Stubby’s Place

Stubby’s is a great place to go for a local experience. The building is not in the best repair, but the staff is amazing and the food is delicious. Their Friday Fish Fry is one of the best I’ve ever had. The fish is fresh and the batter isn’t too heavy. The fries are also fresh cut and delicious. And the prices are great. We go on a regular basis and we have always loved their food!

I went to Stubby’s with my boyfriend for breakfast and both of us were famished. We left queasy.
I want to start off by saying the 2 stars is because our waitress was spectacular. She needs a bigger audience. She’s absolutely great. Her daughter was good too, but the mom really welcomed people and hustled.
Aside from the eggs, everything was pre-​made and ready to be nuked, fried, or toasted. That really didn’t bother me, you get what you pay for.
What turned our stomachs? Well, the kitchen is in the open and well, it’s in the open. Thus, you see the chef and her «habits». Somebody get her some liquid sanitizer. Stat!
Offenses included: coughing without washing, scratching the inside of her nose with her knuckle and not washing (then putting bread in toaster), wiping eye snot and then on her behind. Finally, one big crotch scratch. I’m not kidding.
Coffee was great! Service was above par. Just have to nail those health issues.

this is a great place for a quick breakfast. On the way to candia woods or for a quick bite to eat before a weekend trip.

While bicycling along the nearby Rockingham Recreational Trail we were in need of lunch and found Stubby’s through Unilocal.The entryway was so full of junk and building supplies we considered giving Stubby’s a pass, but once through the door we found the classic roadhouse diner. The kitchen is open to the room and the greeting friendly.
The burger and the steak bomb were both delicious and well prepared. The fries, sadly, were greasy and not at all crispy. It was obvious that they had not been pre-​fried, but had only been dropped once.
A good place for lunch, and from what I saw on the other tables probably great for breakfast.

Stubby’s Place is one of Candia’s best kept secrets. This local nondescript looking breakfast and lunch place is conveniently located off Route 101 at Exit 3, right next to the big cell tower. Just go straight through the 4-​way intersection (3 way stop control) and hang left. The place is open 4:30AM-2:00PM (Mon-​Sat) and 5:00AM-1:00PM (Sun).
Stubby’s Place is a favorite place amongst the locals and regulars to gather and share the latest happenings around town. The atmosphere inside has that hometown country restaurant feel, with counter seating with an open kitchen/​grill and 7 tables in the bright dining room. The owner David does the cooking here. The walls are decorated with several framed pictures including big frames with hundreds of customers pictures and the back wall has a collection NASCAR memorabilia/​pictures.
The breakfast menu offers the typical lineup of eggs, omelets, breakfast sandwiches, pancakes, waffles, French toast, hash, home fries, and sides. The coffee brewed here is Donahue Bros. The lunch menu offerings include sandwiches, burgers, soups, chili, fries, chicken tenders, and beans n’ franks. The prices here are pretty reasonable. Daily Specials are also offered including American chop suey, meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy, and on Fridays, fried fish (haddock).
I stopped in here for breakfast very recently before my shift. Seating here is first come first served. I was offered fresh brewed coffee ($ 1.50) as I took a seat. The coffee here was good, slightly strong, the way I enjoy it.
There were several groups of local seniors carrying on conversations across several tables. They were discussing the recent flooding in the area, and which roads were shut down. I overheard that several roads around Kmart in Hooksett were closed due to flooding, which clued me in to take a different route to work and instead drive through Candia and Deerfield to get to Concord.
I ordered a Western Omelet ($ 5.00) with American cheese ($ 0.50). served with homefries and toast. The 2 egg omelet was halfmoon shaped mix with eggs, and plenty of green peppers, onions, ham, and cheese, pretty good tasting. The homefries were very good, which were soft fresh cut potatoes and browned on the grill. The wheat toast was already buttered.
Overall, the breakfast here was pretty good and standard, nothing fancy, just home cooking. The service was very friendly and attentive. The waitress walked around the dining room with a coffee pot refilling coffee mugs. I was given two much needed top offs on the coffee, to start my long day. I was greeted by the waitress when I entered and exited the place, a great sign that they appreciate my business. I did make it to Concord by dodging a few newly formed ponds along the side of several back roads.
