“Nice friendly place for breakfast. Only complaint would be the 2 additional .90 charges on the bill. Guess they were probably for sour dough toast and rye. Staff should NOT offer everything as if it's included, make it clear if there is an upcharge. I only wanted 1 piece of toast anyway, and ended up paying extra. Would have declined. They need to train staff...“

“Very good. Wells Maine in winter means many closed restaurants. This bar and grille area s definitely a locals place. We started with an order of Wagyu sliders, that were very very good. They had bacon, melted cheese and mayo on them each and came with three in the order. Then we split the grilled chicken salad, which was a basic fresh mixed green salad with a few tomatoes, a few cucumber slices, some croutons, and very small amount of shredded cheese. Dressings tasted like they were out of a bottle, but they were good. We especially liked the waitress. No nonsense and great service. We could also see what seemed to be the manager, replenishing tables, cleaning up, and helping out wherever needed. Well, it wasn't exactly fine dining, we really did like the place. I believe their lobster roll would have been great, but we've already eaten enough lobster this week. I'd go back there.“

The decorations alone made the visit worthwhile.The food matched the festive atmosphere. I had the mussels and smoked haddock chowder, both had a rich and flavorful taste. The "Zero Proof" mocktail and non-alcoholic beer selection were a pleasant surprise, providing excellent alternatives.Our waitress, Nicole, was not only attentive but also exceptionally kind, adding to the overall positive experience. I'm looking forward to my next visit!“

“There are quite a few " smart casual" dining options in Ogunquit and I cannot claim to have tried them all, but , of those I have sampled That Place stands out. It is a small town average floor plan that lends an air of intimacy to a roomy vibe. The service is highly trained and knowledgeable but without being pretentious. As for the menu, it is large enough for choice but simple enough to suggest specificity and care for each dish. Escargots seem to be out of favor these days but here they immediately caught my attention and did not disappoint! Neither did the generous and perfectly cooked pork chop. Utterly delicious! My Hendricks martini arrived with a slice of cucumber as garnish- a stroke of genius- and has since become my sine qua non ( if you can persuade the bar tender to supply the cucumber!) Go on spoil yourself!! You'll thank me afterwards.“

Being a Sunday afternoon in the middle of January it was a little quiet inside with few at the bar and a couple of tables seated. We sat at the bar and promptly greeted by the bartender. A glass of wine and a blueberry lemon drop hit the spot for us with a nice pour for the wine and a tasty mix of blueberry infused vodka and limoncello for the cocktail. The bar is a nicely remodeled mill building that was very clean and presentable inside. We will visit again to try some food.“

“This restaurant was suggested to me via my hotel lobby clerk as I understand that it is a favorite of the locals.I sat at the bar as they were very busy and had good conversation with the friendly bar tender even though he was swamped he made sure to interact with me.Started with the crab cake and initially was disappointed at the size of it, but after the 1st bite changed my mind as it was almost all crab maybe a small amount of breading to hold the shape. So a pleasant surpriseI had their fish and chips (pictured) but doesn't do it justice. The fillet was very sizable flaky tender and cooked perfectly. The breading was just enough and great.The only real negative is that they are obviously well liked by the locals and very busy which due to the size of their place made it quite loud.Otherwise a great meal in a wonderful local atmosphere with great food“

We had salads to start which were fresh with a nice mix, they do not skimp on their vegetables! For our meal we had pizza, chicken broccoli alfredo and a cheeseburger. The pizza was the perfect blend of fresh ingredients and the crust had a slight crisp but not too crunchy and not too doughy. The pasta was a hit and the burger juicy. Everything was very fresh and flavorful. Best of all, the prices were amazing for fresh, quality food! We will miss being able to go back while they are closed during the winter months but definitely excited to try more in the spring!Kid-friendliness: They don’t have a printed kids menu but just ask, they had plenty of options to make perfectly kid sized and kid priced which we appreciated!“
