Review:
Dating back to 1867, The Franklin Oyster House in Portsmouth is a contemporary tavern and oyster bar that has been serving fresh oysters and seafood for over 150 years. The historic tavern serves seasonal, progressive menus of seafood-centric tapas, house-made charcuterie, fresh vegetarian plates, and a variety of locally-harvested oysters, along with handcrafted cocktails, fine wines, craft beers, and top-shelf spirits. Signature dishes include baked oysters with a BBQ flavor, whale cakes, spice-rubbed shrimp, and pineapple and crab meat, and the full-service bar offers new twists on cocktails such as A Smoke and A Pancake.
