    After driving over an hour to get to a CVS, my wife and I needed some sustenance. Checking yelp we found kettle head brewing to be relatively close. Solid spot with a lot of great beers on hand. They had a fairly diverse menu. My wife and I both settled on their Smashburger and beer special. I thought the Smashburger was pretty good! Our beers were absolutely terrific as well. Industrial vibe that you get in most breweries these days. Overall, super stop!

    Fish tacos. Yummy!!!

    Been here several times and each time it's a winner. This time we weren't coming from skiing but from a hike in an unseasonably warm day and we were hungry. The place was hopping busy and it seemed like a town Halloween party. Superb ambiance. We entered and sat immediately, with just as quick service. First were their home brews. the Moon Rover IPA shone above the rest, smooth, hoppy, tasty. My other half's selection was the Brew Witch Project Sour. That was also superb. Food wise we ordered the popcorn chicken with fries; yummy. Enough for three for appetizers or an entire meal for one or two. I then ate the fish tacos and these were HUUUUUGE. I ate two and had to leave one alone, I was stuffed. Service was really amazing. Our waitress exceeded all expectations. For a casual, fun, time with friends or an apre-ski, this place beats all.

    I've been buying Kettlehead beer here for years, but somehow never got around to going for a meal. I'll go back for sure. They appear to be IPA focused, and they do a great job. (That's a big part of the 5* for food.) The menu is a little limited for a restaurant but quite good for a brew pub, and they all have to cool names. (4 burgers, 5 chicken sandwiches, 8 pizzas, ... See the pics) We got the "Tommy Pickles cheat meal" pizza. They have a brick oven and do thin crust; ours was crispy with a slight char - really a great crust. In addition to the cheese, the pie is dominated by the Grillo's dill pickles. There's also prosciutto (could be a bit more), pickled red onions (could be a lot more), a bit of fresh dill, and a drizzle of spicy ranch. It was delicious, but I don't think I'd want to eat more than a couple slices at once - a good pie to share or take a couple slices home for breakfast like we did. (I love dill, but ...) The other plates we saw coming out (burgers, etc.) looked really good too. We also had the Sweet Corn Caesar salad. My comment on this is that the heat dominated the corn a little more than I'd like. Overall, great IPA, great pizza, what's not to like? We're definitely going to go back again.

    Absolutely incredible place! My husband and I popped in here on Valentine's Day and were lucky enough to snag seats at the bar. There is a great selection of beer, the bartender was super friendly and welcoming and the food was great. Even the other patrons were friendly. It was a truly great experience and we will definitely be back the next time we travel to NH.

    Birria tacos

    Great service, beers were definitely above average, and game room is amazing as well. Food is definitely not as good as I thought it would be. Birria tacos - consommé is watery and lack of flavor Burger - lack of flavorful sauce. Juicy burger though Pizza - amazing dough. Lack of tomato sauce to complete it. Pork belly Rueben - loved everything in it but I couldn't taste the pork belly.

    We visited for the first time as a group of 5 on Sunday. The service was quick and nice, and the atmosphere was fun too. The arcade was a nice and fun touch, although one of the machines did take 4 quarters but didn't give us a game credit, so maybe that one needs a repair. The beer was great. I got a flight with Nosh, among other ones. I don't quite remember the other 3, but Nosh was great and my wife loved it too. For the food, do keep in mind that on Sundays, it's brunch menu, so no bbq stuff; breakfast food and burgers only. The wings were just regular wings, so nothing special. But the loaded pretzels were unexpectedly very unique and great tasting. I got the smash burger and it was great. A good, solid burger, nothing amazingly different but very solid. The fries, I think this is more of a personal preference, were a bit on the soggy side, but I like fries to be crispy, but they were great as well. Overall, a great experience.

    Vegetarian grain bowl (and mushroom burger in the background). Delicious!!

    We LOVE Kettlehead! My boyfriend and I have been taking many trips up to NH to go hiking during quarantine, and we find ourselves stopping at Kettlehead on the way back home time and time again. They have amazing beer (as expected), but they also offer unexpectedly incredible food! It is not often that a brewery has note-worthy food outside of your regular old soft pretzel, but Kettlehead really does it right. Favorites of ours are the mushroom burger, vegetarian grain bowl, and of course the pretzel bites. They are being very safe during COVID and always have such friendly service, too! Definitely worth your stop!

    Not much more to stay besides Kettlehead killed the pizza and the beers. Server was helpful and friendly even with it seeming to be a little lightly staffed for the number of people in for beer. Will return.

    Our most recent visit to Kettlehead was fantastic! We made our way over to the brewery after a full day skiing at Ragged. Our server was on top of everything and asked about allergies as we started to look over the menu. That was great because we did have a child in our party with an allergy. She assured us all items would be carefully attended to and she reviewed our choices with the chef. So thoughtful and professional! We all enjoyed our beers! So many great selections but my favorite remains Shuttlebus, the rye IPA. The pizza, tacos and pretzel bites and wings were a hit with the kids! We shared a Caesar salad and the house made chicken "nuggets" these are more like chunks of tenders! We shared a variety of sauces such as honey mustard, bbq and the beer cheese. Our only disappointment was that they no longer have a game room for the kids-bummer! Please put this spot on your list to visit and take home a four pack or two!

    Even the kids had a great time and loved the Mac and cheese!

    We had a great dinner at Kettlehead! The kids got the homemade mac and cheese (they loved it, but I think we loved it more). We got an array of items, Maple Buffalo tenders, truffle parm fries, burger, steak and fish tacos - they were all great! We will be back for sure!

    All meals were very good. We liked the pale ale and the IPA. Courtney was great. Would go back if in the area again.

    We are SO glad to have visited this little nano brewery!!! This place is in the middle of nowhere,…read moreset back on a long dirt road, downstairs in a wooden barn. Maybe only 200 sq ft (if that) space inside; 1 tall table with 4 high stools, 2 leather chairs, rest of the space are standing room only. A tight fit, but so cool inside! Needless to say, beer only - they don't have the license to serve beer in pints, but you can get the 4 oz samples and growlers to go. The place was PACKED when we were here; but everyone was very friendly and shared the small space together. They had 8 beers on tap; we had to try all 8! Everything was really solid; my fav was the stout and hubby liked the IPA. We didn't get to talk to the brew master as it was so crowded, but really enjoyed the experience and would recommend this place to anyone who is passing through or vacationing nearby. Just a side note - the bathroom situation is very interesting... the toilet is a cross between portal potty and compose. A bit high up and there's actually a step stool for the ladies to step up to "sit" on the seat. Bathroom is not dirty and doesn't smell...but it is definitely a hole for the waste to go in; no flushable water. By the toilet, under the bucket sink (with bud light tap as the water faucet control!) there' a bucket of dirt. Sign says to put a scoop in after you poop (ha!). Not an ideal situation for female, but still better than portal potty.

    Outstanding beer served amid stunning ambience. I feel like I stumbled in to the "Cheers" British…read morepub/Irish bar I've waited to find all my life! You'd think it's been here for over a century- bring your favorite snacks and forget the cares of the world for an hour or two!
