Best Historic Restaurants in Rye

Our servers were fabulous! And the bartenders were fun and great to chat with-we love good intellect! The food is fresh, and the pizzas are hot. The crust is thin and tasty.

My wife and I went to celebrate our post anniversary glow in Portsmouth, and we ate at the Puddle Dock for the first time. We will be back! The food was outstanding (with special help in being guided to great options by our server). The service was outstanding, friendly, and helpful in every possible way. My wife was even complimented on her fleece by one of the staff. The menu choices are quite adventuresome for New Hampshire ... and they were all carried off very well. I would love to try the rest of the menu on other occasions. The wine list is decent for all but those who are used to only the best wines. Although the restaurant is fairly new (just open two or three years), the inside ambiance gives you a sense of old New England of the sort that is good to enjoy ... rather than off putting. I think it's worth a trip from the Boston area to eat at the Puddle Dock. Don't miss it ... or the bread pudding!

Took my 12 & 14yr old sons for their 1st visit. Our server, Ana, was fantastic. All the food was delicious. We will be back. Thank you for a great evening.
