“This was our first time here in 8 years since it changed from Maxwell’s to Pepper’s. Maxwell’s was a place we visited frequently when in Ogunquit, and we even had my 50th birthday there. We were very apprehensive about going to Pepper’s, and we did not know what to expect! Wow and cool were the first 2 words I thought of when we entered! The place we came to know and love changed, but it was a great change with an awesome bar! Then, we had some drinks, an appetizer, and then our food came. All of it was great, and all the servers and bartenders are wonderful! We definitely recommend the Firecracker Shrimp and Calamari for appetizers, and the whole belly clams and teriyaki tuna for main courses! Everything was fresh and delicious! We are looking forward to our next trip to Ogunquit, and Pepper’s will definitely be on our dining list!“

“Just had an amazing dinner at Walkers Maine in Cape Neddick! Our waitress Brook was fantastic, helping us navigate the delicious menu. We started with complimentary bread & oil, then devoured fried oysters. I enjoyed the short rib kofta with zucchini & German potato salad, while my friend savored the salmon entree. For dessert, we had to try the in-house-made sarsaparilla-glazed donuts & ice cream. Everything was top-notch!“

“Every visit to the White Barn Inn is a luxurious experience. From the moment you walk in, they make you feel so welcome,like you're the only guest there. The service, accommodations and amenities are unparalleled. And the best experience is dinner in the barn. The food is delicious and the service, again, impeccable. Nils in the dining room made our evening perfect. Thank you for always going above and beyond. John and Kirsten Skibbee“

“A rare gem. Huge portions. The freshest of ingredients. Yes, they offer a Vegan special. Even better, the taste, very special. Within ten minutes, we had 4 different people check on how we were doing. We were in a rush to make the theater. They handled that very well too. A truly special place. You will leave with minds at ease and belly full.“

“Wings and things, but AMAZING pizza too! New to town, and wasn’t sure what to expect, it was fabulous. Ordered the Mexican and a Pepperoni/Banana Peppers. Next time will try the wings! Quick and easy ordering and pickup.“

“Dining beneath the stars in the igloos at Clayhill Farm, surrounded by twinkling lights, was like being in our own personal snowglobe! This is the 3rd anniversary we’ve celebrated this way and continues to be THE most delightful romantic experience - frosting a layer of sparkling beauty on our already meaningful day. Shout out to Heather & Kelly for taking such wonderful care of us, and compliments to the Chef for the delicious, savory meal. Special thanks for the sweet anniversary card and treat! ❤️“

“This is a hidden gem and I’m so grateful to have found it. I got the Monstah Lobstah roll and it certainly lived up to its name. It was so big that I was able to bring half home to eat at a later time. We will definitely be back and hopefully Caitlin will be our waitress again… a super nice young lady. The food is delicious and the staff very accommodating.“

“Duffy’s Tavern & Grill is a must-visit! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. The highlight?

“My family and I love Cape Neddick Lobster pound. We always have 3-5 children with us everytime we go, the kids love getting their kids meals in a cute boat and at the end of the meal the children can pick a prize out of their treasure chest!!! The high ceilings and large windows make for the best views with Super cozy vibes in the winter! Always super clean, staff is always so nice and very attentive! Every meal we had our food comes out perfectly with 0 complaints! Some of our favorites are the warm pretzels, the mussels, Caesar salad with steak, and my absolute favorite is the seafood pasta! 10/10 !!“

“My husband and I stopped in for some breakfast. The food was really good and actually reminded us of home. Staff were very nice and polite and it had a welcoming atmosphere. I would eat here again if we were to ever return to Maine.“

“Went on Sunday. Was a bit nervous because of the varied reviews however, we are so glad we tried it. The iced tea was fresh and strong, my pancakes were big and fluffy loaded with blueberries. The staff was attentive but they do seem a little frazzled. The restaurant is clean and spacious and again the food was great.“

“For you that know me and those who don’t,I speak my mind about any subject whether it’s good or plain sucked !! I have to share this little story with you ,a dismal start to our vacation week, A normal 3 hour drive turned into a five hour one,then I had issues with my oxygen machine,which turned into waiting for a servicemen to come from two hours away.So we are looking at 9 o’clock at night before he would come, now we haven’t eaten since morning and now it’s past 7:30. We knew since Covid hit most eateries are open limited hours, we called Stutesy’s Pub & Grill they said come on down even though they were already shutting down for 8 o’clock. That they will take care of us,not only was Stacie a gracious host her husband cooked us a wonderful meal and even made two more meals to go for our two sons,who were coming laterThey won over our hearts and our taste buds so you’ve got to give Stutesy’s a try for sure!!“

“Looking at the outside my husband and I thought we were underdressed, but once inside it was cozy. We were sat near the bar and fire place. The food was incredible, staff was super friendly and the place was clean. I highly recommend stopping!“

“Had a great experience at Batson in Wells! I have been to their other locations, but never to Wells and loved the waitlist feature, cozy atmosphere, and menu. My cocktail, soup, and mac and cheese were all delicious and the service was great. Looking forward to going back soon!“

“OMG the waitress was incredible! We had a beer flight and she was out of one beer so she gave us a pumpkin spice with sugar and cinnamon on the rim, it was delicious. I had the Maine sampler (lobster roll, clam chowder, fries and blueberry cobbler)and hubby had the fish and chips. Both were delicious and we enjoyed the view of the boats docked while we ate. The waitress never forgot us, she checked to see if we needed anything and told us about local must sees. Well worth the trip.“
