When you think of upscale and creative New Hampshire dining, you probably look to Portsmouth and Concord – certainly not Coos County. After all, it’s hard for upscale restaurants to survive in areas without a large population. Nonetheless, Whitefield is the unlikely home of one of the best restaurants in the Granite State. So get out of the city and take the gorgeous drive to north for a meal at this incredible spot – you won’t regret it.

The Inn At Whitefield is a Great North Woods gem, conveniently located right by the Weathervane theater for convenient pre- or post-show dining.

The food is great across the board - stick with drinks and a burger if you’re more in the pub mood, or order from the dining menu if you want more of a formal meal.
