Helen is a complete hoot. Like visiting relatives! Her extended family works here! We have been going for 3 years and NEVER had a bad meal! Bountiful plates all fresh. Wood pizza oven! Burgers are the best around! Chicken tenders none better. read more

My mother and I had such a fun dinner at Helen's Place! Glad we got there early (just after 5pm on a cold and snowy Friday) because it was like watching a bird feeder with all the people zipping in and out for their take-away orders. In between, people were arriving for dinner and most opted to sit in the bar room where there is a big TV, though I never heard it. In fact, given all the people pouring in, I was surprised it wasn't louder. I spied an Absolut Citron Cosmo on the cocktail menu, and that is the official Cosmo recipe, so I was quick to order it. I was thrilled when our amazing server, Brooke, delivered not only my Cosmo to the table, but a lowball glass with the "dirty" ice the bartender had shaken the drink with and thought to send to the table with the perfectly crafted cocktail! What a great touch! I can't remember the last time I ordered a Cosmo out because I got tired of being disappointed. This one was 100% on the mark. I really want to give Brooke a shout out. I am vegetarian and she was really helpful sharing how they can customize so much of the menu. I had already seen the Impossible Burger on the menu and had my mind made up, but next time I will try the pizza (though the Impossible was perfect and piping hot!). I chose sweet potato fries as my side and they were very thick yet crispy on the outside and tender in the inside. I also ordered Sara's Choice Salad, which was red and green Little Leaf lettuce topped with sliced cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, thinly sliced red onions, blueberries, and big dollops of goat cheese. The maple balsamic vinaigrette on the side was the perfect accompaniment. The coffee is FRESH. Helen's must be one of the only places remaining that dumps coffee if it sits past a certain amount of time. My mother knows her coffee, and she commented on how good it was. The atmosphere is super casual, like a rustic family cabin. Very warm and welcoming, especially on a dark, messy night. Even the patrons were wonderful. I recommend this for a casual date night, family dinner, people of all ages, or if you just want a really good takeout meal. This is a really great local gem and I think I found my kitchen away from home. read more

Good food and lots of NH atmosphere! Get there at 5pm and plenty of tables available!

We have always had the best experiences at Helen's and we go often! From the amazing steak dinners to homemade fresh tenders and delicious burgers to the family atmosphere where Helen is always going above and beyond to accommodate and please her customers with a smile. Helen's never disappoints! read more

We go at least once a week and always have amazing service and GREAT food. Helen's is far better than the previous establishment. She holds high standards in food quality and it shows. Basically, everything on the menu is fabulous but our absolute favorite is the fish and chips. Large portion of fresh, flakey white fish served with fries and side of coleslaw. Me and my husband usually share. The ribs...amazing. Chicken wings..amazing. Mcgregor salad..say less. Best goat cheese. Pizza yes please. Fish sandwich..again yum! And the burgers!!!!! So so sooooo good and never dry. I could go on and on. Also..she always has specials and I've been bugging her to bring back the lasagna and chicken parm sandwiches so can't wait for that!!! read more

Food and service was absolutely horrible! Don't even bother. The microwave seems to be their favorite cooking method.

I don't really want to leave a review for Helen's Place because it's so local I love the idea of not helping to contribute to popularize a precious place that is truly a hidden gem to outsiders. But, here I go. Walking in -- and all throughout my lovely and unforgettable Grantham dining experience -- I could smell fresh, uncooked herbs. It was the kind of aroma that you rarely smell in restaurants so vividly. So after ordering a drink I walked the floors to find out if there was a popular dish. So here is maybe another secret - or maybe just a coincidence for that evening - many tables ordered the main star pasta. There are less than 5 pasta dishes on this menu, so the fettuccini alfredo must must be magic. And because I'm not a local, I wondered how inviting folks would be. I had people at the bar chatting it up with me and they were awesome! I was so impressed that I walked up and asked to meet Helen. She is one awesome and amazing owner! Very friendly and gracious. I ordered the salad and fettuccini with red sauce and they were delicious. The portions are large. Helen's Place of Grantham is the rare place I have no issues spending $18 for a pasta dish on. It's a standard price to pay for pasta dishes in the Upper Valley but I never felt the price was worth it until now. You know, being part Italian, the meatballs are never right, the sauce may be too laden or not flavorful enough, the noodles are not homemade or even al denté. None of these complaints apply at Helen's Place because I loved my pasta! I even had enough to bring home and share. They must use fresh herbs on many of their other dishes, because of the lovely fragrances. And I just love the priorities they use in their culinary choices: fresh ingredients, winning preparation and abundant quantities. The rotating specials menu is also popular. I saw some awesome things I knew would probably be better than elsewhere, ie the jalapeño poppers. And wine and margaritas all being merrily enjoyed together: I'm all in. Loved the dinner, the ambience, the family setting and the fare. This is a lovely find and there is no place I've been in many years with such fresh aromas as Helen's. read more

Helen tells GREAT stories; food and service...muah! My personal fav is the Rueben or any pizza(and beer!)!

Wonderful gem. You can tell food is homemade- and fresh and not from a bag.. They use local meats and produce whenever possible. It may cost a little extra for all of that- but well worth it. read more

I can certainly find a better choice. Ok food and drink. Extremely over priced. 2 drinks and 2 dinners. 100 dollars with the tip. That was not worth the price. read more

Great local eatery clearly run by locals for locals. Good variety on the menu with great appetizers, salads and sandwiches/burgers and entrees as well as wood-fired pizzas. The giant pretzel is a must!! I had caresses salad with super fresh tomatoes - delish! Turkey burger special was chargrilled and great. The buffalo wings are indeed spicy ! Salads were fresh and crispy. The place is open and casual and relaxed. Plenty of parking. The service was perfect - attentive and got all our orders exactly right. We will come here often!! read more

The food is consistently fresh and delicious, and the staff is always attentive. We eat there regularly and have never been disappointed.

We LOVED this place! A new local staple! Gavin was fantastic and everyone was very welcoming and the service was great. Chill atmosphere, amazing food! Can't say enough good things:) read more

Helen's Place - Best place ever - Pizza Near Me - Grantham, New Hampshire

Best fish & chips and wood fired pizza around. Quality, portions, and price all exceeded expectations.

Very friendly atmosphere and quick service. We were disappointed with our orders as the chef apparently doesn't believe in spices. The Mac n cheese was mostly white sauce with very little cheese. The spring rolls were fresh, crispy,?but tasteless. No ginger, garlic, etc in the rolls The hamburger was huge but dry. I could only eat half of it. The prices are reasonable and staff accommodation was excellent. read more

Busy Saturday evening with about a 1/2 hr wait for our party of six. It was worth the wait. The salad was fantastic as well as the pizza. We also had wings, clam chowder, burger, and kids meals. Everyone was satisfied with their choice. We even met Helen and she was a nice lady to talk to. I would recommend this place for dinner! read more

Serving food, service in a great country setting. Great job! Every time I visit I leave happy and satisfied!

I went in at 4:40 &ordered one fish and chips dinner to go. After 40 min.of waiting I had to leave, so I asked for my money back so I could go. Helen,the owner,loudly announced"YOU ARE NOT MY ONLY CUSTOMER!" I said basically, I was. There were 3 people at the bar,and 2 tables of 2 in the dining room. On a Friday night. There should not be more than a 40min.wait for fish and chips in a dead restaurant. I got my money back,thanked the young girl that helped me, and as I was leaving Helen,again,the OWNER, asked me, very loudly, to not come back. Don't worry Helen,I wouldn't think of it. Imagine the owner of a restaurant telling a person who wanted to support you,eat your food,and SPEND MY MONEY in YOUR place not to return because I had to leave. It would have been better for you,and your restaurant, to apologize to me for the delay, and offer me a drink. That is how a successful restaurant works. Clearly you have not have had any professional training. You're restaurant is dead on a Friday night and you send me out without my dinner,and yell to me not to return because you're slow? Not good Helen. You behaved very trashy. Not a good look. read more

7 friends decided to have lunch here and we'll be back! The service was excellent. My hat is off to the server who got 7 different checks separated flawlessly and her service was everything you could hope for. As to the food:delicious and well prepared x 7. Everything is made from scratch and you can tell it has not been sitting in a pot or in a warmer since morning. My husband, a craft beer fan, was very impressed with their selection. Dessert, a chocolate mousse with berries and a touch of coffee, is not to be overlooked if you ate a chocolate lover. The pace is a GEM! read more

Wonderful meal and such a good update to the already good menu! Interior brushed up, great staff, and glad to have the restaurant back in business. read more

Best entree salads I've had in the area. They are substantial size and well served. Ingredients are crisp and fresh. Ordered a toasted hamburger bun as a side starch. Excellent meal. read more

Service was good. Food was terrible. Nothing was fresh, all premade. I got a turkey burger which was pre-made and frozen not fresh. For almost $20, I expect better quality. My husband got chili, which he said was awful and he couldn't eat it. Very loud inside, sort of cavernous. We really wanted this to be a good experience, but it was not. We will not be back, and we do not recommend Helen's Place. read more

The food is exceptional here and very fresh! This is a family owned and operated restaurant that puts their heart and soul into your dining experience and your food. If you haven't tried it, you must! read more
