The best Scandinavian pastries I’ve ever had. And I’ve had a lot! The kardamumbuller, kanelbuller, pear cake, fennel sausage hand pie were soooooo good that we literally turned around and went back again.

Fika is a hidden Swedish gem in Saco, Maine! We ordered a cappuccino, iced latte, the Kanelbullar and Kardemummabullar pastries. The Kardemummabullar is so fresh and delish with a hint of cardamom. The Kanelbullar was also just as good and fresh! We got there on the earlier side since there was a line by the time we left. The coffee was really great and a perfect pairing with the pastries. We sat outside at the picnic table with our puppy and it was a nice spot for a quick fika.

Fika was such a delight! The kaffe latte and matcha latte were delicious - honestly the best coffee I've had in a while! But the real stars of the show were the baked goods!
We also ordered the breakfast sandwich (without meat), Norwegian toast, cardamom bun, focaccia (shishito peppers and sweet corn), and a marzipan pear cake.
The breakfast sando was so good - the biscuit was just the right size so it wasn't dry, and the spread they put on it is so tasty. The Norwegian toast was just the right balance of sweetness. The focaccia was so stinking good! The perfect height and texture with the perfect hit of flaky salt on top.
And the main reason we trekked 50 minutes first thing in the morning? The cardamom buns. We were so excited to find a place making them, and they did NOT disappoint! The cardamom flavor sang, and the texture was perfection. I'm the past we tried making them ourselves, and they were nothing next to these. We even half joked about how we'd pay $100 and sign an NDA for the recipe. They are that good.
Yes, we had a little wait. And we got there early so luckily they still had everything we wanted to try. I can understand how long waits and sold out items can be frustrating. But I honestly think it's all worth it. Give them a try. It's probably a good thing we're 50min away, or we'd likely be here every weekend.
Thank you for a beautiful fika!

The coffee was one of the best I ever had! The breakfast sandwiches were superb and I loved the Swedish caramel cookie. My entire family loved it. I’d travel back to Maine just to visit again.
Best summer squash focaccia I've ever had, still thinking about it a year later.

All I drink is espresso (why water-down a coffee?) This is by far the BEST tasting espresso in the area. Order a double shot (actually 4 shots as they serve doubles) and you'll have yourself a wonderful tasting coffee to sip hot or on ice. All we need is the revival of pine flavored ice cream from the Elda restaurant and BAM!
