A cornerstone of the community is Lou’s Restaurant, one of the downtown breakfast/lunch options, a tradition since 1947 and a favorite breakfast gathering place for locals and visitors alike. For a touch of the North Country, several places offer bistro food and live music in a rustic setting. Just outside of town, Jesse’s serves steaks and seafood in a log cabin reminiscent of an Alaskan adventure.
Or visit The Norwich Inn to experience their micro-brew pub featuring its own Jasper Murdoch beer and classic New England charm. In Lyme, you can find pub fare at the Latham Tavern in Dowd’s Country Inn with a choice of great local beer on tap or farm/sea to table fare at Ariana’s in the Lyme Inn.
