Why would you say this? I knew him, and he was a good kid who struggled with mental health issues that were not his fault. His parents were loving and supportive and spent so much time trying to help him. This was a sad situation, and a family lost their son.

Pizza here kind of sucks compared to italian pizza (ours is mostly Greek style) so don't get your boyfriend's hopes up, haha. Other than that, seeing a lot of good reccos in this thread already.

Liars Bench and Earth eagle are definitely breweries to check out in portsmout. Earth eagle has some good (interesting food, even more interesting beer). But there's a lot of good food in portsmouth outside of the breweries as well.

Sounds like you'd also be into Book & Bar (portsmouth).

In Dover, Garrison City Brewing is def worth checking out. Empty Pint is not.

If you go north, it's def worth stopping in Concord at Feathered Friend Brewing - open every day.

Portsmouth breweries I can think of:

Cisco (formerly redhook) At Pease (big!)

Downtown:
Portsmouth Brewery (original brewpub, fist in state and one of earliest generally)
Earth Eagle (smaller but has some food. love it.)

Not far from downtown down Islington ST:

(I can't remember which have food options others likely to chime in.)
Liars Bench
Great Rhythm
Loaded Question

I'm sure I am missing some but that is an easy day tour.

If you skip Cisco you can walk em all in an epic trip (2 miles) starting at Loaded Question and heading into downtown. You should have a place to crash downtown cuz gonna get sloppy. I made a map that included a couple of pubs too. Lemme know if interested.

For Italian in Downtown Portsmouth:

Ristorante Massimo - very fancy! you will need reservation well in advance.

Cafe Mediterraneo - Classic nice Italian restaurant - reservation probably good also as weekends are hard in general for walk in for any restaurant downtown.

Stonehouse pond in Barrington is a very easy walk.

Tons of breweries in the area. Concord and Manchester have plenty, so do Dover and Portsmouth.

I recommend Stoneface in Newington (between Dover and Portsmouth) if you have to pick just one.

Barrington / Northwood have "antique alley" (just google it).

Patty B's is the best Italian in the seacoast, imo.

For good Pizza I recommend La Festa in Dover Northwood Brewery in Northwood.

Also recommend checking out Over The Moon Farmstead in Pittsfield while you're in the Barrington area.

Dover / Portsmouth / Durham are great areas for your age. I lived in Dover in my 20s. Check out Portland, ME too.

They're pricy areas to live, though.

Edit: P.S. If anyone on this sub gets political or rude just pretend you didn't see it. We've got some real jackasses that like to comment on every "moving to NH" post.

Reply to comment by AnythingToAvoidWork in Can anyone recommend inexpensive contractor for drywall and carpentry? by codinggurl123

Yep, I've done some. A combination of helping out my Dad on an addition, then working off punishment for someone, and then as a teenage job. Not level enough on that seem-get back to work :(.

but, if the OP wants cheap drywall done, it is self intuitive enough for the random person to knock out OKish
