“The person working at White Mountain craft dispensary recommended this place to us, and we are so happy they did! We stopped by during our visit to the area, and had the absolute best time at this restaurant and Bar.. We sat at the bar, and there was a blonde woman working the guy who could not have been more helpful, friendly, and fun.
We stopped by this past Saturday, and both thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The elk was one of the best dinners we’ve both had in a long time, and the lobster roll was on point. So cool to see that they have their own lobster tank here and everything is made fresh to order. Shut up to the kitchen, they were crushing it!
Met some awesome and friendly locals, we will definitely be back next time We are in the area.“

“🌸 A Toast to Life, Love, and Literature—at Stella’s on the Square! 🌸 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Today, Stella’s on the Square wasn’t just a venue—it became a living, breathing storybook filled with laughter, tears, and love as we celebrated the extraordinary life of Cathy Cote (1967–2025). An aspiring author, a quiet storm of strength, and the kind of woman whose presence lingered long after she left the room. Her family turned the space into something magical. 💌 Pam read beautiful excerpts from Cathy’s unfinished book—words so heartfelt you could almost hear the pen still scribbling. 🛠️ Paul, her husband and emotional rock, was the embodiment of steady, supportive grace. 🎬 Crickett Cote, author and screenwriter, and chef extraordinare delivered moments of wit and warmth like a poetic stand-up act—honest, raw, and hilarious. 👧 And Darcy, Cathy’s youngest daughter, carried herself with quiet strength and glowing love, a reflection of her mother’s legacy wrapped in grace and soul. Cathy’s spirit filled every corner, whispering, “A life so beautifully lived deserves to be beautifully remembered.” And wow—was it ever. 🎶 Live music swayed with the floral decor. 🍴 The food was “hug-your-chef” good. 🍸 The cash bar? Let’s just say it kindly turned tears into toasts. But Stella’s—oh, Stella’s! The staff weren’t just servers, they were part of the experience. They moved through the room with compassion and charm, making it feel like your favorite aunt’s living room (if your aunt happened to have impeccable taste and event-hosting superpowers). Every detail—every flower, every flicker of candlelight, every note of the music—was a love letter to Cathy. She may not have finished her book, but today, we all lived in the final chapter together. A chapter written in hugs, memories, and a little Chardonnay. If you’re looking for a place to celebrate something—or someone—truly special, let Stella’s on the Square be the backdrop to your next unforgettable moment. ✨ Cathy would’ve adored this review. But more than that, she would’ve adored that so many showed up, laughed, remembered, and stayed a little longer than planned—just like she always did. #CelebrationOfLife #CathyCote #StoriesLiveOn #DarcyStrong #StellasOnTheSquareMagic #LiveLaughRemember“

“Sadly THIS IS NOT THE SAME BAY HAVEN YOU REMEMBER OR THAT PEOPLE RECOMMEND!!!! imagine my surprise when I opened the app to write this review and see that my review from five years ago was the first one on here that you can see below. I couldn't say enough about how good everything was. And had been years before!
My new experience: i had my son meet me there. He had never been so we could get a twin lobster, dinner and some steamers, and the sides, and I decided what the heck and or did us both a shrimp and scarlet plate to go. For a grand total of over three hundred dollars, which I would not mind paying if everything had been wonderful. But it was not. I'm including a picture of the shrimp and Scala plate that went to my home and my son's was exactly the same cause. Neither one of us opened until we got home. And this is what we found for I believe $38. You can look at the menu. It's around 38. The worst part is. I got home late at night. Looked at my dinner and couldn't believe it was all overcooked. It was horrible. I called the restaurant and spoke with a woman who claimed to be the manager who told me that I had waited too long to call. It was during the week or it was towards the next weekend. Because I work 8- 5 every day. And when I called, they told me that the owners were on vacation and the most she could do is give me credit for another time. I said, are you kidding? You think I want to come back and have this experience again. I was honest with her and told her even though they were really tiny. The twin lobster dinner was delicious. Our steamers were delicious. Our chowder was delicious. But the orders, the take home orders that were already packaged in the bag. That we didn't get to see until we got home. You judge for yourself. As I said, i'm including the pictures, I wouldn't waste the time gas money anything to go to this place again. I tried calling and get a hold of owners again. I left my phone number. Nobody called me back. They don't care!! It's that simple. So for two dishes that cost thirty something dollars. They would rather have people write these type of reviews and warn everybody not to eat there anymore. Because it's not what people think it is. Oh, and she did tell me that the pictures she said they're stock pictures. They're not the seafood platter that's what it used to look like ginormous. And if you look on there, the shrimp are huge. I tried telling her the shrimp are always, and she said, oh no, well, you haven't been here in more than a couple years because we've been, we switched to the small shrimp a long time ago... are you even kidding me? This is what you tell a patron of your restaurant?? So much for customer service or carrying what your patrons enjoy. They're just looking to take any anybody with money. That's stupid enough to leave it there, I guess. And I was one of them. It truly is sad. I'm going to also add a picture of my seafood that I get from my local pizza place in laconia, new hampshire. That is ridiculously visually a hundred times better than what you see here from Bay haven. And there's almost nothing in the container & the bay haven shrimp looks like it came out of a can. Or the tiny frozen ones from the the grocery store.
Old review:
Hidden Gem!! Excellent food, service, portions &pricing. Phenomenal perfectly cooked seafood. Ordered the seafood platter, twice baked potato, cup of lobster stew, steamers and husband had Fried Haddock dinner. Everything was excellent, it was our 1st time here and it's worth the drive and wait for a table because they are busy = All around excellent experience!! Haven't tried their non fried or other dishes next time will try their prime rib surf and turf. Our waitress Christina was excellent!“
