New Hampshire Restaurant Week May 17th-24th, 2013 Seacoast (Hampton Beach)

index_r3_c1-1Come support some of our favored local businesses and enjoy restaurant week! Running through Friday May 24th, twelve restaurants are participating in the event throughout the Seacoast. The purpose of restaurant week is for each business to showcase a selection of their finest, most unique, or best selling dishes at a reasonable price. It is their way of thanking their faithful customers and hopefully gaining a few new regulars. For the most part, the menus are fixed and contain three courses. This is a great way to try something you may not normally order for a price that will not dent your wallet.

Vacationing for the week? Perfect, enjoy a day by the lakes or a morning hiking before you eat. With over 100 restaurants and five regions participating it will be easy to fill each day with tasty meals throughout New Hampshire. So go ahead and dine lavishly, guilt free and within your budget.

Visit their website for course details and prices. If you have any questions or concerns, please call the restaurant directly. Enjoy, foodies!

Blending historical fact with a sprinkling of well-crafted storytelling, A Meet and Suitable Person: Tavernkeeping in Old Hampton, New Hampshire, 1638-1783 takes readers on a back door tour through the taverns of Puritan Hampton, detailing the lives of the men and women who kept the town’s public houses of entertainment during the colonial era.
