Food was excellent. Had the pot roast. Tender and delicious. Waitress was friendly and attentive. Sat upstairs in the old barroom. Great venue. I will go back. read more

Love this big barn of a restaurant. The floor for upstairs dining is a beautiful spacious area. Tables are spread out well. Crackers and cheeses are offered before your meal. I've had their baked stuffed haddock that is delicious. Salads were fresh from a garden. Yankee Pot roast is tender and certainly a favorite. Our server was accommodating, considerate & sweet. Knowing what we may need as he checked in with us. We were never rushed while deciding what to order. Music in the back ground was a warm welcome if you were a teenager in the mid 60's to 70's and appreciated easy rock. It's so nice to feel an at home presence at the Common Man. read more

Stopped here for lunch the other day and had a really good meal. I love that you can go get crackers and cheese to start for free. The service was super friendly and quick, and came back many times. I got the fried chicken wrap and it was great. Overall food was a little pricey but it was good! read more

Common man can close the doors because their menu was so bad. The service is bad. The best part about the meal is the cheese and crackers before the meal. If you order the onion soup, the French onion soup you don't get any broth you get all bread the food is terrible. Terrible terrible terrible place. read more

This local chain has restaurants all over the state! It was recommended by our host as well as TA. It was packed when we arrived so we opted to eat at the upstairs bar. The service was great and the food was perfect comfort fare. I ordered two autumn specials a fall salad with feta and sweet pumpkin seeds and the pumpkin ravioli. My friend had the Cobb salad with grilled chicken and a fall drink. All were delicious! read more

It is a super cute restaurant with amazing homemade pink bread. There is a cheese and crackers station that is self serve. They have a large kids menu and offer many comfort food options like chicken pot pie. It is pretty casual and has a big parking lot. My friend and I each got one of their bowl options which was pretty good, and tasted fresh. Definitely worth checking out if you are in the area, and ask for extra pink bread! read more

Stopped in for a quick dinner this past Friday on our way to the White Mountains. Hard to find a parking spot with the lot full and no clear direction as to where to park. The interior was well taken care of and the tables set with simple utensils. I ordered the meatloaf which came with a side of mashed potatoes. Both were so very bland and tasteless. The meatloaf was more mushy almost like the hamburg had been put in a food processor. Others at our table also noted that lots of salt was needed on their meals too. Dessert was a misfire for one of my table companions as we had ordered two sundaes and an apple empanada. They delivered the two sundaes and a crème brûle . They apologized and took the brûle away to get the empanada but we had finished our sundaes and were still waiting for their dessert to arrive. All that time the server never came back to the table to check on us or apologize. Don't think I'd go back here again read more

I usually order a safe item like steak. This time I ventured to a new dish. Now I love any dish that is marsala based, be it chicken or veal. Today on the special menu was duck marsala. I love duck and as I mentioned, I love marsala. Do not order this dish, as the duck was soggy and the sauce was not marsala. I could not eat this. Luckily I had bread to fill me up. Back to basics and back to steak. read more

We arrived a little late for dinner but they were super accommodating. The decorations are very farm style and cute. There is a free cheese and crackers table. Arancini super crispy outside cheesy inside Bacon wrapped shrimp - tender and came with a side of cornbread Apple walnut chicken - chicken is slightly dry but the sweet walnut sauce is amazing Steak tips - tender but fully cooked when we request medium rare Lobster corn chowder - too salty for me but creamy read more

Terrible from start to finish, dirty table, waiter never came, bad drinks, food took forever, food was gross, never got water, never got check. Awful and will not be returning. read more

We sat upstairs in the pub area, which was nice. The martinis were very nice. We ordered the pretzel loaded pretzel tots, which were okay at best. We also ordered burgers medium rare. Medium well to well is what we received. We liked the charred taste, but that is it. The fries were light and crispy, but need more seasoning. Overall a bit disappointing. read more

My friends and I couldn't have asked for a better meal than what we had at The Common Man in Concord, NH. The pot roast was likely the best I have ever had and my friends raved about their chicken dinner. The white chocolate that came with the check was like whipped cream on ice cream. The service was also excellent. I wish we had The Common Man Restaurant in my home state of Massachusetts. read more

All I can say is the food is so good. Waiter was nice! Good place! Quiet and ambient place.

Racist. Unfriendly, prejudiced service. An establishment where you will receive poor service if you are not white or someone in your party is not white. Backstory: My mostly white family was in Concord for a wedding. We went for dinner Friday night. (My quietest aunt described the night as horrific.) At the restaurant, we watched people who got there after us get seated and offered bread while we waited standing for an hour and a half. When we got to the table, we were told the manager had said we could not order alcohol. I was with my family of 60 and 70 year olds, all of us completely sober. On top of that, the waiters seemed to not hide the fact they were avoiding us. They did not serve us bread, either. So basically, we ate crackers for 2.5 hours before finally receiving food. The food was decent. The experience--disheartening and frustrating. read more

This was our second attempt to come here as it was too busy last time. The service was very good and the staff friendly. With respect to the food, it had excellent flavor. From the lobster corn chowder to the pot pie to the sweet corn bacon raviolis, they all tasted great. The only issue we had and what kept this from 5 stars was the temperature of the food. The Arancini balls tasted great, but were ice cold in the center. They did take them back and returned them fully cooked. But after we left my wife told me that her raviolis were also cold in the middle, but she didn't want to be "one of those people" and complain a second time. All in all, we would definitely go back and try other things. read more

Food was mediocre. Asked for medium well and got medium rare. How do you mess up a hamburger? That's how. Asked for it to be fixed and that failed. My date waited forever for her drink. read more

I could go on and on but the fact that I ordered a chicken sandwich that WAS NOT blackened and they had the nerve to bring me precooked chicken patty with their "blackened" scrapped off and tried to pass it off on me...unacceptable Never again I was a regular. I'm done read more

My boyfriend and I came on a Saturday for a birthday lunch for his dad. It was quite busy with a full parking lot by 12:30, but you can drive down the dead end road to loop around and park in their overflow parking. There was an hour wait so we walked upstairs to the bar and managed to find seating at a high top. Since it was his dad's birthday, we ordered his very first filet mignon, medium rare, but it came out well done. My boyfriend's steak tips were nice and juicy. My burrata salad had flavorful veggies and peaches, but overall it was a bit lackluster. I also got the ahi on the side, but it wasn't anything to write home about. We all got the lobster corn chowder to start, which was good with tender lobster pieces, but the chowder was heavy on the butter and salt, and I wish the cornbread wasn't so bite-sized. read more

Food was amazing, servers were professional, I like their fireplace :) I like the room decor and the live music!

Had an early dinner with family. The common man is always great for comfort food. We ordered the muscles as an appetizer they were plump and juicy and full of flavor. For dinner, we had two chicken pot pies, one pot roast, and baked scallops with a side order of mac & cheese. All the food was very good and as always was a nice portion. Amelia was our lovely server, very attentive and helpful, yet she didn't hang over the table. We ordered two desserts that were very large and tasted amazing. I've been going to Common Man's for more than 40 years, still haven't had a bad meal. read more

Went last night for takeout. All the staff were pleasant and welcoming. Food order was processed and finished quickly. The quality of the food was as equally great. Except for one detail that is soooo easy not to screw up but, in my opinion, a huge screw up.. I made it very clear that I DID NOT want anything to do with a PICKLE near my food.. I get home, open my meal and it reeks of pickle juice. And not only that, the pickle was stuffed under my sandwich and fries, which now 1/3 of my meal has soaked up pickle juice. It'd be like someone taking a dump on a Picasso. That's what your worker did to my meal and experience so I thank you for that. Also tipped the take out decently as well so it's just like Come on Man!!!! Get it?! either way, I'll be back but now I know what to watch out for with you pickle lovers. P.s My dog wouldn't even eat the pickle. YEAHHH RIIIGHHT!! read more

Great, prompt, courteous service and a wide, diverse menu of hearty and yet slightly contemporary American cuisine. Food is nothing exceptional, and some items, while ambitious and garnering of excitement in description, miss the mark in either below average execution or due to an absence of flavor. Worth at least a visit or two, given continued success to support numerous locations. read more

The food here is excellent! I got grilled steak with a bacon Chimichurri sauce. It was incredible. Two of us ate there for $70 which included an app and dessert. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I never had to ask for refills on my drink and everything was brought to us quickly. I can't wait to go back! read more

They have a sign above the door that says "don't want to wait -order something and we can send you packing " which I thought was interesting until we went to be seated. we had called ahead and according to the messages they were sending us on our phone we only had 15 minutes to wait, then 10 minutes to wait, then six minutes to wait so we showed up early earlier than our 530 time - Only to learn that they take walk-ins ahead of Call-ins ...so even though we were told that we have a table in 15 minutes just seconds before we walked in they seated another large party. We were told that we could be seated after they finished which would be probably an hour and 20 minutes We weren't the only people they did that to- apparently that's their system (as they explained) And although they didn't lack for business they had many disgruntled customers walking away after thinking they had seating - so their explanation was they didn't take reservations they just took Call-in but if somebody came in before the call-in got there, they got preference and the call-ins were just out of luck - and hangry read more

Not sure why they offer call ahead if they don't abide by it. They were just taking people as they walked in whether you called ahead or not. Disappointing! read more

We have gone many times and normally enjoy this cozy restaurant, however last Sunday when we went for my grandmother's 88th bday my espresso martini was 3/4 full, grandmother's steak was tough, and my mother got food poisoning with Asian bowl. She was disappointed that it the bowl only had peppers. No green veggies. Yes, she called and told management about the food poisoning, which kicked in a few hours later and lasted until the next day. The drinks also take a long time to come. So we will be taking a break from here. I do like that they are a community based restaurant that helps Ukraine, but they seem to be going downhill in quality. read more

The food was good but the staff to us and everyone else in general was by far the slowest and inefficient I've ever seen. They missed food orders for us and multiple other tables around us. If you come here, expect extremely long wait times but some tasty food. read more

This was worthy of a 4 1/2 stars, we arrived just as they opened for the afternoon and we were a party 10 and the staff and kitchen handled everything fabulously!! We had a variety from a great menu with lots of choices and everything was delicious with large portions. A nice benefit is a cheese and cracker table that is free, downside is they have a specialty mix and it would be great to be able to buy some to take home !! (Because it was delicious!!) read more

we ordered haddock and it came with a side of white rice and cut zucchini. the rice was dry and plain. no seasoning. the haddock only had crushed crackers on top no flavor and the veggies were not flavorful either. we had the south west chicken. it was very hot and spicy which was not indicated in a rating system. it was not very good. we don't usually leave reviews but because eating out is so expensive you should get your moneys worth. we feel the quality of food did not match the reputation this restaurant has had in the past. sorry common man:( below average read more

I had the grill room steak and it was exquisite cooked to perfection. Our server, Talia, was also excellent, refilled all of our drinks quickly and would check in when necessary. The manager was great as well and hooked us up with some salt and pepper for us to bring back to our hotel because he overheard we had no seasoning. Would come here again next time I'm in town. read more

I've only experienced the common man one time so far and I was not disappointed! I got a Mexican bowl that was good, but the highlight was the banana bread old fashioned. This was a very exciting take on an a classic drink. The service was great and friendly, and the ambiance was different! Not different in a bad way by any means just something new that you don't experience every where you go! read more

When we found out that one of our favorite restaurants does catering, we knew we had to hire them to cater our wedding. The food was absolutely delicious and left our guests raving about it!

Decided to try lunch here instead of the usual dinner. Im glad we did! The pork belly app on the cornbread? Outrageous. I could eat that every day. I haven't had something that tasty and creative in a while. Thai meatballs were....interesting. Steak was a little too rare on the salad. Soft chicken tacos were good but needed a little kick or something. Coke products!! Waitress was super nice too. Common man is reliable for sure. read more

Just went to eat here yesterday afternoon and the food was really good and the place felt really warm and inviting! However the service was not that great, I feel like the lady helping us had something bothering her outside of work and she was bringing her problems to work.

What a popular place! We took the last parking spot at the restaurant but they do have a parking lot across the way which is where our friends parked. As I said, a super popular spot so it was packed. They have a seat yourself upstairs which is what we did but that was completely fine! Four of us sat at a couch table and the other three at a high table. Instead of bread, they have serve yourself cheese and crackers. They had three cheese options: white cheddar, a garlic butter, and a horseradish one. So that was fancy! I ordered the pulled pork macaroni. Kind of a let down a little because the pork/onion was pretty sweet. That would've been fine if the pork to macaroni ratio was good but there was a lot of pork and not that much macaroni. I also ordered the chocolate ding dang dong. I'm a chocolate lover so it was good but it needed a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Service was great! read more
