Lily LAugust 4, 2013Order a NBPT beer on draft. The Grog pours all 3 brews, which is unheard of elsewhere exposure-wise for this new keg and can brewery, launched circa May 2013. Try the Plum Island Belgian White first.- Ryan DanielsDecember 30, 2012Great New England pub atmosphere with 30+ beers on tap! The grog burger is a great go to; fried oyster BLT for the adventurous. Try to get a seat near the fireplace.
Amazing gluten free menu! Get their boneless buffalo chicken and a small basket of truffle fries. And if you can eat gluten, don't leave without eating their fish and chips!
Scott BoyagesAugust 27, 2017Nice pub atmosphere, 30+beers including some local brews and food really good. Staff is great too. If you're into pub food and beer definitely check it out.
Karolina SadovaMay 18, 2014Great kids menu for those who tries to challenge their kids to eat smth except mac&cheese and French fries&nuggets
Jackie ToddFebruary 19, 2017The lobster bisque is awesome. The rest of the food was good, but not anything I'd do backflips for. Will be back just for the bisque!
The best beer selection in Newburyport. Plus oysters.
Awesome pulled pork and one of the few bars in town that has Blanton's on the top shelf.
To each their own - but Saturday night crowd isn't my cup of tea - live music downstairs for $5
- Erin DApril 22, 2011Get the burger! Add sauteed mushrooms - they're fresh and garlicky and fantastic.
Brendan ColtenJuly 15, 2011If you're here for drinks get a Grateful Dead, you'll thank me when you regain consciousness
Cyn StoltzAugust 19, 2016Ordered fried clams which I love and where better? Tough, chewy and full of grit. Gross. Disappointing.
Ann SextonFebruary 21, 2012The local asshole punched my friend in the face for no reason whatsoever. Don't go here the regulars suck.
