“Very friendly and honest with recommendations as it was my first time in. The food is pretty healthy and is typical cafe offerings like melts, bakery, salad, etc.

Great price for exchange. Unclear but I believe the drip coffee and tea are complimentary with purchase....They serve breakfast all day, I just was here for lunch though. I would return after this visit.“

“I booked the Tea Party at the Regency with Stephan. I was given a coloring menu earlier in the month while visiting a friend, her daughter and baby at the outdoor cafe. I asked the bartender about the Tea Party and then she had Stephan explain it to me. I We arrived 7/26/25 at 2:00. Our party consisted of 4 adults, 4 children and a baby. I was greeted by Stephan and the server. They had our table ready with pretty tea cups and napkins. The families arrived dressed all pretty for a tea party. We ordered tea, champagne and lady bug coffee for children. We ordered the tiers of food and the adults and children had a fine time drinking tea and tasting tea sandwiches. The food was great. The children were served lobster shaped watermelon. The best ! The whole experience was spectacular Thank you to all We learned about manners, etiquette and drinking and eating like a young lady. One little thing you might change on the menu When looking at the Champagne bottles pricing It was a bit confusing on the amount and the pricing. Thank you all a lovely experience for ladies and young ladies to share. Regards, Kathy“

“Lobstah Roll a must have and gluten free snack bars yummy“

“I had so much fun tonight attending the Unicorn cupcake class!! The instructor was so informative, fun, and easy to learn from. Thank you and I will definitely be back!!“

“My husband, MIL, and myself were visiting Maine all the way from NC and came here TWICE during our visit. First was brunch, then dinner. Both meals were exceptional. Our waitress(I wish I could remember her name, but she has long, red hair), gave the best service I have ever experienced in my life! This will definitely be a spot we must visit everytime we come up ❤️“

“Josh is a 2 time award winning coffee whisperer. Also there’s an iced malt coffee you need“

“We visited on a late Saturday afternoon in mid-June 2025.

We found street parking a couple blocks away. The cafe is in the basement of the museum near the bathrooms and water fountains. There is a large meeting room or lecture all auditorium thing we believe too just further down the basement.

We did not actually eat anything here but we did take a bunch of pictures hoping to help others out. We actually didn't see any staff while we visited and we weren't sure if they were already closed for the day or what.“

“Great place for a nice light breakfast“

“The café at Books a Million (BAM) had a cheerful and efficient barista at 9:30am. A mid-sized Café Americano was surprisingly inexpensive. The café offered limited indoor seating at tables and in plush reading chairs beside end tables. It also had outdoor patio seating. It had good onsite public WiFi. Plenty of free parking was available. I'll be back! Nothing beats sipping a good coffee at BAM while looking through the best sellers for a new book to read on a Maine beach or on a flight out of nearby PWM.“

“Stopped in looking for a souvenir I could fly with and walked out with some goodies. As a bonus they had delicious vegan cookies which I got for myself! The person I spoke with was super helpful and kind and not at all judgy about my excitement about tinned fish! They went above and beyond with helpful information and advice.“

“So, I'll say, Wowww, as I lick my fingers after my last three mini donuts from heaven! We found 88 donut after finishing at Highrollers around the corner and made another stop the next day before returning to Boston. Bite-sized, hot, made to order and a complete party in your mouth. These can be addictive 😍
I live in DC and looked to see if they shipped :) but they don't. Check them out if you're in the area.“

“Great food and friendly service! Love this place“

“Panera is a place where I worked when in secondary schools. It's been a place of quality standards. The foods are a treat, and similarly to years ago, if my diet includes animal products, then the frontera chicken sandwich is my go-to out of habit.

Appreciate the thought for the newer $7.99 meal deals. They are excellent for a small bite, any of you other lithe, agile & nimble travelers out there.

Salads and treats are delicious on special occasions.

Beverages are always fresh and ready. The teams make it flow beautifully.

This location is a delight, with a fire in the fire place for cozy vibes.

Thank you to Panera for quality, consistency, and comfort.

The hours of operation are super for early birds.“

“the blueberry latte is my favorite, but the people who work here are so great too!“
