I prefer Patrick's Pub, cold beer, great drinks, great atmosphere, friendly people, and good food.

We have not yet tried Gringo's but will this year. We have been very happy with El Jimador both in Belmont and Laconia.
Patrick's is just ok. Very noisy, food could be better but ok.
T-Bones is one on top of our list. Consistent, friendly staff and the rewards are good.

I am a retired workaholic and continuing aquaholic.

Returning soon from beautiful downtown Burbank, California.

Gringo food is bad in my opinion. El Jimador (Belmont) is far superior. Have not tried Weirs location yet. Best I ever had was La Carreta further south (Manchester) but El Jimador is comparable.

We have a lot of Mexicans out west, and a lot of Mexican restaurants.

The meal I had at El Jimador compared favorably with what I usually see at the local Mexican restaurants.

You may want to try Hermanos Cochina in Concord. Very good food and 'ritas.

Don't forget Tortilla Flats in Merrimac, the best 'ritas in the state!

Been to Hermanos but Concord not convenient and in my opinion El Jimador is better so why travel further to Concord? El Jimador is just down the street. Still for me La Carreta is the best with El Jimador right there with La Carreta.

Have been a Hermanos fan for many years. Recently tried El Rodeo in Concord, at the bottom of Loudon Road. It is my new favorite.
When I was working in Manchester, La Caretta was my favorite.

Hope this helps,
Bill

Tried El Mariachi on Route 25 in Moultonborough last summer. Food is excellent and so is the service. We'll be back.

Agreed- however, they are closed through April something for the winter. I will read the sign this afternoon and edit the "something"!

Patrick's is noisy but that's the kind of place it is. If your looking for quite then that's not the place to go but I've always had a good meal there and it's a friendly atmosphere. It's your typical Irish sports pub.
