Fodor's Expert Review Canoe

Just up the road in Center Harbor, this boathouse-inspired bistro sits high above Lake Winnipesaukee and has seating in both a quieter dining room and a convivial bar with an open kitchen. It's known for seafood, including wood-fired, bacon-wrapped scallops and a creamy, entrée-size haddock chowder topped with herbs and crushed Ritz Crackers. Canoe is also serves several varieties of gooey mac and cheese as well as burgers, steaks, and wood-fired flatbreads.
