Goldenrod Restaurant - American restaurant in Manchester - 1681 Candia Rd, USA

Nice restaurant with walk-up that is off the freeway. Decent portions, reasonable prices, and amazing selection of ice cream. We ordered the lobster roll, clam chowder and ice cream (total about $50). It was busy place but service was prompt , with lots of indoor and outdoor seating.

Goldenrod Restaurant was recommended to us by the manager of the campground we were staying at. She said the seafood was the "freshest around." Well, she wasn't lying. We ordered the fried haddock plate with ff and the whole bellies plate ($27.99)with onion rings ($1 extra). Portions were generous and perfectly prepared. I had to take 1/2 of mine home because it was just too much. The onion rings are hand-cut and hand-battered and were just delicious! We didn't have room on this visit to try one of their 37 flavors of ice cream, but we will go back before we leave this area. You can eat outside at one of several tables or eat in the basic dining area at tables or booths. Nothing fancy, but the food is really good!

I ordered the “ hot turkey sandwich “ and I truly thought it was going to be like a thanksgiving sandwich with carved turkey. They used turkey deli meat and threw it on top of two pieces a bread that was drenched in gravy. The smell was horrible and visibly it looks unappetizing.

The food was good, but the portions were small. The clam chowder was a little watery. The service was a little slow but people were good. I would go back.

What an incredible restaurant. Tucked away just off the freeway in New Hampshire. Some of the most fresh and well cooked seafood I’ve ever had. This coming from a Bostonian. Don’t forget to try their incredible ice cream as well!

First time here and of course I had to get the lobster roll, my kids got a grilled cheese and chicken strips. The loved the lobster roll and fries! This place has my favorite fries! Just need some fry sauce! Everything was cooked fresh to order. Inside is a little older, but that doesn't matter when there's great food. Definitely will be my new go to spot for lunch. There is an extra charge when using a card, I did not like that. So bring cash when you come here.

Here's the scoop! Best Shrimp Plate and Chicken Tender Plate around! Good portion! Reasonably priced! Light and crisp! Drawn butter for shrimp and sweet sauce for tenders! Coleslaw was delicious as well! Fries were CRISPY good without being overcooked!! The place has been revamped inside since I've been there! Soon to return!

"Disappointing Dining Experience" I recently visited this establishment and while the service was excellent, I can't overlook the severe issues with the food quality. Unfortunately, the poor quality of ingredients, including the use of rancid cooking oils instead of organic options, led to an unpleasant dining experience that left me feeling unwell. It's disheartening when great service is overshadowed by subpar food choices.
