Founded in 2019 and nestled along the

New Hampshire Seacoast, 18 Miles stands as a

distinctive hospitality group that embodies a commitment

to community, tradition, and genuine experiences. With two unique restaurants and a quaint seasonal rental, 18 Miles has become a beacon of local charm in an industry often dominated by commercial enterprises. The group's mission is not just to serve exceptional cuisine and provide unique accommodations but to weave itself into the fabric of the community, celebrating and preserving local traditions. In an era where hospitality often leans towards mass appeal, 18 Miles proudly stands as a testament to the idea that true hospitality is a celebration of locality and a commitment to authenticity.

Beyond its culinary and accommodation offerings, 18 Miles extends its expertise through branding and consulting services. This unique approach reflects the group's understanding that hospitality is not just about the physical spaces it occupies but about crafting memorable and meaningful experiences. By supporting and promoting local coastal towns, 18 Miles fosters a sense of connection, not just between patrons and their establishments, but between the community and the very essence of the New Hampshire Seacoast. In every venture, 18 Miles strives to be more than a hospitality group; it aims to be a steward of the region's identity, preserving and promoting the very reason we all love the New Hampshire Seacoast.

our APPROACH

Our approach to

business is deeply rooted in a

passion for revitalizing old businesses and

restoring the heart of community spaces. We have

made it our mission to not just run restaurants and rentals,

but to weave ourselves into the fabric of the community by celebrating

and preserving local hangouts, hiring local kids to run the joints, breathing new life into cherished spots, and creating immersive, fun environments that make every visit feel like a vacation. When you step into our spots, it's not just a dining experience – it's like a mini-vacay right in your hometown. We want you to feel that staycation buzz, where every visit is a fun and immersive escape.

Our commitment goes beyond the plate; it extends to the very essence of the community we serve. By restoring old businesses, we aim to evoke a sense of nostalgia and pride, providing locals with a renewed connection to their favorite spots. Our branding and consulting services are a natural extension of this commitment, as we believe in sharing our expertise to help others contribute to the vibrancy of their own communities. So, think of 18 Miles as your friendly neighborhood hospitality crew, here to make every day like a mini vacation.

Picture this: you’re lounging beachside on the Amalfi coast of Italy. A cold spritz in one hand, a delicious slice of Neopotin pizza in the other. Dang that sounds nice. While we can’t offer you a paid Italian vacation for work, we can offer the next best thing, Pizza Lidos! An authentic Italian pizza shop located at the beach.
