Super Secret Ice Cream (Bethlehem, NH)
One of the things I like to follow in the world of Restaurants is the annual James Beard Awards, seeing which chefs and restaurants, especially in New England, are getting recognized. I’ll be honest, New Hampshire usually doesn’t get a lot of nominations (Vermont and Maine definitely do better in this respect), so when a NH place gets to the semi-finalist or finalist list multiple years in a row, I know that place is worth checking out. In this case, it was in the “Outstanding Bakery” category, and unlike the usual pastry shops and bread bakeries, this one was an ice cream place: Bethlehem’s Super Secret Ice Cream, who was a semi-finalist in 2024, and a finalist in 2025.
