We were so excited to go here and try their blueberry pancakes but are extremely disappointed in the service. We requested to sit outside in the front and were told by a male waiter "it's only for people the restaurant knows because they have such a problem with people walking their checks." While I understand this is an issue, this is such an odd assumption to make for our table who just waited in a long line to be seated. After a bit of convincing and promising we'd pay our bill ...were seated. After 20 mins of waiting with no service, the same male waiter came out and told us we had to go inside and order and pay with the waitress. We are the only table that had to do this by the way....everyone else had table service. Simply ridiculous. As someone who has worked for many years in the service industry I am simply confused by the lack of desire to want to make a nice tip off a four-top table. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Please be aware that if you want to sit outside here you will be met with a bunch of terms and conditions...[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The view from the deck couldn't be better[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], the California Benedict and fruit salad was spot on/delicious and the service was excellent. Just get there early and prepare to enjoy. read more

Blue Moon Café - Outdoor seating looking out over the harbor - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Boothbay Harbor, Maine

Small little cafe! Coffee is self served. The best part of the cafe is the terrace which has an awesome view of the harbor. Breakfast is simple. Had two sunny side up eggs with English muffins and home fries (mixed with sweet and regular potatoes). Sadly, the potatoes were undercooked, almost raw. Service at counter was a bit repetitive with our orders but the waitresses who brought our food to our table were excellent. Otherwise...it's an adorable spot for a quick start in the morning. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I like the set up of this place. Order at the counter, take a number, find your seating, and wait for your food to be delivered.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Coffee refills and a decent amount of seating (but not as much waterfront as you'd hope.)[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I didn't love my breakfast-cheese wasn't melty and it arrived warmish, not hot. Counter service was friendly. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Very nice breakfast right on the water.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The ordering process is slightly confusing, and the food is somewhat expensive, but it was good. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Blue Moon Cafe is everything you want in a coastal Maine breakfast spot, laid-back, friendly, and full of charm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I stopped in for breakfast and ended up coming back the next day because it was that good. Their hash was one of the best I've had, fresh, flavorful, and made with care. The bb muffins and coffee were equally excellent. [[HIGHLIGHT]]What really stood out, though, was the vibe. The cafe sits right on the water, so you get beautiful harbor views while you eat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's the kind of place where you instantly feel at home, whether you're a local or just visiting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff were super welcoming, and you can tell they really care about what they do.

We come to Boothbay Harbor every summer and this year we stayed for 10 days, so plenty of opportunities to enjoy breakfast at the Blue Moon where we've enjoyed the blueberry pancakes for many years. Sadly, this year we only ate there once and the reason may surprise you because it certainly surprised us! The morning we had breakfast here, the food was delicious as always! I ordered a farmer's omelette (ham, cheddar & veggies) and it came with a toasted english muffin and home fries. It tasted wonderful but the cheese was stringy and tough... like overcooked mozzarella, so I removed the cheese and finished the omelette without it. The home fries were great, BUT I only received 7 pieces of potato! It was as if they ran out and gave me the dregs before they made more? I don't know but for a breakfast that was almost $15. I expected a serving of home fries, not a few pieces. My husband had the Maine blueberry pancakes and they were wonderful, as they always have been since we began eating here many, many years ago. We also ordered a Maine blueberry muffin and the server kindly asked if we wanted it toasted and buttered (thank you) and it was absolutely delicious as was the coffee. The reason why we ate here only once, instead of every morning of our stay as usual wasn't because I was shorted on the home fries. We stayed away for the following reasons: 1). The chairs on the deck (where we and everyone else prefer to eat) were horribly uncomfortable! Whoever made the decision to replace the chairs with these cheap, wobbly, back-bending, plastic lawn chairs made a BAD decision and it wasn't just my opinion... once one person mentioned it, everyone chimed in and complained! The slope of the back of the chairs force you to recline when all you want to do is bend forward a little to eat at the table. Patrons feel like a bug on its back! 2). The new, cheap plastic patio chairs have a bigger footprint than the old chairs, and they make the deck horribly tight! The chairs are back-to-back, so unless every customer is a size 0, you cannot sit down! Folks were really frustrated at not being able to sit AT their table, or being shoved AGAINST their table due to overcrowding caused by these horrible, awkward, plastic chairs! 3). The staff MUST start posting that guests cannot claim tables until they have an order number. It's the job of the staff to make patrons comfortable and welcome! Rude patrons were hogging tables LONG before they ordered leaving folks with hot plates of food nowhere to sit and eat! It's just plain wrong and something needs to be done about it, even if it's just enforcing a rule that you cannot sit down until you have an order number to place on your table. Seeing folks standing up, trying to juggle their plates and place their coffee cups on the ground is inexcusable! There are a few tables indoors and two or three out back on pea gravel (no view of the harbor, but a few flowers; it's pretty) but most patrons want the view and I think it's up to the management to, well, manage! Great food, great views, horrible seating. Please replace the chairs to sturdy bistro chairs (I noticed you had a few) and please manage the seating. We only had one meal there (out of our entire 10 day stay) because nobody wants to begin their day with frustration. Breakfast should be relaxed and peaceful. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]What a lovely spot - great food and service with beautiful deck.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Had delicious omelets and french toast.

This wonderful place...........the service, the chefs, the food, and of course the beautiful harbor view. As a family owned business, the owners take customer service to the top level. Going above and beyond with not only taking care of all of your needs, but making sure that everything is just right. And one of the things that I am most impressed with about this place is that the chefs philosophy of it's hot now get it to the table means that sometimes you were waiting for your food to cool down enough to eat it! Hands-down, the best breakfast place in Maine ! read more

Great affordable spot downtown! My fiancé and I got the blueberry pancakes and "the blue moon" egg sandwich. Good stuff! Have REAL syrup for an extra charge.

Definitely would recommend! read more

Wonderful spot in Boothbay Harbor. Great conversation with the proprietor who has made the place feel very safe for Covid-era meals. My crab and cheese quiche (daily special) was delicious - so crabby - and my partner's homemade hash and eggs were perfectly executed. My fruit cup was filled with excellent fruit (not always easy to source in Maine in June). We're making this place a stop every time we come back! read more

You wait forever and ended up walking out. Go to Waves instead breakfast there is awesome and the service is the best $

I'm going to keep this short because I really don't like to leave negative reviews, but this lobster roll for $30 is totally unacceptable and think customers should be aware of what to expect if they order this. You can go anywhere else in Boothbay and get triple the amount of lobster for the same price. I apologize to the owner for leaving a negative review, but this is really bad. read more

I came here in the early AM specifically for the patio on the water. For this reason, I recommend this place! Very pretty and peaceful spot. I only had coffee and a muffin, so can't speak for the hot food, though people around me who ordered it seemed to like it. The coffee and muffin I had was nothing special (sorry). But again, I didn't come for the food. The staff was pleasant. Definitely worth a visit. read more
