“I ordered a cake for my 70th Birthday. It was not only beautiful but was so good I heard angels sing! Olivia had my cake ready despite having lost power for several days due to a recent storm. She is so creative and her cakes really stand out. Would highly recommend Toots!”
“We love it here so much. One of our favorite places to stop when we visit Maine. This time we came in February with the toddler and dog, sat outside under heated lamps with no one else around. We were sooo warm and it was 30 degrees! It was a full house inside for trivia. Pizza and salad came up incredibly fast and was to die for. It’s my husbands favorite beer. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. They literally know how to do it all.”
“Food was superb. Atmosphere inviting, service right on point. Mushroom dish was out of this world. Same for the carrots and lentils. Also the short rib pasta. So, everything we ordered.”
“We are here a couple years ago and still talk about it. It was genuinely the best food I've ever eaten in my life. We want to travel back to Freeport just to eat at Lily's food cart. We loved it so much we went back again the next day.”
“I went recently for Sunday Brunch with a group of 6. We had reservations and they sat us immediately upon arrival. We were sat in the outside seating area which was nice and cozy. Despite it being winter, they have the outdoor area tented off with multiple outdoor heaters. It's nice because it's bright and the daylight comes through. The food didn't blow me away, it was really good, but not mind blowing. I'd definitely return if invited but wouldn't drive out of my way to get brunch. I had the French toast with blueberry compote and it was ok. We received the Sweater Weather drink (in error) and it was probably the best tasting thing on the menu! I highly recommend it. The coffee gets 10 stars. One of the most delicious cups of coffee I've had in a long time.”
“A fine small cafe, perfect for an early morning breakfast or lunch with friends. My daughter and I had a relaxed meal here in a sunny window table. I enjoyed a Cubano sandwich on baguette, a bit spicy but delicious. Plenty of choices for food and drinks. Very pleasant young woman at the counter. Clean restroom.”
“Wanderlust goes the extra mile!I have a peanut allergy and they were so accommodating. Not only did they modify their menu to adapt to my allergies but they also have a dedicated no nut blender, and made sure to wash their hands before and after!The smoothie was one of the best I've ever had and the staff (owner?) Were so patient while I selected it and explained my allergies.10/10 experience and very reasonably priced for the quality and service.”
“If you’re thinking about it… just make a reservation and go — you won’t regret it.Wander at LongWoods is a magical place that embodies the spirit of Maine. We visited during the winter and had the most wonderful dining experience, so much so that we are already planning our next visit for the summer. I can’t wait to sit outside and enjoy everything this place has to offer.Located inside LongWoods preserve, with miles of trails and even a farm, Wander is all about sustainability, local ingredients, and an authentic farm-to-table experience. From the moment we drove into the preserve, the beautiful exterior of the restaurant took us aback. You can tell that much thought and energy went into this project. It was love at first sight as soon as we walked inside for dinner. The dimly lit ambiance, the decor, the vintage photos hung around, the bar… it was all perfect! It was barn meets fine dining without it being too pretentious.Sharing plates is the way to go at Wander! We started with the Tagliatelle (lamb, fennel, leek, parmesan), and I am still thinking about it. It was the perfect pasta, one of the best I’ve ever had. We tried their wood-fired pizzas as well — which was risky because my partner doesn’t even like thin-style pizza too much — but he loved theirs. We had the Terrace (red base, organic tomatoes, mozzarella, sweet Italian sausage, hot cherry peppers, shallots) and the Grandma (white base, mozzarella, parmesan, pecorino, San Marzano tomatoes, basil, parsley) and both were incredible. The grandma was herby, with lots of parsley and a lemony taste, while the terrace was spicy, so avoid it if you don’t like it hot!We accompanied our dinner with a bottle of Bordeaux, which was just delicious. It was the perfect pairing for our pasta and pizza. My one constructive suggestion for Wander is to expand their wine list in terms of prices! The cheapest bottle on the menu was around $45-50. That felt a bit odd, given that the pizza and the rest of the menu are priced reasonably.Moving onto desserts… I think this was the highlight of the night. The banana bread pudding was to die for! I’ve never tried such good banana bread pudding. The vanilla cheesecake was also quite yummy. It was hard to pick a favorite, but I’ll have to go with the banana bread. I can’t wait to come back and try the rest!Wander: thank you for a fantastic dinner experience.”
“Awesome experience at the Freeport Oyster Bar tonight! The bar tender, Sarah, was great at making sure we had everything we needed. We tried a bunch of the “Share” items. The menu was well curated from local vendors and we had a ton of fun with this menu. Get a bunch of oysters, drink some local beer, and eat local food! We will be back!”
“BEST ONION RINGS!I love onion rings and think Harmon’s serves the best in Cumberland County. Their burgers are good, too, but I’d definitely order the double patty. Take out only. Picnic tables on site.Kid-friendliness: A great family spot because it’s inexpensive, and they offer food the whole family loves!”
“We stopped by for the first time and had a delicious lunch! The turkey red pepper wrap (with delicious sauce!) was so tasty, satisfying and filling! The sides were just as delicious (the dill pasta salad?! Incredible.)! We also took home a sourdough baguette and it was gone before we even started dinner! We will definitely be back and we can’t wait to try the other items! :)”
“Delicious homemade ice cream and wicked friendly shop workers and owners. Quaint indoor seating with a large social area for functions. We'll be back. Often.”
“Nice atmosphere and good coffee. Great selection of flavors and they have a few different roasts available. One of the coolest things is that they have coffee ice cubes for their ice drinks!”
“This was my first visit . It's a nice clean restaurant and seafood market that doesn't smell like one. The employees are friendly and helpful . Before visiting I did call because I was unsure if they had a place to eat in . My guest had coffee and they said it was great ! We both ordered combination plates of haddock and scallops with onion rings . We were served ice water when we were sat. That was nice . They had premium quality napkins and plastic cutlery . The haddock was amazing ! Along with the onion rings ! Perfect ! The scallops were huge ! But very wet so they were not crispy . I asked . So I was hoping to get bacon wrapped scallops or a lobster dinner which was not on the menu . They do sell live lobsters in tanks . Although the breading didn't have much flavor the oil they used tasted very clean . No after taste . We ordered a cup of seafood chowder to try but we're too full. Would liked to have seen more onion rings for the up charge as they were delish ! I will be back for sure ! Next time I'll try the steamed lobster dinner or the Maine man lobster roll ! Blueberry habanero sauce ! Yum ! Ps I'd prefer tartar sauce in individual cups instead of large squeeze bottles used over and over. On table room temp then in fridge then out and in . Mayo spoils . That would probably be the biggest complaint and other places do it as well. My guest said the pickles were good !”
“Based on the name, I thought this was just a cafe (just serving some coffee and pastries) but it turns out it’s a good ol’ fashion Maine diner. I’ll definitely be coming back!”
“Food is delicious and the atmosphere is perfect for meeting up with friends or entertaining tiny children. Chef Toni’s to go meals and catering are perfect to freeze and have on hand and have been our go to gift to many a friend or family member who could benefit from some food love.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian Frittatas, sandwiches, soups, Mac and cheese and baked goodsDietary restrictions: Gluten free, dairy free and vegetarian optionsParking: Large free lotKid-friendliness: Plenty of space to explore and giant globe to check out, occasionally kids ice cream stand to play withWheelchair accessibility: No stairs, flat surface entrance with automatic door openers”
“It was an absolute delight to have lunch here. The waitress was so friendly and helpful. And everything tasted amazing.Kid-friendliness: The waitress suggested a couple options for my 2 year old and was very willing to make slight changes to menu items to accommodate them.”
“The Gotch chicken sandwich is always amazing. Great to-go boxing!Parking: Street parking adjacent to the location and plentiful with a short walk on main street.Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly! Milkshakes for the kids and a retro vibe!Wheelchair accessibility: Yes”
“Wonderful food great taste with great value and a home cooked feel to every meal. The owner is outstanding, such a wonderful and welcoming attitude I leave already happier without even digging into my food. Will continue to support.”
“Beautiful dining experience with great service. Unfortunately, they ran out of the plate I had chosen to order. However, my second choice was very good. With all that said, it was a little pricey. At the price point, there are some better options, including their other restaurants.”
“I love the people, atmosphere, menu, and beer here. Top 3 Greater Portland breweries in my book. Half pours (8oz) make it easy to sample the goods. Afternoons are so chill for meeting friends and the kids, playing a game or two and just kicking back. My 14 year old said "This is the kind of food that makes you want to ignore your brain telling you that your stomach is full so you can keep eating".”
“My friend and I went for lunch the other day. Interesting menu with combined ingredients that are put together so well. First time there but will definitely be back.Parking: No issue parking”
“Came in again because I LOVED the duck I had here months ago. Ordered: duck wings: small portion for the price but they were indeed fall of the bone tender, crispy, and smothered in a sweet and savory sauce beef poutine: the cheese curds had melted into puddles but the side ate like a hearty meal, good portion of beef, though fries were just okay double cheeseburger: piled high and juicy but again, just okay Overall I'll still be back supporting the restaurant that has served me some of the best bites of food, but I'll be focused more on their duck or special new items. Check them out on IG for their specials!”
“Amazing experience. We visited from MD, got there early, before opening, and the owner welcomed us in and we had a great time. The beer was delicious, the tuna wrap was awesome (far exceeded expectations). The atmosphere was great, owner was awesome, and staff were pleasant and accommodating.”
“We came in the other day for a coffee and to relax. The coffee was excellent and the service was friendly and helpful.One of our favorite things is that they have unique coffee mugs that adds an eccentric touch.We will come here again.”
“Amazing beers and classic bar food. They have burgers now including the brunch burger that they call the hangover egg and bacon on a burger amazing!!! If I could give them 10 stars I certainly would. I cant wait to come back and have it again.”
“We went yesterday (Dec. 16) our first time and loved that place especially Kozeta! I am deaf myself and had my alert (service) dog with me and she was very welcoming. The pizza and spaghetti was good! We’ll be back!”
“When in the area, I stop in and get a hot cup of coffee and a pastry. I reside over an hour away, and the European Bakery & Tearoom is always on my itinerary when I'm in the Portland area!”
“Never had frozen custard before. It was so good! We found it as we were driving through. My kids got the traditional flavor of vanilla and chocolate and I got maple blueberry. It was very yummy! And the portions are big! They had many traditional and also unique flavor choices. Will definitely give your kids that sugar high!”
“The food was very creative and delicious. Using Scandinavian basics in an unusual way. A bit expensive but nice for something different. Our waiter was very friendly too.”
