We are going to be in Tilton for the weekend and are looking for a nice place for Valentine's day. Something with good food and a nice atmosphere. We've been coming up for over 25 years during the summer and stay in Moultonborough at DeepWood lodges. We've been to Canoe, the Woodshed, Kevin's and most of them in that area, but since we are going to be in Tilton, we were looking for a nice place in that area. I've read through the posts and looked saw the Elacoya Barn and Grille and it looks promising. Can anyone recommend something similar to Canoe and the Woodshed in the Tilton/Laconia or Gilford area? Thanks!

I would highly recommend the "Lyons Den" in Gilford right at the town docks. Fantastic food, excellent service, beautiful atmosphere.

The Ellacoya Barn and Grill would be great choice as well!

Have fun!

Dan

Thanks Dan. The Lyon's Den looks good too!

The decision is getting tougher!

Lyon's Den is great. And make sure you check out The William Tell just down the road in West Alton. Would be my two favorites.

Sounds yummy right about now!

Enjoy...

Have you dined yet at The William Tell?

One of my favorites; different than the norm.

The Lyons Den would be my pick. I would highly recommend it as a Valentine treat. I have been to the others mentioned and they are good but the Lyons Den is special.

We have always had very good food and service at the Ellacoya B&G as well as at the Lyons Den.
A friend of ours raves about the William Tell, our own experience was a disappointment as to both the food and service. Of course one can hit an off night at most any restaurant.

The Lyon's Den is a great choice as is the Ellacoya Barn and Grille where they are having a valentine's day special. If I remember it correctly it was a five course meal for two for $60
