Restaurants near Bailey Island

“The best food and the nicest staff! Their fried fish sandwich in particular is phenomenal but you really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, including their pie made from scratch. Also a big fan of the salt and vinny fries with their Old Bay aioli.”

“Outdoor patio is not enclosed (but there are heaters). Not sure why they would allow reservations on a night when the temp in the single digits. They were able to get us a table inside within 10 minutes. Beer is good if you like bitter, hoppy beer (I don’t). Our pizza was great and we also ordered a pretzel. Service was fine. Would come back for the pizza. Salads looked good”

“We timed our visit right and it happened to be Polish weekend. We enjoyed several well thought out themed plates and washed them down with a Grodziskie. Can't recommend this place more. Their IPAs absolutely rip and their Minimum series is the best low ABV hops you'll find anywhere.”

“Their Tea Bar will make you anything in the store! They are extremely knowledgeable and the tea is amazing. Their cooking spices are great too! Their premade spice kita are perfect if you want to change up your usual routine. Love, Love, Love this store!”

“Where to begin as there are so many wonderful things to share! We were greeted by an absolutely top notch host. Our server was very professional and on point. The food was extremely delicious. The mussels in the hard cider broth were delicious. The broth should be bottled and sold! The salmon everything was carefully cooked to a perfect temperature. The everything crust was so creative. I could go on but suggest you make a reservation and experience it yourself.”

And we miss not having our favorite Trivia night each week that many came to enjoy at the former Blind Pig. Hoping we can get that back. It sure brings a crowd of hungry folks during the mid-week. Welcome, welcome, welcome...Gardiner is lucky.”

“Cook’s is a Bailey Island institution - a cosy retreat in the off season for hanging at the bar and a bustling blast in the summer time for locals and tourists alike (their annual July disco party is a can’t-miss event). They are a true pillar of the community and we’re lucky to have them.”

“Tried Li’s Place before shopping at L L Bean. Thought we could dine inside but it is curbside only. Decided to order anyway and parked to eat in front of LL Bean’s gorgeous holiday lights. Ordered a pu pu platter for 2, orange chicken & an order of dumplings. All were fantastic. Light batter on fried items & tasty moist meats. (My husband is raving about how good the spare ribs were) Would prefer more crab & less cream cheese in the crab rangoon. Only thing to note is ask for salt if you like a little more flavor and if you are a weirdo like me and like ketchup with the fried chicken fingers, they don’t have it. 😀 All reheated really well next day!”

“Wonderful people selling excellent lobsters! Highly recommend!”

“Amazing experience! Wonderful place for kids and adults!”

“Hailey was a dream vendor to work with for our wedding! Our wedding cake and cupcakes were absolutely to die for, and they were just as tasty as they were gorgeous. Do yourself a favor and try the maple cake and maple buttercream 🍁 Hailey also went above and beyond just delivery because she designed and set out the entire dessert table (florals and all!). I was of course busy getting ready when this was all happening, so when I finally saw the dessert table I was blown away! Everything was so perfect and I cannot recommend Hailey enough for your upcoming celebrations!”

“This Ben & Jerry’s just moved to a new store, so they gave their customers a free scoop of ice cream on their opening day. A very generous and sweet store.”

“What a great experience! I will never be taking my car anywhere else for brakes! He came over the very next day after I called, arrived early, walked me through what he was doing, and was incredibly nice! I highly recommend!!!!”

“I found this place on accident and I can not rave enough about the sweet staff we encountered and the atmosphere inside is amazing. Just a wonderful peaceful vibe with good drinks 🖤 will be visiting again before I go home!”

“We vacationed in Maine recently and walked across the cribstone bridge daily for some of the most delicious lemon scones we have ever tasted!!! Too bad we don’t live closer…”
