Ye Olde Tavern is an excellent taste of New England, with the classic Vermont mixed in. Their servers are attentive and caring, and take care of their customers. You also get very good value. Their special beer brewed by Switchback is excellent.
I have to also give a shoutout to the staff that helped us when my wife lost her bracelet down a bathroom drain. I cannot imagine many restaurants close to home that would have gone through the effort to retrieve the lost bracelet, further confirming how much they care about their customers.
100% recommend and will definitely dine again when back in Manchester.

We just love Ye Olde Tavern. From the atmosphere to the service and delicious food, the tavern is my go-to dinner spot when in Manchester. Their cranberry fritters are yummy; the salad is on point and my scallops were amazing. Everything was perfect.

An amazing experience altogether.
Food was tasty with good portions.
Love the old themed drinks.
The theme of the atmosphere was spot on, with the warped floors and decorations.
Would love to go back again.

Our experience began with Josie, our server, who is the very best I've ever met. The moment I put my menu down, she was there to take our order, she somehow managed to put items on the table without us noticing, and was extremely pleasant and professional.
First, we had the Cranberry Fritters with Maple butter. We ordered the Almond & Brown Sugar Encrusted Brie and Crab Stuffed Mushrooms for appetizers, had the House Balsamic with Bleu Cheese crumb on our salads, and for dinner I had the Venison with Mushroom Bourdelaise, my husband had one of the specials (sirloin with onions and cheeses), my daughter had the Atlantic Salmon with Horseradish crust, and my son had the Traditional Pot Roast. Soft, delicious bread was served as well. For dessert, we had the Chocolate Bombe Flambés.
Everything was perfectly cooked and delicious. My daughter said, "I don't know how they do it, but even the salad tastes better here." Indeed, everything did!
The Tavern itself is decorated with antiques and is very warm and inviting.
I highly recommend you make a reservation and experience Ye Olde Tavern the next time you're in Manchester.
