Perfect to watch the boats and free water taxi coming and going. Our waitress was very busy. We didn't see much of her, but she did a nice job for having so many tables. We tried the clam chowder. Way think and rich. I'd love to see more clams, but only because I like mine full. There was plenty in the bowl though. Needed a little more salt & pepper, but I like that it doesn't come out over seasoned so we can fit our taste buds. Husband had the 1.5lb lobster . He said it was really good. He said he needed at 3lb to be full. French fries were crunchy on the outside and perfectly soft in the center. The way I love them. I ordered the "fried" haddock Ruben. I ordered mine broiled instead. Perfectly toasted marble rye bread. The fish was pretty buttery and not a large piece of fish. Maybe a little too much for my personal liking. But the haddock had good flavor and texture. Slaw was ok. Felt like it needed a distinct flavor to make it pop! 3 bean salad was really good though. Lobster was $35. I felt like that wasn't a bad price. Overall, I'd stop in for lunch again.

Can't say the same on a busier day/night It definitely was a different vibe than the pictures that what were expecting though but that may just be us , The prices for what you get we will say 6/10, & we are from upstate ny so we get higher prices 100% but there are quite a few other restaurants in town for more , better food & all for a lower Or just around the same price but better food and more selection .

We ordered two types of sliders, one being the fried chicken and they were almost inedible. The chicken was barely fried and then buffalo sauce was slathered all over them. The burger sliders were ok but nothing memorable. As far as the service, while the bartenders were friendly when they came around, they couldn't keep up with the crowd. We waited and waited to be served and they most times did not even look at the guests at the bar to see if they needed anything. While I may try this place if I'm in the area again, I can't say it would be my first stop to hit.

OMG, we've had a place in Hope (nearby) for five years but never tried/heard of this place. And…read morethat is our loss! Devon and Hannah are the couple that own and run the place - he's the ridiculously talented chef and waiter (or chef that delivers and describes the food) and she's front of house (greeter, waitress, sommelier, and seems genuinely happy! The food...so so so so good and unique. If this place doesn't win major awards I'd be shocked. There are maybe 10 tables so even when "busy" it's never chaotic (well I've only been once and it wasn't too crowded but Hannah said as much and she seems very honest!) The food and service is very much the appeal and they absolutely nailed it. Pointedly they did not spend a lot on interior, yet it's simple, tasteful, and appealing. They don't open every night, just Thu Fri Sat - which is why they still love it - their words but my wholehearted agreement. It's not inexpensive but when someone has clearly mastered their crafts like these two, I am onboard every time. Also, you know when you love a place but after going a bunch of times you get kinda tired of the menu? Well these two change menu every three weeks! Camden has a bunch of restaurants that cater to the tourists - they are fine and some are even good but not special at all. But this place, what can I say, I fell in love and will be back often!

The chowder tasted of cream, the potatoes were soft and subtle and cooked and cut properly; the clams were fresh and the amount resting the just not enough range.

There are usually two restaurants in Camden worth trying amongst the many tourist traps and…read moreFranny's is one. I first went to "Francine's" over 2 decades ago! While it was a lot cheaper then, and maybe a bit better, we throughly enjoyed our meal here. The biggest improvement is the comfy outdoor dog-friendly tent. Service was very sweet and prompt. Our ribs and swordfish were excellent. The tent has a large floor rug which added a homey touch. The only downside was the 70s rock canned music. Otherwise, this is one of only a few worthwhile dining experiences here.

Our waiter was pleasant, but the service itself was glacially slow: 15 minutes for 2 drinks to be delivered; and it should not take an hour from the time you order to the time your dinner is served. The steak frites, previously a favorite, was a disaster. Steaks were undercooked, fries were overcooked, and the grilled ceasar salad I remember really enjoying was an over-dressed, over-cooked soggy mess. The Kraken appetizer, again an old favorite, was cold and soggy. While sitting outside on a summer's evening can be pleasant, their tent is dank, dark and chill. Even the paper menus were wilted. They have heaters, why not light them? This evening at Franny's was a sad disappointment.

Came here with 3 others on a Thursday night after striking out at another restaurant (we did not…read morehave a reservation). They took us in as long as we were able to be out by 7pm (it was around 5:30pm). The food came out super fast (almost too fast). We only ordered mains since we already had happy hour elsewhere. They had one special polenta cake, but no other specials. The restaurant had not filled up yet, but appeared to have some reservations booked for later on. It was pretty hot and uncomfortable in the room, and wish they had better AC. It just made me want to eat and leave faster and made it hard to enjoy the meal. We were sat next to a portable unit but it wasn't doing a very good job and pointed away from us. I got the salmon over mushroom risotto. They asked how I wanted it cooked, which isn't usually something I get asked about salmon, so I said to cook how they normally would. It was probably about medium inside, still tender and not overcooked. The salmon had a strong grill taste but not enough seasoning and the fishy brown part was still attached underneath. The mushroom risotto and carrots were cooked and seasoned well. Overall, there wasn't anything major wrong with the meal, but I felt underwhelmed for the price tag ($36).

"Blueberry Salsa" nothing more than blueberries and onion with chips coated in dense strips of black pepper that hurt the pallet to eat. The main course was plain and wet. All the food is filled with Rosemary in a way that over-powers the non-existent other flavors. The bill came and the price of our strange food made with date, rosemary, and black pepper felt very wrong. Guess we payed triple for the ocean view. The menu appears normal at first but every item seems to randomly have nonsense ingredients mixed in. 2/5 would not go again. Many great restaurants in Camden, this isnt one.

The hosts were very friendly, and the restaurant was clean with plenty of seating.

We gave the benefit of the doubt, but the atmosphere never improved. We had planned on ordering food, but after one drink each we decided to head somewhere else.

This spot has been feeding people since 1974, and you'll understand why in one bite. The lobster roll is the move, dressed simply so nothing gets in the way of the sweetness. It's a fraction of what you'd pay at a sit-down spot on the harbor. There's no dining room, just a few picnic tables scattered around the lot. It's not fancy. It's wonderful. It's the kind of stop that makes a long drive to Bar Harbor feel like part of the trip instead of an obstacle to it. Grab a roll and find a table in the shade.

In any case, the haddock chowder was both exemplary in how the haddock was cooked, and probably my favorite New England-style white chowder I've ever had.

(It may be at least partly nostalgia, though...for those of you who've been to Scotland, it's not far off from Cullen Skink!)
