15 Best American Restaurants in Camden

“Great service. Thank you Sarah! The food was outstanding. Biscuits, blueberry pancake, bacon, maple latte. Everything was perfect. Love the feel of the interior. Highly recommend.“

“We’ve enjoyed Franny’s for more than 8 years and our dinner last week was no exception. Our server was darling - service was gracious and smooth - and the food was wonderful. I ordered the halibut special topped w roasted peaches - a really and truly memorable meal. My companions loved every bite of their salads and steak frites. Jen and company always make dinner at Franny’s a treat and we can’t wait to go back.“

“Came here to celebrate my fiancee and I's engagement while we are traveling around Maine. We received phenomenal food and service dining here at Winonas! We did one of everything and all of the dishes were amazing. The tofu and the Halibut were highlights! We will be back next time we are in Camden and recommend this to anyone looking for an intimate dining experience!“

“We always receive fabulous service with a smile!“

“I had the Haddock melt, very good would like to know where you get you haddock for the sandwiches? Excellent, hope to get back before we leave for Arizona.“

“What a phenomenal dinner with family. Visited from far away, but I am thankful we ended up here. 1st, Chris was a fantastic host at the bar before we moved to our table. Addison took over and took great care of us. Portions were ample & everyone sated and happy. Highly recommend for the foodie and non-foodie alike. All can find happiness and be well taken care of at the same time.“

“We stopped down at the harbor for a snack on a lovely Sunday afternoon. Harbor Dogs is a tiny little stand, but they do a lot more than hot dogs! After a bit of deliberation we walked away with a million tons of food. Poutine! Asian fish tacos! Chili cheese dogs! Lobster rolls! Everything was delicious and those guys at the window? Top notch chefs. Get down to this unassuming shack and get yourself some amazing lunch.“

“Beautiful healthy food!!!!“

“Great ice cream and the girls working there were awesome very friendly“

“Everything from when we entered the restaurant until we left was top notch. Very welcoming, excellent service and delicious food. Prepared and cooked to perfection. Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy the Blue Barren!“

“We had a harbor cruise scheduled and arrived early to beat the traffic. On our way to the harbor we passed this deli and looked in. Saw the baked goods and that was it. I'm pretty particular to the calories I consume, but couldn't resist the peanut butter cup brownie and coffee latte - both of which I've never had. YUM! We sat inside to watch the water for nearly an hour. After the tour and walking the town we were nearly to our car and decided to go back for a sandwich to take home for dinner. Best retracing of steps ever! The sandwich was very tasty and there was enough for a second dinner the next night.“

“Hidden gem along Maine Coast. Food is amazing with Chef Katherine from Buck’s Restaurant joining the team.“

“Happy hour at Hartstone Inn was amazing with Tiffany. I enjoyed the Gin Kiss and Elderflower Cosmo.“

“My wife, daughter and I visited here this past weekend, and the atmosphere of The Waterfront called to us - great views of the harbor and several good online reviews led us here. Our experience lacked a bit - the intense heat in the area led us inside, where they didn't have any AC on so it was sweltering in the corner they seated us at (but to be fair, the weather isn't their fault, and they probably usually keep the windows open to enjoy the nice cool breeze off the water, which wasn't in play that day).

Our server was friendly, but overall didn't seem much interested in us after we indicated we weren't ordering cocktails, and the time between her visits was pretty lengthy - enough to run out of water twice.

The food was really good, with one notable exception. We had the lobster roll as well as the halibut tacos, both of which were tasty and excellent. Our daughter ordered the special of the day, which was fried shrimp and scallops, and she liked her meal. She offered me a bite of one of her scallops and I discovered that they weren't, in fact, scallops. It was a breaded whitefish of some kind, likely cod, made up to look like a scallop, and while it wasn't bad, it also wasn't a truthful depiction of what was on the menu. I grew up on the Chesapeake Bay and have been eating seafood my whole life, and clearly know the difference between scallops and fish. I also know there are times when restaurants may substitute fish for scallops - in this instance I just think the restaurant should have been truthful about it.“

“We had a party of 2 at 3:45 pm on Friday, 6/19/26. We came to watch a World Cup match and have a snack. Service was good and quick. I got a cider and we split wings and a hummus plate. Everything was pretty good! The back porch looked really nice and I would’ve loved to sit out there had they had TVs. Good place to watch sports.“
