We did the first room of the library and it was super fun and really intricate. Be prepared to open up a lot of puzzles so bring a friend who knows how to do that!

Full of nooks and crannies, this very old building exudes Yankee thrift and durability. Set amid the town, and not walled off from the flow of life, the capitol building screams New Hampshire. Live free or die!

Our family always buys chocolates from Granite State Candy for special occasions and gifts. We send the milk chocolate malt balls to relatives in the west. Personal favorites are the dark chocolate dipped Oreos and milk chocolate peanut butter cups! Summer time brings AMAZING ice cream flavors and add-ins. Truly a treasure in downtown Concord.

We love coming here and sampling the beer, there are about 10 on tap? A great range of tastes to make everybody happy. There's a few rotating taps so there's always something new. They had 2 sours on our last visit. Really, really good beer. Family friendly place. They have outdoor seating and they serve pints! The owners are super nice and it's just a really cool place to hang out, have a pint and chill and be happy.

Loved this place. Great vibes, great and knowledgeable staff, and some amazing beers. Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon when there was live music and a good crowd. Everything was great.
