Black Trumpet Bistro is a two-story Bistro and wine bar in the heart of the historic old port of Portsmouth, New Hampshire in the United States. Both floors offer views of the Piscataqua River and the oft-photographed tugboats that still escort enormous tankers into the harbor.
The building that houses Black Trumpet Bistro claims historical significance for two reasons. Signatures on the hand-hewn beams in the wine bar from the early 19th century reveal the space?s original occupant, a ship?s chandlery that sold wares to the many colonial ships using the harbor. On a more contemporary historical note, the address 29 Ceres has hosted two of the most distinguished dining destinations the Seacoast area has ever seen, Blue Strawberry (1970-1996), and Lindbergh?s Crossing (1996-2007).
Our first floor dining room at Black Trumpet Bistro in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, offers a cozy, romantic setting with warm, unassuming service. The upstairs wine bar is a more intimate, convivial space enlivened by music, art and conversation.
The menu changes every six weeks to capitalize on the freshest seasonal ingredients. The wine list features a variety of unheralded gems that pair well with the bold flavors of Chef Mallett?s cuisine. Black Trumpet Bistro?s cuisine reflects the chef-owner?s culinary curiosity, drawing inspiration from the Mediterranean as well as the Americas. A typical menu may include influences from Spain, North Africa, Turkey and the Mexican heartland.
Black Trumpet Bistro's Wine Steward, Julian Armstrong, has worked closely with Chef Evan to pull together a broad and creative wine list. The selection offers something for everyone and compliments the menu beautifully
