    Stubby's Place is one of Candia's best kept secrets. This local nondescript looking breakfast and lunch place is conveniently located off Route 101 at Exit 3, right next to the big cell tower. Just go straight through the 4-way intersection (3 way stop control) and hang left. The place is open 4:30AM-2:00PM (Mon-Sat) and 5:00AM-1:00PM (Sun). Stubby's Place is a favorite place amongst the locals and regulars to gather and share the latest happenings around town. The atmosphere inside has that hometown country restaurant feel, with counter seating with an open kitchen/grill and 7 tables in the bright dining room. The owner David does the cooking here. The walls are decorated with several framed pictures including big frames with hundreds of customers pictures and the back wall has a collection NASCAR memorabilia/pictures. The breakfast menu offers the typical lineup of eggs, omelets, breakfast sandwiches, pancakes, waffles, French toast, hash, home fries, and sides. The coffee brewed here is Donahue Bros. The lunch menu offerings include sandwiches,burgers, soups, chili, fries, chicken tenders, and beans n' franks. The prices here are pretty reasonable. Daily Specials are also offered including American chop suey, meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy, and on Fridays, fried fish (haddock). I stopped in here for breakfast very recently before my shift. Seating here is first come first served. I was offered fresh brewed coffee ($1.50) as I took a seat. The coffee here was good, slightly strong, the way I enjoy it. There were several groups of local seniors carrying on conversations across several tables. They were discussing the recent flooding in the area, and which roads were shut down. I overheard that several roads around Kmart in Hooksett were closed due to flooding, which clued me in to take a different route to work and instead drive through Candia and Deerfield to get to Concord. I ordered a Western Omelet ($5.00) with American cheese ($0.50). served with homefries and toast. The 2 egg omelet was halfmoon shaped mix with eggs, and plenty of green peppers, onions, ham, and cheese, pretty good tasting. The homefries were very good, which were soft fresh cut potatoes and browned on the grill. The wheat toast was already buttered. Overall, the breakfast here was pretty good and standard, nothing fancy, just home cooking. The service was very friendly and attentive. The waitress walked around the dining room with a coffee pot refilling coffee mugs. I was given two much needed top offs on the coffee, to start my long day. I was greeted by the waitress when I entered and exited the place, a great sign that they appreciate my business. I did make it to Concord by dodging a few newly formed ponds along the side of several back roads.

    Greasy spoon. Honestly, it's a dump but the people are nice and the food hits the spot. Cash only which is annoying.

    They are cash only and the staff (Betsy and Dave) have quite the personality, filling the small dining area.

    Worth the wait that is for sure! We went during a week day for a late lunch over the holidays and…read moreit was an hour wait. I can only imagine what it's like in the weekends. So many options it was hard to choose. I ended up being really basic and getting the grilled cheese and soup, but it was so good. I also added a side of poutine and it was perfect. I also had to try the buffalo chicken balls, they were great. My husband had the smoked chicken pie and it was massive. He really enjoyed it. Service was also really great.

    Local to New Hampshire, but live about 20 minutes away from this restaurant…read more I wouldn't recommend Saw this restaurant advertised on the local television station. We're traveling back from an antique shop in Maine and decided to try this place out. Got to the restaurant around 3 PM were seated right away the seating that we were in only had three tables and it was quite busy as it was in the walking area to and from the back seating and the butcher so there's a lot of traffic in that seating area It was quite noisy in the back seating area as it carried over to the front We were made aware of the specials and today was buy one get one lobster rolls. I was excited to hear about that because I'm a super fan of seafood and lobster included so of course I went with the $25 portion without the bread because I didn't want the bread. You can tell the difference in my photo of lobster versus other photos mine looks as if it was the bottom of the barrel As for the flavor and taste of the lobster, I was not a fan of it. It was very dry rubbery it seemed to be soaked in some sort of an oil or something that didn't compliment it at all as for the portion size that was good I will not go back for buy one get one lobster roll I don't believe this is fresh lobster this seems frozen not good at all My husband's burger, he enjoyed the chicken portion of the burger, but the actual burger itself was burnt on both sides, making it very tough and dry to eat When the plate arrived, it looked a little un appetizing. It had two slices of pickle crossed over and then the burger. I think the plate that they used could be changed maybe use a wood block as it is a butcher shop as well. All of the staff were dressed appropriately. You could tell that they worked there. Our server waitress was very friendly very attentive to our needs. The place was very clean. Our total bill came to $63 and we left a $20 tip which I didn't find to be unreasonably priced for the amount of food we got but again as for flavoring of the food I was not a fan I won't return

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.
