We stopped in for lunch when attended an event that was at the hotel. Food was good and service was good. Our only complaint was that the liquor drinks weren't very strong, we would recommended just getting beer.

I'll start by saying that The Shaskeen is the happiest Irish pub I've ever seen. How rare to walk into a restaurant and just know that everyone present is having a great time. A woman celebrating a birthday was surrounded by a crowd to serenade her. It wasn't clear how many in the throng she actually knew, but who cared? There are no "strangers" in a place like this. I sat at the bar and started with one of several varieties of chicken appetizers. Indeed, this menu offers a lot more options than what I would consider the typical Irish pub. My main course was the beef stew, which was excellent except for one minor detail that seemed a bit "off." I will not share what that was, however, because when I called it to the bartender/owner's attention he gave me more than I would have asked for under the circumstances. I complimented him on the Blanton's bourbon old fashioned I had, and he told me that he literally goes to Frankfort, Kentucky to get it at the source. You will find such an incredible array of restaurants on Elm Street, it can be difficult to narrow down your choices. The Shaskeen should definitely be one of them.

Went here with spouse and 2 small kids. Very friendly staff and not busy at all on a Sunday at dinner time. Started with pretzels, decent. Kids had Mac and cheese, looked super yummy. Was good, not extremely cheesy tasting, I tasted butter more. Adults had fish and chips and steak fajitas. Again was good. Fish very thin and cooked a bit too much (due to how thin), steak was decent but pieces a bit large in tortilla. We definitely didnât hate it but we didnât love it either. We would probably give it another try and maybe go more for a signature dish, like the nachos. Decent selection for food and drinks. Did notice floor when leaving was quite dirty, didnât love that.

So this place has some character, not quite a dive. Fun environment. Beer selection was decent but they were out of a-lot of their beers and the service was slow but good!Definitely recommend... just plan to take a bit.

Came here during college hockey tournament weekend around 330pm on a Saturday. The bar was packed with people and we were lucky enough to get a table. The beer menu is very extensive and they will have anything you want. The waitstaff was very friendly and made suggestions on food and drink. We ordered a few appetizers to go with our beers. We had smoked wings, meatball sliders, moose rolls and naughty tots. The wings were excellen. Ordered them with mild sauce and it still had some heat. They were very large wings. Naughty tots were crispy tots with a spicy dipping sauce. Meatball sliders came in 3 sliders with a big meatball in each one. The moose rolls were very tasty and resembled a egg roll with meat and cheese fillings. Prices were not too.bad for a few hours of drinks and food around $130 for 4 people. The place was also very clean.

Hidden local gem, located right in downtown Goffstown. Excellent, friendly, attentive staff. Fun atmosphere. They frequently have live bands. The food is excellent, with most of the items being fresh and made in house. My favorite are the soups and burgers. A wide variety of items are offered on the menu. Great sized portions. Excellent value for the money.Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We appreciate your comments and your business.

We tried 110 Grill for the first time. Our waiter Joshua was one of the best waiters around. Outstanding service. The food tasted very fresh. The only issue was the homemade mashed potatoes were not really hot. Otherwise great anniversary dinner

Iâve been wanting to try this place for a while, & decided to stop for lunch. I got a strawberry basil fizz, buffalo chicken dip & The Notorious P.I.G. tacos w/ fries. The drink was good although it didnât look like the strawberries were muddled, just a couple slices. The buffalo chicken dip was good & came w/ homemade tortilla chips - the only downside for me, was that the chips had too much salt & pepper for my taste. The tacos were good, but I donât think the hot sauce that came w/ it did anything for the dish. The handcut fries were crispy & hot. Iâll definitely go back. Hi bethbO7595EZ,Thank you for taking the time to share your review and experience. It is really nice to know that you liked the stay, food and services. Glad to see your positive overall observations which shall definitely motivate us to serve our guests still better. We look forward to welcoming you again soon.

Had dinner here. The atmosphere is nice and very quaint. Dark wood paneling. Great bar area with lots of beers on draft and bottles. Service was excellent. We were seated immediately at 530 on a Thursday. A musician was playing and sounded good and added to the atmosphere. We had the quessadilla, cheeseburger, chowder, and fish tacos. All were very good. I would go back.
