The Colonial Inn

The most historic restaurant in Concord also has some great food.
In good weather the best spot is out front on the porch watching Concord go by.
In the winter the cozy back bar with dark wood and a gas fireplace is lovely.
Grab some clam chowder or beef poutine and then Indian Pudding for dessert.

The Colonial Inn dates back to 1716, making it one of the most historic businesses in Concord. Originally three buildings, including a munitions storage house during the Revolution, it eventually combined into one and has been operating as a hotel for more than 130 years.

We like to have a drink and share an appetizer on the front porch in the spring and summer. Looking out on Monument Square, you can see the heart of Concord. In the winter, we like to hunker down in the back bar room near the fireplace.

Our favorite dishes to order are the Clam Chowder, Chicken Quesadilla, Beef Poutine, or Chicken Wings. If you want something bigger, the Yankee Pot Roast or Fish and Chips are good choices. For dessert, try the Indian Pudding, a recipe as historic as the Inn itself.
