Moat Mountain Smokehouse & Brewery North Conway

My cousin, who is local, recommended this place to us and she did NOT disappoint! We waited a considerable amount of time but this was to be expected with a party of 15! So no complaints there. The parking situation was ample despite this being a peak time for them. Our server, Taryn or Taran (my apologies for not knowing the correct spelling) was FANTASTIC and should be applauded for her efforts! She handled our party of 15 (including 4 separate checks) flawlessly. She never got frazzled with our large group. She took care of my kids first to make sure they were happy, then she took our drink order to make sure the adults were happy. Other staff also delivered refills or dishes, and they were friendly and professional. The beer was cold and delicious. I heard many positive comments about the drinks from my family members. We took a 4 pack home with us too; the Iron Mike was a very good beer. My kids had the hot dogs and fries, and they were happy. I had the brisket sandwich. It was one of those sandwiches where I became sad as I approached the end of it. Like when you get to the end of a good book you’re kinda bummed that it’s over. Like “what am I gonna do NOW?” My wife had the longhorn brisket nachos, and she couldn’t even finish them! Portions exceeded expectations. I had the chili, and my only regret is not asking them to fill a 5 gallon bucket so I could take this chili home with me. Perfect blend of heat and flavor. This chili exploded with deliciousness. I tried to go back before our trip was over but the timing never allowed it. Their bathrooms were clean, good job maintaining those even during a busy night. I heard the staff saying “corner” or “behind” to prevent collisions and spills. Well trained and professional crew they have there. We had a very positive experience at Moat Mountain, and I would love to come back the next time we are out east. Thank you for a job well done.

We ordered meat lovers sliders, veggie wrap and kids sliders. The sliders are a must try if that’s your thing. Meat was juicy and tender. The chipotle sauce is bomb! The veggie wrap was fresh and very tasty. The fries that come as sides have an amazing seasoning on them. The eight taster flight of beer is a great way to experience the awesome beer they brew here.
