From Manchester the consulate general in Boston is 55 miles away, which a routing engine puts at 1 h 15 min without traffic.
Manchester is in Hillsborough County.
New Hampshire has honorary consuls at Portland, ME. They handle local questions and forward documents, and none of them is listed as able to take passport applications.
The same question, answered for other New Hampshire cities: Concord (71 mi), Nashua (41 mi).

What you can settle without travelling
Some of this does not need the consulate at all.
- Track a passport that is already in progress: it is printed in Berlin and the six to eight weeks are set there, not at the counter that took your application
- Order copies of German civil records for a citizenship file: those come from German municipalities by post, and they are the slowest part of any descent case
- Order a German birth, marriage or death certificate: the registry office of the German town where it happened issues it, and most of them take an online or postal request
