“Awesome food, big portions!!!!”

“Great food and better help!”

“The food is delicious and of course the venue is fantastic! Everyone in the kitchen is so friendly and helpful even when it’s crazy busy and it must be really hot inside that kitchen!”

“We went for lobster rolls and boy did we get lobster. So much lovely fresh lobster. Had we known HOW much, we’d have shared a lobster roll. $50, and could have been shared between 3. Sitting in the sun watching the fish boats come in, heaven. Apparently this is usually served with mayonnaise but we had been warned that the Connecticut version (melted butter) was better, and for us at least it was. Would very happily return!”

“The food was amazing! We had the Creekstone Steak and Monkfish and were not disappointed, both were done to perfection! The wine 🍷 was perfect (house favorite was our’s as well) We did not have time for dessert (concert at the Boothbay Harbor Opera House) but we will on our next visit 😊 Definitely one of our new favorites in the Midcoast area!”

“Fantastic every time! The restaurant is gorgeous, the servers are kind and knowledgeable, and the food is absolutely incredible. Can’t recommend enough, it’s one of my favorite restaurants. And easily my favorite place to celebrate birthdays and special events.”

“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.”

“They make their own ice cream. Always delicious no matter your flavor choice. Portions are huge. You have to try a large banana split.”

“Amazing donuts and a great fundraising opportunity! They are great to work with and extremely friendly! Can’t wait to work with them again next year.”

“WOW!!! We’ve been coming to the region for so many years and it’s so great to find a place to eat like Oysterhead Pizza Co.!!! 4 of us ordered takeout. Pizza, a Calzone, a salad, the Magic Beans… everything was perfectly delicious. Fresh, tasty… we’re from NJ where people think you can’t get good pizza unless you’re in NJ/NY. Last night while eating our amazing food from Oysterhead Pizza Co., I could tell them all: Get in your cars and drive to Damariscotta for some of the pizza ever!!! We will be back for sure!!!”

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

“As a regular and a big fan of the menu and the food, I was terribly disappointed to find several signature items missing from the menu yesterday. No more crabmeat items?! No more salmon BLTs?! The new owner explained that he can’t make money on them because they are too expensive…. Eider’s food was expensive to begin with, but always worth it and always something to talk about. Why d*** it down?”

“they were super accomodating and made sure I had the best dinner around after working a 12 hour day. thank you so much guys!”

“My Abdul Brisket sandwich with passion fruit lemonade, was amazing, and had a lovely chat with the owner Abby! I’ll definitely be back.”

“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!!”

“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 order weekly and highly recommend the Singapore rice noodles! Amazing owner and staff, make sure to stop in.”

“Absolutely delicious! One of the best breakfast sandwiches I have ever had!”

“A local bartender recommended this coffee shop for a quick breakfast and it did not disappoint. Had a delicious pistachio latte and a maple snail, arguably the best pastry I’ve ever had. Wish I lived closer so I could stop by regularly!”

“One of the best food experiences I have ever had. The food was absolutely amazing. The staff were top notch. The restaurant uses local farm sources so everything was fresh. A hidden gem”

“The food is excellent and the atmosphere is great. The owner and staff are the friendliest people you could ever meet. They make you feel like family as soon as you walk in. We will be eating here for a long time!”

“RESTAURANT and BAKERY!!! Beyond fresh and delicious food and huge, tasty baked goods. The price is reasonable compared to other restaurants in the boothbay harbor area. Generous portions made to order. We had breakfast and returned for dinner! My husband grabbed pastries before we left town. They were huge, fresh and the best we've ever had. Highly recommend!!!!!”

“Thank you, Chris, for delighting us with such a memorable menu for New Year's Eve starting with the ceviche which was sublime with such subtle flavors providing a delectable experience to the palate and continuing with the steak & seafood cooked with utmost attention & savored with every bite! To top off this experience a delicious & refreshing dessert. We are most fortunate to have such talent within our reach!”

“Bravo, I went to the Pumpkin Festival and ate at your sandwich shop. After we ordered our sandwiches we were sitting on your deck. It was bad timing as it was the start of the races. It became uncomfortable when people were trying to stand on your deck to watch the races. The uncomfortable part was people standing over us as we were trying to eat. Thank you for having someone there to remind the spectators that your deck was for patrons and not spectators. Thank for the professionalism in getting confrontational people to leave. Finished dinner with your delicious whoopie pies to go. Can't wait to have the opportunity to eat at your establishment again as all of the food was spectacular”

“Who would’ve thought one of the best meals I’d have in Maine would come from a pizza spot in a converted work trailer? Vera Idyllic Pizza is an absolute gem on the side of the road. We stopped by twice in four days because the pizza was that good. The cheese and BBQ chicken pizzas were both amazing — fresh, flavorful, and with the best dough I’ve ever had. The setup is simple but really well done, and you can tell they put care into everything. Forget the lobster — this is the place you’ll be craving again and again. AJ from Buffalo”

“The food is excellent at a fair price! The menu has a lot of good options.”

“If you’re a chai latte fan—the best!! Toasts, large array of bakery items made fresh, quiches other specialty foods available (changes), granolas, breads…Try the baked egg, cheese on homemade biscuits! Next to Coastal Bookstore, the restored Lincoln Indie theater. Plenty on free parking on harbor lot. Wonderful!”

“Great atmosphere and good food what more could you ask for!”
