“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!”

“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.”

“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!”

“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.”

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

“While visiting dear friends in Belgrade Lakes we ventured to Boothbay for a On the way back we stopped at Blanchard’s Creamery. I got the seasonal Maine Blueberry. Every bite burst with sweet deep blueberry. The best of the best commercial ice creams simply don’t compare. My hostess had the Raspberry Sorbet. She loved it. My host had an espresso latte’ that he boasted was killer. They’ll be going back for more, soon. I’ll be at home in New Orleans lamenting, wishing, Blanchard’s Creamery wasn’t 1,600 miles away. Our ice cream experience was made all the better by the young ladies behind the counter. They’re as thoughtful and sweet as the ice cream they serve. An 11 out of 10 experience!”

“The nicest folks own and work here, I always feel welcome. Lobster is cooked to perfection as are the steamers and they come out steaming hot. The place is very clean. Prices are reasonable.”

Yes it gets busy but it's a great place to go and if it feels crowded give it a minute. Service is very quick and once everyone is seated it's just an amazing location.”

“We are lucky enough to dine here often through out the season. The owners are amazing, the food delicious & the staff is friendly! Tonight was a surprise birthday dinner. The owner sent out an amazing piece of chocolate cake w/ a candle, the staff sang Happy Birthday! This was above & beyond any expectation I had. I appreciate you & the staff! We will be back! Thank you”

“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.”

“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?”

“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!!!”
