I attended the Gosselin’s wedding on 12/31/24, and although the venue was beautiful as a guest I felt a little underwhelmed by the quality of the food as it was cold and not the q...
uality expected from Fratello’s. Furthermore, after the first hour of cocktail services the bar tenders seemed to have an attitude towards guests which continued throughout the night.
We recently attended a wedding here. Venue is nice but the plated food was cold for almost all guests. It is very disappointing for the bride to hear the complaints. But at least t...
his info can be shared with future brides. Avoid plated maybe buffet is better option as I have seen other complaints on the plated meals
We had our wedding here and the day and the food were absolutely beautiful. And many people complimented the food, we had the buffet option and the Mediterranean chicken was incred...
ible. However, leading up to the wedding the communication was all over the place and to get answers felt like pulling teeth sometimes, 3 different people in the office were in contact with us at different times and there were four emails. We would email one person and another would respond. It was just a headache, so be very specific with questions. Just did not feel professional at all until the wedding day itself which was absolutely beautiful. However an odd one was we were also not greeted in the back when we (bride and groom) arrived, they did have our little water and appetizer table set, but no one was there and even the bathroom we wouldn't have known it was in the office if my wife had not been in a wedding there previously. The communication was rough, food and atmosphere was wonderful.
Also just attended a wedding there last night and they had the plated option and the steak was so bland I doused it with salt and pepper and the mashed potatoes were like a 3.8/10, atmosphere was nice but food was not great, I would definitely say from our experience do the buffet you get more options and it was much more flavorful and everyone loved it. Also shout out to the blonde server Jen who really just makes everyone feel happy and we noticed at both weddings she was our favorite server
My wife and I got married in Goffstown, NH on 9/2/23 and we had our rehearsal dinner at Fratello’s the night before our wedding. The team at Fratello’s was great from start to fini...
sh. We wanted to be able to seat our guests at one large table instead of separate tables and Devon from Fratello’s was awesome in terms of helping us to make that happen. On the night of our rehearsal dinner, the bartender and servers were all fantastic and the food was excellent. All in all, we were really happy with our choice to host our rehearsal dinner at Fratello’s and would definitely recommend it to other couples who are considering it!

We looked at this venue for our reception as well but they were too expensive for that event. We did, however, have our rehearsal dinner here and everything was great. Simple linen...
s (colors of our choice) and decorations were included which was fantastic. We paid a little extra to have a personal bar set up, and we were served efficiently and graciously. The room looked great. Be aware that you must pay for a minimum of 25 plates so this wouldn't be the best option for you if you're having a smaller rehearsal dinner. I would have liked a bit more options when selecting from the menu, and it was a bit pricey but the food at Fratello's is historically very good and you get what you pay for.
We had our dress rehearsal dinner at Fratellos in a Manchester and it was absolutely delicious! Perfect size room for our event and people enjoyed the food. Very reasonable and nic...

Fratellos is our “date night” place, so it only made sense to have our wedding here. Not only was the staff amazing and attentive all night, but the food portions were huge and the...
food was hot. The room was exactly how I envisioned it. Loretta, the event planner was amazing every step of the way, making sure that I knew what was going on, what I needed to do, and giving us options if possible. Loretta had our best interests in mind the whole time. Not only was the food amazing, and the room beautiful, but it was much more reasonably priced than anywhere else that we looked. I couldn’t have dreamed of a more perfect night, and they made it all happen. I highly recommend them and Loretta-they won’t disappoint!
Fratellos is a beautiful building in the Millyard of manchester, so it has a romantic, rustic charm. Loretta is a wonderful coordinator who will make sure every detail is addressed...

e room is really nice. Have your wedding at the Currier Museum of Art 1 mile down the road and then save yourself big bucks by having the reception at Fratello's!
Loretta and team made every effort to make everything the way we had envisioned and it all ran smoothly on the big day! :)
I can not praise Loretta DeMarco and her team at Fratello's enough. From day one, Loretta went out of her way to accomodate my needs and my nerves... She is not only a pleasure to ...
work with, but a true professional whose coordination, set up and execution of our event was flawless. Our guests have raved about Fratello's-- the mood is so warm, the staff friendly and the food outstanding!! Loretta was an incredible comfort and an awesome resource, allowing me to simply enjoy the day, and Fratello's truly exceeded our highest expectations.
Fratello's has a beautiful function hall. It is in one of the historic mill buildings you see along the Merrimack River. The room did not need many decorations, but I was able to ...
dress it up a little with my personality. The food is amazing. I still have people commenting on how wonderful the food at the wedding was. Loretta, the wedding planner is very helpful and accomodating. She made me feel very comfortable and taken care of throughout the entire process.

wedding. Loretta, the coordinator, was super easy to work with. She was on-site for the entire evening and was catering to our needs every step of the way. I found the prices to be reasonable and really, for what we got, I felt it was a bargain. My only complaint would be that some of the guests felt that the waitstaff was removing drinks and food from the table too quickly.
Our reception at Fratello's went great! The staff was organized, very friendly and very fast. Our wedding was in the evening and the staff kept the food coming quickly for our hung...
ry guests. Everything was delicious from the cocktail hour to the end of dinner. They handled everything so well and I wasn't aware of a single issue throughout the whole night. They really made it their job to make sure we, as the Bride and Groom, were having a great time. I also had a chance to meet with the venue director a few times to go over details and time lines to make sure the day would go smoothly, and it did.
