Surf & Turf
To beach or not to beach?
Surf & Turf
Our food favs, seafood & not!
A MUST. No doubt about it. Get there early or there may be a line. No bad doughnuts and don't sleep on the bfast sandwiches.
Congdon's Doughnuts
Delectable. I love the steak tips personally but all their cuts are fabulous. The mashed potatoes are on another level too.
The Steakhouse
The fried lobster tail… For my gardeners, grab the Backwoods inspired merch.
The Highroller Lobster Co.
So many interesting combos but a nice balance of the classics too.
Mount Desert Island Ice Cream
A fun, family spot. Choose your lobster, they'll steam it! Don't forget your napkins.
Chauncey Creek Lobster Pier
The lobster bao buns and the Katsudon Donburi rice bowls are my personal favs
Pai Men Miyake
Nothing better than a Maine raw bar. Those & their rotating chips and dip!
The Shop by Island Creek Oysters - Portland
Their blueberry pancakes, duh.
Becky's Diner
Press ya pennies here! They were also featured on ‘Diners, Drive-In’s and Dives"!
Maine Diner and Gift Shop
