i was looking for a brunch place open in gloucester on a sunday at 1pm, and george's restaurant &…read morebar seemed to be the only place open (in winter season). i am so glad i found this place! it's on a corner after the main rotary, street parking available. lilly & other staff all provided excellent service and a warm welcome. i tried their florentine benedict with a single jumbo blueberry pancake. their florentine benedict is so scrumptious, loaded with spinach & tomato and perfectly poached eggs. the blueberry pancakes are huge and completely stuffed with blueberries. i was so pleased when i asked if they had real maple syrup, and the gentleman who served me went and got it right away. and they don't overcharge for it like most places! they also have plenty of drink options available which all sounded delicious. florentine benedict 9.5/10 blueberry pancakes 10/10 overall, the meal was absolutely delicious, clearly a hometown staple for locals, and for good reason. not only that, they're reasonably priced and i will definitely return when in the area for breakfast or brunch. ambiance: 4.8/5 food: 5/5 drinks: n/a services 5/5 george's restaurant & bar: 5/5

We came by for lunch after visiting the Salem Witch museum and had an ok experience. I loved the…read moreambiance, it had a very European pub feel. The staff was also very welcoming and friendly. The food however was ok. My friend ordered the harvest bowl with chicken and had the veggies pub curry with chicken. Honestly I was expecting the curry to be bomb since Irish pubs are known for their curries. My curry was a bit bland but the worst part was the rice that it was served on. It was so hard and crunchy, it was like they scraped the bottom of the pan where all the overcooked rice was. As an Asian person who eats rice almost every day, it was not pleasant to have to eat this. I notified our server who replaced it. It was a bit better but I still had bits of hard rice. Because of the bland flavor and hard rice, I don't recommend this dish. My friend said her harvest bowl was good so perhaps I should have gotten that.

I went to try Choate Bridge Pub in Ipswich with a couple of friends last week. I hadn't been for a…read morefew years. It's just as great as it always was. The food was great, fresh, and hot. Even the coleslaw and tartar sauce were made with care. The servers hustle like crazy. They treat you like good friends. Some diners may have frowned on service. Those girls never stopped, and they smiled and laughed. (Who doesn't need that these days?) It's sea scallop season, so even those scallops are expensive I had to do it. The scallop dinner w/fries and onion strings was a bit over $35, but there were 14 huge, right off the boat succulent scallops. The burgers also looked great. Get on over there.

**Classic local watering hole with solid food and atmosphere**…read more The Chote Pub is definitely a neighborhood spot through and through. You can tell the regulars get priority attention from the bartenders, but we eventually got taken care of too - just be prepared to be patient if it's busy and you're a new face. The food was good with very generous portions that definitely give you your money's worth. Drinks were well-made and hit the spot. We loved the setup for watching football - great views of the games from multiple angles around the bar. **Important heads-up: This is a CASH ONLY establishment.** Make sure you stop at an ATM before you arrive, or you'll be making a quick exit to find one. The vibe here is very much old-school local pub - if that's your scene, you'll love it. If you're looking for something more polished or trendy, this might not be your spot. We enjoyed the unpretentious atmosphere and will likely be back, but it's definitely worth knowing what you're walking into first. Bottom line: Come for honest pub fare, generous portions, cold drinks, and a genuine local experience. Just bring cash!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Nice pub with some great food…read more I got the Haddock Sandwich ($17 as of 5/2026) which was light and crispy. Haddock was cooked perfectly and the fries that came with it were great (I enjoyed their honey mustard which you can request on the side). Their chicken sandwiches also looked awesome and I'd give that a go the next time I was here.

If I lived in Portsmouth, Dwyer's would definitely be one of my go to places. Just off the main…read morestreet, this Irish Pub is welcoming, has a great draft selection, and great food. We visited on Friday night and sat at a table as the bar seating was pretty packed. Crowd was pretty chill - a mixture of people in their 20's having drinks & apps, and then older couples/families enjoying dinner. We were happy to see Smithwicks on the draft menu, and we also got a Downeast cider with a caramel/cinnamon rim. We ordered the house made mozzarella sticks, which were ginormous, crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, and all around delicious. We all opted with different types of burgers - sliders, fried chicken, and a pub burger. All were served with fries and were perfectly cooked. The coating on my fried chicken was crispy and flavorful. Service was awesome - our glasses were never left empty! Best of all, Dwyers has a free jukebox packed with favorites. Looking forward to coming back on our next visit to Portsmouth - we'll definitely be trying the deviled eggs, wings, and fried oreos!

On a dank spring (typical) early New England spring afternoon, we wandered in for a pre-dinner cocktail. The drinks are solid and reasonably priced. They do have a few high-end spirits and a few surprise special cocktails. There is also a good selection of local beers. We stopped by for a nightcap and were surprised that on a Wednesday night, they were packed and rocking to a live band. If you appreciate a good dive bar with personality, strong drinks, and a local crowd, this place is worth checking out.
