Service was perfect, and you order at the counter right as you walk in which is convenient. The sandwiches we had were chefs kiss. Bread was delicious, toppings were all perfectly balanced on the sandwich. The Iris had turkey, havarti, beet slaw with special sauce and pickles. Seating inside and outside and it was a perfect day to sit outside and enjoy the vibe read more

Ordered via toast, quick and easy. Person who helped me get my order was very friendly. I got the Iris sandwich. Bread was crunchy, the sauce almost made the sandwich slightly soggy but since it was toasted it saved the bread. I'd eat this sandwich right after getting it. Sauce is creamy and flavorful. The beets added another layer of texture and color, as did the pickles. Good amount of parking. It's a little small inside but has outdoor seating. This is a good stop if you're heading out and want to take something with you to. I'll definitely come back if I'm in the mood for a good sandwich!! read more

Really great little hidden gem! The staff were all friendly and helpful. Everything that we ordered was very tasty. I ordered a breakfast sandwich, which my wife hadn't seen, and she was unsure which she preferred between mine and her club, which is rare for someone who has a knack for finding the best thing on the menu! My kids LOVED the homemade "pop tarts"! The decor and furniture gives a feeling of being fresh and clean, and the patio gives a nice outdoor option. read more

I've wanted to try the food here for ages, one of those things that it just didn't work out. Today my granddaughter called and said let's go. I had a Great Island breakfast sandwich - very good and messy! Done just right - I think next time I may have the secret sauce on the side. Aubrey totally enjoyed the Chebeague Grilled Cheese - yummy! Service was awesome; and sitting in the sun on the deck - beautiful. read more

If you're debating whether the lobster sandwich here is worth it, you can stop. Phenomenal. I grew up in Brunswick and have been seasonal in Harpswell for 20 years, and this is the best lobster anything I've had. Huge amount of high quality meat with accents that actually improve rather than take away from the taste. I will so definitely be back! read more

Lovely gourmet sandwiches! Perfect in the summertime to eat on the patio, but still lovely in the winter. The Provisions downstairs has everything you may need to save a trip into town. Every employee is so kind and happy to help you or just chat. Will be coming every summer. read more

My husband & I had an appointment on Orrs Island & decided to stop here for lunch. What a wonderful hidden treat. We are from the Rockland area & my husband said he would drive all the way here just to have a sandwich! Wonderful service & very cute inside & out. read more

Very clean, beautiful, yummy place. Sandwiches are so good. Service very welcoming and friendly. Love it very much. Thank you!

Great service & great hometown feeling to this restaurant- all the food was made fresh to order - highly recommend!

Having an eatery so close to home can be addictive. Current menu is comfort food,with a twist of elegance. Ambience: Eat on the spacious deck over looking the water and boats coming and going. Service: Every detail is fine tuned, right down to a pickle! Color: Eye catching colors are the Iris Eats signature of "welcome." Wine: I don't drink, but cook with wine.. But if I did this is a one stop shop for the discerning pallet. Parking: Handicap, plenty of spaces for this one of kind meal. Experience: Customer centered enthusiasm... Timely order to plate, You will be happy every time you stop. read more

The food is delicious. Great for a visit out to see the ocean. You can walk out to see the boats and enjoy the water. The view is amazing!! Would come back again. Order at the counter and sit on the deck to look at the boats. Host was very kind. read more

Everything I've ever gotten here has been so super delicious. I would leave it 10 stars if I could! It gets pretty busy in the summer but completely and totally worth it--bring a blanket and picnic on the gorgeous lawn or order ahead online. And the staff is so patient and cool in these moments. read more

We ordered two sandwiches for lunch and it cost $54. Granted, one was a lobster sandwich, however, it had no flavor whatsoever. We had to go in search of salt to get some kind of taste out of the sandwich which didn't help. The other sandwich was good, which was the Iris Sandwich with the beet slaw, but definitely not worth $20 with a piece of deli turkey and a slice of Swiss cheese. We did not order any drinks, so one sandwich was $20 and the other $34. There were no prices listed on the menu bar. The decor was very cute, but it was freezing inside on June 29. While sitting there, several customers had to go back out to their cars to get a sweatshirt. When the employee brought our sandwiches out, my friend was in the restroom and she went to the wrong table 1st but then I called her over. When she went to set the sandwiches down, she looked at me because I was at the table alone and with a look of shock she said "You ordered two?" We were hoping for an enjoyable lunch experience, but unfortunately, we will not be going back. read more

First time here, on a whim. The Iris was the best sandwich I've eaten in a long time. My husband loved his sandwich and so did my son. They were super accommodating telling me that they make a smaller size sandwich for kids that isn't specifically listed on the board. It's small but there are tables inside and out, it's super cute, and all of the staff were very friendly. read more

Love love love this place! Food is so fresh and flavorful - highly recommend!! Staff is extremely friendly and it's a gorgeous setting for a bite to eat. read more

Food was wonderful, the staff friendly and attentive. Will go back! Yelp says it needs more words read more

First of all, this place is AMAZING!!!! Second of all, this place is UHMAZING! 1. It is located right in middle of a boat yard with BEAUTIFUL boats and views of the water. 2. The environment is so relaxed and very similar to a Starbucks feel (except it's a local business) 3. The food ranges from sandwiches, gourmet grilled cheese's, gourmet potatoes and more.... 4. I had a breakfast sandwich and it was so good that I honestly didn't believe I deserved it. 5. I also got a Sourdough Gourmet Grilled cheese that was actually an "adult" grilled cheese that will blow away any grown up (or child with heighten grilled cheese tastebuds). Finally everything is sourced LOCALLY! High quality and expertly chosen ingredients. Tourists or locals alike it is a place to visit for some grub!! read more

This place is everything you want it to be. Great menu of breakfast and lunch sandwiches and bowls. Everything is super fresh and delicious. They put a lot of care into the preparation of their food and the service is equally attentive. I had a perfect Reuben which they've renamed. My wife's turkey bacon avo sandwich also perfect. Day before I had breakfast bowl w veggie home fries and fried eggs. Good strong coffee. I'll happily return here. read more

Iris has fast. become one of my absolute favorite go-to spots for breakfast & lunch. The food is SO good! Their take out menu is exceptional, with many options to add on. I don't think I've ever had a better sandwich, and the daily desserts are well worth sampling, too. I'm most impressed by the creativity and the abundance of flavor in everything I've tried. The setting is magnificent, of course, and the service is friendly, fast and the owner makes every visit a joy. I just love this place! On a nice day, sitting on the patio is wonderful, too. read more

This place is excellent -- breakfast, lunch, and bakery items have all been delicious. I will happily drive from Brunswick to go here rather than eat downtown. My only complaint is that they have limited hours -- otherwise we'd go more often! read more

Love this place! The ingredients of the food are such high quality and fresh! Everything is delicious. The inside is quaint and the deck is also a fabulous option to eat on. They take allergies seriously and have GF options!! Such a wonderful local gem with staff who remember your name. Cannot recommend it enough read more

The food was off the chain! Chef Elyse knows what she is doing! My sister had the lobster roll and I had the smash burger. The lobster roll was amazing (probably the best I've had since being in Maine) and the smash burger was the best burger I've ever had. The topping, the bun and the medium burger with this glorious burger sauce was just a mess but the best mess to have! I wish I had taken pictures to prove how amazing everything was. read more

Vacationing in Maine and couldn't wait to visit Iris Eats! There were so many wonderfully tempting menu items to choose from, but narrowed my options and chose The Lookout Point! This was the most delicious and beautiful lobster sandwich that I have ever seen or tasted! Not only was it exceptional, the microgreens, pickled onions, potato chips and fresh pickle were yummy accompaniments. I loved this so much, I returned for another a few days later, and that, too, was equally amazing! As if it weren't enough, I finished my last lunch with a homemade Strawberry Poptart, which I also can't stop thinking about!! Until next time, Iris!!! read more

Always delicious and friendly. Even on a rainy day - sitting outside is a pleasure. Lucky spot, perfect food!

Iris Eats Maine at Safe Harbor Great Island Boat Yard is a great addition to the Harpswell community. The food is great! We can be found here at least one day a weekend and now that Iris is open Thursdays, even more opportunity for a great breakfast or delicious lunch. The baked goods are tremendous. A perfect ending to a delicious meal. Great vibe, great deck and great space. The team led by Elyse is so talented and nice. This place is my new go to place for breakfast and/or lunch. The Way Life Should be! read more

Everything we got here was awesome. Everyone working there is very friendly. Would have eaten here every day we were in the area if we could have! Favorite was the purpoodock. read more

What a wonder place. Excellent food, clean, quaint and well appointed. Definitely going back and spreading the word.

We are so glad Iris Eats opened this winter. We try to go every weekend. The breakfast sandwiches are exceptional. We love the rotating selection of baked goods, especially the homemade pop tarts and Bundt cakes. Also a nice selection of goods for take out (wine, Maine beers and coffee). Everyone is so kind, we always feel really welcome. read more
