New Woodshed

New Hampshire


Rising from the ashes of the Woodshed, a locals' haunt that burned down in 2013, the New Woodshed is oh-so-ready for its close-up. Anchored by a central fireplace and adorned with stuffed mounts and wagon wheels, the dining room resembles an old-school hunt club. Steak and seafood dishes dominate the menu.

For lighter fare (mains $11 to $17), try the adjacent pub, dubbed the Shed.
