Awful awful awful. Came here for a quick dinner before we hit the road to head back to Boston after July 4th weekend at the lake. After waiting foreeever for our 2 draft beers, we got our appetizers: Boring jalepeno poppers with what I'm certain was velveeta inside. And the coconut shrimp, charred on the outside, raw shrimp on the inside. Gross. Then we waited another epoch of time until entrees dropped. Â My sister's chicken parm was almost totally raw when she cut into it. Â After the kitchen re-made it, she was served a portion approximately half of the original and fried within an absolute inch of it's life. Â We asked to speak with the cook (nope, I will not call him a chef) who's excuse for serving RAW food was that they just introduced a new menu. Â I'm still not clear on how that affects their actual ability to cook.
Review Source:Came here for lunch with some family after a reunion on the lake got cancelled due to snow and high winds over Memorial Day weekend (thank you, global warming!). Walking through the door, my first thought was that this place is very cool: very small-town NH feel with exposed plank floors and bar tables with white birch legs that are built right into the wall.
The menu is pretty solid with the standard pub fare plus a few interesting twists. I got a BBQ pulled pork sandwich with caramelized onion and cheese that was so good I wanted to curl up inside it and take a nap, and the fries were thick-cut and crispy -- perfect. We also got some buffalo chicken dip that was excellent as an appetizer, and my cousins had high marks for the Philly steak subs and veggie burgers as well (the veggie patty had actual discernible vegetables in it and looked to have been made on site, which was nice to see).
The only drawbacks? Well, the waitress was mildly surly (though it was more amusing than annoying) and the food took quite a while to come out, though it was worth the wait. The prices were decent and the food was good enough that I'll definitely stop by here again if the rescheduled reunion in July also gets snowed out. Â :-P
I would have probably given the place at least a 2/5, but they neglected to mention a $1.50 up charge for sweet potato fries. Even though it was on the menu, as a courtesy, the servers should mention it when they ask you if you want one of the other options.  We had the same problem in two different extremes with our entrees. My lobster cake burger was very bland and lukewarm (tasted almost like a veggie patty) and my fiancée's French Onion Soup was overly salted.  Not a great experience here at all.
Review Source:Hungry on a Sunday evening, we decided to try this relatively new establishment. The other reviews pointed us to the burgers as a cautious first try. Good toppings but the burgers themselves were a mixed bag (one good; the other thinner and overcooked). The Caesar wrap with chicken was good.
Worth the trip.
I Â I've been in several times. Â IMO the best place in Meredith to get a drink. The price is right and the ambiance is fitting.
My first couple of times in I had the steak tips which were very tasty but the portion size was telling me that ownership is more interested in selling booze than food. After all the owner was previously a long time bartender from a popular watering hole in the Weirs. His experience with liquid may be the reason that lead to this 2 star review.
My last visit was in the company of 3 friends. We went in for a quick drink and an app or two. We ended up getting the large nacho plate which was large only by a stretch of the imagination and we also ordered the beef barley soup. We all agreed this was the worst soup we ever ate. Between the three bowls we were only able to find one piece of meat. The lonely piece was about a quarter the size of a sugar cube and accompanied by six or so grains of barley. The soup was basically 99.9% broth and flavor less at that.
This experience inspires me to want to organize a walk on the state capitol to fight for consumer rights. When a person goes into a restaurant and orders/eats food but fails to pay they can spend a night in jail. It should go both ways. The owner of the Frog Rock should be incarcerated for fraud calling this soup and taking our money for it.
The worst part of the experience can hours later as I was reminded of the soup while hastily getting to and sitting on the thrown :(
I'll go back for a drink but I'll never eat there again.
My family was in town visiting and we were looking for a quiet place for a small bit after a large lunch. Â This fit the bill perfectly. Â Nice casual atmosphere. Â Cheaper than the restaurants at the shops. Â Drinks in jars were a nice touch. Â As already commented the clam chowder very good as were the rangoons. Â We didn't sample a lot of other items. Â The menu is not very extensive as mentioned but I suspect they've decided to put only items that they feel are decent rather than a large menu with some good some not so good. Â Definitely a place worth checking out if you're not looking for anything fancy.
Review Source:This place is great!
We were in town for a wedding and had some time to kill until the afternoon ceremony, so we came here for lunch. A great pub atmosphere with a good selection of beer on tap.
For lunch we got the clam chowder - bursting with flavour. GF got the veggie burger and proclaimed it the best ever. I got the regular burger and that was fantastic.
Attentive service (she saw us on the iPad and told us about the free WiFi) and when we left something on the table, the bartender came out after us to return it to us - now that's great service.
If you have not tried FROG ROCK TAVERN yet....you are missing out! The menu has awesome apps, delicious burgers, amazing salads and phenomenal entrees! The best veggie burger and turkey burger I have EVER had. This restaurant is locally owned and operated by the most wonderful family who truly care about their customers and it shows! The decor is so too wonderful to describe, you have to see it for yourself and you will see what heart and soul was put into every aspect of the design. Set u top the hill behind The Inn at Mills Falls....with the brook running right under the restaurant, sit out back in the three season porch and listen to the water flow and watch the kids fish! Stop in after work for a drink and catch up on the world with one of the huge flat screen TV's.
So..if you haven't been yet...and you just read this....I hope you are saying to yourself "What am I waiting for?!"
