We passed on both and got a few pastries which were delicious. No where to sit inside but little tables outside that fill quick. Would definitely pop in for some baked goods.

How does one spend over $100 at a bakery - come to Standard and you'll find out! And it was…read moreabsolutely worth the wait in the rain on a Sunday morning. After having some of the bread prior to our meals at a few restaurants, we found out the bread is locally sourced at a sister business right around the corner from where ate the night before. There is parking avail for customers in the lot for 30 mins, we prob waited about 20 mins and crossed the threshold into baked goods heaven. There was so much to select from - we got pastries, cookies, pizza and bread - and we pretty much liked everything. Our least favorite was the morning bun with walnuts - we didn't have it right away so that might've been part of the issue. Just note that the bread served at the restaurants aren't available until 2pm - we were leaving that morning so we weren't going wait for it. We opted for other loaves instead and they didn't disappoint. If you want something yummy and fresh - make sure to stop by here before heading out of Portland. I do wish the setup was a bit more conducive to the big crowds as there isn't much space from the front door to the counter but still a fantastic find!

A friend took me here when I was visiting town and I immediately fell in love! Their sourdough…read morebagels are absolutely delicious. They have staple flavors and rotating "guest stars". The honey rosemary guest star was a favorite. The Maine Sea Salt with their herbed cream cheese was also impeccable. I'm here for a few more days, and plan to visit as much as I can. The staff is great- spelled my name right, which is a rarity for me. Go early if you want bagels. Sometimes there is a line, but it moves quickly.

I wasn't terribly excited about it but gave it a try. The Almond Horseshoe is just about the best GF treat I have eaten. And eating at Willard Beach makes it even better.

I love a local market with a drink and sandwich counter. C Salt has some of the best English…read moremuffins you can get in the area. They are also one of the few spots that does a breakfast burrito properly - unforgiving heft and totally stuffed. It's the best spot to grab breakfast and other provisions before you head over to the beach. For coffee: the iced drinks are decent; warm drinks are solid. They have a display of sweet items that should you have children with you, will haunt them incessantly until you purchase something for them. Service time is completely reasonable; young folk behind the counter making drinks and slinging food orders. Cute patio seating outside which makes it a favorite spot of mine, especially when the hydrangeas are in bloom! Lots of seating inside. The marketplace is dangerous. Although it's limited pickings, it's been carefully curated for elevated items from Maine vendors or other top brands. It's great spot to get small gifts for people (food, wine, other small crafted items)!

We grabbed a meal for a group of ~10 people to go from C Salt earlier this Summer…read more For me specifically, I ordered the lobster roll and the Haddock Chowder. The LOBSTER ROLL was so tasty and absolutely bursting with lobster. It feels simple but flavor wise it is perfect. The HADDOCK CHOWDER on the other hand was the complete opposite of perfect. The haddock itself tasted very fresh but the base had absolutely no seasoning or flavor and so it tasted like cooked fish in hot milk. All in all, a good option for lobster rolls but stay away from the chowder.

They were the perfect amount of sweetness, and there were so many fun flavors to choose from. I also loved that each one was individually wrapped, making them easy to take home. They even have a gluten free option that was fantastic, too. My only regret is not buying more. I've already looked into having them shipped because they'll make great holiday gifts, and I'll definitely be ordering a box for myself too! Lastly, we had a chance to meet the owner and she was the kindest business owner I've ever met!

Their space is bright and roomy with lots of seating and tables, with a chance to watch the bakers do their magic! The staff was really helpful with suggestions while we made selections. We enjoyed our treats very much, less the scone which seemed a little underdone. We will definitely be back, likely for a birthday cake!

We only stopped by for the pastries and didn't try their drinks. The service was normal for the…read morecafe area; can't say too much about it. The miso scallion scone was S++ tier, very good. The kimchi cheddar corn soufflé was also very good but not as good as the scone so would give it S tier. The matcha and black sesame butter mochi tasted very good but I think I still prefer the more savory options so would give it an A+ tier. The texture reminds me of Malaysian kuih and flavor was good. The service with the grocery mart area was friendly and helpful for asking questions. We got a fancy soy sauce here to sushi later and it was pretty good. They didn't up charge the soy sauce too much either. Would come back again even though the selection was small.

I was thrilled at the chop stick holders and the sauces that were available. Local and foreign. If you keep walking through, there are stairs and you can go up to where they make and sell some pastries and matcha, and I believe coffee. I came for the treats. I grabbed a scallion miso scone with a chili smear on top. It was nice, the texture was good. The flavors weren't as strong as I had hoped for, but texture carried the weight. I also had a sourdough cookie, but it wasn't anything too fabulous. It was a good cookie. Stop in for the creative tastes. The counter person was nice. It was a very brief interaction.
