The Peddler's Daughter Irish Restaurant & Pub

Here's another gem that I found to be authentic and charming; would you know that my server defined them both. Full Irish! Arguably the best Irish experience stateside with a warm feeling, signature dishes like the "pork belly" and others. When you visit, and certainly you don't need these comments to convince, have a look around the place. It's rustic, perfectly lit for date night or girls/guys night out. They are known for their secret recipe ketchup. Dare you to try it without licking the jar afterwards.

So before tonight, I would have put this place at 5/5. The food was fantastic and the morning service (6/11/22) was wonderful. However that goes out the window when you get plainly insulting service, if you can even call it that. We drove about 45-60 minutes out of our way to come here a second time (6/14), hoping to get the same top tier service a second time. Instead myself and my partner were ignored for about 8 minutes by all 3 staff members. I get that maybe you're busy with other stuff, so we stayed out of the way as they passed by with other tasks several times (2x looking over a ticket for a few minutes, then one of them and another in the kitchen, and one more heading into a separate back area). When I approached one of the staff who was bussing a table of a few dishes to confirm that the kitchen was still open (referenced the restaurant portion was open to 10, it was 9:35), she said it was. I asked if we could be at least acknowledged to which she responded in a rude tone that she had other customers to deal with (of the three staff, one spoke to one table briefly, and not to provide any apparent service). She then brushed me off with a sarcastic "Have a good night." I'm disappointed by terrible service throwing what I was hoping would be an encoré of service into the trash. Hopefully I'll come back here another time and have a better experience, but it won't be any time soon.

The Peddler's Daughter is an amazing pub located in the downtown Haverhill area. The atmosphere is great, the food is excellent. The owners and employees are great and always interact with everyone. Friendly atmosphere and great local place to hang out with friends or on a date for a couple of drinks. If I could give it more stars I would!

Insanely disappointed with the take out service. My food was simply placed in a giant paper bag, no containers nothing, I get home and all of it is soggy and just falling apart because of the condensation, which wouldn’t have happened if the food was just properly packaged. Beyond a waste of money and beyond disappointed. I certainly won’t be coming back because the lack of common sense used when preparing my order is insane.

This place is a Haverhill classic! Great food and such a rustic atmosphere, that is warming right as you walk through the door. Melissa at the bar delivers great service and makes scrumptious drinks. The rest of the crew is wonderful as well, especially Kit. She is a hard working individual who makes sure all of her guests are taken care of. Love me some peds
