Let’s not pretend that eating doesn’t quality as an actual activity here in Maine. Sure, we talk about hiking and swimming and boating, but digging into lobster, grilled cheese and BBQ is a pursuit worthy of some serious attention. Our favorite way to enjoy the culinary goodness of Vacationland is in the many small towns that run up and down the coast and inland. This great locally owned restaurant in Maine is one of the best.
