Last month, downtown Peterborough New Hampshire’s Post & Beam Brewery joined the microbrewery landscape opening in the historic G.A.R. Hall (Grand Army of the Republic). The mostly brick building is perched at the top of a hill on downtown’s Grove Street with cannons and a pyramid stack of cannon balls out front and an outdoor patio overlooking the Nubanusit River. …
What’s new in Peterborough – June 2017
Oftentimes our repeat guests arrive at the B&B and the first question they ask is “So…what’s new in town?” During this past year, there actually has been quite a bit that’s “new”. Much of it is food related, so we thought this would be a good time to give everyone an update. Right in downtown there have been two new …
Travel Planning: Places to See, Things to do!
Harrisville, Hancock, and Madame Sherri’s Forest Every week (or so) I receive an e-mail from Yankee Magazine called “Your New England Minute” that features places to explore in New England, recipes, and home and garden ideas. Recently, I clicked on their story about “Tubing in NH” (at Pat’s Peak in Henniker, NH) and found myself happily lost in the Explore New …
Peterborough and a Chocolate Factory
“All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.“ – Charles M. Schulz, creator of the comic strip Peanuts As we progress through the holiday season, it is hard for me not to think about sweets… especially, chocolate!

Around Town Part I: Harlow’s Pub
We thought it was time to start an in-depth look at the shops and restaurants that help make Peterborough such a great destination (and place to live).

The Innkeepers are TV Stars

Little River Bed & Breakfast from Good Eats NH on …
Pickity Place… A Hidden Gem!
Although we have heard about it for years, we had never had the opportunity to enjoy the herbal luncheon at Pickity Place. That is… until just recently when Paula went with a friend and her two young teen daughters. (There’s a really big tree right in front of the cottage… it is very interesting, but makes it a little difficult …
What’s new is “Old” in dining downtown
Centrally located in downtown Peterborough, The Old Theater Restaurant and Tavern, with its theater marquee out front, is serving up traditional American and New England fare and daily specials based on what is available seasonally and locally. We like to describe it as comfort food with a twist like their fish and chips where the fish is deliciously baked, mac …
