Boston's North End!
It's not that far of a drive and something few consider, but Boston is definitely within reach for a great food adventure. I mean, cmon, it's one of the best cities in America and has a wonderfully diverse food scene. We will give you two good choices in the North End of Boston (a charming little italian neighborhood).

Makris Near the Track!
It's the closest seafood place from NHMS. So if you are staying at the track swing by. Makris offers good fresh seafood favorites but they are most known for their lobster.

If clicking on this doesnt make you salivate to the point it forces you to drive to the North End neighborhood of Boston.... then something is wrong with you!
The Common Man
Quite possibly MD's favorite place to eat during New Hampshire Motor Speedway race weekend. The old barn building right off the Manchester Street exit in Concord, NC is a great place to dine. Rustic New England charm warms you just as much as their legendary Lobster Corn Chowder. I also love their baked Haddock, which comes with a ritz cracker crust! The white chocolate is to die for!

Tinker's Seafood
If you are in Manchester and are looking for good traditional New England Seafood, this is your choice. From real good fried clams to fresh fried haddock, Chowdah to Lobstah, this family place is a MUST. They win local awards every year and have super-friendly service. It is also a fish market.

Red Arrow Diner
Voted to be one of the best diners in America, Red arrow lives up to it's billing. It's a unique and very small building hidden in downtown Manchester, NH. The place is open 24/7 and serves breakfast around the clock. Sit at the same table as some famous people too! Adam Sandler has his own burger there. Red Arrow is a favorite of Food Network star Guy Fieri. Everything on the menu is awesome. I love to start out with their chili. The Dinamoe burger rules. Oh and try a Red Arrow favorite... America Chop Suey. Oh and their deserts are to die for. The cream pies, to eclairs to homemade twinkies... you'll love 'em.

The Egg Shell Restaurant
THIS IS YOUR BREAKFAST PLACE!
Why? It's small, simple, close, hidden and good. The Man who brought the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series to NH, Bob Bahre, eats here all the time. We've enjoyed breakfast with Radio/TV personality Pat Patterson at the Egg Shell. He is a regular when in town. Hint: Ask for the high-octane syrup.

The Pines Seafood House
Want some good Chowda? This is your place. For those staying South of NHMS (Manchester etc) this place is within your reach. The Pines wins awards for their different chowders and offers a wide array of fresh seafood choices in a comfortable family setting. Since 1982 this joint has been family owned and operated.

Billy's Sports Bar
"Thursday they have a WICKED good meatloaf," says Sprint Cup Series crew member Erick MacPherson. A lot of us know Erick as "Moose" in the garage area. He's a heck of a guy and knows his food so we will listen to him. Plus, he's not a stick-figure... stick-figures aren't as trustworthy with food-picks. Looking at the menu at Billy's they have a wide assortment of typical pub-fare, sandwiches, various nachos, lamb kabobs, seafood...and yes, wicked good meatloaf!
