Huge old farmhouse converted into a restaurant with micro brewery downstairs. We visited on a Friday evening and the parking indicated allready a crowded place. And it was, we waited 30 minutes before being seated. Because I was driving only had one beer, a pale ale, tasted good. Teh burger was fantastic. BEcause it was so busy service was although they tried not so friendly.

Watch where you are driving or you might miss the entrance. I did. Parking is limited. When you enter the brewpub you are greeted with the tops of the steel barrels sticking out from the cellar where all the brewing takes place. There is a dining room as well as a bar with a granite top. They sell you five 5 oz. samples for $5 and $1 for each additional 5 oz. sampled (up to three more) that you want to add to the plank. The food tends to have a smoky character to it with some interesting takes on standard comfort foods. My choice was the bison quesadilla. I found that the beer prices were less expensive in the pub than they are in the bottles/cans that are sold around New Hampshire.

I’ve been here a few times over the years, we stopped here on the way home form Ebeneezer’s and this review reflects that visit. The restaurant is in an huge old restored farmhouse, there are rooms for rent upstairs with a bar area out back. Brew house is behind glass downstairs from the bar. We sat at the bar for a late lunch. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, and our beers were solid if not unremarkable. For a place with smokehouse in the name you would expect to find great bbq, So that’s what I ordered. I had a brisket and sausage chili which was the highlight of my meal. The pulled pork platter came with mashed potatoes and cole slaw. The pork was slathered to the rafters in sweet sticky barbeque sauce but even underneath the sauce the meat seemed dry. The slaw was really nice and the taters were taters. Typical resort town pricing a bit on the high side. I would go back and give them another shot, but this trip wasn’t horribly impressive.

A good stop if your heading back from a day hike in the whites or if you’ve been out camping for a few days, its a great stop ! My wife and I headed out for an early spring day hike and hit this place up for lunch. We shared a full serving of smoked ribs and they were really good but a huge portion... we didnt even get to the toast, coleslaw and mashed potatoes that were served under the rack of ribs... anyway the beer is solid with a good varied menu of 8+ in house brews. Worth a visit to get the sampler a little snack and leave with a few growlers.... on a side note we purchased three growlers and our waiter said they would stay fresh without opening them for a about a week even though the growler says to consume within 24hours... that being said they poured great within the week time frame and I even set the stout aside in the back of the fridge for 2+ weeks and when i finally opened it it had all the bubble and flavor that it did when I sampled it... PLEASED and ready to grab some refills. Try the IRON MIKE too !

Had a great family dinner here. Server was great. Food was pub-ish and very solid. They messed up our beer order (switched white for tripel), but not the end of the world.

Lunchtime stop. Decent place, friendly, not crowded. Beers was OK. Overall worth a stop if you’re in the area.

Moat Mountain Smoke House and brewing co: Serve was friendly unlike some rumors we heard. Overall the craft beer is really fresh and slightly above average. Beer and food is what you would expect to pay at any brew pub near a vacation spot. The value is the taste. The brisket and rack of ribs were very tasty and well prepared and was served quickly after ordering. However we ate at lunchtime and I would expect to wait longer at dinner time. I would recommend making a trip here if you are anywhere in northern NH. Me, personally will be making a trip back at a later time! Good place, good food and good craft beer.

I go there every time i am in the area. Ambiance is not greattoo many kids in the joint.Service is average. Not a huge selection of beers, but the house beers are well made and tasty. the food is good. The wings are huge and very good. You get your moneys worth. Overall it is a nice place to enjoy a pint of decent beer and good food.

This was a really nice, cosy place to sit at the bar on a Sunday evening at the tail end of the Winter season with just (friendly) locals around, while the snow was falling, knowing that we only had to wander back across the road to an adjacent motel afterwards. 6 beers on tap were OK although nothing exceptional, but sometimes it’s about more than just the beer quality. A very enjoyable stop. Might be rather less relaxing and congenial at the weekend or the at the height of the season. Didn’t eat.
