THE LONG VIEW

JUST LIKE MOM'S
Bradford Junction Restaurant & Bakery, Bradford
Housed in a former train depot, this down-home eatery is a popular landing spot for locals, who feast on just-like-mom-made pot roast, chicken pot pies, and other comfort foods. Even better are the prices. A family of four can easily enjoy breakfast or lunch for under $25. Entrées: from $3.95. 2370 Route 114. 603-938-2424
"C" IS FOR COOKIE

ARCHITECTURAL ARTIFACTS

You don't have to be renovating a Victorian mansion to find something to obsess about here, where the inventory extends from brass doorknobs ($20 and up) to claw-footed bathtubs (from $250). Tannery Marketplace, 111 Saranac St. 603-444-1200; admacsalvage.com
