Great beer selection on tap and their brews were very good. live music every other Sunday. We didn't eat much so I can't say how the food is. It would be great to crawl from this place, to smuttynose to my favorite Throwback for their food. I didn't love the atmosphere, but it was a dreary day. read more

First time trying this spot as it was chosen for a group social. The event was held in the basement, so I did not get a good chance to see what the main dining room looked like. Pretty nice beer menu with lots of local options, as well as some that are brewed in house. The menu was pub/comfort food, with some interesting large plates as well. Whenever I see a pretzel on the menu, I have to order. While it was good, it was not at all what I typically get in a bar. I was served 3 smallish, pale and crunchy pretzels with a trio of sauces. The sauces were all interesting, but I would have preferred a standard large brown soft pretzel. I did try the fish tacos which were tasty, albeit a bit small for the $7.50 cost per taco. They are served a la carte. The waitress at the bar handled the crowd very efficiently and food came from the kitchen promptly. This spot is a bit off my radar, but I likely will return to explore the menu further. read more

Such good food and decent beer selection. The adorable young blond that helped us was super patient with my kids and I. Will be stopping here again on our next Maine travels! read more

Great food and friendly staff. We had the haddock bites, seafood chowder, and pickle back chicken sandwich. All were fresh and excellent.

Stopped in this weekend for lunch and to watch the game. It was pretty mellow so grabbed a spot at the bar. What an EXCELLENT tap list! I got a few house made beers that were tasty and clean if you're a beer drinker. They also had a full bar if thats your thing. The bartender was fun to talk to and super knowledgable and I enjoyed watching the game with him. We got lunch and they had mostly standard pub fare but it was super tasty. A really nice underrated spot in Hampton if youre in the area they are worth a visit. read more

Food was great and a huge draft beer selection. Highly recommend the House made Pretzels , GOUDA STOUT MAC N CHEESE with buffalo chicken and clean fusion noodle bowl with sautéed shrimp. read more

This is my "go to" in Hampton. We went to the original many years ago and were happy to see this new one opened up Service is always great. Hands down. Food is so good. They even split our sandwiches on two plates, which I love. The pretzels are my fav and the dipping sauces are incredible. In house beers are better than other breweries they have. I love craft beer and the Whym brews are impressive. Plenty of parking and outside of the boardwalk. Definitely worth the ride. read more

Two of our drinks had to be remade due to bad ingredients, the waitstaff was overly pushy, and the fries had a very weird aftertaste that none of us could pinpoint. There's a million great restaurants in Hampton, would really recommend trying some out before coming here... read more

5 stars this food was really good. I got the slayer grilled chicken sandwich which is a 10/10 and a lemonade that was a little sweet so I had to put some water in it. The service was good, our waiter was super nice and always had a smile on her face. Had to ask the hostess for crayon after 10 minutes of waiting. But over all the food was super and nice and cool. read more

WHYM Craft Pub & Brewery - My The Slayer Chicken Sandwich - New American Near Me - Hampton, New Hampshire

Waitress was very nice, lowkey and casual atmosphere. Everything seemed clean, the wing appetizer with nashville sauce was great. The fish taco was good, but it came a la carte and the plate felt pretty empty for ~$8. Wanted to try the lobster mac, but they were out of lobster. Got the buffalo mac instead, it was good! Large portion. The cranberry marg was awesome but got a coffee-based cocktail that wasn't very palatable in my opinion. Asked for cream which made it a little better but that's just my preference. ~$100 for 2, 2 drinks, 2 apps, and one entree which is average nowadays read more

Admittedly, the last time I had been to WHYM was 3 years ago, and I only remember feeling *meh*. But yesterday was a rare unicorn of an October day, 70's and sunny, and it begged for an outside lunch. True, pavement with picnic benches isn't picturesque, but the sun and breeze made up for it. Note: The inside is absolutely lovely, the bar is welcoming and it it wasn't for the weather we would've been happy to be seated inside. Waitstaff were fantastic...quick to take our drink order, friendly and attentive. I knew that the Caesar salad was my future. Dressing on the side, a really fresh serving of romaine (uncut), fresh croutons and slices of parmesan. My husband's burger, however, was the showstopper. He said that it was incredibly delicious, bacon cooked perfectly and burger done as he asked. And it was huge!!! The fries (I can speak to those personally!), were frighteningly good. I'm a well done fry person, so a couple more beats would've been my choice but that didn't stop me from finishing them! If you haven't been to WHYM, or at least not in a while, give it a go. I happily retract my *meh*!!! read more

A great restaurant with a variety of delicious food and drink options, and especially enjoyable for families! I've been to WHYM several times now, and one thing I love about this place is their wide variety of food options. Seafood? Check. Pastas? Check. BBQ? Check. In my most recent visit, we had the ribs, lobster roll, fries and edamame. While tasty, we've definitely had some better lobster rolls and ribs in the area. For drinks, we had margaritas, which were tasty and affordable. Food and drinks are a 4/5! The service is always great here and the food comes out nice and quick! What is the best aspect of WHYM is the ambiance. We've been here on several Thursday nights where they have musical bingo with prizes. Outside, they have mini golf and corn hole! read more

Opening the doors to the dining room making it outside seating without asking the people sitting inside is a tad bit ridiculous. We chose inside because it is a tad bit chilly today. read more

Simply said this was a great brewery with amazing food and brews. I had the haddock nuggets and a half salad mid afternoon and was happily satiated for the night. Loved their dark beers. The night rider and imperial stout were awesome. Our server Ericka was pleasant and attentive. We will be back on our next trip through the seacoast. read more

I love the patio area and open air concept of the restaurant. Food was great and so was service was great! Thanks

Great service for a large group at the bar. They take the Reel Pass so all beers were bogo! Limited selection of their own but good guest taps. read more

Maple Bourbon Chicken & Waffle was sooo delicious & Bourbon Blu cheese burger were both out of this world. I mopped up the maple with my waffle to just enhance the taste buds! oh did I mention the pretzels soft and served with three different dipping sauces?? Like magic. Unfortunately I did not get the name of the waitress but she was also fantastic. The ambiance was most desirable with live music. A very enjoyable eatery. read more

Server was inattentive and the restaurant wasn't even busy, but food was great!! I recommend the O, G, burger and the frites.

Food is excellent, the vibe/atmosphere and service provided by the staff is great. Id feel just as comfortable bringing the lady on a date night or bringing the family. Keep it up. read more

Just driving up the coast we passed this quaint brewery/ craft pub. So we turned around and came back. It looked fresh and inviting. What's not to love about a delicious diverse menu and plenty of craft draft. The service was excellent. The burgers were juicy and cooked to perfection. I'm so glad we found this spot. Best news of all, we were welcomed with a doggie water dish (for our pup) on the outdoor deck. This is a can't miss pop in. Tip: Make sure to check in. They offered us a 10% off one food item. read more

Definitely worth stopping by this pub. Everything about it is amazing, the beer, food and atmosphere. read more

Been 3 times so far in the past year and it's always been great food and drinks. Whether you sit at the bar or a table the service is good speed and food is also great. By no means best food in the world - the space is welcoming and staff is also friendly! We like coming to this restaurant every couple months. Summer time is even better with the bands and how the place opens up to the outside. Recommend trying! read more

Great service, big selection of WHYM and other local brews, tasty food, and fun atmosphere. I enjoyed the grilled cheese and tomato soup! But I also recommend the beer frizzled pickles and garlic parm chef's frites for starters- so yum. read more

The first thing I noticed was that the place had a larger than life personality, with custom wallpaper and charcuterie board skateboards hanging on the walls. The first thing that we ordered was Jager poutine, which had a surprisingly rich flavor, with almost all of the alcohol flavor gone. The beer frizzled pickles were the same. Service was excellent, and overall, this restaurant is amazing read more

I think this has been one of my favorite breweries so far. I felt like the staff was friendly and the area was open, lots of light and they even had a live performance. To start with, I only sampled one beer and that was the Surf Spot. A little sweeter than I'd typically like, but it was an easy drinkable lunch or 8 am beer. I also liked that they had about 10-12 different local and Vermont beer offerings in the event you just didn't feel their jive. The food. Quite good! They identify as a gastropub and I'd agree. Funky, fresh and artistic... but not too hipster that you don't know what the hell will be on your plate. I love poutine and they had their own hand cut string fries, brisket gravy (could use a dash more flavor) but a healthy serving of it in the sense that I didn't have to ask for extra. Praise the gravy lords. The curds were mild and that worked for me. I got the pulled chicken chimichanga. I liked the hot sauces they used and there was a hefty helping of the queso-creme sauce which I won't complain about but I definitely would like more spice incorporated. Great fry and nice consistency of the tortilla. I wish there was maybe a side of rice to go with it. My only dislike was the Gouda Mac and cheese. Very bland. Creamy... but bland. Like not even some salt and pepper added is going to make me order it. Definitely coming back! I want to try to pretzels and Buffalo gnocchi! read more

I first came here a couple of years ago and felt so "meh" about the place, I didn't bother writing a review, or coming back--even though it's only a short drive from my home. Well... I'm glad I gave it another shot! After a short visit with my son a couple of weeks ago, in which we both enjoyed a chicken sandwich and fries, I returned with my significant other tonight for two fabulous meals and drinks at the bar. The cocktails were top-notch, as in right up there with high-end cocktail bars such as the Wallingford Dram in Kittery. The baked haddock was perfectly cooked and exquisitely fresh, as was the double side of green beans (we skipped the rice pilaf). My Nashville hot chicken sandwich was perfectly sauced, flavorful without burning your mouth off, topped with puckery pickles and blue cheese aioli, and the garlic -parmesan fries left us all but licking the plate! Service was friendly-fun and attentive. Good music. Wish they would dim the lights and work on warming up the atmosphere a bit, but I am now a fan, and will definitely be back! (Could this be a new regular spot for us??? We've been needing one. Stay tuned!) read more

Ok beer, strip mall vibe, extremely overpriced mediocre food. Ordered the special, a Turkish rice and mussels dish, for $18 and received 6 (SIX!) mussels with some rice in the shells. Absolutely outrageous ripoff. This place is not worth going to. read more

I recently used WHYM for a family event. It comfortably held 50 people. The food received rave reviews from all the guests. The service excellent. Everyone commented on the quality of the food especially the pretzel sticks, Caesar Salad, French fries and the chicken fingers. Although the chicken fingers were for the kids the adults loved them. Please consider WHYM for your next event you. Alex and Gretchin are very accommodating and a pleasure to work with. read more

Food: 4 stars was good and filling Ambiance: 2 stars Way way to noisy. A guy playing music. could not talk with friends when he was playing. Place was cold as in no personality. Service: 2 stars Could not hear a word she was saying. She had a very soft quiet voice. So could not hear her when the music was playing. Watching her stand and stare at us and others from the service station was unnerving. She was a little slow and seemed like she did not want to be there. Hostess acted like we where bothering her when we walked in and when we left she was playing on her phone.... HATE HATE having to use phone to look at beer menu you should have it printed out for people... HATE HATE HATE having to pick tip amount on stupid computer. 18% to 35% is so wrong to make people pick..... Pretty sure I won't be back..... read more

This was our second time eating at WHYM. Definitely worth a visit. I had the fish and chips. My sister had the new Caribbean hot chicken sandwich. Both were really good. Fries were a little bit salty. Will visit again when we are in the area. read more

This was our first pitstop in Portsmouth on the Doggie Roadtrip, courtesy of Yelp and Bring Fido. A craft beer bar with good grub and a dog-friendly back-jarden? Don't mind if I do. WHYM is situated in a large barn that looks to have been repurposed from, perhaps, a working barnhouse? They had all the accoutrements--the oversize carthweel, a grain silo built into the frame of the house, and various farming implements and rustic touches. Inside, it was very cozy with a neighborhood bar feel. The beer list if no joke, meticulously curated (ugh) and sourced from both local northeastern breweries and some heavy hitters from further out. The food is also fantastic. My Hipster Cowgirl Burger was a delicious mess of beef, chipotle aioli, pickled red onions, parsley, and Vermont creamery goat cheese. The truffle fries I split with the wife were also super tasty. I wish I could remember the gut-busting dessert they offered but I can't. Pretty sure it involved Nutella and was off the hook. If you live in Portsmouth and aren't spending at least some time here, well, Sir, I adminish you. read more

This was the first restaurant I've been to in the new normal to actually dine at. I was extremely impressed with their process. You drive in and a hostess comes to the car to explain how it all works. Basically, you have to read their webpage on precautions and what to expect then find the magic word to let the hostess know you've read it before you're allowed to enter. We mistakenly also thought you had to place the order online before going in but you don't need to do that - just let them know the word of the day to gain entrance. Upon entering, you have to sanitize your hands then we were outside and the tables were all spaced appropriately. There was live music and I have to say the man was awesome. He was doing covers and sounded so good. I definitely want to return when he's playing again! Our food was pretty quick since we pre-ordered and paid online. Everything comes out in paper or plastic containers. Our waitress was really nice and friendly. For drinks, we went with an Allagash River beer which was a little too hoppy, and a draft cocktail called Punches in the Apples. The drinks were just so so. I think had we not been confused and had been able to sit and order we may have made other choices. Well, I likely would have gone with the apple draft cocktail so maybe I would have made the same choice. I didn't think it was very strong. The food was great though. We went with two small plates to share. The Belgian frites were very nice. Perfectly seasoned. You have to pay extra for dipping sauce and the mayo didn't go very far so next time I'd order two of them. The winner was the Bangkok Shrimp with a side of sriracha aioli. The shrimp was awesome. Huge portion too. I didn't try the sriracha aioli but my dining partner loved it. Both meals were very big for small plates and totally filled us up. Prices were great for the amount and quality of the food. I think my drink was a bit overpriced because it really didn't feel like it had much alcohol at all. I loved sitting outside and the man doing covers playing the guitar was fantastic. I recommend stopping in - really felt like a safe atmosphere and was truly a fun experience. read more

Went here for the first time last night. My boyfriend and I drive by it all the time and I was always curious about it. We tried to go once a couple years ago but it was so packed we couldn't get a parking space, and most times we go by it's packed, but when we went last night I could see why! I tried a sip of my boyfriend's stout beer and thought it was pretty good, and I don't even like stout. The adult thin mint cocktail is dynamite, I had two of them. We got some chef's frites, the pretzels with the three awesome dipping sauces (I liked the chipotle one the best) and we each got a Gouda stout mac and cheese. My boyfriend got plain, I got the buffalo chicken and we loved them. The server was super nice too. Everything on the menu sounded awesome, so I can't wait to go back and try more. read more

4 stars overall, I think the food is actually what makes the place. Everything I've had has been really good. The beer they make is okay, probably middle of the road for craft beer. However, they do have a variety of options as well as a lot of other local beers read more

A very pleasant surprise awaited us at Whym Craft Pub. We dined there on a Friday. No issues getting a table. Atmosphere was fun with good music playing in back ground. The food was terrific!

Worst food I've had in a long time. Basically paid $12 for gross ramen noodles with soy sauce. Absurd. Great little play area for kids & Fantastic staff. I ordered the clean fusion. It came with way too many noodles and barely any veggies. I was astounded so I told the waitress and she brought me another tiny portion of veggies. She was super nice and definitely did a great job (checked in on us multiple times and tried to fix the cheaply made entree). Can't blame her for a poor item on the menu but that option should either be improved dramatically or taken off the menu. It's annoying to pay for a bowl full of cheap tasteless noodles. read more

WHYM Craft Pub & Brewery - Clean Fusion was terrible. Lacked flavor and substance. Barely any veggies and sauce tasted like plain soy sauce. - New American Near Me - Hampton, New Hampshire

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and very good food. The meals were presented very well and everything was fresh and homemade. I got the house tips with sautéed onions, peppers and mushrooms on rice pilaf and a side of green beans. Tips were very flavorful and cooked right. The green beans were fresh. My wife got the grilled cheese and tomato soup. The grilled cheese was very good and the soup was a homemade tomato bisque. My wife also got a margarita, not big but not slumped on the alcohol. Definitely recommend eating here if in the area. read more

Had a delightful brunch with 2 friends on a sunny Sunday in November. It wasn't too crowded. We landed seats at the bar. Nice tap list-23 rotating draughts. You can access their beer menu on Untapped which I find find helpful. enjoyed a NE IPA from Woodland Farms Brewery. I had a Douille Benny which was awesome. My friends shared a Border Bennie and a large burger, I think it was The Grain. Looked so good and it came with a sizable portion of fries. The restaurant is comfortable with ample seating. I will return when in the area. read more

I love the beer and sitting outside with our dog. Unfortunately, the food is pretty subpar. Burgers undercooked...even kids grilled cheese not melted. Stick with fried options. The fries were amazing. Great pit stop on way to Maine! It's the second time we've been here, and the food wasn't memorable last time either, but it's a lovely spot. Please work on the food! It's not cheap, and we want to get what we pay for. read more
