Great atmosphere, sitting outside was nice. Service was fast, not a pest and very friendly. Me and my wife got very good burgers, they give plenty of fries to go with it. Would definitely go again when in the area read more

Great Beer menu, loved the selection! Bartender Michaela was awesome! Great service! Had the Hot Chicken Sliders! Not bad! Good flavor Would have liked a different piece of chicken in the slider bun! It was like a small chicken tender that really didn't fit on the bun! But hey it's a slider! Had a side of fries, huge portion and real good fries read more

Just got back into town and stopped in for something different and a cold drink around 3:20 in the afternoon. The parking lot was only about a quarter full, so it definitely wasn't busy. We were told to take any table since they were all clean. As the server handed us menus, she noticed the table actually wasn't clean, apologized, and wiped it down. No problem--things happen. Unfortunately, from that point on we were completely ignored. For more than 15 minutes no one came to our table, even though servers walked nearby several times. Meanwhile, people who came in after us were getting drinks and placing orders. Rather than make a scene, we simply left. If the place had been busy or short-staffed we would understand, but that didn't appear to be the case. Being ignored like that is unacceptable. Hopefully this was just a fluke and not the new norm. read more

How do you justify charging 16.99 for a tiny half filled cup of spinach and artichoke dip ??? Won't go back there, when I called to complain, the hostess agreed but said, that's the portion sorry. read more

Was here on a business trip for Oncology. The service was amazing, the waitress greeted with a smile. Seated right away and order taken on the spot. The facility have that New Hampshire's vibe with all those wood walls to wood stalls. Only con was the black Atlantic salom. It was a lil overly salted, rice was kind of mushy oshy, and broccoli was broccoli. My opinion, not worth $26, maybe should've gotten a bacon cheesebooger. read more

Great local atmosphere. Friendly service. The portions are very generous and prices reasonable. I had the small Italian meat pizza and it felt like a large, was delicious, and well worth the visit. The whole fam was happy with the trip, fries were also excellent. read more

Food was on point and service at the bar was extremely timely. It was busy and you could see that it has a great reputation.

I met a couple of former co-workers and now friends who live in the area for dinner on a Tuesday night. We happened to be there for trivia night which we did not get involved in. We began with the Bavarian pretzel and an order of the Brussel sprouts. I am a big fan on both and neither disappointed. What is better than a huge salty pretzel and an ice cold beer? The Brussel sprouts were tasty and the portion was generous. My co-workers decided just to enjoy a couple of cold beers and the appetizers. I ordered a Bullwinkle burger without the Bullwinkle sauce. I've had better burgers and it did not come out the way I ordered it, medium well. The French fries were cooked fresh and not greasy. I added some salt and pepper to my liking. During the good weather months, there is plenty of outdoor seating. It is an expansive menu with lots of options to satisfy your hunger and thirst. The prices for the beer and food were reasonable. The service was very good and friendly. Parking is available in their private lot but it will get filled to capacity easily. read more

Service was excellent. We were here November 8th at 2ish and bartender was excellent. Food came out hot. I had smash hamburger taco and my husband has chicken parmigiana sliders and was very satisfied. Drinks were perfect. Will definitely be back lots of TV's for sports. Felt really comfortable in this restaurant. read more

Dined outside. Never felt abandoned and the servers were spot on. All meals came out quickly and without any issues. Best part was the taste. Everything was delicious. Look forward to returning. read more

Still here and can't wait to write a review. Our waitress Mallory was the best! when she did not know an answer to my question about gluten free she asked! Gluten Free beer and gluten free pizza, win win! Delicious!! Highly recommend! read more

This is a great place to unwind after a long day. Love their beer and the food is varied American a good. Hope to visit again soon.

We came for local beers. The selection here is fantastic. Every beer I had over the course of two nights was delicious. Great fries, but the tots with parm and a jalapeño queso dip outstanding. read more

5 stars to our bartender - great service 2 stars for food is me being generous ‍ I have been going to this location for years - but for past year or so the food has gone seriously downhill and prices have gone seriously up In the past I have always gotten the French dip and sooo loved it - pink flavorful great portion Yesterday I was there and honestly? Sad Looked like MB Roast beef - brown -barely any meat at all Wasn't warm and au jus was tasteless Super disappointed at this $20 + sandwich read more

The service was remarkably exceptional. The bartenders remembered my colleagues names after we made couple appearances during a work trip. The beer list is surprisingly extensive. I didn't eat food, but the craft selection went beyond most bars. read more

The food is delicious! Service was great! Try the onion rings! I had a French Dip sandwich. Good quality meat.

My wife and I stopped in last night as we were staying across the street at the Hampton Inn. The place was hopping busy! We chose to sit at the bar, so we can kabitz occasionally with the staff. My wife found a really nice boysenberry sour that she loved and I ordered their 603 double IPA. We tried a different pizza this time than our normal, the blue buffalo chicken pizza. Our pizza came out relatively quickly, and was absolutely delicious! We really appreciated our server and her friendly & professional service as well as her information about the Exeter area. There's a lot of worst places you could go to, we've been to them, this is pretty good! read more

I ordered a French dip sandwich thinking I was going to get what every other restaurant can do very easily. What came out was an undercooked, under seasoned, and was missing everything that comes in a French dip other than the meat and bread. All this for $20. Overpriced and underwhelming yet again read more

Popped in as a group of 6 and found bar seats open. Tabitha was on her A-game and got us drinks and took our food orders. The tabouli and hummus appetizer was awesome! Great pita and fresh olives, pepperoncinis, and tomatoes. The hummus was great. For my meal me and my gf both got crispy chicken salads and they are a good deal with the big portions. All sauces and dressings are made in house too, the Ranch was A+. My uncle enjoyed his reuben. My aunt enjoyed her nachos. My gram and other aunt enjoyed pepperoni pizza and a house salad. Overall we had great service and good food and drinks. Tabitha is a damn good bartender. Ty. read more

Had the Burganzola burger (mushrooms, Gorgonzola, caramelized onions, $15) that was tasty, better than my photo looks and my brother-in-law, the Prime Rib Dip ($16.50) that he enjoyed. Service was friendly and prompt. She delivered on my request the kitchen use a light hand on the Gorgonzola ('cause it's strong, yo) and checked in with us often. Popular bar area with big screen TVs to watch the game. I ordered takeaway from Thirsty Moose a few weeks earlier and my son's order was quickly pulled together and still warm when we arrived home. read more

Nice Tap room . Very fast and friendly service. Hubby had a pizza which he really liked . I had the Southern Fried Chicken Sandwich with sweet potato fries. My sandwich was ok but the chicken had absolutely no flavor to it. I might as well have been eating fish . Fries were good. Refills were prompt. I'd come here again but not getting this sandwich again unless it gets a new recipe or hot honey or something. read more

Good food, friendly staff, nice outside seating that is on a bit of a busy street, but somehow wasn't loud

Just had lunch at Thirsty Moose Taphouse in Exeter. This was the first time I had eaten inside. This particular TM is a little smaller in size than the others. Their outside area is much larger than the others, but today was a cool, rainy day in December. There were 6 people in our group, 3 adults & 3 kids. We were seated at a high top table and had plenty of room. Our server brought us water promptly & took our orders shortly thereafter. There is a full bar with an extensive draft beer selection focusing on regional brews. I enjoyed a helles lager from the Von Trapp brewery. I ordered the Chicken Quesadilla which was very good with a generous amount of meat. It came with sour cream & salsa on the side. Two of the kids shared a pretzel which came with 2 dipping sauces and a kids pizza that was so large-an adult would have trouble eating the whole thing (half was taken home). The others had Cheeseburger sliders, Chicken and Waffle Sliders and a salad-all were satisfied with their meals. Our service was very good. The restaurant is lively with many televisions showing sporting events. There is ample parking. Recommended without hesitation. read more

Excited to hear that they were bringing back trivia night Tuesdays. We love the chicken tenders and sliders. Great bar environment with friendly bartenders. read more

For pub fair -- even "elevated" pub fair -- Thirsty Moose is really, really expensive. We had a table of four, one appetizer, no alcoholic beverages and our check was $115 before tip. The poutine fries were tasty, but also nothing special. Fries from a bag and brown gravy from a can. The fish in the fish and chips was almost certainly fish sticks from a box. They were big, plump, tasty fish sticks, but fish sticks nevertheless. The chicken wings were probably the most egregious bad value on the menu. Even if you buy a dozen, the wings work out to $3 per wing. The sauce on the Caribbean Jerk wings tasted like 2 tbsp of jerk spice in a bottle of corn syrup. So sweet that my son couldn't eat more than 2. We left $12 worth of wings on the plate. The waitstaff was friendly, but also a little distracted. They spend a lot of time hanging around the bar, chatting up their regulars. I don't think I'll be back anytime soon. For the same money, the food is much better at Tailgate Tavern or the Railpenny in Epping. read more

Visit #2. Expensive! Steak tips over cooked. Ordered medium rare. They were "well". Wife had chicken. Batter too heavy! Over $100 with drinks, for two of us. Willing to try visit #3, but that would be it, if food lacks again. Good service! Good atmosphere! read more

Service was good at this restaurant but food wasn't how it seemed. My sodium levels must have jumped up for 1,000mgs after eating the French fries. Had a chicken wrap, wrap was okay. read more

Could have been a higher score but the level of service on my third consecutive visit Kaylee was one of the most obnoxious and condensing server I have ever experienced. A person like that should not be in the service industry. First two nights we had a great experience with Summer and another young lady who helped us. Spent well over a thousand dollars over the three nights. Would love to say I would return but the experience was so terrible with Kaylee that I would rather chew glass and have a margarita with salt afterwards. read more

The Thirsty Moose Taphouse is well.... Just ok. I went in with high hopes and left underwhelmed. The food was mediocre at best. The service was lacking and everyone seemed overworked. They've tried to jazz up in interior and unfortunately it's just been left with an ambiance that is fully lacking to find itself. One redeeming quality, the bar and cocktails are decent. read more
