Fans of the ubiquitous local bread will be pleased to visit the factory store and restaurant up in Kittery. Wood-fired pizza is only the tip of the iceberg at this fun spot, but start there — perhaps with this pineapple, capicola, and jalapeno pizza — before exploring other items, such as the jumbo chicken tenders or the warm Bavarian pretzel. Great beer list, too. Coming from Portsmouth? Take a car to When Pigs Fly; the highway gets in the way of walking.

About a 10-minute walk beyond Kittery’s Wallingford Square, Beach Pea Baking Company is part of a little cluster of food businesses along the highway that also includes Carl’s Meat Market, Golden Harvest Produce Market, and Terra Cotta Pasta Co. Try plenty of bread at Beach Pea, but don’t miss the cookies, particularly the double chocolate chunk. The gigantic cookie is chewy on the inside, crispy on the outside, and full of melting chocolate chunks throughout. Snag a spot at a picnic table out front and watch the world rush by.

This Wallingford Square cafe is known for its crullers, so eat one. Light, airy, and sweet, they’re the best form of doughnut. Keep an eye out for variations; the original flavor is usually accompanied by another option, such as chocolate. Grab a seat on the cozy patio if weather permits.

On research trips to Portsmouth and Kittery to compile and update this map and its associated guide, the Eater Boston team tries to avoid visiting venues more than once — too many places to try, too little time. The exception is the Wallingford Dram, which keeps pulling the team back on every visit, beckoning with its incredible cocktails, cozy vibe, and extraordinarily friendly staff. Try any cocktail on the menu; there’s no wrong choice here.

Nothing goes better with a flight of beer than a giant, soft, hot pretzel, and Earth Eagle absolutely delivers in this department. It’s the perfect complement to Earth Eagle’s funky beers that feature herbs and foraged ingredients.

This big sibling to the Franklin Oyster House is full of joyful tapas-style small plates that play around with traditional New England flavors and ingredients. The menu is priced to allow diners to try lots of different things; make sure the lacquered pork belly bites are one of those things. And might as well finish the meal with whoopie pie sliders.

Just like its big sibling in Boston, Row 34 in Portsmouth excels at all things seafood, particularly oysters and lobster rolls. Try the warm buttered version and of course some butterscotch pudding for dessert.

For when those 1:30 a.m. hot dog hunger pangs strike, Gilley’s has always been there and will always be there.

This whimsical shop, which feels a bit Harry Potter-esque, offers a full menu of sandwiches, savory and sweet crepes, espresso, and more, but it’s especially worth a visit in the ice cream department thanks to its elaborate sundaes (available in half and full portions) and shakes. Try the affogato-inspired sundae called the Olivier, pictured here, or the Thistle, a strawberry shake adorned with Pop Rocks and a Rice Krispies treat, diet be damned.

In a city with more of a beer focus, Latchkey is one of a small number of dedicated cocktail bars. Try a classic, like the Hemingway daiquiri, or a build-your-own Old Fashioned with numerous options. The speakeasy-inspired bar — which actually has entrances that are a bit hard to find, in the true spirit of a speakeasy — features a huge whiskey list and live entertainment.

The menu’s always changing here, but any seafood dish is a great option; try the squid ink ramen (pictured here) if it’s available. The chicken sandwich and an order of fries is always a good bet as well.

Macarons are wonderful. Ice cream is wonderful. Why not put them together? This downtown French cafe does just that, offering ice cream-filled macarons in a variety of flavors. Recipe for a good afternoon: Drink a glass of wine and use La Maison Navarre’s wifi while trying every flavor of macaron.

This funky burger joint boasts full service and booze (beer and wine only), as well as endlessly customizable burgers and dogs. Some days call for toppings galore, but sometimes it’s best to keep it simple with a plain hot dog and some truffle fries topped with parmesan. After eating here, head down the street to check out Liars Bench Beer Company.
