In a place like New Hampshire it’s never a surprise to come across the most lovely little mom and pop shop. Whether you’re in a small town or a place like Portsmouth, there’s a ton of local flavor to be enjoyed. And we mean that literally! There are great locally-owned restaurants in every corner of the state. We love these spots, but lately we’ve been enjoying places like this general store in Newfields. It’s got just about everything you need, including some of the best sandwiches and treats you’ve ever had!
Located right on Main Street in Newfields you'll find Newfields Country Store. A cornerstone of the community since 1896, this is one of the best places to grab a bite in all of New Hampshire.
Each day brings another special sandwich and they change all the time. We recently loved seeing this one, featuring Boar’s Head turkey pastrami or corned beef, melted gouda, honey mustard, arugula, and coleslaw on a ciabatta roll.
It would be impossible to list each and every one of our favorites here, but let's take a look at just one more special. This one featured grape chicken salad with fresh herbs, cheddar cheese and arugula on anadama. Perfection!
Of course, lunch can't really be enjoyed unless it's finished with a sugary treat and that's the other reason we think you'll love what many people consider the best general store in New Hampshire.
From cookies to cupcakes to pies and cookies, you can't possibly leave here without dessert. Especially when you consider the fact that they're also cooking up inventive things like this Almond Joy brownie. It comes with toasted coconut buttercream and it's even gluten free!
You can plan a stop if you're in the area, but we think this is worth a dedicated trip to Rockingham County!
Newfields Country Store is open Monday through Friday 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. You can learn more about them (and see plenty more photos of sandwiches you won’t want to miss!) by following them on Facebook. They can be reached on 603-773-5656.
