We all have our favorite bars, but you have to admit that after a while a lot of them tend to blend together – you have your dive bars, your hipster bars, your Irish bars….you get the picture. If you’re looking for a real change of pace, there’s one incredibly unique place in Concord that’s truly like no other bar in the Granite State – or maybe anywhere.

Area 23 looks almost creepy on the outside – but it’s a very friendly spot (though it’s certainly quite a quirky one).

There are all sorts of great live shows here, if you want to catch some music. There are also frequent trivia nights and comedy open mics.

Miss playing darts in bars? You can get your fix here! In addition to 5 dartboards, they have a pool table, and old-school jukebox, and plenty of room to play things like board games if you’d like to bring some along.

The beer list is absolutely amazing, with a constantly rotating list of beers on tap, as well as a huge selection of bottles and cans.

There’s a quirky menu of snacks, ranging from a bowl of bacon (yes, you read that right!) to some tasty and satisfying sandwiches. All in all, the bar delivers a ridiculously fun experience.
