Hubby got the regular cheeseburger and he loved it and was already chowing down before I could get a pic of it. My daughter got the pulled pork sandwich and enjoyed it. I got the Rodeo burger because I love the onion rings and barbecue sauce that comes on it. Yum! The best messy burger around! And only $18.99 when most other places charge $20 or more. I also loved my cocktail! I normally don't drink Old Fashioneds but this had a light pumpkin spice taste to it that was lovely. And one can't go wrong with Woodford Reserve. Our server was wonderful and let us know as soon as we sat down that she would be right back, and she was! She also checked on us after we had a couple bites of our lunch too, to ensure we liked it and didn't need anything. She really paid attention! Cheers!

It was mostly local regulars, but all were very friendly and talked about local activities. The pub had all the regular beers, nice and cold. The food was actually pretty good bar food, had their pub shaved steak sandwich. It was different but good and the fries crispy. I sat at the bar and the service was very good and bartender friendly. Definitely worth the stop.

So nice, I decided to open my meal and have a few bites there. I was brought silverware and water and had a lovely experience. The food was so good! Warm and totally how you want a home cooked Thanksgiving style meal to feel. Highly recommend both Hart's and Copper Kettle.

The staff seemed frantic but they were working very promptly to make sure customers could be seated. I was told that our party of 2 would be about 15-20 mins. They took my phone # to add to the waitlist. The wait was more like 6 or 7 mins. We were seated in the bar area at the booths. The bar is somewhat loud but it was still average. It's nice that they can accommodate parties of 2 so easily. There were several large groups, primarily families so it's certainly kid-friendly. They serve up some of the BEST fries!

I privately messaged the owner with a couple of pictures just to let her know, and her response was nothing short of exceptional. She immediately offered to remake it today, but went completely above and beyond by making me TWO replacement Reubens. They were absolutely incredible--perfectly lean, packed with flavor, and easily some of the best Reubens I've ever eaten in NH. Any restaurant can have an off night, but it takes a truly exceptional business owner to handle feedback with this level of grace, generosity, and flawless customer service. Waterhorse Pub has earned a loyal customer for life. Do yourself a favor and check them out

I was so impressed with the quality of the food. At first, we were surprised to hear that they were sold out of several ingredients and they apologized for not being able to serve the dish. Well, my first impression was wrong. The reason for this was because they use FRESH ingredients and sometimes they run out. ??????? Say What ????? In New Hampshire? At a Tavern? Then our server brought us our plates of food which were so delicious, I couldn't believe it. The ingredients were obviously super fresh. No frozen tasteless ingredients and simply the best food I've had in Laconia. Listen up people. Great things take time. I just read some of the comments here and I am surprised to find that many folks are complaining about how long the food takes to cook. Hope that you read this until the end. Give this super cool establishment a chance, maybe even a second chance............A VERY HAPPY NEW CUSTOMER

Value was good and they know the correct way to pour a Guinness (an important and under-rated skill). Parking lot is too small and was full and led us to think there would be a wait, but with a full lot the place was only 1/2 full. Sounds like they are putting one in across the street- which will be nice. Schnitzel was great - would have loved authentic spaetzel as an alternative to whipped potatoes but it was still excellent. My wife's salmon was also excellent - sauce was very good and its side of veggies contained LOTS of peppers. Maybe a few more snap peas to balance them out. All in all a very good first experience at this just-opened establishment. We're hoping that the summer crowd doesn't make this place impossible to find a seat at - but will certainly return after Labor Day when it's left to us locals. Wishing them the best if luck.

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.

I went in on a Sunday afternoon and the place was not busy at all. I bellied up to the bar and was thrilled to see the local selection of draft beer. The bartender was more than friendly and we talked about all of the different beers they had on the menu. He offered samples of anything I wanted and so I opted for a flight. The beer was great, the atmosphere was amazing and the bartender fantastic. I had the "BReuben" for lunch and it was incredible! A bratwurst wrapped in pizza dough with sauerkraut and 1000 island dressing. SO GOOD! Fast forward to a week later. I brought the grandson there and we shared te Witches Warts (cheese curds) and they were awesome. The staff, as before, was more than friendly! I cannot recommend this place enough.
