    a refrigerator full of fresh vegetables
    Ian W.

    The Root is located in a restored barn (formerly Kindred Spirits) along NH 101 selling organic produce and also a great gathering spot for freshly brewed organic coffee, chai tea and homemade pastries! The place is still a work in progress with limited hours (in October 2019) open on Tuesdays and Saturdays for now. I stopped in here recently for a cup of freshly brewed organic coffee and a chocolate croissant. The place has ample table seating and comfortable armchairs to enjoy drinks and homemade baked goods. The chocolate croissant I had was freshly baked, very firm and buttery. The organic coffee was very good after adding organic creamer and turbinado. I would definitely stop in here again for coffee if I am already driving on Route 101 between Milford and Peterborough.

    I hadn't expected to find an excellent take-out kitchen in the Irving gas station in Rindge, but…read moreit is there. Hiraeth Place is a modest-looking small kitchen with an impressively large menu of sandwiches, salads, wraps, soups, etc., and desserts including brownies and cheesecake. On my first visit I got the "Naked Gun" turkey sandwich-- on fresh bread with real turkey (not deli sliced turkey). Delicious. Also a rich, savory and creamy Hungarian Mushroom soup, packed with mushrooms. Then on the second visit, a caesar salad, tossed and dressed on the spot, and for dessert a rich and delicious slice of cheesecake. Then later, a chewy chocolate brownie. Everything was first rate. Try it. Highly recommended!

    Located inside of the back of the Irving gas station/convenience market at the US 202/NH 119…read moreintersection in Rindge, Hiraeth Place opened in January 2025 and operates an open kitchen serving up a variety of signature grilled cheese sandwiches, hot pressed paninis, deli sandwiches/wraps, salads, & desserts. I stopped by Hiraeth Place very recently for takeout. I ordered two sandwiches to go including the French Onion Grilled Cheese ($7.50 plus tax) and a Pastrami Sandwich ($9 plus tax). Both sandwiches were prepared hot and fresh to order and ready to go in 7 minutes. I enjoyed my two hot pressed sandwiches out in the vehicle. The hot pressed French Onion Grilled Cheese had provolone, gruyere, caramelized onion jam between buttered slices of brioche. The sweet and savory flavors hit the mark. The hot pressed Pastrami Panini had thin slices of deli pastrami, dijon, gruyere, pickled onion between crisp slices of marble rye. This sandwich was also very good. I will definitely have to try some of their other hot sandwiches like their tuna melt, spicey boi grilled cheese, & buffalo chicken wrap on the next visit.

I am not positive if it is true but I thought I heard the server say they switched to Lunch at 11AM. I hope not as the wife and I like to eat breakfast all day long. We were seated at the one metal table. Next time we will request a picnic table. The chairs were king of high and my feet could not touch the ground.

Generally no complaints big place is always packed on the weekends for both seating and parking outside, likely a half hour wait depending on when you go. Food is good and comes out fast.

From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming and relaxed. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made me feel genuinely appreciated as a customer. The service at the deli counter was smooth and efficient, and it was clear the team takes pride in what they do. Everyone I interacted with was pleasant and professional, which really added to the experience. Checking out was just as easy, with a calm and courteous interaction that left a good impression. As for the food--exactly what I was hoping for. The sandwich was fresh, well put together, and made just the way I asked, and the cookie was a standout treat to go with it. You can tell care goes into both the ingredients and the preparation. The shop itself looked clean and well maintained, and overall it felt like a place that values both quality and customer experience. It's the kind of spot that makes a workday lunch feel like a small break you actually look forward to. I'll definitely be returning and recommending this place to others. With so many options around, it's refreshing to find a local deli that delivers good food, good service, and a genuinely welcoming environment.

Stopped in last week for the first time, wasn't greeted when I went in, waited 10 minutes at the deli counter for anyone to notice I was there. Then was greeted with the most disgusting attitude, almost like it was annoying to the staff that I was even inside the building. Then when I was checking out, the cashier lady didn't say a single word to me, nothing but glaring at me and attitude. I walked in with my work clothes on, maybe they just don't like blue collar workers. The cookie was good, not the best (burnt on the edges) and the sandwich looked like it was thrown together by a toddler, not to mention they didn't even put cheese on the sandwich when I clearly asked for cheddar. I won't be returning or recommending this place because why should I feel like a nuisance in a deli giving you my business. Plenty of other great spots in the area for a bite to eat. I'll also be calling a health inspector because the kitchen looked absolutely disgusting like it hadn't been cleaned all week. With all the businesses going out of business lately...you would think owners would take notice and make people feel welcome. Dirty, crappy attitudes and mediocre food. Definitely go here if you want to be completely dissatisfied.

    This place absolutely lives up to the hype!…read more We stopped in on the way to Burlington for southeastern Massachusetts. We actually even stopped on the way back. It was so good. Of course, we went for the mac & cheese. We were surprised at how much other stuff they had, like fresh, baked goods, a deli, prepared foods and an amazing dessert case! They have tables next-door at the store that you can sit out and eat your food out. It has cute little gifts and local food items that you can buy. We had the mac & cheese on the way up and on the way back, bought more mac & cheese, some kale slaw, and some fresh made deli sandwiches. My sandwich was great, my wife got tuna and I will say they could've added a little more for the price. The rancid was rancid so I actually threw it away and didn't get to try it. Everyone was great from the guy who checked us out to the Deli person who made our sandwiches. If this is on your way, definitely stop in, you won't be disappointed.

As I waited in line I enjoyed conversations with both the people in front and behind me whom all have never been before. The joy and excitement on their faces as they made their way to order was priceless. As for myself, a small mac to help start the new year strong for total lbs sold (81k in 2024) and a small pulled pork. Wanted to order some other things but my refrigerator is full at home, so another time. If this will be your first time, just be aware of parking could be very busy as there's not much. Both ways before pull out of parking spaces as well. Main road can be a cluster at times. I also recommend getting lots of little things rather than a little of a lot. You can always come back for more!

In Phnom Penh, Cambodia, it seemed the foods I ate were more pure and clean than the Americanized Vietnamese dishes I grew up with. The Phnom Penh restaurant and to-go shops serve food which tastes similar to Vietnamese to me. I really like the dishes I've tasted so far, including the fried rice. I did not yet try the pho, here, but it looks great. The sandwich shop is better to sit down in and relax in and enjoy your food. Also, their Khmer iced coffee is yum.
