Sam and Rosie's last day

Greene's Basin Girl · 10-22-2011, 05:17 PM

I love Sam & Rosie's also. I hope they find another place close by. They will be missed.

RLW · 10-22-2011, 06:52 PM

I'm sorry, but have never heard of them. Where were they located and if they do relocate please post the new location.

Noooooo! What would a trip to the lake be like without going by boat to Sam and Rosie's for breakfast

RLW - they were located in Center Harbor just up the hill from the public beach and the Mount's winter dock on Route 25.

Most people will always remember it as "Sam & Rosie's" but in actuality the sign was changed and it is/was called just "Rosie's" for quite some time.

NHskier · 10-23-2011, 06:15 PM

We have had some great lunches there, including their excellent lobster rolls. I sure hope they can locate close to the docks area!

Can't understand why they would want to move?? Wouldn't the location they are currently at be considered pretty darn good??

Good luck to them! I always enjoyed stopping there by boat!

I really don't know, but since this is the internet I'll speculate. I'm thinking rent went up or the landlord wanted the space for another business. Either way, I hope they find a place nearby, I love their Lobster Rolls.

Local word has it that the "Mug" which is currently located up by Dunkin Donuts, is going to be moving into the soon to be vacated "Rosie's" location.
I am of the understanding that Rosie's location is going to require a fair amount of upgrading in order to bring it up to current code requirements.
I also just heard the other day that the Mug was unable to break their current lease, so I don't know how that might effect their relocating.
I also don't know for a Fact how much of anything I have heard or been told is true, as we all know how rumors can fly.

Oh, and I also heard that "Rosie's" was "possibly" going to be moving into the old Broken Antler location near the lights in Meredith.

That's it. I am pretty much out of gossip.

I believe there was a divorce.

That will do it!!!

LIforrelaxin · 10-24-2011, 09:36 AM

I will stay out of the divorce speculation... I will discuss what I know however...

I have been a faithful customer of Sam and Rosie's or Rosie's for several years now... They have always run a great business and for the money I don't think you could ask for better food. What I do know is that they are being forced out of the location. Be it for higher rent or what ever I don't know... However they hadn't planned on closing, but they can't stay in that location for whatever reason.

I also know that there is a hope that they will re-open. They are looking for a location where they will have a better chance at foot traffic, and still be accessible by boat....Meredith is the prime hope.

Happy Gourmand · 10-25-2011, 07:28 AM

This place will be missed...it was one of my very favorite breakfast places to go by boat. I wish them all the luck in the world in finding a new location.

Redwing · 10-25-2011, 01:43 PM

I do hope that S&R (R) will find a new location that suits them, and enables all of us to continue enjoying their fine culinary delights, in particular their lobster rolls, which are by far the best I have ever tasted.

donnamatrix · 10-27-2011, 01:07 PM

I agree that Rosie's had the BEST lobster rolls in the world, and also, the homemade soups were terrific. I was terribly disappointed to see a sign in the window of the Antler in Meredith (corner of Plymouth St) announcing that an antique store will soon be residing in that spot. Bummer. I was hoping that Rosie's Cafe would be moving into the space, it's a perfect spot: lots of foot traffic, right near the docks. If anyone learns where Rosie is going to end up, please let everyone know.

I would think that would be a tough corner had the moved there with what would be three good diner type places in close proximity. Hopefully they will find their new home!
