Welcome to Dutch Treat

“ Oct 2024 Our family came here for dinner during the busy fall-peeper season so we weren't surprised there was a wait for dinner. It didn't take long to be seated but they let us know it would be 45 minutes to get food (it only took 30). In the meantime we enjoyed delicious beverages and the servers (Diana was amazing!) were friendly and attentive even though super busy. Franconia is a quieter local town than the more commercialized other local ski towns and we were thrilled to be visiting. It was cool to see people from all over the world and have a long chat with locals at the end of the night. Oh yeah, the food was delicious also! Big menu. I'm not sure I cared though because the ambiance made it the most special. ”

“ We were driving back from Vermont, and stopped in here for brunch - and what a great find! They were off to a slow start, with one server at opening - but she was so friendly. We went on St. Patrick’s Day, so of course we had to get their corned beef special. At the waitress’s recommendation, we also got the steak and cheese and French onion soup. ”

“ Diana was wonderful, very welcoming and friendly. Fish and chips and pizza and probably one of the best we have had. Looks a little run down on the outside but good atmosphere inside. Definitely recommend. ”

“ Came for an early dinner (we missed lunch exploring the White Mountains) after seeing they were in our guidebook and nearby. We got there at a good time as it was nearly empty prior to dinner rush (4pm). Our waitress, Diana, was super friendly (in the down-to-earth way, not the fake, peppy waitress way) and chatte with us as bit. We both ordered the fish & chips. Normally, there always seems to be one component of a meal there isn't as good as the rest, but not in this case. The coleslaw was the perfect level of moisture & seasoning, the fish was cooked perfectly, with a golden, crisp coating and not greasy at all. The fries were also cooked great, not greasy and actually were salted correctly! You can always tell when they wait too long to salt fries so no salt sticks. I thought the tartar sauce would disappoint, as it looked more mayo-like than I'm used to, but again, it was perfect! So happy we ended up there and would definitely stop in again if we get up that way. ”

“ We had a great family dinner at the Dutch Treat. What a super restaurant! Food and cocktails were delicious. Our waitress Diana is a Franconia treasure. One room has the bar and a pool table. The other room is quieter for dinner. Stylish homey food and ambiance. We have a wheelchair: one handicap spot in large Parking lot and one-step up into the restaurant. ”

“ I had the fish chowder and the kids had a kids hamburger, kids butter pasta and we had the cheese cake and apple pie. My 6 year old ate every bite of his giant burger and loved it. My chowder was the best meal of my trip so far and the apple pie was fought over! The place was fairly empty on a Tuesday afternoon but people seemed to like it - there was a group of ladies playing a game after their meal. We loved the vibe. ”

“ Went to Dutch’s for the first time after their ‘make over’/remodel (see more on Restaurant Impossible) and was impressed. Same family style service, but the menu has definitely been upgraded. Wife had the Portobello Sandwich and I had a huge serving of Crispy Chicken. Both were super tasty! The interior decor is a great refresh, and the beer/wine/drink selection remains great. Busier now that some other local spots have closed. We will try the pizza next. Good bar too! ”
