    This place is AWESOME. If you love heavy machinery, planes, and beer, you NEED to come here. They do not brew their own beers YET. Our waiter Nathan, who was really really good, mentioned that they will start around the beginning of winter. 10$ beer flight with multiple IPA's that are SEMI local, but still delicious. Beer cheese and pretzel which is a must at all breweries was great, the cheese was spicy and hot! Fried pickles with homemade ranch tasted great also! What an amazing location.

    Cute little bar right at the airport, but open to the public. Not a lot of frills, but the ambiance is in being literally right on the runway and watching the small planes land and takeoff. Great selection of local beers. The pretzel with beer mustard was really good and the staff were friendly.

    I went here for lunch and a beer with my husband. The place is newer and looks out over the tarmac. We were a week shy of being able to try their beer. However, they had many good beers on draft. I tried the Northwood IPA and it was very good. For lunch I ordered pulled pork tacos with potato salad. The tacos were OK but not great. There was too much heat and not enough flavor for my preference. The potato salad had good flavor. My husband ordered the Turkey BLT and it tasted very good. Our server was excellent, very attentive and friendly. Overall a good experience and I will be back to have another meal.

    Came here for the first time for a special event and we were impressed with the place, which…read morerecently underwent an extensive addition that increased the floor space, providing for a large tasting area and plenty of seating. River Roost is just a brewing facility with a tasting room, so there is no food provided or for sale. However, the place is across the parking lot from Big Fatty's Barbecue for some amazing, out of this world barbecue, Mac & Cheese, and the like. And you can bring it here to munch out while savoring the many beers on draft. And since it's not a restaurants, Fido is welcome. The owner was the attendant on that day and he was quite affable and also knew his beers like the back of his hand. I tried a "Mas Verde" IPA and it was absolutely delicious. Overall a superb time with wonderful people and great beer and superb food from across the street.... The only warning about the area is the parking situation. As the area (which used to be a blighted warehouse and industrial area) has become gentrified and dotted with apartments, the nearby Northern Stage Theatre, and numerous restaurants, parking has become an issue and customers should either arrive early or realize they may have to park several blocks away. But that only shows just how popular this area has become and part of it is River Roost's doing. Great place!!!!!

    My girlfriend and I loved this brewery. My girlfriend had been here before when the seating area…read morewas somewhat limited to one room. Not withstanding that, it was popular because people loved the beer. Now they have expanded the seating area markedly. It's at least six times larger! It includes tables and booths and a bar. The beer was great, it's right across the parking lot from a barbecue spot with great smoked barbecue and we will definitely return.!

We ordered a few drinks and appetizers prior to our dinner plans. The wings are a must try as we had both the buffalo and maple sriracha wings. Both were extremely well seasoned and flavored. The meat itself was tender and moist. The pretzel bites were delicious and soft. However the beer cheese could have had more flavor to it and consistency it felt a bit watery. All of our drink were delicious. My raspberry sour is definitely a new favorite. Service was efficient the only mishap we had was she asking for our bill they gave us the wrong tables and when we corrected them they seemed shocked of our honesty.

It was a very short drive and the parking facilities were good .. the interiors and seating were good too. Lots of space inside to sit and drink. Service was good, and the waitress was always smiling and took care of us well. Being a brewery one thing that surprised me was they just had one IPA on the tap.. just one IPA.. can you believe it? I was eager and waiting to drink a home grown New England/Vermont IPA but all we had there was one variety... it was a hazy IPA and don't get me wrong. It tasted really well... but I wish they had more options. They also had a wheat ale and some wine varieties.... Even in the food front, the menu was limited and less options.. We ordered chicken wings, and it was ok. Sauce was a bit sweet .. one of the sauces was really good and spicy . Overall, it fell short of my expectation and wish they had more food and drink options.. 3 stars ...

    This place is everything I love in a brewery. Private parking, graffiti, brewery sticker display,…read morecool merch, decent music, arcade games and food! Driving in I asked my husband I asked what Kettlehead is known for an he said: Beer. Yet somehow, I can't love Kettlehead. A few things occured that damaged the experience: 1. The waitress spilled a sampler all over my wristlet and cell phone. She was oblivious but she has been spilling it the whole walk to the table! She seamed put out i asked of they had bleach wipes as we were in from out of town and i didnt want mty cell phone smelling like beer all weekend. 2. The waitress stated the coin change machine is wonky and they don't own it. The coin machine worked fine but it was the first game we played, Tokyo Drift, that ate our money. I reported it and seamed like the guy didn't care. He didn't offer me a $1 to make up for it nor did he shut down the machine after my report. I feel like if you have it in your place, you should stand behind it. An issue, it should become yours. 3. The pretzels are terrible. They are like sliced and fried with no flavor. They looked like little hot dogs. We go to a ton of breweries and this is the worst pretzel experience we have ever had. Also, the waitress told us the mustard was the beer cheese and vice versa. My kid was not to happy when she ate mustard! But also, the worst beer cheese we have encountered as well. Her excuse, she has been up since 4am. Well, my husband wasn't wrong. He raved over their beer. Nobody was impressed with their food.

She was friendly, attentive, and had great recommendations. I don't drink, so i loved that they had NA beers and delicious mocktails - I went with the Lavender Lemonade. They also have one of the best daught beer menus in the upper valley. We split a Caesar salad and the summer harvest burrata, and oh my gosh, the burrata was incredible! We should have ordered 2, and not because of the size but because we were fighting over the last bite! Then we split the short rib risotto and the wild mushroom gnocchi with chicken (Molly's recommendation). They were both delicious! We're still thinking about them. And we had to finish it off with dessert, so we decided on the brownie with ice-cream...it was a perfectly warm and soft brownie - the kind you hope for! 5 stars for the food, the service, and the experience. The location speaks for itself - right next to the Dartmouth green. 10 out of 10 - would recommend for family/friend gatherings or date nights! We also usually stop there before walking to the dartmouth hockey games!

Whether you're in the mood for the buzz of the front bar or the quieter, more relaxed vibe of the back room, Murphy's lets you choose your scene. Sometimes though, particularly under the previous chef, the menu strayed too far from its pub roots, offering dishes that didn't match the spirit of the place - with the weak reviews to match. Thankfully, the new chef has struck the right balance. The current menu delivers all the classic pub favorites you'd expect alongside some more adventurous options. It's got that classic pub energy again; warm, welcoming, and food that feels right at home.
