Henniker is a quiet little college town in central NH. Home of
New England College, a thriving arts population and people who care about their community this town is a worthwhile stop during foliage season. On October 2nd The Spirit of Henniker Organizational Team (affectionately known as S.H.O.T) and New England College will host
Music on Main Street from 9 - 4PM. There will be live bands, an antique car show and kids games for families. It sounds like an opportunity to have some fun as you take a recommended drive through some of the most beautiful roads in
New Hampshire. My recent visit took me into Henniker at lunch time and wanting something better than pizza, I found a nice little restaurant and pub named
Daniel's. Overlooking the Contookook River, the dining room is clean and well staffed. I had the french onion soup with a side salad, while my other half chose a hamburger with cheddar cheese. The food was piping hot when it arrived, perfectly cooked (though the burger and fried potatoes portions were huge) and delicious. Our wait staff was attentive without being intrusive and knowledgable about the menu. I look forward to returning to Daniel's Restaurant and Pub on my next visit to Henniker, perhaps I'll see some of you there! -AMA
