Owner Kristo Souris ("kids could never pronounce my name so I just went by Sour") MC's behind the bar and mixes balanced, scrumptious cocktails--last night I had the Peach Bourbon Paper Plane for which Kris charred the peaches for extra complexity and depth. Indeed! The Corn Agnolotti comprised a toothsome house made pasta filled with Vermont cheese nestled in a rich Sungold Tomato Brodo (little bursts of bright tomato offsetting the garlic-rich corn-studded broth). On another visit, the Zucchini fritters transcended their name by a magnitude of 10; crispy Salt Cod Croquettes were elevated by a pickled ramp tartar sauce, fennel radish salad, and caper berries. The "cheesecake" was more of a crustless pudding with intense roasted peaches and a crunchy strudel topping. Shout out to Tatum, a fashi-forward bartender who executes Kris's deliciously balanced craft cocktails with verve & finesse while Kris flits back and forth, shaking, stirring, and socializing. He's everything, everywhere, all at once! I asked to meet and compliment the chef. I didn't catch his name, obviously on purpose, since he shyly demurred credit and handed it to the team behind the swinging doors. You won't read about Kris or the cooks online, so just go eat and drink what they got. You will NOT be disappointed.

Saw their new spring menu on social media and I really wanted to try it! We decided to go in if…read morethere was no wait - if not we would go somewhere else... and we got lucky! Seated right away. Good enough atmosphere. It's not Bailiwicks, but good enough... Their bar area is super lively, I like it a lot. We both *don't* love the one and only, unisex bathroom that is always out of hand soap and not always super clean (according to Boyfriend who had to lift the seat.......). They need to keep an eye on that... Waitress was ok. A very loud talker. Food was amazing! I had both their "specials" - the fiddle heads appetizer and the Lamb chops... which were also served with fiddle heads, and a delicious risotto (I didn't realize the lamb was also served with fiddle heads, if I had, I would have tried a different appetizer - but that's my fault because I'm sure she must have mentioned it). Everything was amazing. Lamb was so tender and perfectly flavored. Boyfriend had the hanger steak and duck fat fries and loved it too. Says it's some of the best fries he's had! I'm not much of a dessert person but I like trying stuff at restaurants where I know it will be homemade. I had some whipped cream and butterscotch dessert and it was great - couldn't finish as I was full, but no regrets. We will be back! I love that their menu changes seasonally, it keeps things very interesting.

She had such amazing energy--friendly, welcoming, and genuinely happy to be there. She was absolutely fantastic and really helped set the tone for the entire visit. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a great atmosphere and plenty of character. Service throughout our meal was excellent, and everyone was friendly and attentive. As for the food, we tried the Brisket Sandwich and the Maple Buffalo Chicken Sandwich, and both were fantastic. The brisket was flavorful and satisfying, while the maple buffalo chicken had an awesome combination of sweet and spicy flavors. And if you're a beer lover, you'll definitely appreciate the selection here. They have a ton of beers on tap, with plenty of options to choose from. Great food, great service, awesome atmosphere, and an incredibly welcoming team. Definitely a place we'll be coming back to! Especially after the long hikes we have.

Fries are good and service is good!

Quaint and lovely old Inn located in Littleton NH. Our server was very friendly…read more The menu is a nice selection of foods. Ranging from chicken to steak to lobster. Parking is difficult although maybe there is more parking that I did not see since it was a rainy night. I will update this section when I go back. Service was slow This was just our server. She was busy leaning and doing other chores that we waited a long time to order our food it took her so long to get back to us when it was time for desert that we did not bother The other server on the other hand was very efficient and took fantastic care of his clients. They have a special that is 2 dinners and a bottle of wine for $40.00. The items that you can choose from are marked on the menu. It was a good selection. This special is from 4 to 6 pm you may want to make a reservation as they fill up fast We had Lobster an decided to upgrade to the lazy man Lobster. The Lobster was cooked to perfection. It was a good size portion I would guess between 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 lb solid meat. We did not see a wine we wanted from the list but they gave us a choice of either another beverage, salad or desert. My friend chose the salad which was a rather large salad. It was one of the best salads I have seen served. Try thief home made dressing. I opted for the desert which we took with us. I had the Turtle cheesecake. It was not too sweet. A nice size portion and worth going back for more. Even though our service was slow I highly recommend going here. The food is well worth the price. They offer items from $11.95 to $30.00 The owner was quite charming and you can tell that he cares about his clients. The guests that stayed at the Beal House Inn were very happy with their accommodations. We will be back Food. 5 star Service. 3 star. See notes above Atmosphere. 5 stars.

Fantastic Transformation!…read more What a wonderful surprise to learn that the Beal House Inn was under new ownership, better yet, that the menu has been completely revamped and re-priced to better reflect the area. The previous incarnation was nice but VERY expensice and not often living up to the price point. The new Beal House has a diverse locally inspired and sourced menu at some of the most reasonable prices north of Concord. Traditional American fare mixed with well trained culinary techniques in the kitchen result in a diverse range of north country comfort food. I wanted to order multiple things on the menu and had a hard time choosing, which is a very good sign of things to come. We enjoyed classically executed Escargot with a hint of Pernod, the snails were tender, juicy and not a hint of chewiness. I could have eaten another two or three orders of these, and at only $9, I will next time! Crab cakes were the only weakness, they had too much Panko mixed in so the texture was more like seafood stuffing, but the accompanying Old Bay Aioli almost made up for it. Served on baby spinach, this could be fantastic if they change the crab to panko ratio! Beef tenderloin was cooked perfectly, as was a "caveman" cut of Prime Rib, both were fork tender and served with caramelized root veggies and garnished with a cut out Maple leaf of beet and carrot. For the very very hungry, they offer a "lion' cut of prime rib that would feed 2 hungry skiers with leftovers for sure. Meat-a-pal-oza! Dessert was also a winner, simple and elegant, puff pastry with divinely light limoncello filling, copious raspberry coulis and fresh whipped cream, Ill upload a photo ! Best of all, the new owner offers a "Beal Deal" special that is a screaming bargain. You get 2 entrees AND a bottle of wine for $40 if you order between 4-6, every day! Cant wait to go back and try the Lobster mac and cheese during a snow storm They also have 7 rooms for full and tired diners who don't feel like driving home

There is no place in the Upper Valley that has seen more of a revitalization than downtown White…read moreRiver Junction. What used to be a sketchy area is now filled with boutique shops, bustling businesses of tech and industry, arts, culture, and restaurants. One such upscale craft cocktail bar is Wolf Tree. If you didn't know it, you might feel as if you'd stepped into a hipster cocktail lounge in Brooklyn as you walk into Wolf Tree. They offer a variety of playful and inventive drinks. My friend was able to get a virgin cocktail but I just wish they had more than one single cocktail on the menu with vodka. With my choices somewhat limited, I went with a drink called "Friday I'm In Love": vodka, citrus, strawberry, mint, and bubbles. It looked beautiful when it arrived to the table and was a palate pleaser with sour, sweet, and minty flavors. They have weekly specials, classic-type cocktails, and what they call "happy meals" - a beer and shot combination. Don't fear, though, they still have Budweiser, Bud Lite, Miller High Life, and other draft beers for those feeling more traditional Upper Valley. We also ordered one of their charcuterie boards that featured local selections of cheese and meats, olives, pickled vegetables, cured mustards, and a baguette. A great selection but like most of Wolf Tree, a little on the expensive side. Overall I enjoyed my first trip to Wolf Tree and I'm glad hip places like this exist in the Upper Valley.

On a crisp fall day, the deck heaters were turned on, making it decently comfortable to sit outside. We were on a time crunch for lunch and the food came out quite quick. I had the Bratwurst on a well toasted pretzel twist bun with a side of sauerkraut. The Falafel was also great as well with plenty of fresh vegetables stuffed inside the flatbread. The only disappointment was the Poutine. I think we were expecting cheese curds, but it was just topped with some shredded cheese.

They are doing a wonderful job, and I am so, so glad they didn't come and go like the other restaurants in that spot before it. You probably knew that from the other reviews, but I have another reason I am writing this. I came here with my husband one night months ago, and he got a cocktail that had cherry and bourbon as the main flavors. I stole most of it from him :D. It was so good that every time I get another cocktail somewhere else, even if it is good, I just wish it was the cherry bourbon one. So, if you're there and they still have it on the menu, I suggest you get it. And if the establishment is reading this, my vote is to keep that one around.

The good: the server & the chocolate cake…read more The bad: the wait. There were 4 of us. We were told it would be a half hour; not too bad. We got our little buzzer and we were told to stay within a half mile. We sat outside across the street on a bench. We watched numerous groups of 3+ go in and not come back out, which means they were seated. When, after 40 minutes, we were called in, none of those groups were at the bar. Kinda makes you wonder. We ordered cokes. $5 each and got refills, but when the bill came was shocked to be charged for every refill! We spent more on cups of Coke than the actual effing meal!!! Ordered the steak medium. It was rare. Oh well, was hungry and didn't want to wait any longer. But it was good. Buffalo chicken cheese curd fries were good, but chicken was dry. The cheesecake was not tasty at all. The burger was "mid," according to my son.
