    Pretzel bites
    Celina G.

    We are not a family that drinks beer (okay, one of us really does), but Saco River Brewing made us feel right at home. Stop for a bite right before shopping along the street. Fuel up with freshly made pizzas and beer (if you enjoy). The Brezel Bites appetizer and two pizzas - the Pepperoni and the Saco - were enough to satisfy the four of us for lunch. The Pepperoni was standard, but still good. My favorite was the Saco, which was an appetizing combination of proscuitto and porchetta. Crispy and nothing burnt, an extra plus! We actually tried a flight of beer just because we were at a brewery. One of the choices was actually hard seltzer, a good choice for the non-beer drinkers. The waitress was incredibly nice and gave us an extra pour that was on the specials. We sat in the spacious upstairs area. The mild fall day got plenty of people to sit outside on the patio, where you have a view of the railroad.

    We were seated immediately but apparently greeter forgot to tell waitress that we were there. We almost left when after 15 minutes we weren't even offered water. Restaurant is clean and looks new. We ordered pepperoni pizza which had tons of cheese and just enough pepperoni. Also ordered mountain berry salad. Only four raspberries and one was moldy. About six blueberries. Was supposed to have goat cheese but only saw a few bits. Lots of chicken which was good.

    Good brewery in North Conway. Walking distance from where we stayed. Pretzels and wings were very good.

    Friendly service, great beer, good food, historic location with rooftop seating. Great to have another local brewery in the area.

    Menu for draft beer, wine, beer to go, and dessert

    The perfect spot to grab a bite and sit outside. The beer was great and the seltzer was the best I've ever had. We ordered nachos and appetizers for the kids. Everything was fresh and flavorful, and the service was above and beyond!

We found Will to be an excellent bartender as well as friendly and pleasant! People make every business, and she does Hobbs well! I really do enjoy their Caesar salad, adding salmon. The salmon is usually extremely delicious and these two visits they were the same; however, our most recent visit the blackening seasoning was very heavy. I did not mind it and found it to be deliciously yummy! My wife enjoyed her Southwest, egg rolls and small Caesar salad as well! Though it's a bit of a drive from where we are staying, it is well worth the trip! Unfortunately, this will probably be our last visit during our annual sojourn to this area. We're looking forward to visiting again next year!

My friend started with a nice Cold brew (I'm sorry I forget which one) but he liked it and had a few. I tried the Pumpkin brew cocktail which was really tasty. We shared the maple whiskey chicken tenders and they were so delicious. He ordered steak tips with garlic mashed and green beans and I ordered a cheeseburger with French fries. Both were cooked perfectly as requested, we really enjoyed our meal. The atmosphere was really comfortable and our server Kelly was very friendly and so helpful with the menu as well as the details about the brewery and the restaurant upstairs as well (we were trying to figure out what was up there as we sat and enjoyed our Meal). I joined their rewards program before we left because I know we will return. We look forward to next visit that is for sure. Thanks!

If you don't like crowds though, be prepared - this is always a tight one. I love big crowds and busy spaces, personally, so I was in my element! * If you want a sitting spot (for example at one of the tasting room outdoor tables) the reality is that you'll have to show up at 10am or even before, for the 11am opening, and wait in line. Live music was on all day and it was fun to watch people in traditional costumes dance! I loved the merch this year! The Oktoberfest mug is beautiful. Also got a tile, tee shirt, socks, some cans... As for the beer offerings - I admit I am not a beer drinker. I pretty much only drink beer from Schilling - but I've learned a few things from them and going to their fests... I don't like pilsners and light beers at all, or any "fruity" flavors. I love IPAs, and I can do marzens and darker beers. There was 50+ breweries represented at this Oktoberfest, some from as far as Germany, and a couple of Quebec and Ontario breweries too! All volunteers were friendly and knew their stuff. Overall this was another great day, with once again the weather on our side. I attended with my boyfriend (on a designated driver ticket) and a friend from town, and we all had a great time! I'll be back for Oktoberfest 2027 :)

Sometimes the unplanned stops end up being the most enjoyable part of a day. The outdoor area was a big part of what made the visit enjoyable. There's a really nice outdoor bar with picnic tables, lawn chairs and games, so you can grab a beer and actually settle in for a while. When we were there, they had a band playing live music and the whole atmosphere was lively without feeling overwhelming. It was one of those afternoons where people were clearly there to hang out, have a few drinks, listen to some music and enjoy themselves. They had a decent selection of beers, and what we tried was pretty good. Nothing I had was quite at the level where I was immediately thinking about buying a four-pack to take home, but everything was enjoyable and well worth trying. For me, the atmosphere was almost as important as the beer itself, and this place definitely delivered on that side. The staff were also very welcoming. Our bartender outside was particularly friendly and talkative, and it made the whole experience feel much more personal. I always appreciate that at a brewery. You don't necessarily need a lengthy conversation every time you order a beer, but having someone behind the bar who genuinely seems happy to talk with customers makes a difference. They also serve food, although we didn't order anything during our visit, so I can't really give an opinion on it. We did hear good things from other people there, though, and there seemed to be plenty of folks enjoying the food along with their drinks. We really enjoyed stumbling across this place and would definitely come back, especially with some friends. I could easily see spending a summer afternoon here with a few beers, some food, live music and a group of people. It has a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to stick around rather than just have one drink and leave. A very good accidental find, and one we'll be happy to revisit.

It has a super cute elevated barn feel as the brewery is literally a barn. They have a Biergarten and cornhole, the only downside is you cannot do a flight and go to The Biergarten.
