Default Hart’s buffet

Can you post the Akwa Bar menu?
Also, just curious, does Akwa stand for something?

Yes “water”. The community now know as Meredith Bay was originally Akwa Vista. The owners of Akwa Bar are the former owners of the community and they hire Harts to prepare the food at the bar/restaurant in Akwa Marina.

Akwa Vista was the original name chosen by the developer trying to appeal to second home buyers, mostly from Massachusetts.

Will naming it Akwa Vista help to sell it? How does Akwa Vista sound? It sounds like the water, or something ...... hell's bells ..... lets go with Akwa Vista ..... it will sell!

Renamed to Meredith Bay, which is actually located in Laconia, and is not in Meredith. So, how come it wasn't renamed Laconia Bay?

It sounds a lot like "Aqua Vue," a former small cabin colony near Owl's Nest / Wise Owl on rte. 11.

Default Akwa Menu Day

Had a great afternoon playing for a room full Hart's Patrons. The Akwa Menu was great as was the audience. Hope to return soon!

These two photos must be from the 1950's ...... and the sign says breakfast ...... with a real unpaved parking lot ...... those were the days!

Progress is here in 2019 ....... like, what progress? I totally miss the 10-cent payphone booths with the rotary dial ..... plus the turkey was better, too.

The reason the turkey was better back then is because they were on the property. I used to love driving by and seeing them. How much fresher could they be?

It's been a long time since there was an actual turkey farm there.

Should they change their name to reflect reality?

"Hart's Turkey Town" just doesn't cut it.
