“The best place to eat in Round Pond! Great service, food and atmosphere. Thanks for another great meal!”

“You have to check out the Anchor! The food is excellent! We had the calamari as an appetizer: delicious! The dipping sauce was a bit sweet for me (I like spicy) but delicious nonetheless. Baked Haddock is awesome! Really fresh and served on top of creamy polenta cakes! Yummy! Excellent wine list! Views to die for! You must check it out!”

“Awesome food and gorgeous setting!!!”

“We had breakfast there today. Everything about the experience was wonderful. Prices are the best around, and portions are large. The blueberry pancakes are thick and fluffy and as big as a dinner plate! The view of the water was beautiful.”

“Very good food. Sitting outside on the dock overlooking the harbor is a great place to eat. They have live music several times per week now and it’s been great.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Everything about this place was absolutely amazing. The food is delicious and the wait staff is very kind and attentive. We will definitely be back!”

“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!”

“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!”

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

“Staying at Wiscasset raceway for the weekend and decided to go out for ice cream. LOVE the ice cream Flight and the ice cream flavors. So glad we decided to go try them out. They had me at Ice Cream Flight! 🙂”

“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.”

“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?”

“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.”

“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.”

“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!!!”

“Just had one of the best meals- peach and goat cheese salad with blueberry vinaigrette dressing and bang bang shrimp. And the hostess gave me some dressing to take home! Thanks for a wonderful experience (as usual 😉) Kaler's.”

“We just stopped in for the first time today!! EXCELLENT! Homemade, fresh, superior texture, old fashioned donuts. Friendly greeting when we walked in the door, a rare thing these days! This is an experience I will repeat! Thank you for keeping it classy & old school.”

“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!!”

“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!!”

“Fabulous in all respects!”

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

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

“I am just delighted that I happened to be in Damariscotta for work yesterday because I drove by a black cat themed sandwich place and decided to have lunch there, and boy was it DELICIOUS. Immediate green flag was when I asked the woman at the register (I forgot to ask her name, but she was lovely) what she recommended and she put real thought into it. She didn’t even have to upsell me on a drink or a side because I was hooked already with just how friendly she was. I ended up getting the red snapper sandwich and a side of potato salad and neither disappointed. My only regret was that I ordered my sandwich to-go when I should’ve enjoyed their dining area more and stayed a minute. I will certainly be back next time I’m in town!”

“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”
