Saying goodbye isn't easy.

Unfortunately, for four New Hampshire restaurants, that's exactly what we had to do as they closed their doors for good in August 2025.

A pizza place, a vegan cafe, a small restaurant serving French cuisine, and a high-end eatery with a tavern feel ended their respective runs in the Granite State.

In a Facebook post, New England Pizza & Roast Beef in Rochester revealed that with "much love and gratitude," they would be closing on August 29.

It had been open for nearly 30 years.

Owner Jay Picard said in the post that he's enjoyed bonding with the community and appreciated "all of those who have stuck by my side throughout my time of being open. As well as those who have come in, even if that may have only been once."

Bridge Street Bistrot & Wine Bar shared on its website the announcement of its permanent closure as of August 13.

This would mark the end of a 30-plus-year journey for its owners and the building, which has gone through multiple iterations, including the former Cafe Mirabelle.

The silver lining? Despite the sale of the 64 Bridge Street location, the owners hint at a "next dining adventure" in the future. So something to look forward to!
