There really isn’t a bad meal here in New Hampshire. From city restaurants to smaller mom and pop shops, there’s something for every taste and every level of hunger. But a lot of people believe they need to rush to the larger towns and cities to enjoy some of the best. We disagree! In fact, the eateries found in these farmhouses are delicious and they’re totally worth the trip. Oh, and spoiler alert: some of these are actually not terribly rural!

Smuttynose Restaurant / Google The Smuttynose Brewery’s restaurant once went by the name “Hayseed,” but today things are slightly less confusing. The eatery is located within a historic home and the food coming out is absolutely great. Comfort foods like burgers and fries are just the beginning so make your way to the brewery to check it out.

Paul Helfinstein / Google This cozy spot has two different locations, but we love this one for its lovely new building. We also love the hearty meals served here. Go for the steak if you’re really hungry or opt for something like a cheesesteak for a quick bit. Either way, you’ll be coming back again.
