Just came to say that I've been to Rubbin' Butts thrice this summer, and it's been meh every time. Ribs aren't meaty, skimpy on the brisket...

I'm not sure if I've been spoiled, but I'm not overly impressed. At least, not enough to be, like, "totes check out Rubbin' Butts" and stuff.

We were very pleasantly surprised by Gusto. The whole place seemed authentic, even though I've never been to Italy!

The staff was pleasant and knowledgable, prices were reasonable, and the food was excellent.

We were there in August and hope they are still doing well.

Do they have tables or is it strictly take out?

Although I love the name, I've never been there myself. Before getting my own smoker, my wife and I would go to the Yankee Smoke House in W. Ossipee for our BBQ fix. We still go their, just not as often.

Default Center Harbor Diner

I'm surprised nobody has mention the Center Harbor Diner. Just a short walk from the town docks. Great breakfast and nice people.

Red Hill Dari for their clam roll. Yum!

I was wearing one of their long sleeve tees in the Orlando Airport a few years back. (Big pig on the back with the "We will sell no swine before it's time" logo) Someone immediately came up and started to tell me about how much they loved and missed being in New Hampshire. They said they went to the Yankee Smokehouse all the time. GREAT food!!
