Bring your own blanket!

As the days and nights become cooler, Portsmouth and Seacoast restaurants appreciate and need the love and support of the community now more than ever.  

Restaurants are vital to our vibrant community.  They have welcomed you for small celebrations and life events, for brunch, shopping day lunch, or just for Wednesday night dinner.  They’ve re-imagined their dining space to outdoor magic with lights, umbrellas, and creativity.   Now is your opportunity to blanket your favorite restaurants with support this Fall.

Join us for warm soups, comfort food, hot toddies, and outdoor camaraderie in support of your local restaurants.

We look forward to seeing you soon!
