The Brick Store - Bath, NH

A true general store rather than a restaurant, The Brick Store carries soaps, weathervanes, cookbooks and candies, as well as Live Free or Die t-shirts (the state motto).

Still, it is possible to put together a dandy impromptu repast from its wide inventory of cheeses, Vermont crackers, and smoked meats, then commandeer one of the comfortable chairs on the front porch and dine in sight of Route 302.

"Now in its third century, The Brick Store has a wide range of general merchandise; but we think of it as an essential snack stop on the way to or from the White Mountains."
