Best Burger in the Manchester Area --- NH Magazine Best of NH 2024
We are proud to announce that New England's Tap House Grille has been named the Best Burger in the Manchester Area by New Hampshire Magazine in its 2024 Best of NH awards — continuing one of the longest-running winning streaks in the competition. Our eleventh year in Hooksett, and our burger is still earning this honor. That consistency reflects a kitchen culture that holds the line on quality no matter how long you've been at it.
The Burger in 2024: What's Changed and What Hasn't
Some things never change: fresh Certified Angus beef, hand-pressed daily, on a toasted brioche bun. Those fundamentals haven't moved since day one. What has evolved is our sourcing depth — with Hip Peas Farm supplying more produce to the menu than ever before, our burger accompaniments now regularly feature farm-fresh toppings in season. The kitchen has also expanded its burger offerings over the years, introducing specials and seasonal variations that give regulars new reasons to explore while the classic burger holds its ground.
What to Pair With It
An award-winning burger deserves an award-winning beer. Our 48 rotating taps — also recognized by NH Magazine this year as the best beer list in the state — give you dozens of options for the perfect pairing. If you're not sure where to start, our bar staff will point you toward something that works. A crisp lager for a clean complement. A hazy IPA for something aromatic and tropical. A dry stout if you're feeling bold. Whatever you choose, the burger holds up.
