I think that the clientele contribute to the noise issue.
In NH there are many older people.
Old people don't hear well.
Not realizing that they are doing so, they talk louder.
Their intended listener cannot hear well so they talk LOUDER.
Now add in a full dining room full of LOUD TALKERS, all competing to get their point across above the rising din.
Throw in a couple of drinks which makes EVERYTHING FUNNY and you get boisterous laughter.
Pity the servers that are getting industrial level noise while waiting tables!
