“We hosted my daughter’s bridal shower at Gilmanton Winery today, and it truly could not have been more perfect. The setting is absolutely beautiful — classic New Hampshire charm with peaceful vineyard views that made the day feel extra special. It was the perfect backdrop to celebrate such an important milestone for our family. The staff was excellent. They were warm, attentive, and made everything run seamlessly, which allowed us to relax and simply enjoy the moment with our family and friends. A heartfelt thank you to Rick and Candi for your hospitality and care. You helped make my daughter’s bridal shower a day we will always remember. We’re so grateful. Melissa and Corey”

“Hello Hungry Guy in a Wheelchair members and today’s review Trillium Farm to Table in Laconia, NH: If you’re rolling through Laconia and looking for a spot that delivers both on flavor and accessibility, Trillium Farm to Table on Canal Street is a serious win. Here’s my take on it from the lens of hungry guy in a wheelchair. Starting off with the parking and accessibly and right off the bat, Trillium scores high with plenty of public parking right across the street. No awkward hunt for a spot, and there are clearly marked accessible spaces close by. The entrance is easy to navigate—no steps, tight corners, or sketchy ramps—just a smooth glide right into the restaurant. Inside, Trillium has a well-designed layout with enough space to comfortably move between tables. No bumper-car action required (bummer for me cause I really enjoy that part 😂) They’ve clearly thought about flow, and it shows. Whether you’re using a manual or power chair, you won’t feel boxed in. Even the service here is great Even the service here is great. The staff is not only friendly but genuinely knowledgeable about the menu. Ask where your veggies came from, or how the fish is prepared—they’ll tell you and not miss a beat. That kind of attentiveness adds to the experience.. Farm-to-table is the name of the game here when it comes to food quality, and it shows. Everything on the plate is fresh and cooked with intent. You can taste that it came from local farms—not a freezer. ( you love too see it ) Whether it’s roasted vegetables, seared meats, or even their bread, the flavor is dialed in and well-balanced. Nothing feels generic or mass-produced like I ordered the Chicken Panini: now, This isn’t your average pressed sandwich. The Chicken Panini is packed with juicy, tender chicken that tastes like it was grilled within minutes of it hitting your plate—none of that dried-out stuff you find at chain spots. Add in some melted cheese, fresh greens, and a flavorful aioli or house-made sauce, and you’ve got a crispy, warm, flavor-packed bite in every mouthful. The bread has that perfect crunch from the grill without being too hard to bite through. Solid choice for lunch or a light dinner. Comfort food, but elevated. My friend Anna Costa-Turner ordered the Strawberry Basil Grilled Cheese This one’s a curveball—but it works. The sweet-tart strawberries and the aromatic basil create a surprisingly perfect contrast to the gooey, melted cheese. All of it’s pressed between buttery grilled bread, making it crispy on the outside and melty-sweet-savory on the inside. It’s a bold combo that absolutely lands, especially if you’re in the mood for something outside the usual. My mom ordered Beet Falafel Burger Now here’s where things get interesting. If you’re plant-based or just curious, the Beet Falafel Burger is surprisingly hearty. The patty is made from beets and chickpeas, giving it a bold color and earthy sweetness that pairs well with whatever fresh toppings they’re rotating in—think greens, pickled veggies, maybe a tangy yogurt sauce. It’s not trying to taste like meat—and that’s a good thing. It’s flavorful in its own right. Bonus points for being satisfying without feeling heavy. For dessert me and my friend got the Oreo Ball. Now, if you’re a chocolate lover like us, the Oreo Ball is a straight-up knockout. It’s rich, dense, and indulgent without being too heavy. You get that signature Oreo flavor—deep cocoa with a touch of creaminess—wrapped in what tastes like a chocolate shell, maybe with a drizzle or dusting on top for texture. The inside? A velvety mix of crushed Oreos and cream cheese that melts in your mouth. Think truffle meets cookie dough. It’s a small dessert, but it punches way above its weight in satisfaction.. my mom got the Magic Bar… The Magic Bar lives up to its name. It’s layered with chocolate chips, coconut flakes, graham cracker crust, and (I’m guessing) sweetened condensed milk that binds it all into one chewy, gooey, decadent square. The flavors and textures hit all the right notes: crunchy, chewy, sweet, nutty (if it has nuts—it ofte”

“A gem of a place. Shhh…keep it a secret. This place brews and serves an outstanding selection of beer! Quaint, authentic and rustic, this ale house is a New Hampshire treasure. It’s a wonderful place to swing through and check out.”

“Food is always amazing when I go! This time I had my almost one year old and I got a pizza and some other items and a gentle man gladly helped carry the things out to my car for me! Thank you to whom ever you are! And go get some yummy lunch or bakery goods folks.”

“Hands down, the best Mexican food in New Hampshire, possibly beyond. The street tacos (corn tortilla) and chimichangas are our go tos, and the margaritas are phenomenal. Waitstaff will make you feel like you’re family, and know their stuff, having helped me select food and drink options several times. If you’re in the area and in the mood for Mexican, definitely pay them a visit!”

“My wife has been telling me we have to go when we are up this way Well we finally did OUTSTANDING food was Excellent and the staff was great Can’t recommend enough. This place is great. A must got to”

“We sat on the outside deck off the dining room (there's also outdoor seating off the barn). All is casual, with no real dress code (we'd called in advance and they said casual, flip flops friendly). It took forever to get our food, they said there was a mix-up with our order tickets or something to that effect. It didn't matter to us as it was a beautiful warm night and the mountain views from the deck are incredible. The food was good, and as I said, the atmosphere/views are excellent. And we were treated to a hot air balloon ride as the pic and vid I've attached show! Definitely recommend. 👍😊”

“Incredible food, warm and inviting atmosphere with extremely friendly staff. So glad I made the trip. Will be sure to stop back in here. Their meats, cheeses, and everything else is top notch. I’ve tried in-house beef jerky from many many shops and their maple jerky just might be my all time favorite.”

“The food was delicious and our server was fantastic! We will definitely be back”

“Custom ice cream cake was absolutely phenomenal. Cookie dough ice cream, chocolate cake, cookies and cream frosting and cookie dough topping. 🤤 every time we go here for ice cream we get something different and everytime it’s absolutely perfect.”

“This is our favorite spot in town! From the amazing dining staff to the great cooks in the kitchen, you can feel and taste how much they care about your meal and experience here! You’re always greeted with a smile at the door and they have some of tastiest food! If you haven’t tried this gem I suggest you check it out! Special shoutout to both Ethan and Oliver for the delicious menu and great specials each week and the amazing staff that always makes us feel like we’re part of the family!”

What was a staple for Sunday breakfast will now be reconsidered”
