If you've never driven by the Barley House, you have never driven by the New Hampshire State Capitol building.
The proximity of the two has given this semi-Irish themed restaurant something of a political motif, particularly regarding the New Hampshire Primary's influence on its decor and occasional menu offerings in the past that I can't recall off the top of my head.
Today though I shyed away from that and tried a more tried and true meal: the Reuben sandwich.
I've definitely had worse deli meat, but the corned beef here was still a little too thick to be considered exceptional. Otherwise, the sandwich was fine, if a bit overpriced due to the convenience of its location.
They also offered a choice of sides and I took the cole slaw, which was a tad bitter, but overall acceptable.
Their meals also come with a free hummus dip appetizer along with pretzel and breadsticks, so that was a bonus.
I've been to the Barley House before and had some damn good meals. This one wasn't fantastic, but I can't complain. The food, along with pretty much everything else there during my visit, was fairly mundane except for the few male waiters there wearing kilts. Have they always worn kilts?
