Don’t order the lobster BLT because the portion is very small making it not worth the price of $32! The Tipsy leprechaun was decent! The potatoes/cottage fries you get are to die for!!!! I love the outdoor seating watching all the bikes cruise by. I’ll definitely go back to try some other menu items!

Enjoyed Patrick’s very much. Prime rib and steak tips were fantastic. Sides and sauces were outstanding. The Irish pulled nachos were so good. Great place great service.

Very clean interior. Bathrooms clean. Our service was wonderful. Nachos delicious, Tipsy leprechaun delicious, lobster roll delicious, crab cakes I didn't like them. Needed more of a crust and had a seasoning I wasn't fond of. My son enjoyed them though. Only other thing was the beer wasn't cold enough. We had a nice experience and I would recommend checking out Patrick's.

Came in to eat with my family last night and towards the end, a storm came and the restaurant lost power. Stephanie was our waitress and she was great. Very patient and very helpful. Even though we finished eating with only the light from the windows, it was delicious and the service never faltered. Everything about Patrick's is amazing. We will definitely be returning.

We stopped by after a rain soaked flag football game, I had the BISTRO SALAD- Romaine tossed with Caesar dresing and topped with applewood smoked bacon, heirloom grape tomatoes, crumbled gorgonzola and pickled red onions. It was a perfect salad! Oh, the chowder is awesome too!!!! We'll definitely return.

The very best mozzarella sticks I have ever had. The whiskey BBQ fried chicken sandwich was fantastic. We had a 20-25 minute wait ( not bad ) to get seated prior to the Kane Brown concert. It was well worth the wait. I will definitely go back again. For 2 people with a mixed drink each, the bill after I gave a %25 tip was just under $100.0 Very reasonable.

I came here for the first time to take my mom out for her birthday, and what is there to complain about. The food is SO GOOD, it came out nice, quick and hot. My waitress, Sydney was the best always there to get me what I needed and very quick and polit. Will definitely come back and will tell other about this place.

Had dinner there tonight and the food was good, but our service was exceptional. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a waitress who not only hustled, but also was very friendly and made sure that we had an excellent dining experience. Thank you so much Sydney for a job well done. Will be back for sure.

It had incredible service! And they gave out balloon animals to the kids and had live music. I accidentally left my food at the table we were sitting at and our waitress ran after us all the way outside to the car in the freeIng cold rain! I was so appreciative. I would give it 6 stars if I could!

Good vibe, decent food! We stopped in last night and then ordered take out again tonight. The food came fast both times and is generally pretty good. The food quality was a bit inconsistent- had the salmon two days in a row and the quality was a bit different, still good but inconsistent cook. The Brussels sprouts weren't great, undercooked. I'd recommend the butternut squash as a side! The seafood chowder was delicious, and the tipsy leprechaun is highly recommended. For the out of staters - if you're ordering a drink, they do not accept verified out of state government approved apps with virtual IDs. You will need a physical copy.

We passed this place so many times since moving here, and I had high hopes, but I can't give it 4 stars. If I could split stars, I'd give it 3.5. The good: super cold beer, great selection, friendly and efficient service. Clean bathrooms. Clean restaurant. Nice atmosphere. Good location. The not so good: chicken wings were barely what I would call cooked, not raw but they needed more cooking and drying out. Seafood chowder was just so-so in a land of great chowders. Burger wasn't bad but it didn't knock my socks off. Fries were odd and not in a good way, like halfway between chips and fries, just bland, and they got cold quickly because they were so thin (imagine a chip cut thin on one side then increasingly thick across its surface so the opposite side has more "meat" but not enough to hold any heat). Mac & cheese with pork was not bad but not super compelling as I had hoped. I would go back for a beer when I'm in this area, and I hope to give some other menu options a try when I do, but this time was a little short of the mark for me.

Cozy straight forward restaurant. I had the grain/sweet potato bowl and a passion fruit margarita-which was good but would have been better with a tahin rim. The grain bowl was pretty small and served in a comically large bowl. Next time I think I'll stick with the pub food because the mozzarella sticks at a nearby table looked insanely delicious. Our waitress was good.

We love this bar in the Summer and on St Patrick's day. Service is good. Feels like an Irish pub. Stuffed mushrooms are my go-to along with sandwiches & burgers. Check out trivia nights on Wednesday too!

One of the best experiences I had at a restaurant from start to finish in a long time. We decided to stop by before attending a concert, and wanted to eat locally. Started off with an onion soup which was good. Cheese galore! I'm not even a french onion soup fan but this one was tasty. For my entree, I ordered the drunken chicken & chips. Once again, I took a gamble because I'm not the biggest bbq sauce fan. But I saw it was made with Irish Whiskey and it just sounded good. Holy moly...when I tell you this was one of the best bbq sauces I've ever had, I mean that wholeheartedly. It's sweet, almost like a teriyaki sauce. The chicken tenders were juicy and had the perfect crisp and crunch. Fries were good and coleslaw was good. But those tenders, jeez I wish I lived closer just to experience those one more time. We ended with the house made Irish sticky toffee pudding and omg so good. Soft, fluffy, just delicious really. Never had anything like it before and I loved it. Also shoutout to our waiter who was so attentive. I think he came to check on us almost 5 times which never happens...he was so kind and made sure we had what we needed. I will be back if I am ever up this way again. TLDR: Arguably some of the best BBQ chicken tenders I've ever had

Ate here for the first time yesterday before attending a concert at the nearby BankNH Pavilion. We were impressed by the friendly, attentive staff from the moment we walked in the door. The dining area appeared spotless and felt very inviting and our server was fantastic! We shared an assortment of appetizers instead of individual entrees. We went with the Irish pork nachos, bavarian pretzels and dippin' chicken with barbecue sauce. While the Irish pork nachos were my favorite of the three dishes, everything was delicious! The cheese sauce that came with the pretzels was some of the best I've ever had and I also really enjoyed the barbecue sauce we got with the dippin' chicken. The chicken was tender and crispy, and the fresh fried potato chips with the Irish pork nachos were my favorite aspect of all three dishes. Service was super fast and got us through our meal with plenty of time to spare before our show. We will definitely be back next time we're in the area!

Great staff. Vanessa has been my bartender 80% of the times I e gone there and she is a sweet and professional. Prime rib, French dip and a few other dishes I've had have been great. Mashed potatoes, baked cauliflower and butternut squash are great sides and their style fries are very good like 1/2 streak fries cut at an angle you must try.

SO much fun! I stole my son away for a spontaneous weekend tubing and skiing at Gunstock. I knew that it would be brilliant but Patrick's made a great start to the weekend even better. The restaurant is cozy in feel, full of happy energy, welcoming staff (and excellent service). I had the Chicken Caesar Wrap with the Pub Fries cooked extra crispy. Usually I'm not a fan but these fries are cut thinly while still being broad. My son had the Fish n' Chips. He tore through the fish and there wasn't much talking so I think that was a success too. And to make it even better, the Celtics game was on several TVs and there was a music Bingo game going on (with REALLY great questions and an excellent game host)! Thanks for such a fantastic evening!

We went on a Friday shortly after opening (4:10) and were told there was a 15 minute wait. Okay, so we waited 20 and were seated at a quiet table in the back corner for a party of 2. We walked by many open tables, which was a bit curious to see. Our server, Alisha, promptly came by to take our drink order. I asked her for recommendations on a few things I was considering and it was a new menu that was in the offering for the first time. She was helpful with comments about meals she had served and remained attentive throughout our meal. I opted for the pulled pork tacos with pineapple salsa. It was a good choice with coleslaw and roasted Brussels. My husband got the maple glazed chicken with roasted butternut squash. He enjoyed his dinner as well. Portions are quite generous as well, more than we were able to finish. Glad we waited and we'll be back!

On a Sunday, early afternoon, my husband and I stopped in to Patrick's. Usually when we are in the area, they aren't open yet. We were amongst about 20 people that seemed to belong to a motorcycle gang/group. We were seated at a small table near the bar. Lots of other patrons were coming in to watch the Patriots game. The bar is MASSIVE. It can seat so many people! My husband had the buffalo wings (though it's an app, it was plenty as a meal). I took a picture of our food, but I don't know what the sandwich was called. It was a lunch special. It was very good. I love the way they make their fries/chips. Cooked so well! I had to try not to fill up on those too quickly! Our waitress had a trainee with her. They both did a lovely job. We were in & out of there in no time. No complaints & want to go back some time for dinner.

Walked in with my special lady friend. Bypass the wait for a table by going straight to the bar. 2 seats available for us. We had great service. Live music. Ice cold and tasty beer. Got seafood chowder. My lady got Reuben and she loved it. Clean. Bartenders very attentive. Just couldn't be better. Side note. Couldn't get Uber from Hank Williams show so slept on the front steps for an hour or so then walked home. Even that was perfect.

Patrick's is a favorite in Gilford, everything on the menu is consistently delicious and you can't go wrong. I especially love the chicken sandwich, fish and chips, seafood chowder, and the pub mac. The service is usually fast despite having a full house with lines out the door. Patrick's is mostly always packed and for good reason, like I said, you can't go wrong so I highly recommend coming here. It's great for large groups too, anywhere from 2-20! The only complaint is their weird times of being open, they open late lunch time for some reason!?

Excellent food and service every time we've visited! We've been going there for years and have never had a bad meal or seen anyone treated poorly by the staff. Angela's review below sounds like sour grapes and apparently based on her review she believes the entire Lakes Region of NH is anti LGBTQ.

Got takeout. So can not speak of the facility. But, while the a classic Reuben is hard to F-up, this place makes a pretty good one. And thus, I must give it a thumbs up since they kept the Hungry American fed while on the go!

The review from this Angela regarding Patricks being homophobic is a complete lie. I am a local- born and raised and Patricks is accepting of ALL people. I do not work there but have been on the receiving end of them assisting our community needs without question. This woman was upset they were being responsible with their serving and has bashed them anywhere they are able. I hope she hires an attorney so they can tell her how ridiculous she is. Please support Patricks and share all positive experiences! They are fantastic!

We were looking for a local place to eat and saw the parking lot full. Good sign! Menu had some good choices, comfort Irish meals. So glad I came! Can't say enough good things! Food is great, service was even better! From sandwiches, to hot meals, to desert, can't disappoint. I ordered the bullseye chicken sandwich, with mash potatoes I chose for a side. Very tasty, mashed potatoes were hot. Most places they are lukewarm to kind of cold. My daughter ordered the drunken chicken tenders. Yes, love the names in the menu! With coleslaw and French fries for sides. No complaints here. Desert was an Irish cake with toffee and ice cream. Oh, we left happy! And you will too if you go.

Had the Patty's special burger which was suppose to have pub sauce ?? Not sure what that special sauce was because it tasted like a regular Burger. Also ordered medium rare & it was cooked well done :( on the good note .. service was great, fun relaxed atmosphere & sweet potatoes fries are the bomb

I frequent Patrick's a few times a year. The staff is friendly, and the food is good. It is quite loud in there, so don't expect a quiet atmosphere! if you dine on a weekend night, it is packed there, even if you arrive by 5:30. I recommend!

Attempted to try Patrick's Pub again on Monday night. We walked in, asked if there was bar seating. Was told that there were seats in the bar area and that waitstaff would be over. So we waited.....and waited. No one ever came over. To include the staff member who informed us that we could get service there. So we left. Can't say we didn't get to patronize them once again. I dunno if it's because we are in out 40's snd not 60's wearing boat shoes coupled with polos that have a little crocodile or polo player on them. Or if that staff just doesn't care. Either way, another attempt and another giant waste of time. Good thing the manager never sent the unsolicited gift certificates after my last review.

I was very pleasantly surprised. We visited multiple times while on vacation and everything was so good. Prices were reasonable, variety was good, quality was great and the drinks strong and delicious. There's usually a wait for a table, which is a good sign! We never had to wait as long as they quoted but I'd urge you to be patient and give this place a go!

This is one of my go to restaurants. The service is always attentive with a smile and the food is wonderful . The atmosphere is friendly. You can always have a conversation at the bar if you want to. Some of my fave's are the steak tips, and the onion soup. And the shrimp cocktail, and the shepherds pie.

Second time here and I have to say it never disappoints. The flat iron steak sandwich is the best I have had. The service is always good and the atmosphere is inviting. Definitely worth the drive.

Read good reviews on Yelp and decided to give it a try before a show at the pavilion. Very glad we came! Food was good, service was great. 3 of the 4 of us got the bullseye chicken and it was fantastic--really great BBq sauce.

Yelp
Service was good, no issues there. Wings were not great, not bad but just not something you would drive for. Fish and Chips were good. French dip seemed to be steak-ums, our party was not a fan, it also was not warm all the way through. On the ball scale out of 5 Wings- 2.7 balls Fish and chips 4.3 balls French dip 1.7 balls Average score 2.9 balls.

Stopped in for a quick bite before the movies. Didn't have much time and we let the server know. He turned around our order super quickly, was extremely personable, but not overbearing. Food was good. Ordered a Buddha Bowl and Caesar salad. There's a reason why this place is always packed. And we made it to the movies in plenty of time!

Good selection of Pub fare, tasty with friendly service. Can be loud, but it's a sports bar atmosphere. Overall a good evening out.

Packed. But is Saturday at dinner time so expected and good to see. Noticeably more year round people up here so there is a wait everywhere, even with call ahead. Service was good and very pleasant (wait staff in dining room). The Bahn Mi special was mostly bun and the "grilled bun" wasn't grilled. Taste was good but need more filling to make it worth ordering again. Fish tacos very good. Reuben very good. Fish n chips very good. French dip very good. "Roasted" veggies side were not roasted and seemed previously frozen. I would avoid them. Fries very good - best ordered crispy. Good overall.

When the food came, I was inspired. The mashed potatoes were hot. Which is difficult... great timing on chef's end. After that.. mac and cheese was a bit tasteless. Coleslaw was fine. And the part I love about BBQ is the sauce and cook. Then Reapply sauce etc.... not here. Just a last min layer. I was impressed with the pan laid with paper. But pan wasn't hot, which would have kept food warmer longer, (as form/function design). And when the BBQ sauce melts the paper, you can accidentally eat paper. So... started impressed, yet finished.... okay. With a few alterations this place could shine supreme.

Patrick's is the quintessential local pub in Gilford. Seems to be the gathering spot for locals, but they are very happy to include visitors as part of the family. We were a group of six on a Thursday night, there to celebrate my cousin's birthday. They had a number of lovely seasonal cocktails as well as wine and beer, all at reasonable prices. We loved the atmosphere. They had live music that night, with the guitarist playing music we knew so, of course, we sang along! We got a nice variety of food. My cousin got the drunk chicken over their mac & cheese. She loved the chicken and I kind of wish I had gotten that, but she felt that the mac & cheese could've been creamier. I tried it and it was very tasty though. I got the fish tacos, and loved them. So delicious! Another in our party got the steak tips, and they came with outrageously yummy French fries. I kind of finished his fries off! For an appetizer we shared the Irish nachos, which was pulled pork and cheese, over their homemade potato chips. So good! They didn't rush us out even though we arrived at 7:15 and they close at eight. It really was a fun time and I would definitely go back next time I'm in the area.

I have been here a few times and your experience really just depends on what you get. The pretzels are good and so are the fish and chips. Some of there specials are ok, others not so much. I would stick to irish cuisine as this is what this establishment is known for. Great service with a nice setting.

We love Patrick's -- we always have at least one meal here whenever we visit the Lakes Region. The food is consistently good, the service is friendly and if you time it right, they sometimes have live music in the bar area. Always a great experience, no complaints!

Delicious food and tons of great drink options. Our server was super friendly and made a great recommendation on the fried chicken sandwich with hot honey sauce. OMG, so freaking good.

This is a good place for pub food and pleasant service. I'm particular about what I choose in a place like this, I go with comfort foud-this is not a farm to table type place. Good beer, lots of options, solid food --their Mac and cheese was delicious. Nice, timeley service.

Was driving by and decided to give this place a try, and I'm glad we did! The dinner rolls were good but the garlic herbed butter they serve with them were next level! Sooo good! My husband got a burger and said it was very good. I got a special that was a siracha fried chicken sandwich- it was huge and delicious! The food was delicious, and the restaurant did great with covid protocols! I would definitely make the trip to come here again!

Best dinner we have had in a long time! We don't live locally, we're visiting the area so we stopped in for dinner! My daughter got mac and cheese, my husband got shepherds pie and I got a chicken Caesar wrap. It was all INCREDIBLE. We literally couldn't stop talking about how good it was. The service was great and quick! Whenever I'm in the area, I'll be back!

Have eaten here 3 times in the last year while in Laconia. Great pub food. Guinness on draft. Their Harvester salad was huge and delicious. If on the specials menu, get the peanut butter ganache brownie... warmed with a scoop of ice cream, if you ask.

Came by with some family in the area for an early dinner on a weekend in summer. The building is quite large and we were seated in the farthest room from the door, close to the restrooms. It was all booths back here and they are a bit snug for four adults. Just about as snug as you can get without being impossible. Although the restaurant was not full, this section seemed to be where patrons were being seated and was mostly full; about a dozen booths I would guess. It did take quite a long time for a member of waitstaff to stop by to take an order and it was also a long wait for our drinks and food to arrive. Service throughout our visit was not attentive and we couldn't find our waiter on more than one occasion. The food offerings are items you would expect: salads, sandwiches, burgers, and so on. Pub food. For the quality of food, service and atmosphere, the prices are about right. If I lived in the area this would not be my 'go to' spot, but for a one off it was acceptable. We were enjoying 'family time' and that helped smooth off the rough edges of our visit.
