This is a spot my wife and I have driven past many times and had in the back of our minds for a place we needed to visit. Looking for a Saturday morning coffee and breakfast sandwich we decided to finally check it out. Parking lot has plenty of spaces. Once inside you will see it is quite small in size, but does have a small amount of seating for those looking to eat/drink there. The menu boards were overwhelming at first but a large majority of it is their lunch sandwich/wrap offerings. I did appreciate the options you can choose from bread wise and other customizations you can make. Drink wise my wife went with The Lavender iced latte and I got the iced Snickerdoodle. Both were extremely flavorful and were well made. Either one and I suspect any of their other drink would be a no brainer to get again. Breakfast wise we each got a sausage, egg, & cheese on a bagel. Which those came out steaming hot and were made well too. Will need to return to give their breakfast burritos a try! Service was friendly and both food an drinks arrived quickly. Also another note on service, when originally ordering they forgot to discount us for a BOGO deal they have going but when I went up to grab the drinks they said they removed one of the drinks to make it right and apologized. This will be a spot my wife and I will return to for both the drinks and food. We did end grabbing 2 of the 3 window seats and do wish it had no painting on the windows so we could watch outside better. It's a space that isn't trying to be over the top or blow your mind with the vibes but they deliver delicious food and good drinks for you with friendly and fast service. read more

Six dollars for a delicious breakfast sandwich. Customer service is great. Good coffee. What's not to like? read more

Their sandwiches are made very well with fresh ingredients. Pricing is in line. It's a quick in and out to get on your way.

Sandwiches and wraps are so difficult to get right but this spot knows how to make them perfectly. Both the wrap and sandwich were filling and flavorful, I honestly was overwhelmed by the amount of options we had to pick from! Every option comes with a side of chips that you get to choose! Also an awesome coffee spot, don't skip that coffee menu! read more

Crooked Mile is a really cute little coffee shop. My friends and I stopped by on our way back to Boston to fuel up before the ride. They have all the necessities, including your standard coffee drinks and plenty of sandwich options. The service was a bit on the slower side, given it's a smaller shop, but that's to be expected. I'd be happy to come back again! read more

The vibe in here is super cute, and we loved all of the drink options. Our breakfast sandwiches were decent. My chai was a little too sweet, but my husband enjoyed his coffee! read more

We had never been here before. Needed a pick me up and love to try out new places. Went in..cute place. Amazing sandwich menu. Really wanted to come back to try one of them. However the lady working the counter was very unpleasant. We had put in our order and before she had started on them, my fiance asked to add some cinnamon in the drink.... again...before she had started making it. She literally pointed to the cinnamon shaker and said " it's over there" turned around and continued. He didnt want it sprinkled on top, he wanted it in his drink... the one we paid for.. the one she had yet to start making and could have EASILY added some into the drink. Absolutely awful customer service. Bottom line is she acted like she didnt want to be there and that we, as customers, were an annoyance...Hate to say it but if she doesnt want to be there.... she shouldn't be working there. read more

I go here often when I'm at my mom's, almost always ordering an 8 oz dark roast and an egg and cheese on their 12 grain bread which I find very satisfying. I've started to try the specialty lattes; the Nutty Englishman was divine. The staff are casually eccentric and usually smiling and ready to give their tips on what to order. They have, at long last, opened up the small dining area (the shop was practically destroyed by a drunk driver) and was closed for about a year. The dining area is separated from the line to order/pick up by a half height wall. They have recently begun taking online orders for pickup which are placed on a table placed against this wall, on the other side from the dining tables. In addition to the few tables, they have several stools at the counter in the left front window facing Stevens Avenue. read more

Cozy little coffee shop with pastries and a nice menu of sandwiches. Friendly staff, service was a bit slow but there isn't a lot of space to move around. Some tables inside and I think during good weather there is seating outside. read more

I stopped here to get a latte. They don't offer whole milk for the latte so I passed. Looks like a pretty good spot for the locals. sandwich Menu looks awesome. Just bad experiences with coffee shops that don't have whole milk just a heads up for the next person. read more

Crooked Mile has become one of my favorite little sandwich spots. They have a good-sized menu for coffee drinks, and a big sandwich/salad selection (basically anything you can get as a sandwich or wrap can also be a salad). Fancy? Nope. Reliably delicious? Definitely! A couple of my favorites are the Greek wrap, the Cobb salad or wrap, and the Buffalo chicken wrap, which has a wonderfully spicy dressing. You can sit inside or out, but I tend to grab and go--the Brighton Ave. location is easy to swing into on your way somewhere else. Very friendly staff too, and my orders never take long even at peak times. The Old Port location for some reason doesn't have the same vibe and I definitely recommend the Brighton spot in particular. Stop by! read more

Good coffee and the breakfast sandwich was tasty. Customer service was good as well. Not as pricey as most places. I will definitely be back. read more

This is my favorite midday stop, they're helpful, patient, and the drinks are good! There's an endless list of things to try thanks to all their flavored syrup options. It's a cozy, cute interior with outdoor picnic benches. I haven't tried the food read more

Crooked Mile - Seasonal drink specials - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Maine

I've frequented this place a few times in the last few months. It can be bustling as people come by to pick up and grab their coffee/sandwiches. Casual grab and go. This place is perfect for that. However... they just raised their prices again!! And they don't offer wifi (which I don't understand because the seating area is always empty anyways). Food is halfway decent, but the amenities and price make this place a tad disappointing now. Used to be great but has gotten worse. It is very unlikely that I will be back read more

I just love this place. Always greeted with a smile, quick and friendly service, and the price point is perfect for specialty drinks (cheaper than the chains actually!). They're open at 7 too which makes for a great reason to stop on my way to work for the occasional fancy treat :) My only criticism (and this is very minuscule, to the point where I didn't even want to change my five star rating because of it, but felt like it's worth mentioning for those who are unfamiliar with the location) is that it can be kind of tough to get in and out of the parking lot because it is on the corner of two very busy streets. But if you play the lights right and find a way to get around the traffic when you're exiting and entering, this place will be totally worth your efforts! The coffee is bomb! Enjoy :) read more

What a fabulous place ! We had been visiting breweries but always love a good cocktail. This place was recommended to us by some locals we chatted with. It's a very pretty welcoming place. I imagine it would be great for wedding shoes. Bach parties. Etc. The staff there are very friendly and knowledgeable and will help you pick out what to try. We both had two drinks and they were delicious. We loved them so much we picked up Xmas gifts from there. It's a really great spot with delicious drinks. Highly recommend! read more

What a great location, well for me that is. But isn't they what my review is? My perspective. Yes sir It works well for me when I have to work I Portland. I can drop my dog off at a Happy Tails then cross over on Stevens Ave and then campus down the street. Very convenient. They open early enough to be ready when I arrive. The staff is so friendly and make a pretty good iced vanilla latte. They have a great bakery selection but if you get there before 7:30 you might have to ask as they are prepping the items out back for display. They usually arrive a bit after 7:00. Yeah, I go there often to know the morning routine. The bagels are great and hit the spot, but they get it all. Muffins, scones, bagels, and the fancy ones too. Glad they were able to reopen after the drive thru incident. Those who frequent know what I am talking about. They do offer ice cream as well, but have not experienced that part yet. But look forward. Check it out, get a coffee and a treat as you are passing by but not through. :-) read more

Crooked Mile - Vanilla latte - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Maine

Overall, I enjoyed this place! It was a cute and a nice vibe. Small, neighborhood cafe, with extensive choices for lunch and breakfast. The workers themselves were very nice and accommodating to my strong hatred for tomatoes. They had drinks that you could chose from and you got a free bag of chips. They had limited seating inside and practically none outside which was a bummer if I do say so myself. The sandwiches themselves were overall, mid. It was disappointing to say the least, and due to the amount of money I know owe my sister because I "forgot my wallet" it's safe to say i'm unimpressed. But, it was a nice outing and a good place for me to successfully avoid going to classes! read more

Breakfast burritos and sandwiches on point, wasn't the biggest fan of the turkey blt but still such an affordable spot with good coffee

Friendly and quick service keeps me coming back. The salads are filling and delicious, and so are the drinks! I find it very convenient to use the online ordering system and just run in to pick up my order--typically it is ready in less than 10 minutes. Ask for the snickerdoodle latte made extra sweet! read more

I had a few minutes left while my son was at an appointment and being mid afternoon, coffee was called for. I was about 15 minutes too early for iced cream (bummer) but this was certainly fine. A large is the standard 4(ish) dollars with tax. Tasted alright and they do offer milk alternatives if they are needed/wanted. Standard seems to be 2% milk tho. If I get the chance to swing by for ice cream in future, I will. read more

They've got a variety of sandwiches & coffee drinks all of which are yummy. It's my go-to place so I am treated like family by staff. There is now an area to eat in on Brighton Ave. read more

My sandwich was fresh and delicious, I had to stop from eating it all so I could try their ice cream and not make myself sick. The ice cream was amazing as well! The 'kiddie' was not so small and the staff was friendly. read more

I tried this place on a whim this morning as my go to spot was closed. 4 stars because I prefer a different bagel. The cheese was super melty on my breakfast sandwhich though and was very satisfying. I'll deffinetly be back for lunch they had an extensive sandwhich and salad menu and what looked like some great soups. I'm suprise they have so few reviews as the fairly small location was quite busy at 830 on a saturday morning. Would deffinetly reccomend if your hankering for a good breakfast sandwhich not from a big chain. read more

I don't know how this spot doesn't have more attention. Great coffee and even better food. Wide variety of sandwiches and wraps, breakfast sandwiches and pastries for the morning, ice cream over the summer (incredible), and a large variety of coffees and flavors to choose from. One of my favorite places to walk to in town! read more

We both got the Mexican breakfast burritos and it was fabulous! If you are into flavored coffee, make sure to get the snickerdoodle!

Went in for a simple BLT sandwich on toast with avocado (which was extra). I took the sandwich home and opened it to enjoy.. there was a small dollop on the guac on the sandwich, no mayo, and one tiny slice of tomato on one side of the sandwich that was cut in half. The bacon was clumped together and that pre-cook microwave type that you find at the grocery store. Thought this would be worth the try because how can a BLT be bad? Don think I will be going back to this spot. Maybe for a coffee sometime but definitely not a sandwich. read more

This is the spot for cost friendly well made breakfast slammed after a long night of slamming brews with the homies.

This cafe was close to our VRBO and became our favorite during our week in town. A great spot for coffee, sandwiches, and ice cream! Wish we could take it home with us! Would return on a future trip. read more

I'm here to tell, no, RAVE about the breakfast sandwich, which I believe they make at both locations. Don't get me wrong, the rest of the sandwiches and salads are also spectacular, but there's something about a really wonderful breakfast sandwich that sets this place apart from other cafes. My favorite order is the sausage, egg and cheese on an English muffin with veggies. The crucial part for me here is the veggies. Their regular sausage egg and cheese is wonderful since the egg is nice and fluffy, balancing out the sausage patty and all smothered in beautifully melted cheese... but the addition of veggies (tomato, red onion and shredded carrots) really elevates the texture and flavor to a new level. I added the veggies on a whim one day and clearly enjoyed it since I've been back to have it 4 out of the last 5 days. If you've never added veggies to your breakfast sandwich, do it- I promise you won't be disappointed. One warning though- the sandwich comes out piping hot, so be careful! read more

I swear to god, this is the best cinnamon roll I've had in my life. Warmed up, crispy, it melted in my mouth. The Heath Bar iced latte is one of the better iced lattes i've had in my life. The employees were delightful and very welcoming. Plan to go back again very soon. read more

This place has been under construction for what seemed like FOREVER. I always drove by this little corner and when I saw that it was going to be a little coffee shop, I knew I had to try it out when they opened. Obviously, opening during quarantine is tough but it seems like they're holding their ground! When I placed an order for a breakfast sandwich over the phone, they took payments over the phone and assured me that there was a "one way" traffic through the building to assure that I would not bump into anybody I didn't need to come into contact with. After ten minutes, I walked through their back entrance (their only place to enter the building) and a table was set up and a bag with my name on it for contactless pick ups! The breakfast sandwich ( sausage, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel) was huge and so delicious. The egg was full of flavor and everything was a great ratio so I could taste everything in all of my bites. This is my new go-to place! Can't wait to try out their lunch menu :) read more

Delicious, fast, ample serving sizes, and reasonably priced. They make it so easy to order on-line and run in to pick up.
