History

The core of the Lamie's building is a home that was built in 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 in to 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 compliment to the Lamie's Inn tradition of excellence.
