Fried chicken comes in spectacular form at the Friendly Toast. Part of their chicken and waffles selection, deep fried chicken thighs sit atop a bed of mashed sweet potatoes with waffle wedges, and are topped with honey, maple sour cream and scallions. Yum!

Newick's Lobster House, Dover & Concord, NH

You won’t find better fried fish than you’ll eat at Newick’s Lobster House. Perfectly battered and fried so the delicate fish taste shines through, you’ll eat to your heart’s content because the portions are ample. The service is top-notch, too.

People say they love BRGR Bar for their amazing burgers—and it’s likely they do. But BRGR Bar also serves the most amazing fries you’ll find in the Seacoast region. Crispy and flavorful, delicately seasoned, you’ll be hard-pressed to not wish they were your main course. Their truffle fries are nothing short of elegant. Order a side of both and see which are your new favorites.

Makris Lobster & Steak House, Concord, NH

There’s an appetizer at Makris Lobster & Steak House that serves customers some fried food perfection. Southwest egg rolls are filled with veggies, black beans and chicken, and then deep fried. When dipped in sweet & sour sauce or Cajun ranch dressing, it’s an explosion of flavor you won’t soon forget.

The Subarashii at Street deserves a fried food mention. Another take on French fries, theirs are spicy and amazing. Sprinkled with an Asian chili spice blend, these fries are slathered with scallion mayo and served with kimchee ketchup for dipping. These are the perfect fries for a late-night snack, and they pair perfectly with your favorite beer.

Fat Dog Kitchen, Dover, NH

Fat Dog Kitchen gives a southern tradition new life. They serve genuine fried tomatoes—wait for it—on their BLTs! This is a fried food lover’s dream come true. You get bacon and fried food on the very same sandwich. Green tomatoes are breaded and fried, and then combined with bacon and lettuce on plain or toasted bread. Slather it with mayo, and it’s nothing short of exquisite! But don’t count on eating this for dinner, since they’re only open for breakfast and lunch. Lunch—and the Fried Green Tomato BLT is only available after 11 a.m.
