WORST SERVICE AND VALUE EVER. This is how our dinner went at the Flying Goose recently: -Get seated -Wait 10 minutes -Place our drink order (attempt to place dinner order but waitress shuffles off before we can) -Wait 10 minutes -Get drinks, place dinner order -Wait 30 minutes -Get dinner, eat it and then -wait 20 minutes for waitress to come back and check on things, at which point she asks if we want dessert. Reluctantly we say we do, so she goes to get a menu and we -wait 10 minutes -Waitress finally brings the menu and of course, shuffles off again, and we -wait 10 minutes for her to come back and take our order -About another 10 minutes go by and we are told that the item we ordered is no longer available. Naturally she didn't think to bring the check with her when she delivered the news. We opted not to order something different, and of course it was another 5 minutes before the check was brought to us, another 5 before it was picked up, etc... All in all it was 2+ hours for a one course meal. I don't even want to get started on the food. I ordered the Mac n Cheese, and was shocked to receive a very SMALL bowl, that contained no kielbasa (like the menu claimed it had) and it was barely warm...oh yea and it was $18. I guess when you're the only restaurant in town, you can not give a damn about your customers or the quality of your product and people will still give you business. I suggest the owner and/or managers go down to O seafood and steak to learn what $18 of mac n cheese is supposed to look like.

The food is wonderful such great flavor and presentation. The atmosphere is terrific and you the views from the restaurant are awesome of Mt. Kearsarge and the surrounding area. I take all my guests to the Flying Goose everyone loves it. I have some guests that ask are we going to the Flying Goose tonight?! Part of their visit is to eat at the Flying Goose! the only negative aspect of the restaurant is when you get a lot of people in the dining room because of the high ceilings and all the windows the restaurant can get quite loud with lots of people and makes dinner conversation rather difficult. But other than that we love it and always name it a Must See for NH Magazine surveys!

I love this place. The beer and food is great. It's worth the drive even an hour away.

Waited forever for service, waited forever for food, window available but put elsewhere, all four of us ordered medium well done on our meat and all was well done, second wine never came, had to ask different waiter for ketchup, waiter never came to see how we were doing, no pickles came on plate and no water. Loved the stout.

About 90 minutes away from Boston lies this brewery and restaurant which serves up cold pints of beer and some generously-sized plates of food out in the middle of pretty much nowhere. Entering this place you'll find a pretty nice spot with a big dining room area and a pretty big fireplace. It's nothing special, very casual, but it's comfortable and has a decent atmosphere. In the backyard, as you peer through the windows, you'll see the mountains in the backyard which is very nice and in the restaurant's backyard are giant solar panels and the two large parking lots. So far so good. There were six of us seated at the table and we decided to skip individual appetizers and instead opted for a couple of plates of shared apps. We go two orders of onion strings ($4.99 each) and they promptly arrived at our table. While they were dangerously tasty, they were also extremely oily. I understand that onion strings require them to be fried however these clearly were not allowed to sit for a few seconds so that excess oil could drip away. There was oil all over the place. We also got flights of beer, which, in my opinion was the highlight of our visit. I got five different kinds, each featured in a 4oz pour. I can't recall the price of the flight but it was well worth it. I had their oatmeal stout which was outstanding and very comparable to a creamy Guinness. Their IPAs were decent and their nut brown ale was pretty good as well. All in all, the beer was good and might I say great, in some instances. The selection is varied and there's nearly a dozen to pick from which is sure to suit any palate out there. As an entree, I decided to get their Chef Cover's combo ($17.99) which is a platter featuring baby back ribs, 'Potter Place' pork and some fixiings. It's one of their most expensive items and I was looking forward to digging into some ribs and sides - I picked baked beans and coleslaw as my sides. The Potter pork was decent but the ribs were completely undercooked. They were hours away from being fall off the bone and speaking of bones, my ribs were dry: bone dry. Not all that great but things got worse when I tried the baked beans which weren't traditional at all and featured some bell peppers chopped up in there. It was weird and not all that great either. For nearly $20, I was excepting something a lot better. I wasn't able to push through, the food was below average and really fell short of my expectations. My dining companion's dishes were hit or miss - it was nothing amazing. Because I wasn't able to eat my plate of overly dry meat, I had to order dessert - I got a the brownie sundae ($5.99) and it was okay. The service was as weird as it gets. The woman seemed easily confused by the simplest of requests and wasn't very attentive. She often forgot some of our food and when my fiancee's steak tips were completely overcooked, she didn't apologize or offer to redo them, instead saying that their kitchen was backed up and that it was normal for them to have come out that way. What the hell? Seriously? I really wanted to like this place. A roaring fire, a nice table with cold, fresh beers but unfortunately the service and the food were sub-par. On the plus side, you get amazing views, it's clean and there's plenty of parking. This place is good if you want a cold beer or two but I'd skip the food.
