I visited on yesterday afternoon around 3 PM. Â I had spent a few hours hiking at the dunes by Cranes Beach with many friends with a meetup group. The organizer, Beth, had called the bar the day before to say that ~30 people would be coming. Â As it turns out, we had ~50 people and took over much of the place. The manager was a little overwhelmed at first but he and his staff were calm, and did their best to serve all of us. Â I did not here any complaints from my fellow hikers. We came here last year after the same hike, and will likely be back next year. The food was very good as well.
Review Source:A great place to eat, drink, socialize or just watch a sporting event and if you like Keno they have that too. Â The bartender is Paul and he is one of the most likeable and friendly people you'll ever meet. Â The rest of the staff are great as well but Paul goes out of his to make you feel welcome.
The menu offers something for everyone and they'll prepare it anyway you like. Â I'm not a seafood person so I usually stick with burgers or one of the many specials that are offered. Â Their meatball parm subs are very good.
The bar area is the primary focus of the restaurant but off to the left is a large dining area and there is also a more private area off to the front right if you choose. Â Outdoor seating is available too. Â To the right of the bar is a large area with pub tables, dart boards, a pool table and several video games as well as a juke box.
The one turnoff for people is the exterior of the building, which may cause you to rethink entering but once inside you'll be happy. Â The interior decor is a bit dated but that is the charm of the place. Â The clientele varies but you'll see many Ebsco employees coming in as well as business owners and locals. Â Usually when Ithaki across the street closes for the night the bar patrons find their way over here.
Oh and you will absolutely love this place once your check arrives and you realize how inexpensive this place is!

Very happily stumbled upon this place for dinner after an unsuccessful trip to crane's beach. The bartender (manager ) sat us outside on the patio and provided us with very friendly service as well as explained the extensive menu. The menu was extensive for a sports bar in a small town and the prices were so reasonable. This is the place to go to sit outside and have great food if you are not in a hurry. Might even meet some locals to take you to the beach !
Review Source:When we first walked into this place, I felt like Pee Wee Herman when he walked into the biker bar. There were some gruff looking regulars who looked like vampires when I opened the door and let a sliver of light in.
I proceeded directly to the patio outside. It turned out that I had to go back into the bar, as there are no servers. I was happy to see that they had Ipswich Ale on tap, but there might be some city law in Ipswich that this is required. I'm not sure.
Long story short, the food was pretty darn good! The bartender/server warmed up after a while and even turned out to be kind of nice. I would definitely go back here, but I'm still not sure I could sit at the bar. Those seats seem kind of assigned to the vampires.
Cold beer. Tasty food, pool tables, photo hunt game, darts. I like it a lot. Hit this place up on a day trip to Ipswitch. Walked in by chance b.c. the restaurant across the street that I wanted to go to was having a private party. The place was fun. Booze was cheap, and staff was friendly. It was definitely a local place though. Played a few games of pool and some photo hunt (both erotic and normal). Good times. Left pretty drunk, and headed to 1640 Hart House for dinner. Review on that to come.
