    We stumbled upon this cute place today while starting our vacation in Maine. 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!

    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.

    Freeport Favorite

    Foodie: Okay folks, here's where I start. I am fortunate to have a large appetite which lets me try a variety of items so my list will be longer than Cutie's. I started off with a veggie omelet and substituted the regular eggs for egg whites. Understandably, there was less flavor in the eggs which only brought out the flavors of the veggies. Starting off strong, the omelet itself gets a 7.8/10 for going above what I expected. To my left there were two hefty pancakes, which I originally mistook for three (a compliment), some ham slices, a hefty cinnamon roll, and a grilled blueberry muffin. To my right, a hot cup of pumpkin coffee (I had it black). To say every bite of the cinnamon roll was like biting into a sugary, airy cloud would do it a disservice. I have had good cinnamon rolls, this was better. 8.0/10. I am known among my friends for being able to put down a lot of pancakes...and then some. These pancakes were satiating, delicious, and had a thick, cakey texture that I would love to have again. If you have a reasonable appetite, these pancakes may be sufficient to hold you over for several hours. However, I would recommend having these as a side to compliment another of their delicious menu items. 8.2/10. The ham was ham. 7.0/10. The coffee was a simple blend, but it was enjoyable and warm. 7.3/10. A surprising star of my order was the grilled blueberry muffin. There was a beautiful mixture of sweet and salty that would be worth getting just by itself. Forget Crumbl cookies, get yourself 6 grilled muffins! 8.7/10. Another set of superstars: the service, our waiter, and the ambiance. First, we were looked after throughout the entirety of our meal and constantly provided with opportunities to (a) get refills on our drinks and (b) order more items. Second, the waiter was kind, provided everything with a smile, and patiently waited while we finished our meal. Finally, everyone working seemed to enjoy each other's company. The teamwork was evident and the laughter was appreciably audible. May they all continue to have such hearty laughter in the future. Overall, the average for the restaurant came to a 7.8. But the service, our waiter, and the ambiance brought that number up to an even 8.0. I would recommend the Freeport Cafe to anyone and everyone. Thank you for such a pleasant breakfast experience! Cutie: I enjoyed the Freeport Favorite. It comes with eggs, a choice of bread (bagel/muffin/toast), meat, and either hash browns or home fries. I got my eggs scrambled with cheddar cheese, sausage patties, wheat toast, and hash browns. Foodie and I split the giant cinnamon roll. Freeport Café was a very pleasant meal. The food was delicious and home-y. There were no forced quirky menu names, which is always a plus. The hash browns were hash brown patties, which I was not expecting but still enjoyed. My meal was very filling. Foodie and I had been waiting all week for this day and we did not leave disappointed. It was good, simple food and Foodie and I had excellent service. The environment was very positive. Staff was very kind to guests and very notably to each other. When one of the servers came in, the other guests were very excited to see them. There was a very strong community feel in the restaurant. My overall rating is 7.5/10. I thought the food, service, and atmosphere were phenomenal. If I went again, I would get the eggs without the cheese, but that's up to personal preference. My toast was a little crispy, but still enjoyable. The cinnamon roll was the size of a plate and about 4 standard cinnamon rolls put together. Definitely something a family (or two people who really like cinnamon rolls) could share. It was soft and I could envision the Pillsbury Doughboy angrily huffing when losing a cinnamon roll contest to the giant one we enjoyed. Everything that came out was warm and had just been prepared.

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

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!

The portion sizes were large and I love my food. I was able to take home half my sandwich in my brussels sprouts, and each of us took home one of those sweet honey corn fritter thingies. I hope if you're in the area, you're gonna stop by and check this place out it's also attached to a brewery but my husband and I we don't drink so we weren't interested in that And I felt the price was just right for the food

Impressive cocktail menu, and notably one of the better non-alcoholic mocktail programs I've seen in the entire Greater Portland area. The crab dip was as every bit of sensational as I expected. Bread is always a good choice, but honestly, there's not enough for the dish. I think they could do something special with Ritz Crackers here to complement. 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. This time it was tiramisu-inspired, and it was unreal. Rich, balanced, not overly sweet, and actually tasted like the dessert without feeling heavy. 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. It's the kind of menu where you feel safe branching out because you know it's going to deliver. The space itself adds to the whole experience. The architecture is beautiful, with warm wood tones and big windows that bring in natural light and make the river views part of the meal. It manages to feel polished and special without being stuffy. You can dress up a little or come in relaxed and still feel right at home. And the service is always attentive in that effortless way. Our servers have consistently been knowledgeable, present, and genuinely welcoming without hovering. It makes the whole night feel easy.
