What a great bar!!! I use to go to the previous owners bar before it burnt down called State…read moreStreet. Statey has just recently opened up, which replaced State Street & while I live in Vegas now this definitely was on my list of stops while home visiting. I finally got to go in last night to check it out. It is very big & kinda open but not too open around the dinning room area. They have plenty of seating on the floor & around the bar. It was great to see Mo a long time bartender still working for them. They were having karaoke night & they have a nice little stage out back for the "maybe soon to be famous singers to perform on". It started @ 7/8pm (can't remember) & went to midnight. No cover charge to get in. It wasn't very packed here on the Thursday night I went, but I have heard that it does get very packed to the point that you may not be able to get in. So keep that in mind when heading over to check them out! I didn't get anything to eat as I was not hungry. My cousin got the fish sandwich with tatter tots. He said his sandwich was good & I had a few tatter tots which were yummy! They still have their famous lobster roll for a crazy, reasonable, too good to be true price! My Mom had asked me to check on this for her as she loves their (State Street) lobster rolls. I do want to go back before I head home to have one as I have in the past & it was very tasty & they fill the bun up with plenty of lobster meat. They have one of my favorite flavored vodkas, blueberry so I was drinking those up. It was nice & cozy in there, temperature was just right. The bathrooms were clean & they have more then one stale inside their rest room so I never had to wait. State Street had less bathrooms & that would make for a long wait when needing to relieve the bladder. I saw some familiar faces while I was in there. Their door guy for that night, Aaron was a really nice guy. Friendly & smiling all the time. You definitely need to check this place out. Stop by for a drink (or two) and/or a bite to eat! I will be back before heading home & on my future trips back to NH!! So happy that they brought State Street back!!!! Thank You!!!

Plenty of lot parking so that's always a plus. We walked in on Friday for lunch and it was fairly full but we were seated quickly and orders taken. Very rustic ambience and service was quick. Unfortunately, the food was just ok and didn't knock my socks off. We ordered the Brussel sprouts, pork belly steam buns and the margherita pizza. Brussels were fried nicely but the ginger sesame sauce was very strong and I would probably preferred the sauce on the side. Pork belly buns were just ok as well. We were here for the pizza so were excited to try it - pizza unfortunately was just ok as well. Food is subjective and always based on preference so please take this review with a grain of salt - pizza was a bit doughier than I'd like - I prob should've asked for it to be well done if even possible and the sauce tasted heavy on the oregano - not something I'm a big fan of. All in all - not bad but not great. I just had such high expectations - maybe a different pizza might've changed my mind. But def don't skip out on going next door to try some samples and get some bread - the bread is amazingly delicious.

We had a Mediterranean plate that was huge and delicious, chicken fingers were good (don't come with fries), and the Brussels sprouts were actually crispy and delicious - 10/10 sprouts. Beer selection was huge but a little weak in terms of variety and quality, kind of every day stuff you'd find at an Applebees or something.

Overall: Great sports bar, mediocre (at best) restaurant. Stop in for drinks and a game but I'd…read moreskip it as a dinner spot. Food: 2 Drinks: 5 Service: 1 Value: 3 Atmosphere: 4 Food: I ordered the French dip sandwich with tater tots. The sandwich was awful. Bread seemed stale, the meat was chewy, and the dipping jus was tiny. The best part was the tater tots, that clearly came out of a frozen bag. Drinks: Outstanding beer selection. 119 different beers available! Service: Generally very slow. The place wasn't super full but I had to get the bartenders attention to get anything. I didn't get service a single time without having to flag someone down. Value: Beers were decent price, but $21 for that sandwich was egregious. Atmosphere: The bar area was huge with tons of TV options. There were also lots of tables and a really nice outdoor area.

We also had a burger, which was very good as well, cooked to the right temp and not too much with the toppings. Fries are amazing along with the ranch. Last but not least don't get me started on the cookie pan, that was unbelievable and hit the spot and was enough to take home. I dream about the cookie pan often. Overall really enjoyed my dinning experience at The Goat!

We have been going to The GOAT for years and have always had great service and good food. However,…read moretoday was a game changer. We sat at the bar and were ignored for about 5 minutes- and not because it was busy or under staffed. When the bartender finally came over ( not our usual bartender) my husband ordered a margarita. It was ok- but nothing special. When we looked at the slip, it was The GOAT Rita for the amazing price of $17. When we asked if this was the house margarita, the bartender assured us it was. Ok fine, it was maybe an $8.00 margarita at best. We ordered the queso app- and two burgers- on a Monday, when it should've been two for one burgers. We were charged for both, and when I mentioned this to the bartender, she said it was taken off after we rang up- hmmmm....but really? Had we not said anything, I'm not sure it would have happened. All in all, huge disappointment, the service was the worst we've ever had, food was ok.

I've sat @ the bar & have also sat @ a table inside the bar area. The service can be a hit or miss. I've found it to be a little slow the other night when my friend & I were @ the bar. The female bartender's were nice but could be a little more attentive. Last mth my SIL, Mom & I sat @ table in the bar area for lunch & the waitress never came back after serving our food to check on things. They have a room way in the back that my SIL & friend's were playing darts in that was kinda small with all the teams in there, it seemed like its a function room. I wish I had grabbed a piece of confetti cake to go as it looked amazing!! The sink in the ladies room seems to be uneven as the counter collects water from ladies washing their hands & collects on top so be careful not to lean into the counter or your shirt will get wet. The parking lot is kinda small so when its busy it may be hard to find a spot close by.

I had the pleasure of meeting a very cute dog who was celebrating his 18th birthday at the bar along with his two furry friends and their owners. Loved that the people at the bar were friendly and conversational even though I was a newcomer. We ordered some $5 Happy Hour cocktails, which were really great as they are made with brand name alcohol such as Stoli, Deep Eddy and Tangueray rather than no name alcohols from the well. Food happy hour specials were great too - The Waygu Beef Hotdog was served on a buttered and grilled roll and hot the spot. The fried pickles were good as well, although next time I'll ask for them extra crispy. Great place with friendly customers and employees, excellent service, and good food. Looking forward to going back!

We brought our own clubs and it was free, but to rent was extra (I feel like it should come with the simulator rental). The vibe was darker, good music pretty upbeat, giving country club. Would probably come back! Not sure if they do a happy hour menu but that might be a good grab for the simulators/apps/drinks. Thats what i will be doing next time.
