Andover is a town I often drive through in my travels. It’s a quiet and unassuming place known mainly for its rural character. It’s not quite a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it town but it’s also not a bustling metropolis either. I also can’t say I’ve personally heard too much about Andover being a dining destination, but if you love enjoying great food in a great atmosphere, you can find one of the best restaurants in New Hampshire here.

The Refinery in Andover was voted one of New Hampshire's best restaurants by readers of New Hampshire Magazine.
