Liked my time here! Even though we sat at the bar and the entire place was super crowded, the service was pretty efficient. The cocktails were made in front of our eyes and were very tasty and definitely not watered down like in some other places (we took Irish coffees). The lobster rangoons were also pretty good!

I'd give a 5 if they had fried clams on the menu.

Love the classic mainstays. Overworked bartender still did a great job, very professional. Met some nice people, great vibe. Too bad no music these days, but that may change. Like everywhere they need more staff but none to be

The clam chowder was orange. Seemed to have butter instead of cream. The chowder was the worst I have hadFish tacos had no taste. At least the fish was fresh. It had all the right ingredients but no taste. Same goes for the Grog

It is an excellent place for great food. I love the ambiance. The service is really good. The prices are competitive. It is a place for everyone.

I'm here once a month with my grandmom; it's her favorite. Staff is always pleasant and helpful. There's usually a short wait, but that's because we tend to go early afternoon on Sundays, so, as to be expected; and it's almost always much less wait time than is estimated (there's also self-seating at the bar to wait or stay at, if there's space).Menu has a nice variety; I personally love the scallops, steak tips, and their (ridiculously large) burrito...I don't drink, but they have a robust beer menu with lots of local brewers showcased - Grandmom really enjoys the Gunner's Daughter. ?They also have some fun events here and there, like live music, and an upcoming comedy for shelter pups charity night, and such.Overall, friendly, warm, neighbourhood pub.Vegetarian options: Some nice options for vegetarians (sorry, vegans! I don't think these would match for you..) - seafood section with boiled, baked, and fried options, full meal size salad options, some sandwiches (like brie & pear mmm), and some other bits here and there.Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free (labeled)Parking: Small lot, or street parking. Timing matters, because it is right in downtown.Kid-friendliness: Average for a family style pub.

Such a cozy little American restaurant with a vintage, nostalgic feel. The staff was friendly and genuine, but the reason I’m writing is the food!! I’m constantly in Newburyport and for some reason this place was always pushed toward the end of the list to visit. I wish I had visited sooner now!! Our burger was so so SO good; cooked perfectly medium rare and the fries were delicious as well. The flavors on the burger (candied bacon and Brie) were unreal. Can’t wait to go back now and hopefully enjoy it just as much. :)

I don’t like giving negative reviews, but the bartender tonight was very rude to us.

Their 12 oz boneless sirloin is excellent. They use a dry rub of seasonings that is delicious. It comes with a veggie and a potato or a different side. Both my husband and I love steak. We get this every time we come here. This steak is very tender. The Grog is a low key casual dress restaurant in a small laid back kinda hippie-like town close to the Newburyport waterfront where they have many events in the summer months on the pier. We love everything about this town. The cost of two steak dinners without appetizers, with two sodas, before tax was $72.00.Parking: They have their own gravel parking lot on the side of the bldg. We usually find a spot but when busy it fills up so you may have to find a spot on the street and walk a little. This is a very busy area of Newburyport but well worth the trip especially if you add in walking around the many quaint boutiques or go to the waterfront pier. We love Newburyport waterfront. Use your gosh in case you have to drive around looking for a parking appt only because of the one way streets in this area.

Would've loved to eat here but it was a long wait (45min minimum) at 2pm on a weekday for two people. Come on!

Very impressed with EVERYTHING! The restaurant has a very nice atmosphere of old American bar/restaurant. The food was 10/10 with super reasonable prices. Fresh oysters with best price in town. Service was great. Everyone just so nice and friendly.

Service and atmosphere are great. While the menu has great selections the execution falls short. Chowder was watery and mostly potatoes. All the other sandwiches we ordered were dry and a bit tasteless. Best things we're the fries which were cooked to perfection. Love the interior and the vibe. Maybe next time will just go for a beer.
