Restaurant Week: Portsmouth & the Seacoast

Fall foliage is in full swing, especially alongside the scenic New Hampshire seacoast. As a quintessential part of autumn in New England, we encourage you to plan your trip to peep the leafs changing while making a few stops at some of the Granite State's finest dining establishments for restaurant week! From November 2nd through the 11th, more than 40 restaurants and breweries from Portsmouth, Dover, Hampton, New Castle, Rye and Exeter, New Hampshire, as well as Kittery, Maine are participating, creating special prix fixe menus highlighting the flavors of the season.

Restaurant Week three-course, prix-fixe menus will be offered at $16.95 for lunch and $29.95 for dinner per person. Keep in mind, this is the Seacoast’s most popular culinary event of the season, so space will fill up quickly. We recommend making your date night plans as soon as you can!
