I was visiting family in Keene, NH (So pretty! Get up there straight away!!) and it's their tradition to grab breakfast from this spot which they refer to as "Lisa's" cuz a woman named Lisa owns it. Let me lay it out you guys: Lisa and her deli team are breakfast sandwich wizards. Tbh, I'm fairly certain that I didn't know what a breakfast sandwich even meant before last weekend. Let's get to the magic. The sandwich is built on an un-toasted english muffin that is the ur-muffin of muffins: good structure but pliant and hearty but thinnish. These muffins taste like real food. Made of actual grains, by actual hands. Are they made in-house? By benevolent breakfast elves? Perhaps. The sausage patty is house-made, my aunt informed me, simply seasoned, and crazy delicious. I kid you not that I could eat many such patties, on their own, if that weren't unseemly and basically a health risk. Because yeah a sausage diet is not one that is recommended all too often, right? I suppose I should have inquired what sort of sausage it was but I think all you need to know is that it's a magic patty. The egg component of the sandwich is made in one of those nifty round-shaped thingies, so it lines up perfectly with the patty and muffin. Because not only is this sandwich delicious, it's also gorgeous and tidy: no dangly bits to worry about or crumbs as you bliss out in between bites, reading an actual paper newspaper in the garden or driving to that sweet kayak spot or lying in bed wondering if you ever really need to get up. (I tested these conditions for you. It's all good!) And of course, no breakfast sandwich can be replete without some sort of cheese. I believe the cheese is cooked into the egg? Mmmmm. Cheesy eggs. I think we've all experienced that moment, right? (Vegan friends, know that I am a huge fan of tofu veggie scrambles with Daiya and/or nutritional yeast; a plant-strong "cheesy eggs" FTW, for sure!) Finally there's a bit of green in the layering of this egg, patty and cheese beauty: thinly sliced cucumber, julienned green peppers, maybe a bit of arugula? Make no mistake it's FANCY and you totally deserve it. Of course, you can opt out of the greens, as my cousin did. She opted out of the sausage patty as well...so. You're on your own if you follow her dictum. Anyway what are you doing next weekend? Maybe you should mosey over to Beaver Street?

Gouger's Market is a local hole-in-the-wall, hidden gem that has been serving the neighborhood for…read moreat least 70 years. There is hardly any parking, as most people walk and the kids show up on bikes. They specialize in making grinders (that's New England's version of a sub sandwich). I was craving a real grinder, so stopped in to snag an Italian. The clerks are super friendly. The lady that made my grinder made sure I got exactly the topping that I wanted. The sandwich was phenomenal! The meat was cut fairly thick and the portions were generous. The toppings were fresh. The grinder was perfect and filling. My cousin picked up a maple soft serve cone that disappeared before I could get a photo. She loved it. The store sells essential groceries. Shelves are neat and tidy.

The Mill Village Store is one of those classic small-town gems that's easy to appreciate. It may…read morenot be a huge supermarket, but it's amazing how much they manage to fit inside. Whether you're grabbing a hot coffee and breakfast in the morning, picking up essentials like eggs, milk, cereal, Oreos, snacks, and candy, or treating yourself to their homemade baked goods and fresh donuts, they've got a little bit of everything. They also carry ice cream, ice, beer, cigarettes, and plenty of other everyday necessities. What I really like is that they stock enough of the basics that you usually don't have to make a trip into town for something simple. It's incredibly convenient and exactly the kind of place every small community is lucky to have. The location is the icing on the cake. Nestled in the village of Stoddard and just a stone's throw from a gorgeous lake, it's the perfect place to stop whether you're a local or just passing through. Friendly, convenient, and full of small-town charm, The Mill Village Store is absolutely worth a visit!

We got a chocolate chip and then the toffee one which was mmmmmm good. Plenty of parking, really friendly staff. Oh we also got some blueberry bread that was yummmmy! Been coming here for years off and on, definitely recommended!

My cousin and I stopped to pick up lunch at this little Country Store in Sullivan, New Hampshire…read more The store recently reopened with new owners after falling into disrepair. The new owners have cleaned and reorganized the store while maintaining the original country charm. There is patio seating outside (no room for seating inside). The store carries a nice variety of local produce, meat, cheese, syrup and other goods along with necessitates. Prices are on the high side, as you may expect from a specialty store in a resort area. The new owners are super friendly and helpful. First, we selected two of their house made apple cider donuts with sugar. The donuts were divine, soft cake with lots of cinnamon, sugar and apple flavor. I would stop by every day for those donuts if I lived here. We ordered the soup of the day, homemade French Onion The soup was hot with lots of melted cheese and tasty croutons. The soup was a tad too sweet, but good otherwise. My cousin ordered the egg salads sandwich, which is enormous and delicious. The sandwich is served on a long piece of French bread ladened with egg salad. Highly recommend the egg salad. I had the Chopped Italian Grinder, which also came out on a long piece of French Bread. There was a lot of bread for the amount of meat/cheese on the sandwich. The grinder was ok. There is a small but adequate parking lot. Overall, we loved the donuts and egg salad. I'd definitely return to try other things on the menu.

It's 2025, debit cards are prevalent there shouldn't be a surcharge, it's ludicrous. Although they do have a drive up window which is convenient, their timing isn't always great and they ask you to drive around and do laps until it's ready. There are some strange things. If you order a cheeseburger grinder it's made with meatballs. If you order a cheeseburger it's actually a cheeseburger. Also it is completely inconsistent. Never order there on a Sunday, it's quite obviously their b team and the quality is never good. Unfortunately no consistency, and now with higher prices leading to less value It's just not a choice in this area that I would make.

Watching this process was prob the most painful 20 minutes of my life. The counter person who took my order/made my coffee took about 3 minutes on each step. Ice in the cup - 3 minutes. Coffee grounds in the machine - 3 minutes. Milk in the cup - 3 minutes. Conversation with a co-worker about filling the coffee machine later - 5 minutes (in the middle of my order). There were hamburgers and fries ordered after my coffee that came out first. The final straw was watching them add 6 coffees worth of chocolate syrup to finish it off (they had already added enough for one drink 12 minutes earlier). It looked so bad I walked away before they could spend another 3 minutes finding/putting a lid on. Unfortunately I paid first, so I ate the $6 and walked away, incredibly disappointed. They may have been a newer employee, but it was clear no one even gave them a quick course in how to put coffee, milk, and chocolate syrup in a cup...
