Have been there several times now, and this place is consistently pretty good. There are a lot of burger, chicken sandwich, and wing places in town, and the DG is definitely a few steps ahead of that with the standards as well as a broader menu, not fine dining my any means, but a sports bar with great outdoor dining and views, a strong menu, and a good beer selection, notably my favorite, Lunch from Maine Brewing. If you boat into Wolfeboro in the morning, you can dock at the public docks and walk right up for a very hearty breakfast-- great French toast and yes, eggs benedict! read more

Just came in for takeout, but I like what they did with the place! Some of the best chicken quesadillas I've ever had, and the chicken Caesar salad was very fresh and a large portion. I've always said this is one of Wolfeboro's hidden gems. Look forward to checking out the new seating including upstairs. We will be back! read more

We went at night and sat on the waterfront patio - amazing. The service was great! Nice wine list and beer list. Brought teens who really enjoyed chicken sandwich and burgers. We adults loved the bang bang shrimp and halibut and scallops. Seriously delicious. Kids gave five out of five stars. We do too! They even ate the Cole slaw! read more

Overall, a good meal during our first visit to Wolfsboro. We looked around and found some amazing little shops and decided to try the downtown Grill for a late lunch. It was such a gorgeous day. We sat out on the patio and enjoyed it. My wife and I both ordered salads. A chef salad with grilled salmon for me and a Caesar salad for my wife. We truly enjoyed both as well as the terrific setting overlooking the lake! Will probably be back! read more

Now open 7 days a week! First of all, you must try their fried chicken sandwich (previously called WFC Chicken Sandwich)! Second, the views of the Big Lake are incredible, and it's a great place to watch a game or listen to live music. They are open for breakfast again too, and they had one of the best breakfasts in Wolfeboro when they were open downstairs. Friendly staff as well! read more

Ordered the brisket sandwich but honestly could not eat it. The sauce had run all over the serving tray. The top of the bun and French Fries were soaked in sauce. The bottoms of the bun had turned to mush. There was no way you could eat it as a sandwich. I tried to eat it open faced but the diced brisket was well-done and dry. The sauce was salty and the pickled onions were so salty they burned. The fries that were not soaked in sauce were good; I ordered them well done. My mixed drink was good but I had to ask for a side glass of ice to keep it cold. The wait staff was nice but not sympathetic. Great location in Wolfboro bay but there are better places to be on the water and get good food. Taking this one off our list. read more

Sorry no pictures, while we stopped in for a walking through town break and a small bite. I want to say things were great but they were actually just okay and not memorable. Nothing exciting to report for me here but I'm sure this spot is someone's go to place. We went a few months ago and I had honestly forgotten I "checked in" and it was that much of an impact. read more

I had the cider on tap and a turkey burger with cranberries and IT.. WAS... DELICIOUS. Shout out to our server, Bethany, who was awesome!

Used to love this place for breakfast. So sad it's not open for breakfast anymore Hours are 11-9

Had to share this great find. Party of 7 people stopped in for a casual dinner on a weekday night. Mixed group of young and not young. The food was incredible! I had 2 kinds of wings a a few beers. Being from Buffalo, I typically keep my standards for Wings low away from home but these were nothing short of epic. The rest of our group raved as well. Strawberry salads, chicken sandwiches all fantastic. Really friendly staff. Great views of the water. New favorite in Americas oldest tourist town. Thank you! read more

A good option for standard burger fare with an excellent view! Bloody Mary for starters was great and a nice treat - followed by a big juicy burger! The side of house chips was a bit over done and smashed into crumbs but still fine. You can't beat the back deck view though which is why we picked this place. Service was good as well. I'd recommend! read more

Went for lunch one day and had a wonderful meal. Huge upgrade from the old grill! We went back tonight but left disappointed. It took a long time to be acknowledged, most of the staff were behind the bar with someone who I believe was the manager, and didn't seem to be in a hurry to chip in while they were in the weeds. We managed to get a spot on the deck before they were able to clear the table and we were willing to wait. Two other couples sat and waited also. For about 40 minutes nobody came out, until the (maybe?) manager came out to chat to someone and realized we were all new. He seemed annoyed that no one had been out, but he didn't clear anything or take any drink orders. He didn't seem to be in a hurry to help. We all decided to leave at the same time (the table still dirty from the previous guests) after I checked the bar inside to get a drink and nobody was tending the place. As we were leaving, one of the servers rushed out to apologize (it was her first day) and we assured her we understood and not to worry. All the restaurants I've worked at, the manager would jump in 100% to help us get out of the weeds. I was disappointed to see that he wasn't doing this at all, while the servers were very stressed. He could have taken something to clear the table, or offered to take a drinks order, but instead he only walked away. The reason for leaving this review was to say it wasn't the servers' fault, we know they were doing the best they could and could have used more support. We look forward to going back on a better night! read more

Bethany was our bartender and she was amazing!!! so nice and made the best drink..... definitely recommend!!!

50 minutes to be served two burned, over breaded bland fried chicken sandwiches and cold tater tots. Sad. I was so looking forward to the reopening. The remodel is nice, the atmosphere is nice but it's a bar now, it's no longer a coffee and sandwich place. The server was nice, but didn't check on us for 40 minutes. Plenty of better options in town. read more

Delicious and quick! My turkey cranberry sandwich is so good. And the staff is friendly. read more

Great fish tacos, margaritas and a very friendly staff! The views from the deck are amazing. This is a hidden gem in Wolfeboro!

First of all the service was spectacular! Kim was our server and she was fast, efficient, knowledgeable and best of all friendly and fun! Ask for her section if you get to this great place! The GM came by our table and told us about himself and the restaurant, as it was our first time. He was also friendly and knowledgeable about the restaurant and the area. The atmosphere was great, beautiful and clean with a fantastic view of the lake. Lots of big windows and just overall attractive and comfortable decor. The food was top notch also. We tried a few appetizers and we all had something different for dinner - there were 8 of us. I recommend the wings with the buffalo sauce and the nachos were delicious too. The meatloaf was huge and delicious. The Fish tacos were perfect. The shrimp PoBoy was great. We also had a turkey burger, the Cobb Salad, and the star of the night was the Steak Bomb! The Tots are really crisp and delicious too. Everything was plentiful and doggy bags went home with most of us. The he drinks were good too and Kim kept up with all of us. We already are planning our next visit! read more

I had a fly in my coffee, and the response by Downtown Grille Cafe was even worse. Specifically the manager's response. After drinking my entire ice coffee, I noticed something dark at the bottom of my drink. When examining it further, there was an actual fly sitting inside. Immediately, I got into my car to head over to Downtown Grille Cafe and see what they would do. When arriving, it was abysmal. Instead of having the manager speak to me directly, they had a young girl deal with the issue on their behalf. At first she offered me money back for the 1 coffee (I had also bought 3 other coffees & 6 croissants). When arguing that I wanted a refund for the entire order, she proceeded to go back and speak with her manager. Long story short, she made 3 trips to see her manager in the back room while I was there and that same manager never once came out to apologize, hold responsibility, or take any action. Instead, they used this girl working for them as the "messenger" for which I feel bad for as it was not her fault. I understand that things happen and you cannot control everything, but you can control your response to an outcome like that. I'm appalled by the display of cowardliness and lack of empathy from their manager. Terrible! read more

This restaurant is understaffed. The night people are not doing their share of the work by not cleaning the restroom, and leaving product out. Our waitress was amazing as she tried to wait on people and fix things not done the night before. My food was good but my husband was disappointed as the ham didn't taste right and the tots were cold. We will try again another day for lunch. read more

This place recently opened. clam chowder was good but everything else was terrible. Caesar salad was tasteless, meatloaf was so salty and flooded with gravy that I could not even eat it without having high blood pressure, and hot dog didn't taste like it was good quality meat. Parmesan chicken wings were so burnt, you could not eat it. There does not seem to be any quality control over the food leaving the kitchen. I wasted 100 bucks for this food that we could not eat. Very disappointed. read more

The service was good. The location is great. That's the good news. The chowder was probably the worst I have ever had. The Bloody Mary had garlic in it. The coffee was cold. The chicken fingers should have stayed on the chicken. The downstairs was closed and we had to sit on the 2nd floor with more TVs than customers. Bring back the old owners!! read more

We miss the old Downtown Grille. This is bland, average, corporate. Meh. Still has the lovely view but sooo Not the hometown team. So bummed. We waited 2 years for this?! read more

I will NEVER return to this establishment! I went in on Saturday (3/15) morning to have a Bloody Mary and some breakfast. I had tried to come in on Valentine's Day and actually had to get up and leave because we waited at our table for 30 mins after the waitress dropped our menus and never came back. However, I decided to give it another chance given it was a holiday. Sat at the bar upstairs not realizing it didn't open until 11. Mind you it was 10:45 and the rudest female bartender basically said we could sit there but she wasn't going to wait on us until 11! That is complete crap! I work in the food industry also as a bartender and if the door is unlocked and people can come in and sit down don't treat them like they are the problem and at the very least she could have given us a menu and offered us a water while she finished setting up. Instead she shunned us and told us she was finishing her set up and we would just have to wait. We just got up and went downstairs instead since we were clearly a bother to her!! We sat at the bar and ordered 2 bloody Mary. Could not get olives or celery because apparently she had "no fruit"! Again as a bartender what on earth does that even mean! It's a bar, drinks are served with a garnishes! We proceeded to order our meals, I got the hash with 2 eggs and an English muffin. I had 1 egg left, 1/2 an English muffin, some hash and most of my home fries left which I wanted to take home. Same with my friend I was with. The bartender Kim who is extremely rude and unprofessional came over took our plates never asked if we wanted a box and when we questioned where our food went she lied and said she assumed we were done because we had our napkins on our plates! We both still had our napkins in our laps, to which she replied oh ok well I'm sorry I thought you were done. Never offered to replace basically our entire breakfast she threw out and shrugged it off like no big deal. She then proceeds to charge us full price for everything and walk away like we were the problem! This place is a joke and can't seem to get it together! The food was barley even warm and extremely bland anyways and their online menu doesn't even match the menu they give you. Kind of a joke and I will not return or recommend to anyone. Better get it together or you will not survive and maybe hire some personable staff that actually enjoy their job and don't treat their guests like shit or that they are the problem! I will make certain to post this negative review on all platforms! I am utterly disgusted with how I was treated at this establishment and Kim should find another profession because food service isn't working for her and she makes terrible bloody Mary's!! read more

With the reopening, nearly all the gluten free options are gone which is very unfortunate. We used to love the Belgian waffle, English muffins and sandwiches. However, the wait staff and manager are excellent. Just disappointed with my limited options now. No longer a casual, take out place...they seem to be catering to more of an upscale clientele. read more

No issues with the newly designed interior or awesome wait staff but I ordered eggs over easy that were over hard, hash was partly cooked, home fries were moist and mushy soft and wheat toast was like a rock. Very disappointed for a place that was our go to when heading into town especially when they offered take out. Oh yeah! Very nice table service! read more

Been here a few times when we were in Wolfeboro. Awesome, modern cafe for a small town. They have great coffee and breakfast options. I usually go with the Monkey Mocha, which has a hint of banana. I've also really like their French Toasts. If you're lucky, you can get a table outside on the patio, which offers a beautiful view of the lake. read more

Wanted to try a new spot and in a sandwich mood so we ended up here. Two paninis and two cookies later we were full and happy! Cuban and chicken/Brie paninis were very tasty with good fillings. They were a tad burnt though but actually the smoky taste wasn't bad! My molasses cookie was fantastic and if we weren't there at the end of the day, with only one left, I would've gotten more. read more

Lured in by the expansive sandwich options, we headed over hungry and ready to chow down after our short hike at Mount Major. As soon as we sat down, we immediately noticed the amazing lake views from every angle of the dining room. On this visit, we opted for the California Cobb panini (no bacon) and the Portobello Mushroom wrap (sub blue cheese with mozzarella). Feedback on the panini was excellent and disappeared from his plate into his stomach in less than 10 minutes. However, my mushroom wrap (although super fresh with loads of healthy veggies) was served more as a cold sandwich than a "hot sandwich" as advertised on their menu so it was a bit unexpected. Overall, I loved the ambiance, the menu choices, the nice fireplace and the fact that they had both a full espresso and wine and beer bar. This restaurant totally oozes quintessential New England charm and I would most definitely visit again if I'm around this town again. Only thing I'd do differently is order the veggie burger! read more

A breakfast gem in downtown Wolfeboro. Lovely place in downtown - many different options for coffee and specialty drinks and an assortment of breakfast options including omelets, breakfast wraps, breakfast sandwiches, and some muffins/pastries. The kids enjoyed French toast (two thumbs up), I had a croissant breakfast sandwich - the bacon was crisp and the croissant flaky. My husband had the omelet and really enjoyed it. A few outdoor tables overlooking the boat docks and several indoor tables as well. You won't be disappointed. It can sometimes get busy but they are pretty quick to take orders and bring you your food. read more

Absolutely no complaints about the coffee we purchased at Downtown Grille Cafe. It looked like a fantastic place to eat and the menu really looked nice but we were just popping in for coffee (and the bathroom - which was also nice and clean). Staff were friendly and there was such a fun, relaxed vibe in the dining area. Downtown Wolfeboro in general was a fun find as I didn't realize it had so much going on - I would totally return and make time to eat here next visit! read more

We went her for breakfast. Stepped in and you order your food & beverages at the counter. Then you are given cups to serve yourself at the beverage bar, a number for the table and find a table. They bring your food over. The coffee is very good. We chose a medium brew. I ordered rye toast, bacon & hash browns. Kenny ordered a western with rye toast. Both breakfasts were good. Busy place. Their bakery items looked amazing! read more

The new Downtown Grille isn't anything like the old one it is sadly lacking. The new decor is nice & the beautiful view is great but the service was very poor. We went for breakfast on 10/25/24. It wasn't crowded I think there were just 2 other tables occupied. The waitress was very friendly but it was all down hill after that. Took several minutes to get a decafe & a tea. We ordered eggs toast home fries & a muffin. The muffin was good, the eggs were done perfectly the home fries were terrible. Where was the toast & more coffee? Told the waitress that the home fries were not good & asked for our toast more coffee & a glass of water. She brought more home fries which were better they are just frozen little diced potatoes. She never brought more coffee or water & the toast was brought out after we were done. It couldn't be called toast because it wasn't toasted & the butter didn't melt on it. We won't be going back. read more

This breakfast place has been my favorite for about a year now.. I recently heard something about the restaurant going under new management but didn't think anything of it... gave it another try this morning and I'm very disappointed. 45 minutes to wait in line for my burnt bagel and a watery smoothie.. read more

Love love love this place. Service is fabulous, the food is fantastic! Everyone that works there is friendly!

Sandwiches were great, locations great. How they serve etc is just weird. They have tons of employees but you have to order yourself and then go back and forth for more drinks etc. You would think the manager would just stick to a host/hostess and standard waitress style restaurant. It's almost like a cafeteria style deal. You also seat yourself which is kind of a pain especially when you have pushy old ladies who want your seat Lol. read more

We stopped into the Downtown Grille Café at the suggestion of our host for the weekend. The setting was quite lovely - we sat on the deck with a view of the lake. It was a beautiful morning - crisp with bright sunlight. We were able to enjoy the boats and the antique car show that was going on. You order at a counter and they bring your food to you. We all ordered the same thing - Corned Beef Hash and Eggs served with toast. What a disappointment this was, the corned beef hash was cold, dry and was a recipe like no other we have ever had. The corned beef hash that we have had consisted of corned beef, potatoes, onions and seasonings. This corned beef has red peppers in it. read more

This is an exceptional breakfast and lunch restaurant. The coffee and pastries are fantastic. I am a great fan of their muffins, especially their pistachio, which they will grill and butter. Portions of salads and sandwiches are generous and delicious. Gelato is also offered in many pleasing flavors. The seating is at lovely wood tables inside with large windows providing views of the next door park and Wolfeboro docks on Lake Winnipesaukee. The outdoor porch is surrounded by a glass railing for even sweeter views. You will love this place and want to linger a while to just relax and soak in the ambiance. read more

I've stopped in here for the fresh brewed coffee and iced coffee. This cafe is very inviting with nice decor inside and an outside patio overlooking the bay. This is great place to relax and to take advantage of the free wifi. The service is prompt and friendly. The coffee here has a good flavor and brewed just right (not weak). I will continue to stop at Downtown Grille for my coffee fix whenever I'm in Wolfeboro. I'll have to try one of their breakfast wraps on my next vist. read more

I hate giving three stars as my family loves this place. Food quality and selection is great. Service is lackluster, and cleanliness questionable. Views are nice, and interior unremarkable. Matter of fact we have come 20+ times and rarely is our order 100% correct. Muffins are delicious and great variety. LOVE the corned beef. Coffee is better than most places around, but, on a busy day, the staff can't seem to keep up with it. Never seem to get here for lunch but have heard good things. Could be four stars with some training and adult supervision. read more
