5 Best Bakeries near Augusta

“There are so many reasons I love Sunrise. For starters, there’s the great food, but it’s so much more than that. This is a local business that seriously and genuinely invests in its community and THAT is why it will be here for a really long time. I’m convinced it will be a “generational business” that will be in the Central Maine business landscape for YEARS. The creative menu and excellent customer service are 2/3rds of the success - the community heart is the secret ingredient ❤️“

“Stopped in for lunch while passing through. Creative bagel choices (Fruity Pebbles, lemon bar, honey rosemary, to name a few). Great, patient service (so many chouces!). Super clean, great location! 😋“

“Superb place for breakfast for the family. We found ourselves in Augusta during a family visit to Maine. Our hotel did not offer much for breakfast, so we looked for alternatives. Based on some reviews we decided on Bagel Mainea, and we were so glad we went. I had a blueberry bagel with cream cheese, and my wife and sons had breakfast bagels on salt bagels. We really enjoyed them, so much so that my son bought another half dozen bagels to take best to Boston. They also have really great coffee. It you are in the area, suggest you stop in.“

“Traveling through Maine from Ohio. Saw Slates mentioned in a Maine tourist magazine. Met friends here and were totally impressed with the special menu. Our waiter, Michael, was the BEST. He shared with us the story of how the restaurant began and other interesting background information. The food was delicious. If we were going to be in the area longer we would definitely make it there again.“

“I live in Wichita Kansas. No one here knows what a Woopie pie is. I am from Mass and my niece sent me 1 dozen of these pies from Gardiner Me and she lives in Maine. I had two pies with milk. I am in heaven. They were great tasting. Recommend for everyone.“
