Fries
Jenn H.

My mom and I have driven to Vermont once a week lately to explore this area. We've eaten here each time. So far, we've tried- chicken wings, fries, Mac and cheese, pork dumplings, the burger, and the roast pork sandwich. We love sitting outside and having a nice lunch- there are shops around this little courtyard type area and the outdoor tables from the restaurant have umbrellas. There are also indoor tables. The menu is not huge but we were both easily able to find a couple things we would order. Service has been friendly as well. We especially love the fries. The dumplings were a bit doughy. I thought the pork sandwich was really good. I want to try the fried chicken or the lunchbox meal and my mom wants a salad on a future visit.

I love to support locally owned businesses when I can, but I was overall not impressed with Road Runner. The staff were really nice, but we waited well over 30 minutes for our food. If I could rate everything out of 5, the mac & cheese was a 2- it was creamy but there really wasn't any flavor, the pimento cheese fries a 3 because they were a bit more on the soggy end. Regular fries would be much better because the fries themselves were really nice and crisp... But the pimento itself wasn't good enough to be a great addition to the fries. The chicken however was definitely a 4. It was nice and juicy with just the right about of crunch. And I did like the overall ambiance. There's plenty of space inside to sit down, but a really nice outside section as well with umbrellas over the tables for shade. However, given the price ($45 total for what's shown in the picture), I don't think it is worth the return.

Burger with Brussels sprouts slaw only

Fantastic food fantastic service and great ambiance for a small sandwich shop I had the Nashville hot chicken meal with Mac and cheese and it was the bomb highly recommend the wife had the cheeseburger with the Brussels sprout slaw only get if your really hungry because it's a double and extremely good!!

Chicken sandwich
Kimberly L.

Great chicken sandwich!! Perfectly crisp on the outside. Probably one of the best chicken sandwiches I've had. I didn't get the Nashville hot, got less spicy. Perfect amount of spice. Friendly staff. Clean establishment. A pleasant seating area outside. Perfect for a casual meal.

Pimento cheese fries
Jennifer R.

We stopped in for lunch after it was recommended to us by someone at the Orvis outlet. An upside to this selection is that they share a parking lot in what is a busy downtown Manchester area. The menu offered a choice of sandwiches and salads. The person who recommended Road Runner mentioned the fries are particularly good and the person who took our order said they are known for their chicken sandwiches. These two recommendations made choosing our lunch easy. We both had the fried chicken sandwich and we split an order of one of the specialty fries -- pimento cheese. We choose to sit inside though they have a nice outdoor seating area. The sandwich was good! It was fried chicken and Brussel sprout slaw with a side of pickled vegetables. I really enjoyed the pickled vegetables (onions, carrots and cucumbers). The fries were good too. Overall if you are in Manchester, give Road Runner a try.

Pimiento cheese fries

One of the best lunch spots I have been to - I am still dreaming of the burger and fries. Wish I had gotten a hot chicken to go. Delish!!

Salad special - yum!
Erin H.

Such a great find tucked away in this plaza! The food is all scratch made and so fresh. I had a special - "That Ain't No Caesar Salad" with roasted Peruvian chicken and it was AMAZING! Other orders in my group were the kids cheeseburger and the fried chicken sandwich - both got rave reviews. Servers at the counter were super helpful with recommendations and very friendly. Perfect spot for lunch with plenty of outdoor tables for a nice day.

Chicken sandwich, pimento cheese fries and OKOB (Oklahoma Onion Burger) ... Chef's kiss!
Dawn Z.

Bring your big appetite for big flavor, big portions and big heart! Road Runner did not disappoint. Our cashier taking our order at the counter was super patient as we debated on what to get. I got the specialty chicken sandwich, which was delicious, da hubs got the Oklahoma Onion Burger (OKOB) and we shared the pimento cheese fries. We barely got through half the fries - seriously generous portion. I accidentally ordered a second chicken breast by mistake and the server offered to take it off our bill with no fuss. If we didn't live 3+ hours away i gladly would have taken it home with me! Bathroom was clean and service was friendly. Visited here during leaf peeping season and between lunch and dinner but it wasn't overly crowded. We got served and found a seat in no time. Looking forward to visiting again.

Best roast pork I've had outside of Philly. Period. Great sandwich shop that has fast service and a quiet vibe. Came here on the way to a gig and myself and my whole cohort really enjoyed our time here. My friend also got the roast pork and we had the same reaction when we bit: "OH WOW." Perfectly roasted pork with a sharp provolone and broccoli rabe, it was a true treat. The fried chicken sandwich also looked insanely good and my friend who ordered it was quite happy with the heat on it too. Love the little side of pickled vegetables as they provided some nice brine to cut through some of the richness. The bread was soft and cradled the contents well, a thoroughly composed sandwich! Would come back if I am ever in Manchester.

burger and fries
Sophia P.

the hand cut fries are worth stopping by - looking forward to returning when in the area again!

We had a wedding rehearsal dinner (40 people) and welcome party (150 people) over the holiday…read moreweekend and it was wonderful. Shout out to Amy who helped us plan the menus and guided us through the process. She helped me with the gift bags and made sure every detail was covered. The food, the drinks and service were great. Our guests had a wonderful time! Thank you Amy and Pearl's Place and Pantry,

We've come to Pearl's two years in a row on our annual trip to Manchester, and I can't think of…read moremuch they could do to improve. This time, C and I split all the meats (brisket, ribs, sausage, turkey, pulled pork) with collard greens and coleslaw. It was more than we could handle, so some of it went home to a very happy dog. I struggled to pick a favorite meat of the five. Possibly the fall-off-the-bone tender ribs. Maybe it's the spicy sausage. But don't sleep on the unassuming turkey either, smoked to perfection. Coleslaw was crunchy and cool. Collard greens were tender and flavorful. The pickled vegetables are a great palate cleanser. And if you're an IPA fan, the fact that you can just get a can of Alchemist's Heady Topper might be reason alone to come. It's consistently one of the top rated beers in the country. Bonus points for being open every day of the week. Even with our weird Sunday to Tuesday schedule, we can eat here any time.
