What you see is what you get and what you get is good! This unassuming place offered a down home charm with kind and efficient service and incredibly tasting food all at a decent price. Despite the fame for beef, we sampled the fried haddock sandwich and seafood chowder. Both were impeccable and oh so delicious. The fish was a very large portion of a fillet, delicately battered and served on a nicely toasted and generously sized bun. The battered-style fries complimented the meal. The chowder was very rich, thick, and chock full of flavor and busting with fresh seafood. I was delighted to discover melt-in-your mouth scallops in the chowder, along with all the other expected fixings. While the beer selection was small and standard we were able to sample a local IPA which went well with the meal. Next time we're back in town we'll make it a point to stop by to try more menu items! read more

Fun roadside diner with a nice outdoor patio if you bring dogs. The fish sandwich was delicious and so were kids hotdogs.

Stopped by here to grab takeout while getting my car serviced. What a happy accident to stumble on this place. My husband had the lobster bisque (he called it phenomenal) hugh praise from him indeed. I got the chili delicious and I have a happy tummy. Cornbread muffins are moist sweet perfection. read more

Delicious food and prompt service with a smile...what more can you ask for?! I'd highly recommend grabbing a bite to eat here. You won't be disappointed! read more

I found diced onions which I am highly allergic too. The ambulance took me to the ER.

Driving through NH on our way to Portland, Maine, I saw this spot on Yelp with high ratings. I ordered the Black Russian sandwich which is a turkey and beef sandwich with Swiss and thousand island dressing on pumpernickel bread. The portions here are generous. My sandwich was really good. The bread was grilled just right. I will have to say that the flavor came more from the turkey, bread and dressing than the roast beef. I tried that separately and it was kind of bland. My husband got the French dip and he said that his meat was kinda bland too but with some salt and pepper and dipped in the au jus sauce he said it was good. The service is quick and friendly. I can see why this place is popular. read more

Beefside - Black Russian sandwich - Seafood Near Me - Concord, New Hampshire

i have stopped by here several times. always had a great roast beef sandwich or french dip! very good wait staff that works together and are quick with your order. sandwich portions are huge and very tasty! now the bad part! beer prices are a bit on the high side. i had a 16 oz. sam's seasonal and it was 9 dollars. i suggest if you want a drink that is fine! ask for the cost of the drink first! otherwise, i would still stongly recommend this little cosy place for lunch or dinner! read more

Visited for dinner on 7/22/22. While searching for a quick bite on Yelp, I stumbled upon this place......and I sure am glad I did. Great roast beef sandwiches, wings and salads. We tried the "White Russian" which had sliced turkey and roast beef with cole slaw on pumpernickel bread. It was awesome! Also tried a lobster roll and seafood clam chowder which were both very good. Got an order of chicken wings for the table (plain with teriyaki sauce on the side)......which were meaty, juicy and cooked perfectly. If anyone has visited the N.Y. area (specifically Brooklyn), there are 2 very popular roast beef spots...... Brennan & Carr and Roll N' Roaster. This place has a vibe of both of them combined. Nothing at all fancy but the food was great, service was great and prices were reasonable. read more

This was a great find! Just driving around to cool off from the hot summer heat and decided to get something to eat. I have a large family and there is barely ever a time where everyone loves their order. This was not one of those times! Every single person LOVED what they got. The service was very good as well and ambiance too. What we ordered: Black Russian - delicious Corn Chowder - creamy yumminess Seafood Chowder - amazing English Fish and Chips - tasty with a really nice crunch BBQ Brisket Sandwich - oh so good read more

One of the best fried clam meals ever - and 5* service. Fair prices and the experience was definitely worth putting this restaurant on my return list! read more

Sandwiches are great. My husband loves their barbecue sauce. I love their Turkey in Rye! The service is fast and waitresses are very friendly. Love the New Hampshire decor. read more

I was in the area and needed lunch. I found this on the Yelp app and it was close so I drove over. I got takeout. It was fast= prime rib sandwich w/ au ju was tasty. Fries were unsalted. Boo! No salt, no napkins given- Uh I dont know. I would prefer eating in next time. read more

Ordered a Prime Rib sandwich which came with fried potato slices and a cup of au jus. Also got some onion rings and fried mushrooms. Everything was just OK with the exception of the sandwich. That was very good, although for the price I'd have expected it to be a little larger. Will I be back? Maybe, maybe not. read more

Absolutely the best French Dip! Love eating at this restaurant. Friendly staff. Quality food. Fair prices.

Fantabulous!! The staff are super friendly and always helpful. The food is terrific. You cannot go wrong with this place. read more

This place was recommended by some co-workers since I was in town for work. I called in a to-go order, the place was easy to find and had a good amount of parking. Each item was bagged individually so it was easy to account for the order. I wanted to try it all and really could only eat half of what I ordered but it was worth every bite! Faintail shrimp basket - shrimp were HUGE and cooked to perfection. The fries were soggy by the time I got to eat it (8 minute drive to hotel) .. lose the foil to prevent steam, use only the brown bag. Lobster Bisque - HUGE pieces of lobster, entire claw! The bisque was a little sweet for me but I ate the large pieces of lobster. Fried Mushrooms - the small order was more than enough for one. Large mushrooms are cut to bite sized pieces and served with ranch. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere was fun! It's a place you have to experience for yourself! read more

Love this place. Clean, good food and great servers. We're 65 minutes away and don't mind the travel since the food is so good.

I go here a fair amount, but forgot to review. Super nice staff, and yummy food. Reasonable price, and speed at which the food is made. I love the fried chicken sandwich. read more

My friend and I were in recently for dinner and we left very impressed with everything. She had the steak tips while I had the jumbo roast beef sandwich, and we split an order of onion rings. The roast beef was melt-in-your-mouth delicious and my friend was equally happy with her steak tips. Onion rings were also very good. Our server was very pleasant, helpful and efficient. Prices were comparable to other local eateries. We agreed to add Beefside to our "visit often" list! read more

Did the take out thing tonight. Son has the BBQ beef dinner. Right off the bat he was pulling fat chunks out of his mouth. Then another. Then another. Nite after bite. He finally put the fork down and went through the beef by hand and pulled out an amount of too fatty to eat meat, amounted to a very small sandwich, which I feel to too much to begin with. This was his second time trying this dish in hopes it would be better. It was not. He said the beef itself was not tender like it should be. Perhaps it was rushed. Not sure. But that did it for him. He will not be back. read more

Stopped here on our way up north since it was close to the highway and was really pleased! Perfect place to stop if you are driving by. We sat outside and our waitress Heather was SUPER quick and attentive. All our food came out really quickly (without asking, which was much appreciated since we had another hour to drive) and was obviously fresh and hot and hadn't been sitting waiting to be taken out to us. Based on prior reviews we read we ordered the hot roast beef sandwich, super style, and got a side of au jus. Meat was tender and perfectly cooked medium, roll was soft. Was sliced really thin which I love, and there was a lot of it. Au jus was a little watery and not very flavorful, but sandwich was great without it so not a big deal. Also got the lobster roll which was good. Nothing to complain about but nothing standout. Same for the fries. Did have a very generous amount of lobster. The onion rings were really great. Again, generous portion (seems to be a theme here!) and really loved that they were sliced much thinner than most onion rings at restaurants which made them easier to eat and the onions didn't come out of the fried batter. Heather was so speedy and brought out ketchup and extra plates for us to share without us having to ask and came back incredibly quickly with our check and credit card after paying. read more

Another great meal at Beefside. I had a brisket sandwich. It was so good. My wife had a cheeseburger. Cooked perfectly as ordered. She loved it. The waitress was great. Very friendly. Casual and comfortable place to eat. read more

Used to be my favorite place but is very inconsistent. Sometimes it's amazing and other times it's the worst.

Great place for a quick BIG sandwich. Love to go here for lunch and the quality of food is always great. Service is quick and easy but I would re on end getting there early to avoid any lines. read more

Really good roast beef sandwich and fried seafood. Great service too. Definitely recommend for a quick bite!

The food is above average always. The waitresses are all very friendly and the atmosphere is very family friendly. Breakfast, lunch and dinner you can't go wrong. read more

1. They don't answer the phone 2. Ordered Chicken blasters hot for 11.50 received 4 tenders (Seriously) 3. Ordered Large fried mushrooms received plain chicken bites. 4. They charged an extra 6% on food without mention 5. Tried to call for a refund, no answer. 6. Will be stopping in tomorrow 7. To much confusion and not enough staff that has restaurant experience. 8. Buyer beware 9. Will not be a returning customer read more

First off, get the giant; the medium just doesn't pass muster. Sandwich tastes the same as a decade ago so I only have my faulty memory to blame re: downsizing. In my defense, i was trying to eat light - got the diet coke, and even eschewed fries (would have been a lot, considering the croissant and a half i'd scarfed down seconds pre-arrival). But forgoing the amplest serving of beefsides roast beef, renowned forestwide as the pride & joy of the lower Merrimack, was a step too far. Each mouthful was missing meat; mea(t) culpa for sure. The elderly obese woman who was so kind as to interrupt her bathroom-bound waddle and grace us with an optimally angled rectal emission regrettably did not salvage the situation. Service was phenomenal. read more

This is another one of those charming local haunts that I would never have found if it wasn't for yelp. Nothing pretentious, nothing fancy, just good cooking. The roast beef was lean and sliced thin. The seafood chowder had more seafood than chowder, and was complemented by oyster crackers. We had a medium onion rings for 3 of us to share, and it was huge. It could easily have served 4 or 5 people. They were learning a new POS the day we went, so there was small kine confusion paying, but everything else was 1st rate! read more

We went to Beefside as we passed through Concord. We had read reviews on Yelp of their Roast Beef sandwiches so wanted to try them out. The restaurant was VERY COZY, and it seemed like everyone knew each other. Unfortunately, since we were visiting from Alaska no one knew us, and while the service wasn't terrible, we just felt like the locals got preferential service. It took a while for us to get our order in and the food to arrive. We started with a small order of the onion rings and fried mushrooms, which were both delicious. The onion rings were nice and thin, and the batter was crispy and flaky. The roast beef sandwiches come in a few different sizes, and we got the Giant size. There was also the option to "super it," which included a few extra toppings/condiments, which we both did. We thought the sandwiches were delicious, but the beef was a little plain; wish it had a bit more seasoning. Overall, it was a solid sandwich, we just wish the dine in experience was a bit better. read more

Decided to eat at Beefside to change up lunch at the work place. I will say as a business minded person. The marketing and the decor do not match, at all. They are called Beefside but have dog memorabilia everywhere. States that roast beef is their top menu item, but when you enters it's all dogs everywhere. But anyway. On to the food. My co-workers ordered chicken tenders, the teriyaki chicken sandwich and I ordered the Giant Roast Beef sandwich; SUPER IT-cheese, tomato, lettuce and mayo. I also got the strawberry shortcake for treat. We ordered our meals to go, which came in paper bags, wrapped in aluminum foil and on paper plates. I loved the concept of low key to go containers. My coworker who got the chicken tenders says "some of the best tenders I've ever had." My other coworkers who got the chicken teriyaki sandwich says "it was fine. It was a bit dry." In the sandwich defense. She didn't get mayo on her sandwich. My roast beef sandwich was delicious They can wave their Roast beef flag, because it was a great sandwich. Lettuce was crunchy, cheese was melted, roast beef was fresh. On the other hand the strawberry shortcake was not great. The cake was more like cornbread. Not my favorite Cant wait to go back again for more of their options. read more

Driving through the area on our way to a ski resort we were looking for a place to eat. This popped up and sounded wonderful. We saw the sign easily from the road and ample parking. It was a super busy time of day so the lobby was packed when we arrived and as we exited later. They jotted down our name and after a short wait we were led to a table in the back corner. It was a tad awkward because it was under a TV so everyone looking at the TV seemed to be looking at us. The whole place is a bit overwhelming and almost clasuterphonic. It feels like your grandparents farmhouse - complete with huge fireplace and knick knacks and photos and signs and everything else you imagine in your grandparents farmhouse. The menu had a lot of hometown diner type items but the brisket is always my first choice anywhere. The wife always chooses pulled pork but was tempted by the ribs. She opted for the rib / pulled pork combo platter with French fries, coleslaw and cornbread. I went for all brisket, French fries, coleslaw and cornbread. The waitress was extremely friendly and had a great personality. She seemed to know everyone in the place (as I expected at a smaller town restaurant) but those she didn't know seemed to be treated to the same friends, good natured service. Our meals came out a short time later and the portion size was HUGE for the price. I dug into the fries - cooked perfectly. I dug into the coleslaw - pretty good but not the best i've ever had. Then the brisket... which was a let down. It was far thinner slices than I had pictured in my mind. I immediately felt they would have been better suited for a brisket sandwich. That may have been a better idea like French dip style to add some au jus. It needed a bit more to it. I wouldn't say it was exceptionally dry, but it needed the BBQ sauce that was provided. I also would prefer the slices to be thicker - more like chunks than slices. As I saw sandwiches come out to other tables I immediately knew that would have been a better idea. The one thing you don't get with those orders however - THE BEST CORNBREAD!! Oh. My. God. I should have ordered a plate of cornbread. I like cornbread with butter but not when it needs to butter because it is dry. This was the right amount of sweet and cooked to perfection so it wasn't dried out. You could tell this had the feeling and taste of an old family recipe. Now if they could channel the love that the cornbread gets into a dry rub or something on the brisket this place would be unstoppable. read more

Delicious! Hands down the best roast beef sandwich in Concord. And yummy onion rings as well. Friendly staff who seem to always be working their butts off. Beefsides has been strict about their mask policy too, which is much appreciated - especially when I'm just running in for takeout. Definitely give them a try! read more

WOW!!! Talk about a great restaurant!!! From the outside you might question the quality of the food, but you will be SO mistaken!! First, the staff is about the friendlies staff I have ever met. Heather made us feel right at home and you can tell she is VERY passionate about her job and the quality of the food that this establishment produces. I had the Fish & Chips and a cup of Lobster bisque. i didn't want anything heavy. They had two different styles and i chose the one with the light batter. WOW.. the haddock was nice and flakey, full of flavor for which the batter didn't overwhelm... and you have GOT to try their sauce, for the life of me I can't remember the name of it. The lobster bisque was spot on and full of chunks of lobster!!! I watched my co-workers devour what they could of their meals. Both of which had nothing but great comments. They had the Prime Rib plate and the Colossal Roast Beef. Hats of to this gem in the rough and its staff. WE WILL RETURN IN FORCE!!! read more
