New Hampshire restaurants close during July and August 2026

Several restaurants in New Hampshire closed during July and August 2026. Among the closures was The Dive, a popular floating restaurant in Alton located on Lake Winnepesaukee, which ceased operations following a devastating fire in July. The owners decided not to rebuild the establishment but indicated a potential sale of the brand and assets.

Additionally, two Pizza Hut locations closed in August, reducing the total number of the national chain's outlets in the state to approximately ten.
