Restaurants in Boothbay Harbor

“Great from start to finish. From the warm welcome at the host stand to the attentive service and unforgettable food—every detail stood out. It’s definitely a splurge, but worth every penny for an experience this memorable.”

“I almost overlooked this place and I'm SO glad I didn't! We had the Brandy Lobster, Calamari, Seared Scallops, and Steak Tips. Every single dish was perfectly cooked and seasoned beautifully. The waiter was kind and attentive, and the cozy atmosphere was perfect for a chilly, rainy day. I would absolutely come back to try some of the other dishes!”

“Lobster, clam, corn, potatoes are so good. Beautiful sights!”

“Great sandwiches! You won’t be disappointed with this shop. We ordered the Harvest Turkey and Pit Boss.”

“Coastal Prime was my choice for a birthday dinner, and it did not disappoint! Martinis were very well-made, wine choices plentiful, and appetizers and dinner were delicious. Service was excellent. My only complaint is that the music choice was incongruent with the atmosphere.”

“Just like the clam shacks I remember as a kid. Best clams I had in the week we were in Maine!!!! Highly recommend to any visitors looking for that small tucked away place for great food.”

“It is a classic must stop for seafood on the harbor and make sure to snap a photo with Captain Brown before you leave.”

“I had breakfast on the deck everyday of my trip! Service was friendly and great. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was a perfect was to start the day!”

“We had the best experience at the bar with AK. He was fantastic- super friendly, gave great food suggestions that turned out amazing! Would go back again and again!!”

“The view is so calming the food is excellent and if there's a problem they will fix it for you with no problem just great food great help and atmosphere”

“YES! Just yes! The Boathouse Bistro delivers an extensive menu of carefully crafted, and fine tuned dishes. The food is all cooked to perfection, and truly escalates the dining experience. Fresh ingredients meld together with a delightful atmosphere. The staff was a well oiled machine, and very attentive. 12 out of 10 rating! Thank you! We LOVED our experience here!”

“This is a bit of a departure from my formal, thorough restaurant reviews but I simply have to shout out the fine folks of Bakers Way. Their breakfast sandwiches are up there with the best I’ve ever had, and the bakery selection is second to none. Let me preface this anecdote with the fact that my wife despises donuts as a concept. I order a cheeky vanilla sprinkled donut, and grab it from the lovely woman working the counter. I hand it to my wife to hold while I go to pay (and they say chivalry is dead). I turn around and what do I see? 3/4 of the donut missing and her with sprinkles on her face going “you may want to get another donut”. Amazing spot for coffee, craic, sandwiches, and donuts.”

“fantastic place! the beer and service is very outstanding! Mya was our server! she's very professional, friendly and was helpful in helping us decide what we should try! thanks so much! I highly recommend to stop and try this business out! beautifully decorated as well!”

“We had a lovely stay at the Smuggler’s Cove Inn. The property is stunning with a beautiful view of Linekin Bay from seemingly every room. Our children loved using the pool, kayaks, paddle boards, and fishing from the dock. Our room was updated and comfortable. Breakfast was complimentary each morning and the spread was delicious…a nicely upgraded version of chain hotel continental breakfast. The family who owns the resort were very accommodating and we had the sense that they truly wanted their guests to feel comfortable and to have a great experience. Highly recommend!”

“Had dinner here twice this week great food really fast! waitstaff were fun and took good care of us Highly recommended!”

“Fantastic espresso and European milk shakes! Our tradition became getting my daily hit of caffeine and my quad espresso never let me down! It was smooth and just a hint of bitterness that I adore! Highly recommend!!”

“The Best coffee in Boothbay. A consistant great cup of coffee every time.”

“This place is a dream. The scones are perfectly buttery, with just the right amount of sweet. Their iced lattes are the very best. The lavender cookies, cinnamon rolls, warm egg croissant sandwiches and the list goes on and on because I think we’ve tried everything at this point.

You can taste that everything is made from scratch with love.

There is something so authentically homemade about this special spot. It feels like a cozy kitchen where everything is baked fresh each morning. It’s our go-to first stop!

If you haven’t been yet, go. You’ll want to come back every day of your trip.”

“Delicious, affordable, deck seating, friendly staff! Loved the homemade veggie burger.”

“We ordered out and came to pick up Stihl the atmosphere and Service was second to none. The food was better than Robinson’s Wharf and the price was $100 less for a family of five. I will definitely return!!”

“A nice bbq spot next to the brewery, where you can bring the food back to the brewery or the beer down to the bbq spot. Brisket sandwich was good and fries were a nice compliment.”

“They had a lot of ice cream flavors. It was really good.”

“One star missing because both times I went, the young slim women wait staff put me in a mishapened tiny booth. I am 6 feet tall 275 pounds. They needed to keep the full sized booths for larger parties. I am larger. The booths were less than half full both days. Oh, I did like a more mature waitress called Chris. Watching her be happy was infectious.”

“Love Boothbay House of Pizza. As a “summer person,” I look forward to it all year long. It is ALWAYS delicious and worth any wait! I’ll keep coming back year after year.”

“Excellent breakfast . Friendly staff. Cash or check only but ATM available”

“Friendly staff. Great location and service.”

“Best pizza around! Our family absolutely loves all of the pizza and the MVP and 2004 sandwiches!”

“Delicious food and friendly staff. I had the egg drop soup and it was WONDERFUL!”

“Classic Maine!! Great location and wonderful food and service!”

“Came up from Connecticut on vacation. Honestly wasn't expecting much from a seafood state and boy was I wrong!! This pizza can compete with some of the best in CT for sure!! Get the Diavola, you won't be disappointed. Friendly staff and a great view as well.”
