LCookster, so glad you’ll be up @ the lake for the fourth. Where on Tuftonboro Neck? Our place is on Winter Harbor Way so you are probably pretty close. In terms of grocery stores there are two in Wolfeboro. I am partial to DyVylders Farm Market. To get there you make the turn at the top Main Street between two gas stations. One is a Sunoco and I believe the other is a Citgo. DeVylder’s is on your left in a small strip mall of stores. Your other option is also close to the top of the Main Street Hill. When coming into town and heading toward Tuftonboro, Hunter’s IGA is on your right. Both are full service grocery stores but small. You just have to get used to them not being “Supermarkets” but I have never had a problem being able to get what I needed.

Since you will be in Tuftonboro, there is also a large stock convenience store @ 19 mile bay. To get there, you will take the Tuftonboro neck road as if you were returning to Wolfeboro, but instead of turning south on Rt. 109, you will turn North. (Left at the small white church). Follow 109 North for about 3 miles and the store is on your right. You will find just about anything you need in a pinch and it’s more convenient than running the whole way into town.

For fish markets, both grocery stores have fresh fish and lobsters. I have gotten very nice fish at both places. I would also highly suggest checking out the Wolfecatch fish market. They have fresh fish daily and I have always really enjoyed the stuff that I have gotten there. Wolfecatch is located @ 31 Bay Street in Wolfeboro. If you are coming from your place in Tuftonboro, you will make a left onto Mill Street just before getting into the heart of downtown Wolfeboro. Follow Mill Street to Bay Street and you will see signs. They also have a great waterfront restaurant.

For gourmet takeout, I am a little less familiar. Not too many places would be considered gourmet around the lake. If you are looking for a gourmet meal, you might want to check out the Woodshed restaurant. It is about 20 minutes north on Rt 109. For nice takeout salads and things like that, give the Full Belly Deli a try. They have nice salads and might do other catering type things. Hope this is all a help. Welcome to the Lake!!
