Thumbs up Some History

Patrick's, opened in 1987, is named after the original owner's (Walter Kelleher) father from Macroom, County Cork, Ireland. Patrick's was an instant hit due to it's comfortable setting and quality food. Walter also operated two boats on Lake Winnipesaukee, the Aishling and the Tir Na Nog.

Patrick's was purchased from Walter Kelleher in 1994 by Jeff & Allan Beetle, bringing a new spirit of quality, enthusiasm and service. For over 17 years, the Beetle family has operated the pub, including Wendy Beetle (Jeff's wife), Jennifer Beetle (Allan's wife), Harvey Beetle (father) and off-and-on help from Nicole and Kyle, Brian, Martha, Christy and soon enough Brendon.

During this time, Patrick's has made several upgrades and expansions to the restaurant. They have been recognized with several prestigious awards including Restaurant of the Year (New Hampshire Lodging & Restaurant Association), Good Neighbor Award (National Restaurant Association) and Corporate Soul Award (Belknap County Economic Development Council).

I started going to Patrick's back in 1988 with friend's and family, and was a very happy customer from 1988 until 2005, when I moved to Texas. I wish they had a restaurant here! Patrick's Pub & Eatery is one of the best run and managed restaurants in the entire country, let alone the Lakes Region. Food preparation, quality freshness, service, ( The wait staff do an incredible job as well ) and the price is right! I never heard one complaint from any of my family and friend's during all of those years and since, as many still go there.

Just thought I'd throw my 2 cents into the hat...
