Customer Reviews

The best cider donuts I've ever had. Cute and charming. We'll have to come back to try the breakfast sandwiches.

The hype is real. These famous donuts have a culinary technique you won't find easily. The cook on the donuts was perfection. Outside had a nice lightly crisped texture while the inside was soft, crumbly, airy, and extremely tasteful. Best apple cider donuts I've ever had by far. I tried glazed, maple, and chocolate frosted. Frosting was tasty and not overly sugary. Glaze was my favorite, though. Highly recommend! The price for these donuts is higher than most places, but the quality is well worth the price

The best donuts in New England ??. It's worth a long drive and worth getting more than you think you'll need. The store itself has a huge assortment of other sweet treats and items, I plan on exploring more of those, but the donuts are what bring me there.

My favorite country store in NH. Small shop but they have amazing local goods, pottery, sandwiches, and of course homemade donuts. I stop here every time we drive past it for a dozen donuts.

Great dougnuts, and sandwiches, Don't believe There is indoor Seating

Such a cool old store! The people are extremely nice and the donuts are almost better! Will 100% be back

The donuts and staff are wonderful! My genuine only complaint is how uninviting the exterior is. I'll be back!

Heavenly donuts. Even the next day they were light in texture. Will make sure to stop every time I'm in the area.

Love the apple cider donuts, and the Reed's Jamaican ginger beer. Good sandwiches. Today they also have shepherd's pie

Charming with the highest of quality products available! Amazing dessert case!

They make great cider donuts.

Great fun to stop by and chat with the folks behind the counter. Great cider donuts too!

Came for the apple cider donuts, left with the apple cider donuts ......and a chocolate chip cookie. Both are hands down the best!

The doughnuts are so good here! I was impressed by the cheese selection too. I had no idea the store was going to feel fancy.

Amazing country store with the most delicious donuts!

Excellent apple cider donuts! Great service! I will definitely recommend this place to friends and family.

BEST BREAKFAST SANDWICHES I've ever had. The cider donuts are out of this world too. I try to come everyday for breakfast. It's super quick and the service is always smiling :)

Stopped in last Thursday morning around 830am, the cashier working the counter was the nicest person, her personality was friendly and genuine! It truly started my day off right having that interaction with her, nice people do still exist! Donuts are always spot on, and I tried out the strawberry and blue berry turnovers, the taste testers reported back that they were a win!

I drive by this store every morning and I would say to my best friend, we have to stop there sometime and try their apple cider donuts. We finally did and I absolutely love this place. Its got an old fashion look and feel the minute I stepped on the farmers porch I felt like I stepped back in time. When the only store was the general store for miles around and everyone would hang out there and gossip or just enjoy the company and the delicious donuts. I highly recommend stopping by this cute little country

Best cider donuts I?ve ever had, especially the maple glazed! We drive an hour to get our fix?totally worth it!

I was getting very hangry as we were on our way back home to Boston after spending a few days in this area. What a heaven sent place! Fresh, hot & delicious bacon/sausage egg and cheese on an English muffin with fresh delicious cider donuts! So happy we crossed paths with this country store. I even got some fresh eggs to take home!

Stopped in last week with my 2 granddaughters and got a half dozen of apple cider donuts and we were not disappointed. They were the best apple cider donuts I have ever had!

If you want the BEST cider donuts around you will take 10 minutes out of your day and go here. I pick up half a dozen everyday. Small family store with all scratch made products great donuts and fantastic milk.

Nice little country store with a relaxing atmosphere + friendly customer service. The apple cider donuts are delicious! They have some yummy fresh milk from local farms in the refrigerator. Great place to stop in when in the area.????

I'm not usually a donut eater, but these cider donuts, even the plain ones, are so, so, so delicious! They are freshly made on site and the outside of the donut is just the right amount of crispy, the inside is soft and so flavorful! The store is ute and quaint and makes you feel like you stepped back in time.

Great little country store with the best apple cider donuts I've had. I like these because they offer chocolate frosted, Maple nd not just the sugar and plain like I've had everywhere else. Local brewed coffee and the Chicken salad never dissappoints. I like to support local businesses and this one gets mine as often as possible. Building needs some help but it helps play into the country feeling, also probably an old building and one that big would be a project once started. Better to keep them open doing

The best apple cider donuts. They have plain, chocolate frosted , maple frosted, cinnamon sugar as well as plain sugar. They are well prepared for a variety of tastes. The store has an old country feel however it takes cards, so that you can stock up on all the home made goods without worrying about stopping at the ATM on the way up.

Most excellent place, calm, welcoming atmosphere. The donuts are irresistible, especially if still hot! But there's more, like breakfast & lunch menus along with prepared food like spinach pie, baked beans and more. Give it a try......you will like it, and add it to your favorites

O.M.G. the best apple cider doughnuts ever. The service was friendly, helpful and patient. They have an awesome selection of Root beers as well. I will definitely will be swinging through again next time I am in New Hampshire.

I love the donuts and food. First time this has happened here but hopefully they read this and change it. This morning 6/13/23 about 8:10 am. It?s really irritating when you feel like you?re an inconvenience to the person at the counter and when someone says ?thank?s a lot have a good day? the response shouldn?t be, ?Yup? the proper response is you too, or thank you. It?s absolutely incredible how far manners will get you in this life. Everyone makes mistakes and some people just don?t know what manners are

Nice country store. Good food, good people and great maple frosted donuts. I could eat a dozen myself. A nice cafe serving breakfast and lunch. Boar's Head deli meat. Small sit down counter and some tables. Also cube ice.

I?m not a huge fan of donuts but there were some of the best I?ve ever had.

This store is probably supposed to be on an Historic Register somehere. The building has been there for much long r than I've been alive. They are famous for Apple Cider Donuts but the do a lot more than that. It's non smoking. NOT REALLY handicap friendly, the front doors are too narrow for most chairs. Bit the breakfast sandwiches are very very good. The coffee is also top notch. They use only Boars Head cold cuts & they make a lot more than just Cider Donuts. Only 4-5 min north of the Epsom Circle on Rte

This is a real feel-good place. The staff are a very dedicated crew working hard to maintain the high standards that have made the Chichester Country Store what it is today. Known for their homemade doughnuts as well as their deli sandwiches, albeit a tad pricey, you will be glad you stopped in and sampled some of these New England favorites - done right.

Absolutely delicious!!! Love the atmosphere and service. We had plain and cinnamon apple cider donuts, bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich and a blueberry muffin. A Great New England Country Store!!???

Was looking for apple cider donuts and came across this gem on our road trip. Donuts were awesome (coffee was only okay). Although exterior looks a bit dated/run down, it's definitely worth the stop.

Employees were friendly. First time ordering subs so we got large. We could only eat half. Bread was fresh and sandwich was delicious??. I like the way the place is kept original. Good job ??

Good quality ingredients in their sandwiches. Great customer service. Known for their cider donuts. A very old d building. Just a few tables inside. I've only ordered takeout.

The doughnuts here - phenomenal. Five stars and then some. I want desperately to remove a star for service because it's so inconsistent, but there is one man there who makes me smile EVERY time. He is so kind and wonderful! Love this place.

The food it very good, great donuts and Boars Head meats. I just wish it was more consistent. With the turnover in staff sometimes you get bad service and a long wait, sometimes you are in and out in a timely manner. Even with this consideration it's still a frequent stop for my family.

The crispies are the absolute best. If I could have bought other bags (only two were left), I would have done it because their texture and taste are to die for?

I've searched New England, and I can say that hands-down Chichester Country Store has the best apple cider donuts around. Staff is always friendly and the breakfast sandwiches are amazing. Worth driving two states on a Sunday morning.

Wicked cute lil store. Selection of maple and apple donuts and other baked goods. Deli with great selection of hot and cold sandwiches and burgers. Small selection if unique drinks as well.

Great store first time in, breakfast sandwich ?? cider donuts?? chocolate milk??. I love these small town country stores. Always fresh local ingredients. This will me my Sunday morning breakfast spot.

We traveled to the Chichester Country Store to check out their donuts. They have very tasty apple cider donuts, appropriate for the coming Fall season (the donuts are also sold in Londonderry at Mack's Apples). In addition, they offer breakfast and lunch in a very authentic old country store atmosphere. Worth the trip!

Warm apple cider donuts, freshly made daily. The kids love going for breakfast, watching them make the donuts while sitting at the counter. Everything so fresh and everyone that works there is very friendly

We made this a snow day destination expecting a true Country Store experience based on reviews. It was not. We were greeted when we walked in by the young lady at the counter. It was fairly dark inside with the service counter to my right that had a case holding maybe 20 donuts, all cider. No muffins, no eclairs, not anything like the pictures on their FB page. A small counter was to my left that had 4 coffee servers and cups. As my friend got a hot a coffee, I walked a bit behind that counter and saw a few

Best apple cider donuts around!

Very good. Homemade maple donuts are our of this world! Cant wait for dinner to have the homemade spinach pita. I've had it before and it is the best !

Friendly staff. Great selection of apple cider donuts and fresh breakfast sandwiches.

Definition of small town hospitality and great food. The donuts and pastries are a must have. While the seating inside is very limited, the interior takes you back to when life was simple and great.

You wouldn't know from the vintage exterior (that desperately needs a paint job) that this little eatery is a real gem! It has become our go-to en route to Wolfeboro from i-393, concord, NH. This quick visit we had a grilled ham and cheese on delicious homemade crusty white bread and an equally delicious bit (with real meaty, generous bacon) on the same nicely toasted white. Big sandwiches at a fair price. Add to it a nice bottle of fresh whole chocolate milk from a dairy in north Haverhill NH. And a bag of

They have good coffee and donuts, as far as hot breakfast goes i paid 3.99 for 3 pieces of french toast and it didnt even come with syrup! They wanted to charge me $1 for syrup the size of McD's sauce cuplet. Who serves french toast with no syrup, yet it was on the receipt for pancake syrup. Here's a review for that experience since you need to be SO STINGY.

Great pre cooked breakfast sandwiches and amazing apple cider donuts. Great quick stop

The best cider donuts in the State of NH, cooked fresh every day, 360 days a year. Good coffee and sandwiches too. Lovely people in a charming, oldy timey store.

Their donuts were a huge success for my tool demonstration! Everyone raved!! I will be back ??

I really wasn't there that long but the place was very old and ancient looking from the outside. When we got inside it resembled almost the same as outside. The lady working the counter was very nice, overall it looks like a museum to our past. Nostalgic!

Perfect place. I got a t-shirt and the people were so nice and it was just so cute inside and the donuts smelled wonderful. Will go back again on our next trip up!

It was my first visit to this place. The items I needed, they had, so it was a successful trip. High quality products. Friendly, helpful employees. Saved me some time. I would've had to drive, more than double the distance, otherwise. So I was quite satisfied. ??????????

The donuts are very good. I like stopping at local stores when we go on vacations and this place was nice

Great place pick up lunch. Delicious subs made fresh to order. Home made donuts, cookies, cake slices and so much more.

What a lovely little cafe! So cute, so affordable, such great and friendly service...and not to mention, VERY delicious donuts. Will definitely return.

Got there 5 minutes before closing. Bought a cider donut and left. It was pretty good!

Best cider homemade donuts going to find anywhere. Sandwiches were great. Folks working there for very friendly.

Thank you for being so kind to my friend Fowler on his Ebike journey.

The breakfast is amazing. The apple cider donuts are so good and they stock a great assortment of local bottled soda.

Great donuts and great service. The coffee is also delicious. I enjoyed my experience here and couldn't recommend it more.

Bought a dozen donuts for my co-workers and a very large chocolate chip cookie for me. Delicious as always!

Great place, doughnuts awesome, other food products so good, great coffee

Cool little country store, not a super lot to offer but cool stuff and amazing one of a kind doughnuts

Great place for some local history and apple cider donuts. Well worth skipping Dunkin to try it at least once!

Best donuts around. You won't be disappointed.

Great food. Friendly staff. And an inviting country atmosphere. I love coming to this place for a quick breakfast or snack, everything tastes fresh.

Best sandwiches in town, always make me an amazing steak and cheese. Maple frosted donuts are also out of this world, check the place out

Amazing doughnuts, with a friendly inviting staff. I like the open concept so you can see how well maintained the kitchen area is!

Some of the best apple fritter doughnuts you'll eat! Good breakfast sandwiches, too.

Always a great nostalgic experience at the Chichester Country store! Great employees and amazing food! Their maple glazed donuts are the best!

Small local country store. New Hampshire charm. I love their breakfast sandwiches and there selection of goodies such as their cider donuts.

Great little general store! English muffin breakfast sandwiches and Apple cider donuts were AMAZING!

Wonderful place to come across while driving country road. Doughnuts were awesome too and so was the service.
