‘Peace, love, and burgers’ is the motto at Lexie’s, and you’ll certainly receive a warm welcome at this homely diner. The original branch in Portsmouth (there are also locations in Epping, Dover, and Exeter, plus another in Newburyport, Massachusetts, which is open seasonally) is a favorite spot for burgers and thick, creamy shakes. The patties, which include veggie options, come loaded with various toppings or served plain, and customers love the simple yet delicious food – not to mention cute touches like crayons and paper for kids, and cookies with the check.
