The fire started outside the building but spread inside.
Firefighters were toned out to the North Conway Village business, located at 2709 White Mountain Highway, at about 7:21 p.m. Wednesday. The North Conway Fire Department arrived on scene about a minute after the tone, said North Conway fire chief Pat Preece. Preece said the fire was mostly contained about an hour later.
