18 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Laconia

“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“

“Extremely friendly service, great food, and enjoyed sitting on the deck eating my meal. I will definitely be back!!!“

“Love the Winni Rum Shack! Great cocktails, great craft beer list and great food. Highly recommend the Winni Rum Shack. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Tavern 27 is such a cosy, inviting tapas spot the Lakes Region and the community is fortunate to be invited back inside following the pandemic and Ray and Leslie’s other life adventures. We recently held an intimate employee appreciation event there, and it could not have been a more perfect experience. The atmosphere was perfect, Leslie curated an excellent menu of from scratch bites, and some members of our team had never been there before but I suspect are already making plans for their next visit. You have to be super patient and not in a rush because Leslie prepares every dish made to order, and they’re also rebuilding staff so things will take time, but if you’re seeking a memorable evening out, and are looking for a rustic casual destination, please go visit them. Support local.“

“Best ice cream I’ve ever had. It is creamy. The doughnuts are tasty too!“

“We have tried nearly every restaurant in the area but this place is a hidden gem. As soon as we walked in the door, we were greeted with a warm welcome and the atmosphere felt awesome. It’s a big, old house that’s been converted into several different types of seating areas. Tons of outdoor seating, nice bar and a nice dining room. We were in the mood for pizza so we tried 2 different ones. We did the chicken bacon ranch and a plain cheese but with their homemade garlic butter sauce. We ordered them extra crispy. Well, I was VERY surprised that these were some of the best pizzas that we’ve ever had and I’m a pretty picky/hard pizza critic. Cooked perfectly, awesome crust, no flop, good amount of cheese and the garlic butter sauce is AMAZING! Great view of the lake. Service was excellent. Definitely will be back!“

“My husband loves the Buck-a-Shuck there. Tonight he had the duck and he said it was perfect. I had the mushroom risotto. I believe it was the best I've had. I also had the crispy brussels and they were magnificent. It is extremely friendly place to eat.“

“They took good care of a bunch of tired and exhausted musicians. Their coffee might be some of the best we have ever tasted.“

“Service and Food was great. Wings with Mango Haberno sauce was delicious. Grilled Chicken sandwich was also delicious with shredded lettuce, pickles, mango pineapple, habanero salsa (held the curry coconut) on a toasted bun. Alcohol beverages pricey but food prices very reasonable for boardwalk.“

“Just had breakfast at 48 Main and it was phenomenal!! Had the breakfast burrito crepe with sausage and it was delicious. Highly recommend this gem!“

“Great job being number 1!“

“So many bagel flavors, daily specials, and fast service! Especially helpful when I'm in a hurry to get to an early event! Highly recommend.“

“I am a transplant from Mass and have recently moved up here. Came to NuCar to get my car serviced and found this gem located while I wait. I never saw anything like this down in Mass. The service was warm, friendly and attentive. I was thoroughly amazed. The place is spotless. They have a counter and tables and chairs and a tv room. I give it five“

“Top notch beer!! Tried a variety and have yet to find one that I wouldn’t rate 5/5!“

“Ok, here goes, I love Burgers! And for me to say that this place has the best burger I have ever had at a restaurant, that is biggly good! I got the Biker Burger minus the onions and let me tell you, cooked perfect, the pulled pork on it was to die for! The service was great and friendly, knowledgeable with the questions I asked. The atmosphere is super cool, would love to see it on a busy day. The 1 thing that I did not like was sadly the stools to sit on, not very comfortable to sit in for more then 30 mins. Cannot wait to go back!! Great job! Scoring it a solid 9.4!“

“The tour is short and it's hit or miss whether you catch them on one of the three days that they're actually making ice-cream. I've been there twice and both times not. Got an ice cream sunday at the dairy bar and was given the wrong sunday. When I did get the correct sunday, it was delicious. They do make good ice cream.“

“we've been a handful of times. I get the haddock bites and a frappe they're pretty good. the fish was crisp with nice light frying and the no soggy over battered spots. the fries were pretty good too, a sizable helping comes with the dinners. Today though, we decided to just get ice cream. I wouldn't rave as much about that unfortunately. today I got what looked like the most sad ice cream in a waffle bowl after they got it wrong the first time they handed it out the window. I accepted that it wasn't gunna happen then way I ordered it and left. may come back, most likely not.“
