This place was delicious! I had the roast turkey delight and it was packed full of turkey! The tomato jam was amazing on it as well. I had a bite of the crispy Korean chicken sandwich and that was also divine. Next time I would probably try one of their other chicken sandwiches! It was also lovely to sit on the porch for lunch today with plenty of seating available. read more

Fiddleheads Cafe - Roast turkey delight - Sandwiches Near Me - Hancock, New Hampshire

This place disappoints me time and time again. On multiple occasions now I've had to wait 30 minutes for a single sandwich all for it to just fall apart and be a soggy mess, or for the chicken to be fried so bad it's almost black. Fried chicken should never be that dark. It takes either over cooking it by like 10 minutes, or having really dirty fry oil. Even on days when there are only like 3-4 other customers they take way too long for one sandwich and it still comes out awful. I will say their baked good are phenomenal. But when it comes to getting anything off the menu I think I'll pass from here on out. Aside from that the staff is very friendly and the place is quaint enough to enjoy a coffee and a pastry. But all in all definitely a 3 star restaurant and honestly I would've given it a 2 if their pastries weren't so impressive. read more

Literally everything here is good. Easily the best breakfast in a 30 minute radius. Get the biscuits and gravy. read more

Fiddleheads has always been a cornerstone of the hancock and monadnock community but since the new owners have taken over they are on another level. Great outdoor seating for the summer and quant indoor seating year round. Always busy on the weekend my go to is the plumber which is like a lumberjack special on a sandwiches and all there sandwiches and specials are on point and delicious. I could go here everyday for the desert and side options, easily better than any grocery store sides. Ambiance is cozy Cafe with a variety of art hanging up for sale through out the year adding to the experience. read more

The food is ok. I say ok because of the lack of consistency. I ordered the same thing three different times. Not the same any of the three times ordered. I kept ordering the same thing because the first time I ordered it, it was so good. The service is the worst! They really need to hire people for the front counter that have a bit more personality. Some who makes you feel welcome rather than you're a bother. read more

on my visit the place was run by teenagers. The food was awful (avocado toast with egg); the coffee was below-marginal. The interior is shaggy and impractical, the ambiance is transient. Not worth the charge. read more

Again,tried it with friends , and more disappointing than before .. they were out/didn't have what was on the menu.. had always had the tuna tried it again. Too SALTY the soups were sadly disappointing.. we all ordered tea and sadly we each had to go and ask for it and then the sad soup was cold.. I would think a beverage would be served before the food(and NO they were not busy) lots of attitudes from the staff, they never thank you for ordering . Besides the food improving they all can use a class in manners! read more

Great little place in the center of rural town. I recommend it. Great ambiance. Good food. read more

**Ignore any reviews that say anything about gross food ** Surely that would have to do with simply Not liking something out of personal preference , because this place puts out DELICIOUS food at a great price. Very congenial and attended to atmosphere and lots of attention out into the food quality and it is obvious. Highly recommended, go out of your way, best cafe place within 50 mile radius. Tons of options for add ons, the baked goods are fantastic, and it is in a beautiful spot in a small NH Village, So to the below reviewer who dares to utter "gross" at the food here, I say be careful with your adjectives, and stop leaving 3 star reviews with such negative word choices!!! read more

We are so lucky to have the new fiddleheads in our Village. Handcrafted sandwiches and breakfast are all delicious . Their bakery selections are interesting, but really dream of them having donuts every Saturday and Sunday... i've heard their Thursday night. Dinners are excellent. read more

I had the cobb salad. in a word, excellent in every way. All ingredients were fresh and homemade . Service was excellent is well. We sat outside on a splendid summer day...how great it was. Fiddleheads under new management is off to a great start. It is a must go-to if you are in the Hancock area. We will be back soon ! read more

Fiddleheads Cafe - Cobb Salad - Sandwiches Near Me - Hancock, New Hampshire

Several friends moved to the area and wouldn't shut up about this place. Just to placate them I went in....Honestly, probably the best breakfast I've ever eaten. No joke. Every item I ordered tasted fresh like it was home made. I love the eclectic menu. Lots of inspiration from Central America and North Africa. Where else could you order a burrito and shashuka!? The only gripe I have is the set up. As a brand new customer I had to navigate how to do things: coffee is self serve, bus your own dishes, not sure whether to pay/tip at the table or the register, etc. BUT the staff are super friendly and affable. All in all an outstanding meal with old school New England charm. I live an hour away and will be going more often. read more

Awesome food and great people. Baked goods are delightful as are the sandwiches and takeaway. They're now doing dinners to go which is excellent read more

Get there early this place is booming with business. The food was phenomenal, the service was extremely helpful and polite. Can't wait to return. read more

Great breakfast spot. Well cooked and arranged meals. The cookies, muffins and scones are to die for. You'll come back regularly.

New owners as of Memorial Day 2023- the food is just as good. The staff is very friendly and all smile. We got cappuccinos and we liked them better then a regular cup of coffee. The oatmeal and maple over yogurt was so good we went two days in a row to get it. The donuts here are good and do not taste of oil- he maple glazed donut was the best, so tasty and not too sweat. The spinach salad was of a generous portion enough for too but the dressing is just a little tart. The children got egg sandwiches and loved them. The bread here is worth trying! I hope they start to sell bread and loaves soon. Suggestion, be patient this is not fast food establishment and they make the food to order. It gets busy here. Nice porch for the overflow if inside dining. read more

We came for a birthday breakfast. Had the "everything" avocado toast (excellent) and the breakfast burrito (very good but dense, needed more salsa on the side). The lattes were good. The pastry was excellent. The staff is always friendly. The seating options are ample and comfortable, and Main Street is never very noisy. Good for a little excursion and a charming New England small town nosh. read more

Fiddleheads Cafe - Sandwiches Near Me - Hancock, New Hampshire

FIVE STARS FOR FIDDLEHEADS THURSDAY SUPPER! Breakfast and lunch were already excellent at this charming cafe in picturesque Hancock, New Hampshire--with incredible homemade muffins, donuts, cookies, salads, eggs and sandwiches. But now they're branching out for dinners too. For those of you who were lucky enough to try Fiddleheads first Thursday Night Supper, cleverly named "Waxing Crescent" after the moon, congratulations! For everyone else, you too can get lucky when the suppers resume the Thursday after Thanksgiving. Cozy romantic lighting and the quirky tea towel curtains transformed the bustling cafe into a calm and cozy retreat. Every dish our party of five had was a delight. Blue Hubbard and Ginger Soup was proclaimed, "Maybe the best soup I've ever had." Instead of the usual gooey, cheesey, thick soup often encountered with squash, Fiddlehead's was a robustly flavored broth that showcased the nutty Hubbard and spoke of rich leafy Fall. Sumac Pickled Onion and Fennel Salad was sharp and crisp and in an unexpected counter point, larded with shreds of tender duck confit. Garrigue Kippered Salmon with Fresh Radish and Pickled Beat was lightly smoked and resting on a bed of hard cooked egg and dilly cream. This dish took one directly to a heathery streambank in Scottish Highland where it may have been prepared right after being caught. The entrees we had, Chicken Milanese with roasted cauliflower, caper, lemon and shaved apple with spicy greens and a Red Wine Braised Short Rib with dried fruit, arugula gremolata on a pond of black peppered polenta were completely satisfying--the richness of the meat, set off and highlighted by sharp contrasts of sour, bitter and sweet accents of vegetable, herb and sauce, lingered. Cranberry and Lime Curd Tart is a revelation that should be on everyone's Thanksgiving table from now on. Roasted Apple Cobbler with salted caramel and sweet rosemary biscuit and vanilla ice cream is the Platonic ideal of an apple dessert. And calling the flourless, espresso flavored, boozy orange cream topped dessert simply "Chocolate Cake" is a funny way of disguising a plate that no one could stop eating. The wine list is perfect--small, focused and affordable. And if beer is your preferred beverage the representation is as varied and food friendly as you could want. I don't believe I've had a better meal in the whole Monadnock Region. And the price was as good or better than many. If we all say our prayers or nicely ask Santa, Fiddleheads Thursday supper will spread over the whole weekend. But for now, pick a Thursday and GO. read more

Have not been to Fiddlehead's since the new owners took over and I have to say it wasn't as expected. The woman at the counter was very nice and our order was timely but, my mom's Ruben was terrible, very tough meat so much so that she could hardly chew it. My chili verde was very tasty but again the chicken was quite tough. The bagged chips were also stale . The cookies however were yummy. read more

Service here is spotty, as are opening hours. Staff is so rude and the prices are so high, it's not worth it. The old Fiddleheads was great. Don't bother! read more

Under new ownership, I excitedly stopped in twice now- last Saturday for a scone and matcha latte and today, for a breakfast burrito and a mocha latte. Well priced, fantastic atmosphere, beautifully painted - this place is a true gem. I thought I would just take a bite of my burrito this morning and save it for later, but I ate it before I could stop myself - it was one of the most delicious things I've ever had! Fresh, with roasted yams, black beans and lots of flavor. And the mocha latte wasn't too sweet, not Too milky, honestly just exactly perfect. I can't wait to go back! Also the matcha latte and scone were delicious as well. The workers are friendly, the ambiance is welcoming, this is my new favorite spot. read more

Fiddleheads is a regular stop on some of our longer bike rides. Moderately busy this season on the weekends, which is good to see. We usually get paninis of some type with chips and a pickle and to date all of them have been well made and fresh. Good selection of Sri is and an expansive menu. Sometimes the food can take a bit to arrive which is fine as so far it has been worth the wait. Worth a stop. read more

Under new ownership, I have been to Fiddleheads a couple of times for breakfast recently and been delighted with their new menu. The staff is great, the prices reasonable and the food excellent...what more do you need? And to top it off, they have redecorated and made it more comfortable. read more

Super cute cafe! We were in the area checking out houses and stumbled across this gem. Huge menu with option for take & heat. My hubby & daughter shared a Turkey bacon melt with chips which they both liked. I had the roast beef panini which was flavorful. My daughter enjoyed her iced chai which she is very selective about. We would definitely go back if we were in the area. Great wrap around deck to eat outdoors. Very dog friendly which was cool. read more

Hugely disappointing! We are new to the area and passed Fiddleheads many times. We were really looking forward to trying it once the pandemic eased. Cute place, good looking menu. Then we got our orders. Bummer! I had asked for no cheese on my salad and the kitchen included cheese. Ok, not a huge deal. But when I got back to the table my husband said the bread was stale to the point of being inedible. I poked it and it was dry as dust. He was going to eat the chicken salad off the bread anyway, so he took the bread off the top. No chicken salad sandwich, sliced turkey with lettuce and tomato. Not even close. No apologies from the waitress for any of it. We got our money back and left. I wish I could say it was busy, but it wasn't. There was only one other table with three people. SO disappointed! We won't go back. read more

Fiddleheads is the center of Hancock. I was a tour guide for 2 weeks to an Italian group of 8 women who wanted to explore New England. Since I have a home back in Hancock, we came here for a day. Sherry makes everybody welcome with open arms. Her menu has expanded to include a great variety of local foods at reasonable prices. I called her a few days in advance and told her about our group. She created a special menu with organic meats and veggies, and home made fruit pies. It was a highlight of our trip back in Hancock. If you visit Hancock make a point to stop by and enjoy the Cafe. read more

Great selection of custom sandwiches on home baked bread. New owner Carrie's on the Fiddleheads tradition. Definitely a great stop in Hancock. Not far off 202. read more

This restaurant has a new owner and chef and it is a fabulous upgrade! Great "sandos" and salads and the best pastries and coffees. There were a lot of customers and we still received our food quickly. We loved the raspberry "Breakfast Cookie" and avocado toast and "Plumber" breakfast sandwich. Great ambience, clean, great service, nice porch seating in a picturesque and lovely little town. Highly recommend! read more

Such a cute place! Great pastries, yummy coffee, and service with a smile. A win with this place!

Delicious fresh, & made to order food. A wide assortment of sandwiches, paninis as well as delightful desserts and libations. I was staying at an AirBnB near by so we wanted to check this place out. We were not disappointed!! read more

We got 4 different sandwiches all on homemade bread and they were fantastic. So good that we went back in for dessert and coffees that were also delicious. We will be back. Beautiful area and nice outdoor seating in the sun or shade. Pam was friendly and helpful. read more

Wonderful variety of goods. Delicious!!! Everything from on the spot freshly made to order breakfasts, to take home entrees, desserts, breads, too much to list. read more

Had breakfast sandwiches and coffee here one Sunday morning as we were passing through town. The coffee selection was wonderful, but the breakfast sandwiches were small and nothing special. We also got a side of corned beef hash which was too salty up finish and a disappointingly small portion. Ambience is lovely though with their beautiful wrap around porch and lots of outdoor seating. We'd recommend it for coffee and relaxation on the porch but less so for the food. read more

Visiting from CT...and after kayaking on beautiful Spoonwood Pond, stopped in for a delicious, reasonably-priced, quickly-served breakfast! Would definitely go back again (to both places!). read more

Sherry at Fiddleheads met and exceeded all our expectations. As self-proclaimed foodies from DC, we were looking for a caterer who could give us the farm to table, autumnal menu we dreamed of. Let me tell you, this woman knows good food. All our guests are still raving about how delicious the beef tenderloin, cider braised chicken and portobella mushrooms stuffed with risotto. Those are just a few highlights from the main course. The cocktail hour appetizers, along with the main course sides also impressed. Sherry even made gluten free dinner rolls for me, which gets her extra bonus points. Sherry's staff were efficient, friendly and made everyone feel at home. If you're looking for a caterer who knows good food, is adaptable and just all around awesome; Sherry is your woman! read more

Wife and I go there once in a while. Bakery items are awesome. Their Anadama Bread is the absolute best. Friendly staff - good food. A little bit pricey but the quality is excellent. We will continue to stop in when we are over that way. read more

What an adorable country cafe! I have been going here for years and just love it, especially in the summer when I can laze about on their porch with my cup of coffee. Sherry makes delicious scones that you should try. I always get the cinnamon ones, and when she makes them, the raspberry and white chocolate ones. Soups here are great and any of the breakfast items. Great place to stop and enjoy life! read more

My wife and I stopped in on a weekend morning for a quick breakfast. The prices were very reasonable, and the food choices were pretty simple. FYI - they serve 6 different kinds of coffee. My breakfast, 2 eggs, ham, potatoes, and wheat toast was delicious. My wife was stealing bites from mine. Her English muffin with egg sandwich came out with the muffin too brown for my wife (it was closer to burnt than brown). So my wife asked them to put it on the wheat bread like I had (the wheat bread slices are about 2-3x the thickness of a regular piece of toast, and very good). The coffee was great! I like medium roast, and many places don't offer that, just dark roast or french roast (aka burnt). Overall Fiddleheads is a great place for a quick, non-fancy breakfast. read more
