New Hampshire is a very big state. I can give you better guidance if you can let me know where you'll be.

Best pizza is a tough question, as New England in general is not known for it's pizza (being a native New Yorker I am very picky as to my pizza). that said there are a number of chains represented- such as Lui Lui and bertuucci's that have predictable pizza.

For seafood, I'd recommend Markey's Lobster Pool (Route 286, Seabrook, NH, (603) 474-2851). Seabrook is right over the Massachusetts border.

Best experience...there are three I'd recommended. hampton Beach has lots of traditional "carny" type food in a casual atmosphere. Portsmouth has a number of great little electric eateries near the Strawberry banke historic district. Spend some time walking about, and select a place with a menu of the day that seems intriguing to you.

Up further north, the Eagle Mountain House has gourmet food in an elegant setting.

Have a great trip!

I'll be driving around, so if there's a cool place worth checking out, I just might put it into the itinerary! I'll be sure to check out the Portsmouth area... thanks!

I lived on the seacoast of New Hampshire for about 7 years and now live in MA. I must say my husband and I miss the best pizza place and nothing can compare. It's in Dover, NH, which is very close to Portsmouth. So, here is my favorite NH pizza place:
1. La Festa Brick and Brew http://www.lafestabrickandbrew.com/

As for seafood, in Portsmouth would be:
2. Old Ferry Landing, 10 Ceres St, Portsmouth, NH 03801-3706. Here is a link to some reviews: http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g46209-d412895-r8282252-Old_Ferry_Landing-Portsmouth_New_Hampshire.html

Another of my favorite selections would also be in Portsmouth for a nice Dinner at night where you can then later take a walk in the park and over by the water.
3. Portsmouth Brewery, 56 Market Street, Portsmouth, 603-431-1115 or 603-431-8359, http://www.portsmouthbrewery.com/ - make sure to check that website out. It's awsome and includes a calendar you should be aware of. They have an amazing selection of beer and I always enjoyed getting their hard cider (my favorite, over any beer.)

Good Luck & Have Fun!
