Moat Mountain Smokehouse & Brewing Co.
The gathering spot for the Mt. Washington Valley — a historic building, a beloved brewery, and a BBQ-forward menu that's earned loyalty across decades. Miss V's Blueberry Ale and Scottie's IPA are the crowd favorites. Major après-ski energy on winter weekends.
Expect waits on peak weekends. Get there early or call ahead.
Ledge Brewing + Taco Bar
The closest brewery to Bartlett — a few minutes off Rt. 302/16 in Intervale, between the Villa and North Conway. Great NEIPAs and rotating taps alongside a solid taco menu. Outdoor seating and live music in warmer months.
As You Wish NEIPA and Hive Mind (honeycomb yeast) are the standouts.
Wildcat Inn & Tavern
The classic Jackson après-ski and any-night bar, in a post-and-beam tavern with tables made from old chairlift parts. Live music four to five nights a week year-round. Garden patio open in warmer months. As much about the atmosphere as the food.
If you're skiing Wildcat Mountain, this is the obvious après destination — 10 minutes from the base.
Red Fox Bar & Grille
Family-owned since 1990, right at the Jackson covered bridge. Everything made from scratch, generous portions, warm hospitality. High energy on ski weekends but a dependable dinner spot year-round. Great burgers.
Call-ahead seating is available and worth using on busy weekends.
Shannon Door Pub
Open since 1953, the Shannon Door is one of the oldest bars in the valley — a cozy, low-key Irish-American pub with live music and great bar pizza. No pretense, full bar, and exactly what you want on a cold night.
One of the few places in the valley that feels genuinely lived-in.
Tuckerman Brewing Co.
Named after the famous ski ravine on Mt. Washington, Tuckerman Brewing grew from a garage operation into one of the most-loved craft breweries in New Hampshire. Tuckerman's Pale Ale is the flagship. Indoor taproom year-round; outdoor beer garden open spring through fall.
About 20 minutes from Bartlett — combine with a morning on the Kancamagus.
Vito Marcello's Italian Bistro
The best Italian food in the valley, in a charming bistro that's been earning its reputation since 1988. Classic pasta, good wine list, intimate atmosphere. Reservations recommended on weekends.
A good option when the group wants something quieter and more sit-down than the brewpubs.
Peach's Restaurant
The dependable morning stop — a family-owned breakfast and lunch café open daily 7am to 2:30pm. Gluten-free options, unpretentious, and exactly right before a hike.
Get there before 9am on weekends or expect a wait.
