Visited for the first time with a party of five celebrating two birthdays, which meant expectations…read morewere festive, the vibes were high, and the drinks were prepared to flow. Finding the parking lot? Easy.Finding the actual bar & grill? A full-blown scavenger hunt. At night there are ZERO lights, dark signage, and my only landmark was, "Ah yes... follow the sacred Guinness imagery on the front doors like a slightly tipsy pilgrim seeking barley and salvation." During daylight I'm sure it's obvious, but at night (especially in rain or snow) you're basically navigating by faith, GPS betrayal, and hopeful vibes. Staff was attentive, relaxed, and perfectly matched the laid-back local bar & grill energy. The kind of place where regulars probably have "their chair". I didn't catch our waitress's name, but she fully understood the assignment -- group of friends, multiple drinks, laughter escalating in volume -- we felt welcomed, never rushed, and were allowed to spiral socially at our own pace. It was trivia night (we did not participate because our confidence exceeds our actual trivia knowledge), but surrounding tables were living their competitive lives. The menu is... honestly a conversation starter. It's giving jack-of-all-trades comfort food chaos. Where else are you seeing shepherd's pie egg rolls casually coexisting with liver and onions like they negotiated a diplomatic treaty at the United Nations of Comfort Food? Naturally, curiosity and poor impulse control won, and the table ordered the shepherd's pie egg rolls. Because -- science. Drinks: * Beer drinkers were happy -- solid selection, zero complaints. Glasses remained suspiciously empty which tells me everything I need to know.* I ordered a French Martini which immediately turned into the community sample martini. Consensus: enjoyed by others. Personally? Ce n'est pas mon préféré. Growth is knowing when a martini is not your soulmate. C'est la vie! Food: * A couple of us ordered the pot pie -- good temperature, solid comfort vibes, but the crust was thin and a little chewy instead of crispy, flaky and and emotionally supportive. Slight emotional letdown because crispy crust is possibly a love language. * I'm normally anti-fish taco, but a friend loved them. I tried a bite and will admit... flaky, fresh, and not oily at all. Respect where respect is due. Overall:Comfortable local hangout energy, friendly service, interesting menu, but the nighttime invisibility cloak on the building nearly had me questioning my GPS and my eyesight and whether I had accidentally entered a secret speakeasy that requires password authentication. Would go back -- now that I know I'm looking for Guinness signs like they're ancient runes safely guiding me toward carbs and cocktails!

Three of us had the Korean steak tips and the others were meatloaf and shepherds pie. I ordered my steak with the green beans (vegetable of the day) and a side of fries. The seasoning on the steak was really good and it was extremely tender. The green beans were fresh and slightly crisp. The fries were fries. They would have been amazing had they been fresh instead of frozen but they were not bad. The dinner was 30 dollars. A bit high but the steak was very memorable. Everyone really enjoyed their meals. They had quite a bit to choose from for dessert but noone could do it. Definitely a great date night place.

I try to avoid chain restaurants, but the 99 is one of the good ones. I give this review 5 stars for the service over anything else. Lily, the hostess, greeted me & my fiance with a genuine smile. She seemed to be busy but stopped what she was doing the minute we walked in. She had a good sense of humor & I observed her with other customers. She was absolutely pleasant. Our waitress, Arista, was just as candid & super nice to us. Again, it seems rare to have such friendly service & I completely understand given the long hours & stress much of the restaurant industry is experiencing. She came right over to get our drink orders. She was fun & our experience was memorable because of this. We didn't feel like there was any waiting for Arista to come back to our table, as she would be back to visit at the exact times you'd expect. The food was OK, it isn't anything to write home about. Unfortunately, we aren't the type to speak up if our order is wrong. I wish we had, but we still fear the "Waiting" experience. My fiance had ordered the cheddar bacon burger & instead he received a very simple cheeseburger. The fries were on the mushy, cold side. I had the Mediterranean Shrimp Bowl. The rice was a bit cold but the other elements were hot enough that when mixed, it warmed up. I don't go to Hooksett too often, but I was impressed with this location. It was clean & orderly, including the bathrooms. I am sure we weren't there at the most busy time that they experience, but overall I was happy. For lunch & a couple of drinks, before tip, our bill was only $43.

Now you can't tell by looking at me but born raise form my mom who doesn't speak English so I grew up in Mexican food, authentic Mexican food. So always the test is the beans that's right Mexican know what I'm talking about. A true Mexican restaurant makes good beans. So I ordered my combination. I speak a few Spanish words to the waiter. He kinda looked at me funny. And he asked me about how I knew how to speak Spanish. Well, I told him I was half Mexican. I told him I will be testing the beans that's the true test. Well they passed. The beans were amazing. The chili rellino were amazing. The tamale was great. For all the white people out there this is good Mexican food for all the Mexicans. It's good enough for you to dine. Enjoy.

It's located in a little business section off the main road. We were at the eye place and decided to go there for dinner. BOY AM I GLAD WE DID! We got the chicken sliders to start - omg. Heaven. Lightly fried tenders on small brioche buns with perfect toppings. There were 3 of them standing tall on the tray, hot and delicious. We got an order of the mac n cheese to share - again, pure perfection. Homemade with the right hints of smoked Gouda, cream and topped with crumbs. I got the bourbon steak tips with mashed and asparagus done medium. If I could go back every week I would. The only down side is this place is in NH and we live in RI. That and the seats aren't comfortable at all. That's my only con. Food wise there are none. Zip. Zilch. The staff was nice and attentive without being overly so. Oh oh wait. Ok one other con. They don't have Bloody Marys. That's ok. I was more than happy to swan dive into the mac n cheese to chase my blues away. Go here. Eat everything. And enjoy! You won't be disappointed. Cheers!!

A friend highly recommended Crown Tavern, and I can honestly say the food was outstanding. Every dish we ordered was excellent, and the drinks were great as well. Unfortunately, the service didn't match the quality of the food. Our waitress made us feel neglected and overlooked throughout the evening. For a meal that came to over $220, I expected a much better dining experience. It wasn't just slow service--it felt like we were forgotten at times. I did speak with the restaurant manager, Zach, and I truly appreciate how he handled the situation. He listened, was sincere, apologized, and genuinely cared about our experience. His professionalism left a positive impression, and I'm grateful he took the time to address our concerns. Crown Tavern has an incredible kitchen and serves amazing food, which is why it's disappointing that the service didn't reflect the same standard. I sincerely hope this is addressed because I'd hate for other guests to leave feeling the way we did. If I were rating the food alone, it would easily be 5 stars. Unfortunately, because service is such an important part of the overall experience, I have to give this visit 3 stars. I truly hope our next visit reflects the quality that the food already delive
