A relaxed, inviting atmosphere

The Higgins family purchased Lamie’s Inn as a home for their popular restaurant, The Old Salt, after the original location on Hampton Beach was destroyed by fire. The Old Salt’s reputation for quality and warmth is the perfect compliment to the Inn’s tradition of excellence. We're a family-run restaurant specializing in fresh local seafood but we also have an extensive steak, sandwich and appetizer menu. Enjoy a meal in our restaurant, or relax in our Tavern with the sounds of live entertainment every Friday and Saturday night.
