Crazy to think there used to be a back patio behind the Dinnerhorn before the Bratskellar was ever built. I love our sunsets on the marsh 🫶 we even have a new drink named after them.

Happy Birthday Chris! I knew him as papou, but at the Dinnerhorn and Bratskellar he was known lovingly as Papa Chris. Working in this restaurant, I’ve heard a lot of stories about him from customers and people that used to work here. He had a nickname for everyone, and everyone has a story about him.

He was from the village of Stomion in Greece. A merchant marine out at sea, he was on his way to New York when Greece was invaded by the N***s. With no country to go back to, the Americans took him in and trained him as a paratrooper with the 542nd Parachute Infantry Battalion in Colorado. The war ended during his training.

He went to New York. He found work at his uncle’s restaurant and lived in the Greek neighborhood of Astoria, Queens. It was during this time that he got to know my grandmother, a Greek from Dover. They had two children in New York, and then they moved north, and in 1959, with their in-laws, they opened this restaurant.

He would be 110 today.

A New Hampshire staple restaurant pairs with a New Hampshire staple brewery to make a little magic. 🤝 Brat Brü is everything you’ve ever needed when visiting one of the state’s most tried and true spots.

Months in the making and now it’s real. New Dinnerhorn menus are here.

Designed by Stephanie Peterson, A Portsmouth Original just like us, who grew up on this food. My photos and my sense of the place turned into something tangible. All shaped by a lifetime in this restaurant. Her perspective from the other side of the table.

We wanted you to be able to hold everything that makes this place home. Summer sunsets on the marsh, the glow from the fireplace on a cold NH winter night, our odd building, a lost Portsmouth that lives on in these walls, three generations of my family’s history. All your favorite foods are still here, made the way we’ve always made them. A few new ones too. Come see for yourself.

One of my favorite on the menu: Lemon Sole. I get it when I want something light, buttery, and delicate. I’d recommend it to anyone who loves citrus, or isn’t crazy about fish and wants something mild. This is probably one of the items I eat the most here. I hope you love it too!
