Sandy Point Restaurant
You want a good Lobster? Or maybe some Haddock? Or a monster prime rib? This is your place. The Seuss racing family raves about Sandy Point and for a good reason. Their Modified racing team, with driver Andy Seuss, knows the area well. When it comes to food and racing, you can trust a Seuss.

Red Arrow Diner
Voted to be one of the best diners in America, Red arrow lives up to it's billing. It's a unique and very small building hidden in downtown Manchester, NH. The place is open 24/7 and serves breakfast around the clock. Sit at the same table as some famous people too! Adam Sandler has his own burger there. Red Arrow is a favorite of Food Network star Guy Fieri. Everything on the menu is awesome. I love to start out with their chili. The Dinamoe burger rules. Oh and try a Red Arrow favorite... America Chop Suey. Oh and their deserts are to die for. The cream pies, to eclairs to homemade twinkies... you'll love 'em.

The Common Man
Quite possibly MD's favorite place to eat during New Hampshire Motor Speedway race weekend. The old barn building right off the Manchester Street exit in Concord, NC is a great place to dine. Rustic New England charm warms you just as much as their legendary Lobster Corn Chowder. I also love their baked Haddock, which comes with a ritz cracker crust! The white chocolate is to die for!

Makris
It's the closest seafood place from NHMS. So if you are staying at the track swing by. Makris offers good fresh seafood favorites but they are most known for their lobster.

Billy's Sports Bar
"Thursday they have a WICKED good meatloaf," says Sprint Cup Series crew member Erick MacPherson. A lot of us know Erick as "Moose" in the garage area. He's a heck of a guy and knows his food so we will listen to him. Plus, he's not a stick-figure... stick-figures aren't as trustworthy with food-picks. Looking at the menu at Billy's they have a wide assortment of typical pub-fare, sandwiches, various nachos, lamb kabobs, seafood...and yes, wicked good meatloaf!

Everyone has their favorite Italian joint in the North End of Boston. This place is pretty darn good! Some may argue there is better, we loved it. A true family place with family portions and prices!

Boston - IS - an Option
Don't be fooled... Boston is a reasonable option for those traveling to NHMS for the race weekend. It's just a short drive away from where many in the industry stay and is one of the greatest city's in America. With that said, here are a few choices...
Mike's Pastry
If you venture to Boston and don't go to Mike's... shame on you!!!! I am from NY but will go on record in saying that Mike's has the best cannoli I've ever had! Bakery heaven in the North End of Boston!
