Truly my favorite restaurant in Maine for so many reasons.
The ladies operating this incredible place have been in business over 45 years, they know what they're doing. Never walked away hungry or disappointed. Alana knocks the drinks out of the park, as does Danielle. Truly a great place any time of year; be it a Sunday brunch or dinner the rest of the week.

We tried Slate’s for brunch and everyone in our party was generally pleased with the food, service and atmosphere. Our one critique - and we all thought it a valid one - is that the meal prices on the in-person menu were wildly higher than what was advertised on the web. With times being what they are, this could make for an unpleasant surprise for anyone planning a meal there, based off the clearly out of date pricing still visible on the web.
A simple web update would seem very much in order here. Beyond that, we would definitely recommend giving Slate’s a try.

Traveling through Maine from Ohio. Saw Slates mentioned in a Maine tourist magazine. Met friends here and were totally impressed with the special menu. Our waiter, Michael, was the BEST. He shared with us the story of how the restaurant began and other interesting background information. The food was delicious. If we were going to be in the area longer we would definitely make it there again.
The food was incredible, the dessert was perfect, the service was great. It's definitely loud in there but the food makes it so worth it. I love the eclectic art all over the place, the hand painted tables, the plant life, the beautiful lamps, the beams upstairs. The whole package!!

Saw this place and popped in cause I’m always gonna be curious about a bakery. Was not expecting it to be tiny store front and I was kinda taken aback about how messy the displays were covered in plastic wrap. So I’m not sure if everything was baked fresh this day.
Service was fine.
I made a panic purchase and grabbed a blueberry oatmeal cookie and it was one of the best oatmeal cookies I’ve had. I wished I had grabbed. Couple.

We had an excellent meal. Waitress right from the get go was not friendly. No smile. Just a job for her. When asked for drinks, i asked for ice water with a lemon. I was given a glass with lemon to add to my water on table. No ice. I like to be paid attention to just like those asking and receiving an alcoholic beverage.
When i got to eat my leftovers tonight, there was NO sauce which there was plenty when she boxed it.
Very disappointed.
This waitress was not pleasant.

Everyone loves Slate's - it's definitely worth going once, but not if you're looking for lighter entrees. The food is primarily served with heavy sauces, making it difficult to taste the actual food. The servers are friendly, but it's always busy so they're kind of an a rush.

Daily specials menu viewable on Facebook. Amazing frosted cookies for dessert. Small garden seating with live music creates a intimate cozy atmosphere. Well worth the trip.

My husband and I were in recently and the best part of our meal was our server. The food was meh. My fish tacos were very soggy and fell apart. My husband ordered the pasta dish. It was so white as if made with all purpose flour and so overcooked it was not at all al dente and flavorless. Sadly, we won't be returning.
