“ A little slice of Key West right here in New Hampshire! The Kooks Beach bar has an inviting, laid-back vibe that instantly put me at ease. Ice-cold beer, friendly staff, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere made for an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind and soak up some good vibes and friendly staff. ”
“ Fantastic dive restaurant! Please know that I mean dive as in unpretentious, with a focus on good food, drinks, and atmosphere rather than fancy decor or high prices. The first thing that struck me was how friendly and personal the waiters were. My family felt very welcome. Next up is the menu: It's a short Mexican style menu with tacos, bowls, plantains, smoothies, and other fare. The food was very tasty, and the cocktails and mocktails were great. We sat outside at a picnic table for dinner, but they also had indoor seating and proper tables outside too. We will definitely be back the next time we're on the coast. ”
