    If I had a dollar for every time I've driven past Freeport Cafe... well, you get the idea. My husband had been on my case about trying it for breakfast, and I finally gave in. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Turns out, this place is way better than I expected. I had it in my head that it was some kind of tourist trap because of the location, but nope. It actually gives off super local vibes, and the food was REALLY good.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I think this might be in my top three for best food-to-price ratio in the greater Portland area (does Freeport even count as that?). My "dish" was $11.99 and came with two eggs, two sausage links, two hash browns, and a homemade biscuit. The only thing I didn't get two of was the biscuit, but it was huge, so I was actually relieved about that. I left stuffed. More importantly, everything was really yummy! The hash browns were crispy but not greasy, the eggs were cooked perfectly sunny-side up, and that homemade biscuit... I could've taken another one to-go. Make sure you ask for it grilled; you'll thank me later. My husband got the biscuits and gravy and his food was just as good. Also, they have dozens of mimosa flavors. I had the pineapple mimosa and it was phenomenal. Service was great, too. Our server was friendly and super attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe inside reminded us of some of our favorite diners in Massachusetts; no frills, nothing fancy, just a classic diner feel. Exactly why we loved it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    This cafe was located right next to our hotel and was recommended by staff. We could walk there from our room. It was amazing! We happened to stop by for Father's Day and boy was it packed. The service was super fast and the food was great! My husband said the hollandaise sauce on his eggs Benedict was the best he's ever had. The sausage gravy was superb. The French toast was very delicious and the bacon was the best. The create your own omelet was huge and super fresh. Highly recommended. It came with your choice of bread and you could get a muffin!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]We stumbled upon this cute place today while starting our vacation in Maine.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We got there just in the Nick of time they were closing at two and it was 1:45. Also bonus they serve breakfast all day. I ordered the freeport special 2 eggs, hasbrowns, choice of meat and toast. All was very tasty. I'd stop there again if we get in the area.

    I ordered the Freeport favorite with homemade hash. I was disappointed with the hash as it had the taste and texture of canned hash. Everything else was very good and the coffee was freshly ground. Service was fantastic!

    blueberry, lemonade, mimosa!! !

    Traveling the area for first time.... We pulled over, For breakfast, unplanned. Busy, hustling, family owned café. Great food & service. We loved the owner's sign, thanking their patrons for their support during the last several years & sharing what the support has enabled the owners to improve with the building. The community love & support really showed & we felt fortunate to have experienced. Also.... Not overpriced in anyway!

    Traditional breakfast place serving up classics in Freeport with nice service and hot plates.

    Country Breakfast (didn't get photo of the pancake). The hash brown patties are a new add. Super yummy!

Once the order is placed and paid for (tipping is optional, but Kitchen Staff Appreciation of 3% is automatically added to your bill) it's brought to the table. Staff is friendly. The cheeseburger (cheese smash burger) was tasty, No fries, onion rings, cheese sticks are available, but they do have potato chips, etc. For the price of a cheeseburger, chips and soda (over $20, not including the optional tip) I would have expected more. It's just a single smash burger patty with cheese, in a "Pub" without even full table service.

We still love their smashburgers - you can get a signature one and you can build your own - they have really expanded options over the past 5 years. The chicken sandwiches are always so good. I recently discovered I loved the Jalapeño Popper Chicken sandwich. Their fries are always so great - especially if you have queso. Speaking of queso - one of the best things they have added to their appetizer menu...chips and queso- We love eating the leftover queso with our fries with our sandwiches. Chips have a lovely seasoning - sometimes a little heavy handed with flavor - but they are still delicious. I love their breadstick/pizza appetizer. it's more a focaccia bread and it's soooo good. Sometimes I just have that for my main meal. They have wonderful local beers in the cooler and wonderful sparkling non-alcoholic options as well. Don't forget to ask about their specials. In January we had the chicken curry soup - holy moly - it was SOOOOOO GOOOD!!!! And the warm pita that accompanies it. It's perfect. The shaved brussel sprout caesar is soooo good and VERY filling. While it's a small dining area - we have never found it crowded where there weren't seats. The food is just as delicious to-go. They do a ton of to-go orders. We will continue to be regulars (no less than 1x every couple of months). Don't forget you can earn Toastab Rewards!

From musty dive hotel bar, and not one of the fun ones (well there was this one older lady that would serve you the strongest drink of your life whether you told her you were driving or not but other than that), to fine dining.

Kinda like your grandmother's basement after a flood from 15 years ago that no one probably cleaned up. Yeah you know the smell. The short ribs were gorgeous, the reduction was perfect and the wild mushroom au gratin was heavenly. NY strip was perfectly tender, seasoned well and cooked to perfection.

When the server took our plates, they were still full of food, and when he asked if we wanted a to go box, we said no . We thought that might be a red flag about our experience. But it was not and that's not his fault. We've eaten in dozens and dozens of restaurants and this by far was the worst food we've ever experienced.

We ordered the daily special, a beef brisket with celery root/potato mash and brisket filled ravioli with a truffle cream sauce. The ravioli was the winner here for me - I would bottle up that truffle cream sauce and sell it. I love that they kept a good portion of the original framework of the building - it adds to the romantic touch to the rustic interior. Open concept kitchen at the platform made it fun to peep into every once in awhile during dinner. Great for date night and special occasions.

Let's start with the cocktails, because they truly deserve top billing. I always order the seasonal espresso martini, and somehow it just keeps getting better.

Whoever is behind that bar knows exactly what they're doing. The fish and chips? You cannot go wrong. Perfectly crisp batter, flaky fish, and fries that hold their own. It's one of those dishes you order once and then find yourself thinking about days later. That said, everything we've tried over multiple visits has been consistently excellent.
