Based on some great Yelp reviews, we took a little detour and stopped here for lunch. We were greeted 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. read more

10/10 hidden gem. Seating to eat, have soups and chowder, all sorts to order. We mostly go for the local meats and things, can find fresh and frozen in the back freezers. Love how some local places have shelf's to sell their honey and teas and things as well. Everyone is always super helpful and content - or laughing. I love when people enjoy their jobs. You can park and walk the bridge and it's got a great view! Maybe don't bring your lowered car though, lots of dirt parking closest! read more

We have loved Robbie's Country Store eversince we moved to NH almost 14 years ago. Its "past-generations" ambience feels warm and welcoming. We have seen several proprietors pass through, but truly have really enjoyed the cordiality and conversations with the new Robbie family. Their meal options are great, with my favorite being the combination of flavors in the Piedmont Breakfast Sandwich. They have their own farm made cheeses, and farm fresh frozen meats for sale. Enjoy the warm ambiance and take in the walls covered in memorabilia. read more

Is a tuck away gem in New Hampshire very old school fantastic breakfasts, and a lot of things to look at and to buy it's kind of like a general store and an old-fashioned diner. They use everything from their farm in Vermont eggs to meat the pork to chicken fantastic nothing better than this read more

I really enjoyed the ambience of the store and the breakfast sandwich was amazing. It highly recommend people give this place a try.

Can't beat the feel of this restaurant. The breakfast food is so phenomenal and fresh. And it being a family owned operation makes it even better. read more

Excellent food, friendly service! The French fries cooked in tallow alone are worth the detour! read more

We ordered takeout breakfast from The Robie Store, and it was fantastic all around. The service was friendly and great, the food was prompt, and it was tasty! We had the Piermont sandwich, which was delicious; it's probably the best sausage I've ever had. Blueberry pancakes were perfectly sweet and really didn't even need syrup, and bacon was great (a little crispy for my liking but not burnt and great flavor) All of their meats and eggs come from their farm which is awesome. Prices were very reasonable. Highly recommend checking this place out and supporting a true local business. read more

Great country style setting and food. My wife and I loved the ambience. We had a burger and a turkey BLT and both were delicious. We also picked up a few speciality sauces and mustards in jars that I can't wait to try. read more

Staff is super friendly, great selection of coffee, all around nice stop in my morning routine

What a beautiful renewal to Hooksett's History! Breakfast or the Robbie Burger.... You cannot go wrong! Being served by little Oren Robbie or chatting with Tim and Jessica is a new highlight to our weekends! And the smiles from Baby Josephine is icing on the cake!!! Homegrown goods, with community culture beyond compare with all natural meats, milk and cheeses. We shop here weekly. LOVE IT!!!! read more

Had a great lunch at Robie's today. Our table of 6 each ordered something different, and reviews were good all around. Excellent burger, sandwiches, and chips. I bought some cheese and jam to take home after trying the cheese from their farm. Excellent cheese! They also sell milk, eggs, and meats. The owner visited with us, and it was so nice to hear about the source of their products. Highly recommend! read more

Best burger in New Hampshire!! Cooked the way you like it. Excellent oldest startup in New Hampshire (new management for store over 150 years old.) This store is Like Calef's in Barrington,NH or Harrington in Shelburn Vermont.but not yet as expansive Nice specialty foods cheeses maple syrup and more. Best burger I have had in years cook medium rare as asked for. I want it that way and don't need the parentage telling me or the cook not to do it this is New Hampshire I am free to have a medium rare burger! Sign a consent if needed. If I want rare serve it to me He'll one restaurant in Atlanta actually will serve it raw. read more

Owners are so great!! We had great conversations with them and our food was fast fresh and hot. Definitely worth the visit

We were looking for a place for breakfast food during our drive from Maine to Vermont. This place popped up, so we thought we would try it. What a happy accident! Great homemade food, very friendly service, fun atmosphere. Gourmet coffees and homemade jam! We will certainly be back. read more

We held my daughter's bridal shower at Roots, and it was absolutely wonderful! Right from the planning stage to the end of the party, Amber, Joshua, and Jane made for a memorable afternoon! We had approximately 30 guests. The event began at 4 PM, so we chose appetizers and lighter fare to serve. This included a cheese platter, antipasto platter, Thai chicken skewers, pulled pork sliders, and a lemon rice soup. The carrot cake cupcakes, made in house, were the perfect dessert! Everything was superb! The main dining room accommodated everyone nicely, and there was even plenty of room to hold a line dancing class! For a unique and comfortable venue, I would highly recommend Roots for any function! read more

Best kept secret in Hooksett and Manchester area. Food is made from scratch. Nice country store feel with friendly service. The bacon is crazy good, pancakes are huge and prices are reasonable. Lunch is suppose to be awesome but haven't tried it yet. Down by the river so I think people forget it's there but I've been three times and had great meals and never waited to get in. read more

For a great country style breakfast, this is the place. Great staff, great food... a real hidden gem!

I have to say this first... what a cute homey place! Love all the pictures on the wall! When you walk in ... it feels like you walking into a loving family member home.

Delicious wraps and sandwiches made fresh when you order. Eat in or take out. I will return to try breakfast soon. A perfect stop if you are heading to or from Bear Brook State Park in Allenstown. Make sure you pick up some Jake's Ice Cream here as well! read more

The food is farm to table. Great pride in everything, all homemade ! Gluten free. soups, sandwiches, great egg dishes, salads, fresh made muffins, scones, cookies, large servings ! Unique ambiance, a NH Gem ! read more

Nice little place for lunch. They have a nice variety of sandwiches. Friendly staff. I would have given it 4 stars but for a cup of self serve coffee they charge $2.50. This is a 6 or 8 oz mug. Way over priced. All the photos on the wall are really a bit too much. They take away from a country feel. read more

My breakfast was so cold I could not eat it, server told my there was no heat lamp in the kitchen? ?? My husbands ham and cheese omelet had no ham, they brought him a side of ham, it arrived after I sent the food back. The order at the counter and hope for a seat service is confusing and awkward. The staff does not understand the ordering technology and the dirty tables are inexcusable. The place is adorable, but If they don't pull it together its going to ea disaster. On a positive note, the people sitting next to us hated their experience almost as much and we chatted with them while we waited for our missing items. read more

This place has reopened as of March 2, 2016. Newly designed menu, including gluten-free items, and gift shop wares. A new fudge counter, too! Get a mix of down home country ambiance with updated menu offerings and new technology. This will be a favorite meeting place for town locals. Lots of interesting historical artifacts and political memorabilia to peruse during your meal. If you're visiting the area, be sure to add this stop to your itinerary!! read more

Wow! New ownership has got this place figured out! Great menu and prices, love the serve yourself concept with water. Food is in line with what people are looking fir today, fresh, local, healthy. Check this place out you won't be disappointed. Worth the small detour off interstate 93 if you are passing by. Check my other reviews, I rarely give 4 stars. Usually only post when I feel like I have wasted my money and want to warn others. Thanks for protecting such a historic place! read more

There are so many great choices and not a mundane choice in the place! Had the most AMAZING Blackberry French Toast while my Spouse relished the veggie omelet which was full of flavor, accompanied by home fries and toast - couldn't get any better than this! Without exception, one of the BEST breakfasts served in the area! read more

Stopped here on our way from Mass to Vermont, we wanted good breakfast from a local deli, not a franchise. What a great decision! The people here are friendly, the store is cute, and the breakfast sandwiches we got were phenomenal. Jacks Ass Kicking salsa added some extra flavor too that hit the spot. read more

We walked here for a nice walk with my friends but we came to find that it was closed for repairs. Two weeks ago we came and were disappointed to see they were closed for the day. Before we left we had looked at the website and there was indication of a closing.(2 stars) read more

Highly recommend you check this place out! Food was outstanding. Best blueberry pancakes I've had. Historic location with friendly service.

Don't know why people like this place. Low quality food , bad service and you have to make your own coffee! I don't care that Clinton or Bush ate there they obviously have bad taste and just want to be seen in a local place. read more

We were huge fans of the original Robies and were so pleased when they re-opened! The interior has had an update with fresh paint and newly stained floors all while maintaining the charm Robies has always had. The new owners have re-organized the store and more seating areas are now available with new, comfy oak arm chairs. There is plenty of outdoor seating on nice days with the addition of picnic tables. The best seat in the house is in the back of the cafe overlooking the river! We really liked the previous owners of Robies and are pleased that the new owners and employees are all very friendly and super accommodating! The menu still has our favorites with some alterations. The food is just as delicious and still made to order with fresh ingredients. The fluffy pancakes have decreased in size but have maintained their same addictive flavor and texture! I love that I can order a sandwich any time of day here! Robies is our favorite go-to breakfast/sandwich for breakfast place around! read more

What a great find. After a nice hike up at Bear Brook, we were starving for lunch and noticed Robie's on the way back to the highway. The atmosphere is fun -- they managed to keep the old general store vibe, with unique items for sale in the front and microbrews in the back. The walls feature highlights from all the political visits over the years and the high chair they gave us was easily as old as I am, which was quite fun. The food was phenomenal -- we had a pulled pork sandwich and the turkey bacon avocado wrap with sides of fries, kale salad, and bean salad. It was all so fresh and tasty. We will be making a trip here just for lunch again sometime. read more

Outstanding from start to finish! I'm hesitant to rave about this little gem; once the word gets out tables will be at a premium. Pulled pork hash, eggs Bennie with outrageously fresh English muffin and to die for blueberry pancakes. A must for breakfast in the area. read more

Casual environment. Enjoyed the veggie omelet. Thick bacon. Larger portion. A little pricey for breakfast but worth it

Onion rings and other lunch favorites are tasty and timeless in this throwback setting. Take a look at the antique Hooksett memorabilia and listen to the locals tell fish stories. Service was good, and prices very low. read more

Great breakfast and lunch spot. Awesome atmosphere and location. Super friendly staff that treat everyone like regulars. Diverse and healthy menu and all the coffee you can drink. read more

I have been eating here for years. I have seen new management come and go a number of times. The newest store managers seem to have it a bit more together than previous ones. I like that they have kept the patron responsibility of doing some of the seating, getting coffee and cleaning. The breakfast has always been the reason to come here. The lunch and other items have always been, and still are, mediocre at best. The reason for only three stars is that they no longer serve breakfast into lunch. Seriously! In my humble opinion, breakfast is the only reason to come here. My fear is that the new management will try to hard to become something Robie's (not Roots) will never be. Keep it down to earth, keep it real, and realize you are a diner. Final recommendation, if breakfast is what you are looking for, try this place (don't miss out on the pancakes). Just make sure you show up before they stop serving it. read more
