Beer is excellent, Food is good. The service and the system on which to obtaining the food/beer needs great improvement. One could order more beer if there was a separate line for just beer while waiting for the food which by the way you better not be starving or in a hurry because it takes a long long time before you your food arrives. If there was another micro near round to have great beer this place would finally improve the service. We can only hope.m read more

Great place for live music. My husband enjoyed his dinner and beer! (I have celiac disease and didn't eat.)

Went last week, ate outside. During our visit, three parties arrived with dogs. It seemed cute at first, until the smell of dog excrement wafted everywhere. I guess someone had an accident, and though I am a dog owner and lover this was over the top. The single menu really slowed down our ordering process, which we had to do by writing our own order down and taking it inside to pay. I don't like this model of food service. I prefer traditional wait service. I had salad with pork belly, which was well done. I won't go back though. read more

I love their beer and their snacks. I love the fact that they have great outdoor seating and the indoors is cozy. I do not like the set-up where you have to go and get in line every time you want to order, especially if you are outside, and if you leave your tab open you have to get back in line to cash out. read more

Throwback Brewery - Starving for food (and a beer won't hurt)! - Breweries Near Me - North Hampton, New Hampshire

Stopped here for dinner and some beers for our group of five. All the way across the beers were excellent and the maple porter, pale ale and Pilsner were all agreed to be very good with great flavor and well crafted. Our food selections varied from the schnitzel to veggie bowls and both the Throwback burger and falafel burger all of which were very tasty. Granted we were hungry, but fresh ingredients, well paired flavors and culinary skills all came through for each of our selections. We did not try any desserts but instead lingered and played some of the available board games they have out. The setting is relaxing and if you appreciate agriculture and farming you will be comfortably at home. Service is low key and efficient with the drop of selection and seat yourself set up. We will be back and to the owners and staff ...nice job!! read more

Great food, great staff and great ambiance! Keep up the great work! Too many local restaurants act like they are doing the customer a favor and can't be bothered. read more

I know my craft beer and this place is the Best. Pleasant and country atmosphere. I went to see Jake Davis Live. Such a great night. read more

Throwback Brewery - Breweries Near Me - North Hampton, New Hampshire

We visited Throwback Brewery on our way to Portland, Maine for dinner. We were not disappointed. They have great selection of beers especially IPA's. Stout - not so much but then I am particular to Guinness. Food was good too. I really enjoyed the Chorizo Bowl with a roasted cauliflower side. My wife wasn't very impressed with their Korean BBQ Bowl but really liked the cheesy grits. The brewery is located on an old farm. We sat outside and it was a great place to be with the beautiful sunset. With the sun setting though hundreds of bugs descended on us and we had to retreat inside read more

Food is all amazing! The staff is great- very attentive, and helpful. All of the beers are phenomenal, and I didn't think I loved every style until now!! read more

Great food, great beer, very nice staff. We sat outside. The tent was pretty but the condition of the property was poor and run down.

We've been here once and thought it was a great place. Good beer, good service and great atmosphere. My rating is based on poor customer outreach and marketing. We have traveled out here TWICE since our first visit, to have their doors closed! We checked their website on the road, to see that they were open only to make the drive and find a chalkboard indicating that they closed at 3:00 or something outside of their normal business hours. We won't make this mistake again. Sorry Throwback, you are off of our list. The sad part about it, is that it is a great cruise location if you are visiting the coast. As we were turning around on their property, because they were closed, we witnessed out-of-staters doing the same. (Maine, Connecticut, MA)How disappointing for them! We are from NH about 40 miles away but to travel and make a stop based on bad Google information is just poor business read more

This place, by far, is one of the best breweries/brewpubs I have ever visited! Let's start with the beer...absolutely AMAZING! Then, there is the food...absolutely AMAZING! All in a beautiful, inviting atmosphere. The service is impeccable, which is in line with everything about this place. I simply can't say enough good things about Throwback. You simply must stop here and enjoy one of the finest experiences you can have. read more

This brewery is housed in a farm and was amazing. There is a large outside with colorful fabric shades and it's off course dog friendly. There was a bit of a wait for a seat and no line so a bit cutthroat, but once seated we could barely be persuaded lto eave. Every brewery should feature chickens and goats right near the tables . The boys loved watching both. The dog just looked hungry. Thankfully the food was just as good as the beer here and we thoroughly enjoyed wings and burgers. The beer has a ton of variety and some interesting beer styles not commonly found elsewhere like a Norwegian grisette. We really didn't want to leave. read more

Always awesome!! This time I brought the kids and they loved it. They have the biggest ice cream sandwich I ever seen. So delicious! One way to get the kids to stop talking for a bit ha read more

Throwback Brewery - Breweries Near Me - North Hampton, New Hampshire

We've been here a few times since they've opened. I must say, they are doing a phenomenal job! Keep up the great work, glad to see how successful you've become. Very impressed with the bartenders and wait staff. #greatplacetogo read more

Great country atmosphere with surprisingly high quality food for a brewery. The staff were fantastic and the crowd was friendly. The beer was pretty tasty too. I would definitely recommend this place if you're in the area. read more

Such a lovely sun set on a Friday evening. The kids ran around kicking a ball while the adults sat back with a delicious meal and cold brews outside. Customer service was spot on. Everything arrived to our table in less time than expected knowing it was busy. We loved the bobble heads for table markers. The sweet potato wedges were YUM. Burger was devoured. This was our second visit after finding it on a whim the first time. Looks by forward to another kid friendly visit so us adults can sit back and enjoy ourselves! Thanks for a beautiful setting, food and brews! read more

First time visit after passing by the place since it opened. We live in Hampton, less than 10 minutes away. I cannot understand what all the buzz is about. Really, a 5 Star rating because of some wooden tables and bobble head toys? You drive up to a huge barn and immediately enter a very small, extremely noisy area. No wait staff and a menu that strives to be upscale but ultimately makes it difficult to order anything either simple or catering to a restrictive diet. Every time you want to order something, you get up and stand at the bar. There's enough staff hanging around and few enough tables to have full service not sure why they don't. What am I tipping for? The beers are at a minimum, what you'd expect at a brew pub, nothing special to rate high marks. And the food is ok, again nothing to rate high marks. We left after a simple meal of 2 burgers and a kale salad and a few beers with a $70+ bill; and one of the burgers was sent back for being undercooked and returned the same way. We eventually asked to have it removed from the bill, which they did. Ok, I recommend you try it for yourselves. If it's Summer and you want to kick back outdoors and enjoy beer, go there. But bring a Burger King meal along with fries (that won't cost you $3 extra) and save money and the disappointment of mediocre food and service. Definitely a 2-3 Star place at best. read more

Went there tonight with my family and ate outside with a fire pit. Food and service were amazing. You can tell they take great pride in their quality and service. Will definitely be back again soon read more

Great beer and awesome ambiance. Loved the beer and sitting outside on the patio! We will for sure be returning!

Best brewery I have visited to date. Great environment, excellent food, and the beer selections were diverse and great! Wait staff was super friendly and attentive. What else could you possibly ask for. read more

Called and inquired about a table, per the website "We often get cancelations day of, so if you don't see anything open the day you want to come, try giving us a call that day at 603 -379-2317" and got a very rude employee that picked up. Other members of our party really wanted to check out the Venue so we tried for a standing only table. Hostess was rude. Waitress took ten plus minutes to even greet us. read more

I've been here many times and the food is always amazing. The beer is great (lots of porters and stouts, which a lot of breweries neglect). Service is always great. Today was even better, we showed up with 20+ MINIs and hungry drivers and passengers. And throwback took great care of us. Desserts are phenomenal, too! I can't say enough good things about this place to do it justice. If it's a nice day, definitely take a seat outside and enjoy the patio. read more

Came here once when I was passing through New Hampshire. Nice atmosphere with both indoor and outdoor seating, lots of food offerings. You get to choose your flight and I was happy with the offerings at the time, my favorite being the Rhubarb Wit. Loved their variety of food. I would go back just beware it gets super packed so get there as early as you can. read more

There's something special about Throwback. They have this wonderful back yard brewery feel! All the people there are great and they love what they do. My wife and I have been several times. Each time we get some tasters and full our growler. Each time they have a different selection and we're never disappointed! Some of the names they have dubbed their brews are awesome as well! I'm a big fan of their Donkey Hote double ipa. I cannot wait to see their new location as I am sure it will assist them with making even more amazing local beers!! read more

Took a beer bus tour this past Saturday and this was our first stop. The owners gave us a tour of their brewing facilities and told us their story as well as letting us try several of their brews which, by the way, were excellent! While buying my growler, one of the customers at the bar was filling me in on how great the food was. Loved the atmosphere and their staff were very friendly and knowledgable! Can't wait to go back for a proper meal! read more

Simply said, this place is a hidden gem. If your not looking carefully as you go up route 1 or using your gps, you'll fly right by. Once you find it you will not be disappointed. Their food offerings and beer are superb. We had the house made chips w/3 onion dip and the Korean wings and a couple flights of their very good beer. The place has a very comfortable, inviting feel. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. Judging by the amount of people and dogs meandering around the property, eating and drinking on the patio and in the dining room the people at throwback have hit upon and are doing something very good in North Hampton! We'll definitely be back! read more

Nasty. Horrible ordering process, stood in line for ten minutes to order while the people in front of me tried to figure out what they want. Tons of screaming kids running around unsupervised. Who would ever think to put french fries on a bowl of soupy mussels. The whole place felt unclean. Again, nasty. Beer was ok if you like watermelon in your beer... not me. Got me once, but never again. read more

Had such a great time here. I've been twice now, once pre covid once post covid. Both times they have hit it out of the park. Today, due to covid, we were out side on a beautiful summer evening. The field surrounding us was picturesque as the sunset behind the trees off in the distance. They were on top of the sanitary aspect, wiping down tables and chairs and asking patrons to sanitize before entering. They had a great summer sour selection. One even tasted like a red Gatorade. As our waitress said, "I feel like I should be playing soccer when I drink that" We brought our pup, StanLee, and staff were quick to ask if he needed water. The food was great as well. My life changed when I tried the garlic aioli. All and all, they gave us a great way to spend a summer night while sipping some beers and tasting great foods. Can't wait to head back! read more

I love a good craft beer and for that I would give 5 stars. However the chairs are super uncomfortable, I wish they had table service rather than the write down what you want and order at the counter. Also the noise level is out of control, they need a few sound panels on the ceiling and some corner catchers read more

I wanted to love this place so much, but after my visit, I left feeling disappointed. The atmosphere, great! Super cute, rustic, great outdoor seating. Didn't love the fact that every time someone in our group wanted to order something we had to stand in line at the bar. Very inconvenient for a handicapped person such as my parent. The beer....some yes, some no, wasn't amazed by any really. My father loved the Donkey Hote double IPA. and I really enjoyed the guest tap hard cider. Ok, on to the real reason I left disappointed....the food! Personally, I found it hard to accommodate some of our picky eaters, everything is "fancied" up and it was hard to find a plain burger option. We were a large group, and there were some yummy things, homemade chips and beer onion dip, yes! Kale and couscous salad, yes! 2 of our meals were actually worth speaking to management about. The girl at the register was super sweet about it, but the owner ( I'm guessing) was very rude. Never apologized or anything. We were not asking for different food or even for it to be taken off the bill (which they did not) all we wanted to do was quietly let them know so they could give the chef a heads up. So overall, overpriced, not amazing food or beer in a gorgeous setting...that's what Throwback was for us. read more

Loved the atmosphere! Go up and order when you're ready. They have a great list of different beers to choose from. Loved the food, sweet potato fries are a must!!! They are only open certain days so make sure you check that before you go. And if it is a nice day enjoy their outside seating. read more

Overall a good experience. This was our first time at throwback brewery. Great atmosphere -- you order and pay at the bar. All the food is made with local ingredients from local sources and farms. The menu was limited, but had some interesting items. We stayed for drinks--tried 4 beers with the sampler option. Service at bar was only okay. We might try it again in the summer. read more

First visit, atmosphere, service, and food. I had fish tacos and they were fantastic. Cool spot!

Meh. I wanted to love it. We've waited a long time, driving by and always noting we had to try it. Tonight was the night. First, it's very loud. The seating, very pub-like, was not what we expected. Not a bad thing, but not much of a dinner thing. We sat at the bar. We were greeted quickly and given menus. Then the wait began. Some (obvious) regulars came to the walk-up spot next to where we were seated (waiting for our drink order to be taken). They had quite a loud, animated, amiable conversation while they (and we) waited. The bartender then took *their* order, while we continued to wait. Another couple of servers looked at us, but said nothing. Finally, the bartender said, "Do you know what you want for drinks?" "Yeah. And food," my wife replied. I ordered poutine and we both ordered burgers. My wife's side was the squash, mine was the kale & coos coos salad. For beer, I ordered a Hobbs Farmhouse Saison. It was okay, a little below what I had expected (I'm pretty familiar with their beers). The poutine came out quickly and was good. When looking at the menu, I had commented to my wife that fries were not an option with the burger, and she said, "They probably don't have a fryolater." I thought she was probably right. A short way into the poutine, we both realized they DO have a fryolater, and thought it odd that they don't offer fries as a side with the burger (and the fries are terrific). The burgers came out, but they had switched which burger went with which side. No biggy, we just switched them ourselves. Burgers came out quickly (perhaps a shade too quickly since I was still working on the app). They were cooked to order, but there was some flavor -- not sure if it was the cheese, the onions, or the bun -- that was just... off. Tasted like earth, or soap, I still can't decide which. I freely admit I'm not a raw-foods kind of guy, and they're definitely leaning that way, so it might be to your liking. I wished I'd ordered something else. It wasn't bad, just off. Not anything that I would send back but nothing I'd order a second time. So far so goodish. Now comes the trouble. The service was, well... very millennial -- which is to say, we were pretty much ignored once we got the obligatory check-in. I would have ordered a second beer had anyone cared enough to ask -- they didn't. By the time anyone did, we were ready for the check and I asked for my growler to be filled. Now, everyplace I've ever been will quickly spritz your growler before filling it (some places will actually replace it if the bottle is too warm). That did not happen. One guy took the order, another filled the growler, but just grabbed it and filled it. I *hope* it was relatively clean. It's been in the car waiting for the chance I was passing by and stopped in. Once filled, most places will clean the exterior with water and wipe it down. It was wiped, with a dank bar rag. When I picked it up to leave it nearly slipped out of my hand. I set it on my leg so as not to get the interior of the car sticky, and my pant-leg is actually wet as I type. And sticky. As we left, my wife commented, "It's not horrid, so I wouldn't blast them in your review... but... maybe this is what we have to get used to with the service industry from this generation." That pretty much sums the place up. We won't be back for dinner, not because of the food, but because of the sub-par service and VERY loud atmosphere. Given the concerns about sanitation, I'm not sure I'll be drinking the beer anymore, either. Quite a disappointment, really. I gave three stars, but 2.5 is closer to where my heart is. read more

As other reviews have mentioned, Throwback has some definite kinks to work out. The beer was good but limited in selection. My husband ordered the short rib special and I ordered the wings. Wings were good. The "short rib" (singular) was a 2"x2" square with a similar size piece of corn bread and thin slices of tomatoe. WAY too small a portion for $20. A customer at the bar also tried to return a keg while we were there. They had his name, but no record of payment - he kindly said he'd look for the transaction on his phone. They had no idea if he had paid for the tap either. Again, beer flavor was good, but portions are ridiculously small and lots of service kinks to work out. $54 for 2 beers, one "entree" and an appetizer. read more

Wow. Great beer, great food and excellent staff. Well worth finding the place. As a bonus, on a warm summer night they have outdoor seating that looked mighty inviting. read more

I'm local and i really, really want to like this place but i find the food and service wildly inconsistent. The burger is the most dependable thing there and even it seems to have good days and bad days. During my most recent visit i had the "Empanada" appetizer which in reality were 3 tiny pieces of pork in an equally small (think slightly larger than popcorn shrimp at fast food joint) sized piece of fried dough. Around $8 for these. These oddly enough were served on top of a small order of Mushroom Risotto entree i had ordered as well... very strange. Not to mention this took about 30 minutes to be delivered the table-in their defense it was busy BUT several tables of larger parties that arrived 5-10 minutes received their meals before ours. My wife had an unsuccessful incarnation of Pad Thai-common sense said to avoid this at a New England Brewery and the outcome would have supported this. AND while i'm piling on if you order an appetizer be it a nut assortment or their popcorn (avoid-stale and expensive for what it is) then you would expect these to be served prior to the meal-not with the meal which has happened 2 out of last 3 times there. On plus side it's a nice vibe and great use of a beautiful local landmark. I hope others will pipe up about the quality (particularly considering the cost) of the food and they will improve the kitchen as this place wouldn't fly in a large city or competitive market. . Again in their defense they are not even a year old yet so hopefully they can up their game. read more

Great hang out spot. They have really good beers as well. Also a great dog friendly place, If your around Hampton, I would suggest checking it out. read more

If you like burnt carrots mixed with dirty mulch then try the carrot cake stout. I rather drink vomit.
