Local, Natural and Delicious Food.

One of the Seacoast's most unique restaurants.

The Stone Church on Zion Hill is committed to serving the freshest, local, organic food available. We believe it's vital to support our local Seacoast community and we do this by getting as much of the great organic food that we serve as possible from local farmers and growers. We even host the Newmarket Farmer's Market in the Stone Church parking lot.

Our menu includes quality, unique food that is accessible and tasty. In short, the Stone Church menu goes great with our selection of microbrews and presents a funky twist on traditional American pub food. Delicious, local and a few things you've never seen before.

The Stone Church will open its doors, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m., for brunch on Sundays.

Come for dinner, 4 p.m. - 10 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 1 p.m. - 10 p.m. on Sundays.

Please come visit us for dinner seven days a week until 10 p.m. or for Gospel brunch on Sundays. Don't forget to come support some of our local growers at the Newmarket Farmer's Market in the Stone Church parking lot on Saturdays at 9 a.m. And don't be afraid to stop on by for brunch and some great entertainment afterwards!

The Divine Stone Church.

A live music mecca.

The Stone Church was built in 1832 as a Universalist Meeting House but became a mecca for live music on the Seacoast in 1969 when it became a music club. Since then, the Church has showcased the talents of both up-and-coming and established musicians, providing an ambience and intimacy rarely found in live music venues.

The Stone Church is one of the most unique places to see a live show in the Seacoast, NH Area. Indeed, The Church's legend is known throughout New England as an unforgettable place to both play and to hear live music. With such a privileged tradition of music and energy, the Church is humbled to continue operating as a trustee, if you will, of a one-of-a-kind energetic, musical vibe.

We are committed to keeping the spirit of The Stone Church alive bringing together music and people over quality food and drink, providing local, fresh, organic products and regional brews. So join us for a pint and a night of music. Take part in the legend that is The Stone Church.
