Newcastle Publick House

Great spot. Great people. Menu rocks and is reasonable. If you're near it, get in there.

Great food! I don't usually like chicken wings, but the chicken wings here have made me a convert!! I'm craving them a week later. And the ranch dressing is really a special thing.

Good the other night but the chefs at inconsistent. Wait staff is friendly but sometimes inattentive. Parking: Tough to park on open mic night.

I went for the first time to Oysterhead Lounge which is part of the Newcastle Public House but sort of separate also. It's a lounge upstairs that has live music and events and a separate bar from the restaurant. I went for open mic night and it was really fun! They had a really awesome open mic setup. There were lots of jams and the local camaraderie vibe was pretty awesome. There's also a small pool table room off of the lounge. It's a fairly small space so it gets pretty crowded. I got the haddock sandwich which was delicious. The bartenders weren't the friendliest but they were rude either, maybe just busy or having an off night. Vegetarian options: They had a tempeh Reuben and vegan meatloaf on the menu Parking: Parking at restaurant

Always good, always friendly and fast. The oysters are incredible. Get a reservation early if you want to be sure of seating, since also always full. We usually reserve a full month in advance and have managed to get a table by the window, great to look out on the quaint New England town.
