Limited bra - panty selection & not worth stopping by. If you must go, find it in the same parking lot of Mickey D's on US-1 (Kittery)
Good NE clam chowda, cole slaw, & lobsta roll: 1/4 or 1/2 lb whole, fresh lobsta meat. Stars: scallops (brushed w/ wine b4 fryin) & lobster stew (watery version of lobster bisque w/ chunks of lobsta).
Best damn dogs in New England. Ask for your dogs done "Flo's Way" - with barbecue sauce, mayo and celery salt.
No frills shack. Chowda’s watery & oily but full of fish, clams & potato..better w/ crackers added. Get 1 of NE’s best Crab or Double (1/2 lb good for 2) Lobster rolls on perfectly buttered split-tops
Located in Perkins Cove w/ lovely views. OK Dry, low-fat Cole Slaw w/o mayo or too much vinegar. Didn’t get a chance to try their talked-about potato salad but Corn (from FL) on the Cob was good.
Great fresh baked goods. Loved the blueberry muffin and strawberry scone. Lots of fresh fruit.
Breakfast sandwiches are to die for! Definitely get the sundried tomato spread on it
Nice outdoor seating on patio to the right of shop, great coffee and pastries. Refrigerated sandwiches aren't the best but a decent snack if you're in a hurry. Overall, awesome spot for coffee in OGT
Good NE clam chowda, cole slaw & lobster roll (1/4 or 1/2 lb meat). Stars are fried scallops, onion rings & lobster stew (more watery lobster bisque w/ tons of meat). Trying Strawberry cake next time
Fried onion rings + (fresh, huge) fried scallops are some of the best I've had in Maine!
Famous fried "whole-belly" clams, fries, & perfectly boiled-in-fresh-sea-water 1 lb lobster (w/ Lay's chips) for $12.99! Ask 4 female, if u love roe! Ok crab meat rolls & lobster rolls. Expect waits!
Blueberry ice cream was decent, especially for a 2-for-1 ice cream deal from Clam Shack. Note: coupon map was inaccurate. Store front is on Ocean Ave across the street from Ben & Jerry's.
Creative but not necessarily the most kid-friendly, traditional flavors. Get the red wine sorbet & strawberry basil ice cream!
Average 15-hole mini-golf for $8/adult but awesome ice cream shop run by same family for ~30 yrs! Love the Frozen Pudding (rum raisin ice cream w/ bits of dried fruit) & the Red Raspberry Swirl. ;9
Roadside shack w/ 1 of the freshest (& sweet meat) crab rolls I've had so far! And LOVE female lobsters -w/ smaller middle feelers- for ROE (orangy-red when cooked)!
~$80 /carton for VS Ultra Menthol Slims & in a tiny strip mall next to Bookstop which is a great book, greeting card & CD / Vinyl store.
The BIGGEST Bull Moose of them all! Mind-blowing selection of new & used music...you'll need weeks to go through everything! They have a book section too.
Great brunch/comfort food: Arnold Palmer, fried green tomatoes, gumbo+Waffle plate: over-easy eggs w/ bacon & regular syrup ($2 extra for Maine maple syrup) + a side of 2 sausage links ($3.50 extra)!
Voted BEST Furniture, Vintage & Antiques store by “100 Best of Portland” 2013-2017Only open Fri 12-6, Sat 10-6 & Sun 10-5
Loved our stay last yr here & coming back again for the proximity to downtown Portland & harbour shops, bars & restaurants. Shuttle service around town is an added perk! :)
Maybe I've been spoiled by the many great sushi joints (eg. Yasuda, Gari, 15 East, etc) in NYC but I wasn't wow'ed here. "Creative" rolls & dishes were overly-mayo'ed or sauced + there was no uni.
More of a traditional Maine lobster roll. For DT Portland, it’s decent but pales in comparison to the MANY great 1's @ roadside lobster shacks outside town, where you'll get more bang for your $!
Lobster Bisque has lumps & not enuff sherry. Crabmeat Roll wasn’t fresh. Thanks MLS for taking it off our bill & comp'ing us a lobster roll, to make amends. But best NE seafood is still outside town!
If ur salt-sensitive, Tot-tines aren’t 4 U but tots (alone) are g8! Come EARLY, if U don’t want LONG waits, drunken 20-smthg’s & fights breaking out. Tonite, chef stopped cooking 2x to escort ppl out
A recommendation from a beer lover friend. Not too hard to find but had an underground feel. Great outdoor space & beer list w/ Belgians. Not my fave since I’m a cocktail gal & they have none. :(
My go-to for jewelry whenever I visit Portland, ME! Good selection of stylish, vintage, estate, + costume jewelry @ affordable prices & w/ attentive staff & service!
OMG-fresh, light & un-greasy tasting Holy Donuts: Blueberry, Coconut, Triple Berry, & Coffee Brandy-made w/ Maine potatoes, pure cane sugar, unbleached flour, fruit juices & dark Belgian chocolate
Get house-made curried ckn salad sammie Tokyo P: perfect mix of tangy & spicy ckn salad w/ raisins, spinach & provolone (but better if bit more filling) all wrapped in a thin & toasted pita.
If ur salt-sensitive, place is NOT for U! Fry bread & Uni Butter, Lobster Toast, Pork & Crab Mee Goreng & Wonton Noodle Soup all inedibly salty, overpriced & none captured flavors of SE Asian dishes!
My fave shack w/ outdr seating & view of Casco Bay. Super fresh & cheap: fried scallops, crab+lobster rolls, lobsters right off boat! Clam Chowda's full of clams. + BEST blueberry ice cream ever! ;9
Follow painted lobsters to Lobster Pound (only 4 steamed lobsters, clams & soups). Skip Soups-watery & lacking in taste. Great steamed Littlenecks + lobsters but wish U got ur pick of M or F lobster.
Pricier but worth it! Came bk 2x in 1 trip 4 nice S. Freeport H2Ofront views & lobsta, crab & scallop rolls + great steamed Littlenecks + lobsters. Skip soups, fries & slaw. Best ONION Rings+MIDDLES!
Blueberry & Rum Raisin lovers rejoice...THE BEST homemade ice cream I’ve ever had (IMHO as a world-traveled NYC gal)! A 5-star MUST-TRY if you're in the area! Cute village by the sea too. :)
Known for their #1 of Maine-style lobster roll (w/ 1 WHOLE lobster), this roadside shack in Wiscasset (right before crossing bridge E to Edgecomb) can't be missed..1-hr long line just to order!
#1 of Maine-style lobster roll (w/ 1 WHOLE lobster)! 2nd fave: Grilled Haddock sandwich. Scallops were very fresh & onion rings ok..except batter was too thick. Mayoey crab roll w/ lotsa meat.
Pricier tourist trap w/ nicest H2Oront view in Bar Harbour! Must try: Clam chowder - more NE (Boston-style) than Maine-style. Crab roll was meaty but drowned in lotsa mayo. Fries were frm a frozen bag
My fave pot shop in South Portland, Maine
