“Wonderful little coffee shop. We went in the off season and were grateful to find a place that made good espresso drinks, albeit a little milky (my doublecappucino was more like a latte). The eclectic shop reminds me of Nicholas coffee and tea in Pittsburgh, selling an array of things besides coffee and tea - Maine knicknacks, funny napkins, soap, jams and the like. There are good chocolates and pastries and sandwiches, which will sample next time. There are a handful of tables in back near the barrels of wonderful smelling coffee. We loved sipping our drinks here and looking around.“
“Just coffee, cakes and the staff, they are perfect. Many choices for coffee. No heavy food so when you walk in the smell is soooo gooood. With the coffee, just look for a cake and you are good to go. People are so gentle, polite, helpful. This is a relax place that we found. Love it.“
“Maine Coffee Roast is located inside an older brick industrial building near train tracks which adds to the charm of the business. The founder/owner, Holly, is one of the nicest and most talented people you'll ever meet, and a passionate and dedicated roaster. Each roast is like a newborn child to her. My husband loves the coffee and will now only buy local roasts. We stopped by today, a national holiday, but the retail store was closed. Holly saw us poking around outside and graciously let us inside. Monday is the day she fulfills wholesale orders and she offered to brew a cup for my husband, but we didn't want to distract from her work. It turns out that Maine Coffee Roast supplies the coffee to both Two Fat Cats, my all time favorite pie maker, and Sur Lie, where we just had dinner. The coffee is outstanding and if you are on the way to Portland, stop by and visit Maine Coffee Roast in Biddeford . BTW, Biddeford has some really cool retail and dining concepts!“
