Words from Our Guests

Karen Chadwick-Mello

This restaurant started out as a pretty popular place back in the 80’s and 90’s, but fast forward to a couple of years ago it sadly was run down and closed until December 2025 when it reopened! We just decided to give it a try! The decor was clean and fresh with a stylish ski vibe! Big square bar to welcome both visitors and locals! Our waiter was a rockstar and covered the whole restaurant although to be fair it’s a Tuesday- very busy tonight so still a rock star! The food was amazing and for sure this will be one of our new North Conway favorites! To be honest the Scarecrow was not my favorites years ago, but it is now!

Scarcrow Pub has reopened in the same spot. The inside is totally new, and beautiful in and underrated rustic way. Server s were local and very friendly. The bar was larger and beautiful, and very comfortable and a very friendly vibe. Food was delicious. French Onion soup was great. Steak fries were perfect! But just called fries. The dude next to me had a perfectlt cooked medium rare burger. Good iPAs on draft and in cans.

I hadn’t been to Scarecrow since I was a kid and the new owners have outdone themselves! The renovations are beautiful and the food was delicious. Our waitress was also incredibly kind. Don’t skip this on your next trip!

The reopening (rebranding?) of The Scarecrow Tavern has been highly anticipated for people who used to frequent its first incarnation as The Scarecrow Pub and Grill.
The remodeling is beautiful and everything is clean and well organized. The staff are friendly, we recommend Jimmy, and very much there to make your experience a pleasurable one.
The food and drinks were top shelf, and we will be back!!

5 stars for The Scarecrow Tavern. I’ve had both the prime rib and the fish & chips and both were excellent; the chips were A+. The place has been newly renovated, the service is great, and it has that genuine local vibe that’s getting harder to find. It’s a little off the beaten path over in Intervale, but absolutely worth checking out if you’re looking for somewhere new in the Valley.

Liam Greene

I absolutely love the redesigned Scarecrow Tavern! The service was exactly what you would want from a local tavern in the Valley — friendly and welcoming and totally on the ball from beginning to end of my meal. The inside is beautiful, totally redesigned with a cozy feel that makes the dining area comfortable and warm. While the bar area is equipped with new huge TVs to make it a great place to watch a game. The menu has been totally redesigned and delicious— my favorite app was the Philly Cheese egg rolls and the brisket is to die for! Can’t wait to come back!

We ended up at Scarecrow for my birthday! I hadn’t been here when it was previously open so I can’t compare, but my husband had as a child. While the poutine wasn’t the same to him, it was unique in a good way. The pretzel was warm, soft, and salty! The chili was spicy for me but it was up my husband’s alley. The best parts were the chicken tenders and the grilled cheese with short rib! We will visit again in the future (we do not live close by) and keep trying the menu! Despite never being there before, I shared in my husband’s joy and nostalgia which made for a great time. They had a good variety for different dietary needs given their menu isn’t very large. If you are in the area and want to relive the memories or just eat somewhere different, I would recommend it!

Andrea Ludlam

This is not your mom’s Scarecrow from back in the day.
Kudos to the owners, staff and kitchen for rebooting this restaurant!
I loved the atmosphere and bar area where we ate. The food was delicious from pretzel app, to short rib chili, to the fish and chips. The family loved it all.
The waitstaff was friendly and attentive.
I’ll definitely be back and excited that another great place north of down town NoCo has opened up.
To be expected with any new place there are a few bugs to be worked out but all in all I’d give it an 8 out of 10!
Well done!!
