of the BEST fries! I suggest the O'Crabby Patty. It is on the heavy side with caramelized onions but wow is it packed with flavor. I will be getting that again for sure!

We visited on Friday night and sat at a table as the bar seating was pretty packed. Crowd was pretty chill - a mixture of people in their 20's having drinks & apps, and then older couples/families enjoying dinner. We were happy to see Smithwicks on the draft menu, and we also got a Downeast cider with a caramel/cinnamon rim. We ordered the house made mozzarella sticks, which were ginormous, crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, and all around delicious. We all opted with different types of burgers - sliders, fried chicken, and a pub burger. All were served with fries and were perfectly cooked. The coating on my fried chicken was crispy and flavorful. Service was awesome - our glasses were never left empty! Best of all, Dwyers has a free jukebox packed with favorites. Looking forward to coming back on our next visit to Portsmouth - we'll definitely be trying the deviled eggs, wings, and fried oreos!

We stopped in here for a couple of drinks after dinner around the corner at Cinco's. Our server was very friendly and quick to check on us throughout our visit. I had two different cocktails from their specialty list, both were horrible. The first one was pretty much straight tequila with maybe a tiny squeeze of lime, quick way to get drunk but not an enjoyable way. The second one was so overbearingly sweet, I had all I could do to drink it. Now, the prices can't be beat on their drinks, compared to other bars in town, that's the one really good thing they've got going for them.

My husband enjoyed his steak & cheese with french fries, which is the only thing that made this a 3 star review. Very disappointed.

The server was completely out to lunch and by the time he came back to check on us, my entire party had either finished their meals or shoved the plates away in disgust. We went on a night that was "buy one, get one" so we weren't going to pay for one of the meals anyways, so when the dimwitted manager came over and proudly announced that she was taking care of my meal - YEAH, I KNOW! THAT WAS THE ADVERTISED SPECIAL - I just didn't get to eat it! I don't know what the inn rooms look like. I hope they're great, but skip the restaurant. YUCK!

It was mostly local regulars, but all were very friendly and talked about local activities. The pub had all the regular beers, nice and cold.

Definitely worth the stop.

She was prompt, courteous, and friendly. The music was good, though a bit too loud (we were seated too close). We had not been to 405 on a Live music night though, so we made the best of it. We will ask to sit farther away if that happens again. Or we just won't go on music nights. The singer guitarist was good, but every song was in the same key (all songs sounded alike). Some like that. We don't. Musical taste is subjective. We're musicians and know that. It's tough to please everyone. Our food and drinks were all delicious! And that's really why we continue to go to 405. My steak tips and Greek salad was yummy! My daughter had the same and loved it too. My husband loved the fish and chips. Son-in-law loved his burger and said if even beat Patrick's! Ha!

While the performer was really good, he had the speakers up pretty loud making it difficult for my husband and I to hear each other and we were sitting side by side. At the time there were only a total of 8 people in the saloon including my husband and I so turning the volume down a tad would've been perfect. We sat at the bar and asked what they had on tap? Unfortunately not a whole lot. We asked if they had a drink menu and they didn't. The food menu was pretty scarce as well. We stayed for a couple beers and decided to venture off somewhere else for some grub. I imagine on a Friday or Saturday night this place would be a blast to hang out at!
