The staff seemed frantic but they were working very promptly to make sure customers could be seated. I was told that our party of 2 would be about 15-20 mins. They took my phone # to add to the waitlist. The wait was more like 6 or 7 mins. We were seated in the bar area at the booths. The bar is somewhat loud but it was still average. It's nice that they can accommodate parties of 2 so easily. There were several large groups, primarily families so it's certainly kid-friendly. They serve up some of the BEST fries! I suggest the O'Crabby Patty. It is on the heavy side with caramelized onions but wow is it packed with flavor. I will be getting that again for sure!

There isn't a plant based or mushroom burger anymore. The prices have all gone up between 10-30%. The good? Live music on Thursday night with Dave Clark. He plays a wide range of music. Show him some love! Our server was pretty great. Friendly, answered all our questions, and gave good recommendations. Overall, a pleasant local Irish place with many different food options.

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.

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!

This place has changed hands a few times over the years, it'll never been as good as Magrilla's was…read morebut I digress. We stopped in here for a couple of drinks after dinner around the corner at Cinco's. Our server was very friendly and quick to check on us throughout our visit. I had two different cocktails from their specialty list, both were horrible. The first one was pretty much straight tequila with maybe a tiny squeeze of lime, quick way to get drunk but not an enjoyable way. The second one was so overbearingly sweet, I had all I could do to drink it. Now, the prices can't be beat on their drinks, compared to other bars in town, that's the one really good thing they've got going for them.

Great vibe inside and you could take awhile just to look around at the decorations etc. try to spot the stuffed owl. Draft beer! Yeah they have Kilkenny Irish cream ale - a rarer find and now another known purveyor ! Food was great, we shared a pear salad and the roasted turkey sandwich - enough food for a nice lunch. Service was also friendly and prompt.

Large chunks of tough chicken. The puff pastry placed on top was not fresh. It had clearly been baked off previously. They didn't even pretend it was freshly baked on top of the pie because it wasn't even warm. My husband enjoyed his steak & cheese with french fries, which is the only thing that made this a 3 star review. Very disappointed.

Yuck. This place has been here since god was a child but…read morethey never seem to be able to get it right. How do you undercook cook ravioli? The pasta came out to me paper thin and still rock hard. The server was completely out to lunch and by the time he came back to check on us, my entire party had either finished their meals or shoved the plates away in disgust. We went on a night that was "buy one, get one" so we weren't going to pay for one of the meals anyways, so when the dimwitted manager came over and proudly announced that she was taking care of my meal - YEAH, I KNOW! THAT WAS THE ADVERTISED SPECIAL - I just didn't get to eat it! I don't know what the inn rooms look like. I hope they're great, but skip the restaurant. YUCK!

We will definitely be coming back. And I will definitely tell people that they need to eat here. Next time I will stay at the inn overnight.

It was mostly local regulars, but all were very friendly and talked about local activities. The pub had all the regular beers, nice and cold. The food was actually pretty good bar food, had their pub shaved steak sandwich. It was different but good and the fries crispy. I sat at the bar and the service was very good and bartender friendly. Definitely worth the stop.

She was prompt, courteous, and friendly. The music was good, though a bit too loud (we were seated too close). We had not been to 405 on a Live music night though, so we made the best of it. We will ask to sit farther away if that happens again. Or we just won't go on music nights. The singer guitarist was good, but every song was in the same key (all songs sounded alike). Some like that. We don't. Musical taste is subjective. We're musicians and know that. It's tough to please everyone. Our food and drinks were all delicious! And that's really why we continue to go to 405. My steak tips and Greek salad was yummy! My daughter had the same and loved it too. My husband loved the fish and chips. Son-in-law loved his burger and said if even beat Patrick's! Ha!
