“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!”

“When visiting Maine two years ago, my husband and I were looking for gluten free restaurants, which can be quite the chore. After reading the reviews for Shannon's, we drove to Boothbay and couldn't believe all the gluten free options. We ordered more food than we needed because there were so many options. Everything was fresh and delicious. Seriously, gluten free onion rings! During that trip, we ate there twice and twice again the next year. We are looking forward to next year's trip and more Shannon's food. In addition to the food, the staff are warm, welcoming and friendly and make you feel like a neighbor instead of a tourist. We are huge Shannon's Unshelled fans!”

“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!”

“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!!”

“Kelly's has the best breakfast in Boothbay! You won't be disappointed. We recommend it 300%. Food is great and the staff is wonderful. Have never had a bad meal there.”

“Harborside 1901 is where craft and comfort meet the shoreline. 🍸✨ The modern mixology is nothing short of inspired — each glass a little journey of flavor and artistry. The staff welcome you not just as guests but as friends, creating an atmosphere that’s relaxed, fun, and wonderfully interactive. Plates arrive as both nourishment and celebration, with food that delights at every bite. And the finale — world-class pastries and desserts — lingers like a sweet memory you’ll want to return to again and again. (We sure did!!)A true gem where culinary creativity and heartfelt hospitality shine. 🌊🍷🍰”

“Make sure you have a reservation during the season for the best views. Even if you don’t, they work hard to accommodate you. Be sure to ask for Susan! She has great recommendations, service, and personality.”

“Lasagna is a must try and their cheesesteaks every pie they make is always delicious the staff is super nice and the vibes are always fun especially when they have a band playing.”

“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!”

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

“This place was recommended by a former resident of Boothbay Harbor. It is simple, straightforward, and phenomenal. They make fried haddock and fries. That's it. When I saw that a fish sandwich was $20, I thought it must be a ripoff. It was just the opposite! My wife and I easily ate until we were full. I'm not kidding when I say it seemed like there was 2 lbs. of haddock. This was easily the best fish sandwich I've ever had.”
