About Us

The core of the Lamie’s building is a home that was built in approximately 1740, according to historical records. In 1760, the building was acquired by the Lane family, benefactors of the town of Hampton, and remained in their family for four generations. In 1928, Albert and Madeline Lamie purchased the property and converted it into a restaurant and tavern. The house, which had faced Exeter Road, was lifted and rotated to face Lafayette Road. Underneath it were constructed the kitchen and dining facilities, which form the basis for the restaurant and tavern to this day. The Dunfey family purchased the property in 1954 and soon after, added the colonial style rooms of the Inn. Lamie’s Inn and Tavern became known nationally, and internationally, for its fine New England food, warm hospitality and friendly atmosphere.

 Today, Lamie’s continues as a family-run business. The Higgins family purchased the property as a home for their popular restaurant, The Old Salt, after the original location on Hampton Beach was destroyed by fire. The Old Salt’s reputation for quality and warmth is the perfect complement to the Lamie’s Inn tradition of excellence. While you're here, don't miss the Old Salt! We're a family run restaurant specializing in fresh local seafood but we also have an extensive steak, sandwich and appetizer menu. In the summer, we are one of the most popular spots in Hampton with live music every Friday & Saturday night. During the rest of the year, the atmosphere is more relaxing, and the locals return. It's a great time to enjoy the natural beauty of the seacoast!
