Wife and I finally got around to trying their " famous " roast beef sandwiches today. We were not disapointed, they were excellent. We had beef w/sauce and mayo and a order of onion rings. The owner Dave introduced himself and made us feel welcome. For a quick fix they will be my go to when I'm on that side of the lake. Give em a try, you'll be happy happy happy!

I must have had the roast beef on an off day because it was very dry and severely lacking in flavor. Jon's will always be my roast beef default, but will give Lakeside another try.

I have tried their pizza and found it to be good, but it was absolutely identical to Gilford House of Pizza. Wonder if they are owned by the same folks?

I have tried their steak tip dinner and found the steak to be exceptionally delicious... by far my favorite. Really flavorful and tender and the portion size is generous.

Sounds like a decent place to eat, too bad they aren't within boating distance.

Someone might want to do Lakeside Famous Roast Beef a favor and let them know their business is not in good standing with the state; they need to file the current annual report due with the NH Secretary of State's office.

Also, according to the Secretary of State's office, there is no Gilford House of Pizza registered with their office, not now and not in the past 40 yrs or so.

This is probably the reason why there are three businesses eateries in the area has Lakeside in their name. The one who is registered can file a complaint with the state about the 'Lakeside' name. The state do a good job of not allowing businesses with similar names to operate with that name in the general area.

Yup, "Country Cookin' at Lakeside" isn't registered with the state either, not now and not in the past 40 yrs or so.

It's too bad; you start a business (without registering with the state) and build up name recognition over a number of years and then somebody else who actually takes the time to register properly can get you to change your name because they took the time to do it right and register. Some people don't get it.

Just because the name on the sign isnt registered with NH doesnt mean the business isnt registered. Many times when the state will not issue a name similar to another business they use a different name to incorporate such as ABC Corp and then use a dba for the name of the business to operate under. Perfectly legal, its done all the time. This is why you do not see the name on the sign in the state registry even though it is probably registerd. Also in order to collect NH food tax and issue payroll to employees in NH you must be registered.

Really? So for example I could have a company name of TPG Inc D/B/A The Woodshed, in, let's say, Meredith?

It's not perfectly legal and it is not done all the time, at least, not in this state. By state law, the name on the sign must be registered with the Secretary of State's (SOS) office since that is the name they are doing business under AND whatever business name is registered cannot be the same as a name currently registered in the SOS office.

This is a very simplified explanation: to use your example, ABC Corp. wants to register and wants to do business as XYZ Enterprises; BOTH of those names must be registered. If the name ABC is available, no problem. If XYZ Enterprises is already registered, then ABC cannot do business under that name, they will have to choose another d/b/a name.

Also, Dept. of Revenue Administration (DRA) is entirely separate from the SOS office. DRA will accept most any filings and taxes paid whether the business is registered with the SOS office or not.

Gourmand, if either or both of the names "TPG" or "The Woodshed" are already registered, then you would not be able to register them to use in Meredith or most anywhere else in NH. Of course, you all know "The Woodshed Restaurant" in Moultonborough is registered in the SOS office; it is owned by JAMS Management LLC.
