Driving back to Vermont from Lake Winnipisaukee NH, knew we would have to stop for lunch, so I…read moreYelped and this place came up. Little did I know that it is a local chain and much loved by locals. And I can see why! We arrived at 12:30 pm on a Monday and the place was packed. By the time we left at 1:30 there were plenty of tables available, we just happened to arrive at the peak. They took our name and mobile number, and texted us when the table was ready. Smooth, no problem! Server (Michelle) was wonderful, good menu, and the food was good. I had a Tex Mex egg-potato-vegetable dish, spouse had a similar bowl, and we loved it. Super efficient, friendly, well-run. Highly recommended!

A couple years later we tried it again and we all enjoyed it very much. The waitresses have always been friendly and if something isn't right they will fix it. Its a little loud when its full but has a very homey feel. I did get a picture but had already started eating and so the butter and syrup are smeared all over the top. Lol Great spot with great food and friendly people!

Based on some great Yelp reviews, we took a little detour and stopped here for lunch. We were…read moregreeted and welcomed immediately. There were several tables inside and a few picnic tables outside, looking over the train trestle and the river. I ordered a Rachel sandwich and they were able to offer a choice of bread so I opted for multi grain. My husband got the BLT. Both were delicious and very filling. French fries or hot, served with just the right amount of salt. It is counter service, but the lady who took our order brought our sandwiches out to the picnic tables. There's a regular flush bathroom inside. I also noticed on the door as we entered that they do offer a cash price discount. Parking was not an issue.

Fresh food: imagine that! Great variety of wellmade chips, meats and other foods! We need more of…read morethese places all over!

I can't say enough good things about this place. The owner is fantastic. I'm gluten free and she…read moremakes her own (delicious) products. She's even asked before if I have flavor requests for the gf muffins. All of the staff is friendly, too. Beverage selection is great and they have fun seasonal latte flavors. Best draw of this place is the latte and chai flights! I've seen them other places for crazy expensive prices. The flights, like everything here, are very reasonably priced and a fun way to try different flavors. I've noticed in my time going here that they always keep up with trends, like adding lemonade flights and energy drinks. I don't usually order hot food, but I've loved the sandwiches I've tried. Like the drinks, they have quality ingredients and fun recipes. I've visited off hours and during rushes, and the staff is always prompt and organized. The atmosphere is great for hanging out and they keep close ties to the community, such as selling art and allowing by local businesses to display their business cards. I recently stopped buying coffee out to save money, but I'll absolutely this local business whenever I'm craving a treat.

This place is great. It's pricey...so be prepared for that…read more My brother got the avocado toast, ( I think thats what it was) and loved it. I didn't get any food. I ordered a smoothie. Banana/strawberry and holy shit it was incredible!!! I. LOVED. IT!!! Damn it was good. I think it was like $12 tho? Am I crazy to think...meh, it's ok, (the price) I was on a holiday and you are supposed to enjoy whatever? haha!! I would normally never spend that much on a freaking smoothie! HOWEVER! Once we got into Manchester, VT....we saw another The Works Bakery...I SHO DID get another one lol. I was surprised to see that this place is a chain. When we were in Concord...it kind of felt like this was a place exclusive to Concord. Nah, it's not. Thats ok tho. I got a smoothie at a coffee house in just outside Bar Harbor and it was absolute garbage. So it was nice to have one where they actually have you what you ordered. Most places in Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire all allow dogs. I travel with my little Yorkie wherever I go. Alfred loves to travel haha! He is my child...seeing as I do not have any human kids. My dog is my life. So it's nice when you go into places and they welcome dogs. This place....does not tho. Thats boooo! HOWEVER! I TOTALLY understand! I TRULY do! I travel with my dog everywhere, but yes, I do realize this place is a restaurant and they all have their rules. I just love restaurants that allow dogs haha! I am not one of those psychos that will tear a place apart about not allowing dogs. I am one who actually respects policies like this. And yes, I bring my dog with me bc it's just me...and my dog. He is a 6lb Yorkie who I will never leave alone nor would I ever kennel him. I say all this bc so many people out there judge others who bring their dogs everywhere. He is a family member. He comes with me. Just go to this place wherever you run into one. It really is a great place. They were all SO nice in there even when they asked my take Alfie back outside. OH for the record too...I carry my little man everywhere with me. He's not like...running around everywhere...marking his territory lol Atmosphere in this location is very nice. Kinda dark and Lodgy feeling. Its nice. Located too in what I am assuming is a historic building. Noce view of the downtown area too if you take you lunch or whatever outside to their outdoor seating...which I am guessing is probably brought in now...seeing as it is almost December. Ok thats it. I know I rambled a lot here, but I feel it all fits with my review. I ramble a lot to begin with. If you read this...thank you! If you didn't...I will sleep in 5 mins and sleep like a baby :) Thank you The Works for a wonderful first experience. I live in Idaho. Wish we had you here. Thanks for reading YelperWorkers!

I asked the cashier. His answer? "You're at a rest stop, wha'da'ya expect." I did not think I was at Fenway or a ski resort. I was at a Common Man that is no longer for the common man. Not to mention it used to be a nice place to stop. Now there's stuff jammed everywhere. I have always respected the Common Man chain and their good hospitality. I need to rethink patronizing any of their establishments.

Wonderful little lunch stop!…read more It was full of locals and regulars and on a wait for lunch. At that moment I knew I had picked a good spot! We chilled with the folks up front for a good bit before getting a table. It seemed we were the only people that had not been here 30-40 times before. Most people didn't even want menus and the sweet server ladies just brought them food without conversation at all. It's kind of old school feeling inside. It's an open kitchen and you can see all of the action. Inside is all wooden and rustic. It reminds me of my grandmas house in Camden TN. Not sure why. It's just really comfortable in here to me. The tile and fireplaces make super cozy. This place has some of the best chili that I have had in a long time. I dig the fact they give tortilla shops automatically with the chili. Win!! Thick and meaty and oh so filled with spice and love!! Cheese on top was a nice touch too. Really liked it! My French dip was fucking killer!! So damn big too! I could only eat half of it because of the the fire ass chili I had already eaten. French fries were battered type. Nothing wrong with that!! I drove around with this sandwich for two days of travel and ate it on the road later. Stupendous French dip!! C had an open faced roast beef sandwich. FIRE!! The green beans were so pretty and fresh too. She could barely get 1/3 down, lol. It was a ton of food. Economical! Hometown feel! Good people working and eating here! I love it!! I'm not even sure I could find the place again. I sure am glad I did the first time! '26 -39
