  We showed up with an unannounced group of 20+ people just an hour before closing, and the service could not have been better. James, the manager, and Gabe, our waiter, were absolutely great and didn’t hesitate at all to take care of us. When 11:00 closing time came, they never rushed us out the door. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was fantastic, and the service was top-notch. Thank you to James, Gabe and the cooks! Highly recommended…we will be back.

  If you are looking for a legendary night out in Portsmouth, look no further than Oddfellows. While the wood-fired pizzas and vibrant atmosphere are always a draw, the real star of the show is James the bartender. James isn't just a mixologist; he’s an artist. According to recent patrons, he crafts drinks so beautiful you’d swear a "tiny choir sang" when they hit the table. Whether he’s serving up perfectly balanced cocktails or keeping the energy high with his humor, he is consistently described as attentive and sweet. But James’s talents aren’t limited to the bar rail. In a display of true heroism that would put any action star to shame, James recently saved a gaggle of helpless ducks from a vicious weasel attack right in the middle of his shift! To manage a busy bar with fast, friendly service while simultaneously acting as a sentinel for local wildlife is nothing short of miraculous. Go for the amazing drinks, stay for the wood-fired pizza, but most importantly, go to see James—the man, the myth, the protector of ducks. Portsmouth is lucky to have him!

  Was here last night, got the bulgogi pizza and the pork pizza. I've been here before a couple of times but it was really heartwarming to see it so busy yesterday, we actually had to wait a couple of minutes for a table. Delighted to see they're going well. My daughter loves the retro arcade (so do I, to be honest), and the pizza offerings are imaginative and beautifully cooked. There was a bit of a delay waiting for the food, but given they were full on the day, I'd forgive them for that, and our server, Gabe (I think) was really good. Beer selection is usually decent here, and they have a fantastic cocktail selection. As someone who only visits Portsmouth to see family once or twice a year I especially like the seasonal options, both for food and drink. Great atmosphere, keep up the good work!

  This place is fantastic! The mini Bowling, the great bar, the table set up was pretty awesome. Definitely trending! Service was awesome our waitress was great and on top of it. Now the food, when you sit down they get your drink order then so.e excellent popcorn. There is so much tasty choices on the menu it was hard to choose. We had the Brussels sprouts, potato boats, the Hogfather pizza, and the brisket salad. All so good. Definitely going back and trying more. The brunch menu looked so good.

  We have had this place on our list of places to go try. I finally had a day off work. So we drove an hour to go try it out. The atmosphere when you walk in is very nice, very large bar area to eat at. Host was very nice and polite and we were seated within 15 minutes on a Saturday afternoon. This is where it all goes down hill. The waiter came to the table to take our drink order. I said we’ve never been here before we have a few questions. He said well I don’t work the brunch shift so I won’t have any answers for you, sorry. So, we ordered 2 waters and the twist and stout pretzel. After 30 minutes this little tiny pretzel came out that made the pretzels at Sam’s Club look ginormous, and with a price of $10🤔. Still have NO silverware or napkins, have ask twice. Now 45 minutes go by, still no pizza. I walk up to the waiter cause we haven’t seen him since he brought out the pretzel. I ask if our pizzas were made, if not then just cancel the order and I’ll take our check. He stated yours is in the brick oven right now. About 5 minutes he brings my wife’s out then mine a couple minutes later. I said we still need silverware, he walked away. The hostess said did you say you need silverware, so she went and got us some. My wife ordered the pearfection which is supposed to be to have arugula. We ask the hostess to get our waiter. We told him that this was suppose to have arugula he said NO it has basil. I grabbed a menu and pointed to the description where it state’s arugula. He said well sir the kitchen has a different menu than what the customer sees. Why in the world would the kitchen have a different menu than what the customer orders from. I ordered the brisket bliss pizza the entire pizza had enough brisket on it for maybe one bite of brisket. If your paying $16 for a little pizza it should have the ingredients on it your paying for. I ask to speak to a manager and he snared off and said we don’t have a manager. I ask for 2 to go pizza boxes. He brings me 2 to go boxes for food. I said what am I suppose to do just lay my pizza all on top of each other. Again he just walked away. The hostess said I’m so sorry folks, cause she was right beside us at the hostess stand. She went and got us 2 pizza boxes. So we drove and hour to the most horrendous service that we’ve had at a restaurant.
