Love this little gem in Warren. I get the Fish Tacos every single time I visit!

This place is amazing! The PBR burger was amazing, my parents kept saying«this is the best fisherman’s stew I’ve ever had», and I will always give 5 stars if the waitress comes around and fill up the water glasses, and she did!

Love love love this place. It was super packed when we went but they were very accommodating at the bar. They had a little trouble keeping up with us with food and drink orders, we had to wait quite a while for service, but I’m sure because it was so busy. Would highly recommend this place, great vibe for a small group in particular

Gotta update to five stars. I’ve had consistently good food and drinks here for awhile and this has become a favorite place to meet up with friends for a drink after work. Loooove that they added bang bang shrimp tacos permanently to the menu. So good.

Great street tacos /fish tacos! Very cozy, however it can be very noisy on busy nights. Wish they had a better beer selection.

Square peg. I sat down at a wobbly wooden table in an old chair with peeling paint and realized it was very cold. Patrons all had their jackets on. The 20′ by 30′ dining area sits directly behind two big doors. Nowhere to hide. I told the waitress, who was wearing a sweater, that it was freezing, and asked for a hot tea. I got it and it wasn’t hot. I ordered fish tacos, which I love because they had a sign outside that said«We Have Fish Tacos.» That’s why I walked through the door! When I got them, two for $ 11, I think. They were also not hot. The fish in my tacos was a rectangular highly battered, crispy patty cut diagonally. Pointy at one end like a slice of pie. Weird shape for a fish taco. Did not like the fish at all. The waitress never came back. I got up and asked her at the bar for my bill. Paid it at the bar. I did not enjoy the service or the food. The music was also loud and the dozen or so patrons made the place uncomfortably noisy.

I heard about this place from a friend, so I decided to try it out. We were greeted from a hostess outside who took our name and told us about twenty minutes too be seated. She recommended that we wait at the bar and she would come get us since it’s a small place. When we went in the waitress waited on us right away and asked us if we wanted a drink, we ordered one and she also gave us many recommendations. We only waited about 10 minutes after we received our drinks and a table opened up and we sat right down. The waitress was very attentive to us and came right over in off recommended some specials that they had. We order the macaroni and cheese bites that was very very good as an appetizer. And then I ordered the blue cheese burger which was very tasty. The waitress was very attentive to us and came over and asked if we needed more drinks, how the food was and the manager come over and asked us how the food was, I have no issues with the staff at all. I highly recommend this place for anyone who wants good food, great drinks and a quaint little place to go. I have no idea what kind of Scotch the other rater ordered but the drinks were very reasonable.

Great little place to stop in Warren. Was pleasantly surprised by the quality and freshness of the food. Tried the square peg burger which was delicious and cooked perfectly and the artichoke and spinach dip. Chips that came with the dip were really salty, but nothing a beer couldn’t quench. Service lacked a bit. Our waitress didn’t have much personality and seemed annoyed when she had to wait on our table. Looking at other employees no one was smiling. Kinda weird. Would definitely go back, but hope for better service next time.

To start, any previous patrons that rated this place low, really should try it again, you likely went on a day where the waitstaff was maybe having an off day. My wife and I are frequent visitors, and have only had one visit where the waiter was completely inattentive, but we brought it to his attention and it was resolved. The food here is amazing, fish tacos are always super fresh and tasty and the fish reuben is the best thing on the menu, in my opinion. I’ve had just about everything, its all great. Beer prices are the same for any craft beers you can buy in Warren restaurants, if you would prefer non-craft, i’m sure they have a few cans or bottles of the junk stuff if you would like. BJ the bartender, is always friendly and on point with drinks, and the owner is there nearly every time we visit. We were living in Warren, and just moved to Portsmouth, but will still make the trip here regularly.

So lets start with the positives: the place is very quaint and inviting looking. We had driven by it a number of times on our way to Blounts and decided to give it a try. Secondly, their chili is really good. I like a little more heat, so I added some Tabasco, but overall the chili is dynamite. Now, on to the not so pleasant: the place was teaming with flies. They were literally everywhere! They left the front doors open(for air circulation I’m assuming), but you have to account for the flies. My wife and I were shooing them off of the table, our food and ourselves throughout the entire meal. We both ordered the steak sandwich and I can tell you it was nothing special. In fact, more often than not I would take a bite that had a really fatty or grissly piece of meat in it. The flavor was okay, but I definitely wouldn’t order it again(or probably go back). Lastly, the service really left a lot to be desired. I had to get up twice to go to the wait station to ask for condiments. The server never came over to our table after dropping off the entrees(which lead to one of my two visits to the wait station). My wife’s iced tea was empty for most of the meal. I’m bummed because this place looked so great from the outside, but I will definitely not be returning.

I love this place. Often when heading out to eat in the summer I opt for a joint with a view. This place has zero view, but it doesn’t matter. It’s very casual and the menu is small, but everything is delicious. Things I’ve had which I liked: Tacos, both fish and chicken. Awesome. Grilled Reuben. Boom. House burger. Special sauce, forget about it. Falafel wrap. Rockin. We usually eat at the bar. They have a great beer selection on tap and make great drinks. Everyone is always friendly and on the ball. Water glasses refilled, everyone stepping in to help. Very refreshing after you see a lot of people at other restaurants hanging around, leaning, texting, being lazy. Can’t wait to go back!

Boy, I thought the beer was expensive. The scotch is pretty pricey as well. A reasonable pour of average scotch is $ 13.50. Still has a great beer selection though, a good crowd, and prompt service. But very pricey beers and scotch. Though their specialty cocktails are pretty cheap($ 8). So a mixed bag overall.

the wife and went to the square peg last night for the first time. very bizzy and small. we sat at the bar, bartender was very nice as was all the staff we started with the homemade nachos, they were very good. the wife of course had a salad and I had the fish tacos. fish was cooked perfect. could have used a little more seasoning. my only compliant is that both dishes had cilantro in them and I hate cilantro. they should listed that on the menu.

This is a great place to stop in for lunch! Great burgers and a good craft beer list. I believe my burger was a special, because I can’t find it on the menu now while writing this review, but it was a delicious Jalapeño Cheddar burger(pictured). Each burger comes with an abundance of fries, and they are really good too! Many place give out fries because they are mediocre and cheap, but the fries here are very enjoyable: perfect amount of salt and crisp. Prices are reasonable, generally $ 8 – 11 for most items. I would return to The Square Peg in a heartbeat.

We started with the nachos, they were delicious fresh homemade chips and salsa. A bit too much salsa could of used a few more chips. Shared the fish tacos which were excellent, a nice fresh piece of fish perfectly fried. I realized the prices went up a few dollars each item but great quality and excellent service. we will be back next time we are in town.

Great cozy neighborhood place; good food; great staff, fast service, very reasonable prices. Tried a bacon cheeseburger and the fish tacos… along with the Banana Cream pie and coffee for dessert! We will be back! This is a great find! Keep up the great work Square Peg.

This little place on the East Bay is perfect for grabbing a nice bite or hanging out with clients over drinks. The mostly female staff has a personality that matches the aesthetic — real. Lots of wood and plenty of natural light, made possible by the wall of glass by the entrance, separate diners from the rest of the quaint downtown Warren community. Although nothing too out of the ordinary, they offer a decent rotating draft selection, within the Sam-Blue Moon-Guinness-Bass wheelhouse. Vegetarian highlights on their very-much-too-the-point menu feature a housemade hummus plate — which is tasty, albeit it a bit pricey at $ 9 with warm pita and veg — as well as a slightly above par veggie burger($ 9.50). It is always a treat to have the option for rye bread, so I definitely advise taking them up on that tastebud-benefiting option. Despite the approximately $ 1.50 more per item than the prices should be, whenever I find myself in Warren, I feel like I’m on vacation somehow. And when you’re «traveling» it’s always worth it.

I was in the East Bay area to pickup a Craigslist purchase and I had made it so late in the day that I figured I might as well eat there instead of getting back to the NP area for a bite. This place was tucked right off of Main Street and has a really charming front area. There’s minimal seating outside, but once inside it really has a lot of character. It is very softly lit, everything is very dark-grained wood. It is really beautiful. I sat at the bar just for ease and I was served very quickly. They had a nice selection on tap and a few more on bottle. The bar tenders were all quite kind and they had a semi-open kitchen setup where you could see most of what the cooks were doing, which is always a good sign. The food came out, in what felt like, record time. I got the Street Tacos which were really magnificent. I would say they probably used too much of whatever the sauce was because it was a little too drippy. The chips were pretty generic corn tortilla chips, but the salsa was pretty outstanding. I don’t know if they purchase it from some other place, but it was really sweet while still maintaining a kick. What really sold me on this joint was the dessert. It’s apparently home-made by the owners mother. She lives nearby, from what I was told, and just drops by the desserts regularly. Unbelievably good carrot cake. Blew my mind. In addition, the waitstaff was incredibly kind and attentive. I even got chased down outside the store to get my leftover carrot cake back to me by one of the waiters. Really great place.
