About Harlow's Pub
|
|
|
|
What has to be the New Hampshire pub with the biggest crowd,
Harlow's is packed on Friday and Saturday nights with locals
enjoying great food, beer, wine, liquors, and music.
It's where you find the store keepers, politicians, writers,
farmers, artists and their friends hanging out in a lively
atmosphere of conversation and table hopping. In winter skiers
enter the picture, drawn by the cozy decor and dart board.

Located in a 19th century building, with every wall, nook and cranny covered
with memorabilia from a number of globes, beer paraphernalia, sculptures,
artwork, a piano, old books and magazine clippings to the bell hanging from
the ceiling for the last call and the poster advertising the "Wizard of Oz"
you get the feeling of a rich history of America, with a travel log expressed
through post cards and international currency. One recent Irish immigrant said
it's "the best pub this side of the Atlantic."

Owner Dave Szehi purchased Harlow's Cafe and Deli from Harlow Richardson.
Having worked there for a year, and after bugging him long enough, Richardson
agreed to sell the deli and cafe to Szehi in 1996. The next winter he remodeled
it into the pub that is loved by all today.

Recently leasing the space in the front of the building owned previously by the
Winged Pig, Dave completed renovations that tripled the seating size and provides
a stage for live music.

In typical Harlow's Pub style, the community responded
to the ongoing requests posted on the bulletin board and offered their time, talents,
money and useful items for the renovation.
Before living in New Hampshire for the last 11 years, Dave's home was in an "undisclosed location".
He attended Keene State college to pursue his love of art, film and animation. Following his
love of film, he interned with documentary film maker Ken Burns. To work with his hands, he
sculpted marionettes at the New England Marionette Theatre. He was the typical starving artist.
Now he works six days a week, 15 hours a day bringing his art and theatre experience alive at Harlow's.
Being surrounded by all this food, at least he's not starving anymore...
