CJ's Penalty Box at the Kancamagus Motor Lodge on Route 112 in Lincoln is the area's only Sport's Bar.

Gordi's Fish & Steak House on Kancamagus Hwy in Lincoln is known for its great après ski. As with many establishments in the area you can spend the whole evening there as there's an excellent pub menu too. Try prime rib, lobster, fish, steak and throw in the salad bar to keep feeling healthy.

King's Corner Cafe at Depot Plaza in Lincoln has an expresso bar and gallery as well as a restaurant serving the best breakfast in town all day. It is a lively apres ski spot with comfort seating and wireless internet access.

Serious apres skiers will take a trip to the Woodstock Inn, home to the Woodstock Station (the town's original train station, now attached to the rear of the main inn) which serves a casual 148-item menu for lunch and dinner. Variety, hearty portions, and nightly entertainment have turned the Station into the locals' hot spot.

As if that's not enough, the Woodstock Inn Brewery is also on-premises. The seven-barrel brewing system offers six freshly brewed ales at all times. The attached Brewpub is a cosy room where locals and travellers socialize over pints, often watching the brewers at work perfecting their handcrafted ales, porters, and stouts.
