The majority of restaurants you visit are inspected by the New Hampshire Division of Public Health Services which is outlined on their website. They had provided a report that gave the results of their inspections throughout New Hampshire but, sadly, this report has been down since September 20th with no estimated time when it would be available again. Once their report is back online you will be able to view the results for your location. The balance of inspections are the responsibility of 15 self inspecting towns. It is interesting to note that there are a number of larger cities that are self inspecting including Portsmouth, Nashua and Concord. Because of this there is a significant amount of information that is not easily available to the public.
{Editors Note on 11/16/17: The state has a new online portal making the above referenced report information available again}
Therefore, earlier this year, we decided to contact the self inspecting towns where data was not available online in an attempt to provide the public with easier access. The good news is that we did hear back from everyone. What we found is that there are large differences in how each town provides this information. For some, they use paper and copies are available at their office or by mail while others are working towards making this data more readily available electronically. There are also resource issues and a few are ahead of the curve and already provide access online.
Below you will find a list of the self inspecting towns. When the data is accessible electronically, updates will be provided either by email or on the NH Restaurant Reviews facebook page. If you would like to be notified please visit and like us on our fan page.
