They were kind, professional, and just really awesome to be around!! We were continuously laughing and having the time of our lives, they made everything so comfortable and easy! As a bride, stressing that everything turns out perfect is always the top of my mind. But not while working with Erica and Hillary, they put so much work into the photos I was instantly excited to see the end result... And I was right to be, my mind is blown away by the photos I have seen so far and I cannot wait to see the rest of them. They did a phenomenal job and are worth EVERY PENNY SPENT!! I highly recommend using Closer North for any event!!

Erica was great to work with over the phone- very understanding and flexible and wiling to help me make the day special! And Hilary and Ami were great onsite- they got pictures discreetly and didn't distract from the main events. They were understanding of tricky family dynamics. They were willing to battle harsh terrain and blustery winds. They were just fantastic and made it easy for us to have the shots we wanted. I love our pictures and we'll be framing a bunch of them for display all over our home!!

The Inn itself is quaint and historic and the perfect location for an event or a group getaway. It is right next to the water and just beautiful. There are canoes to use as well as games and books inside. They are also just great restaurant and bar as well, with amazing specialty drinks and an eclectic collection of local beer and IPAs on tap. I highly recommend this place for your summer or fall getaway. I know we'll be back.

We picked up food from Vicki's Kitchen and were genuinely impressed. The Margherita pizza, the…read morechicken and broccoli pizza, and the Dubai chocolate torte were all wonderful -- truly some of the best pizza we've ever had, and the dessert was just as memorable. I met Vicki in person, and you can immediately tell she has a real background in food. There's a confidence and ease that comes from years of being a chef and caterer, and it shows in every bite. The building itself has a long history -- it was Perry's before Cutler, and Perry's was fantastic in its day. We really missed having a great spot there, so it's a joy to have an absolutely delicious place back on the side of Route 1. Vicki has done a great job sprucing up the space. It's adorable inside, thoughtfully done, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. We're so glad this little place is open again, and even happier that it's now Vicki's Kitchen. Highly recommend.

The person assisting us would literally open a refrigerator and say, sorry, we're out of it. It was Incredibly odd. iIt also didn't have any seating except for a picnic table in the parking lot. Though a small place, they should add a couple bistro tables inside. I read that this is a new establishment. It may have promise as a catering business, but not as take-out, at least not yet. We waited almost 25 min for a sandwich.

Not only did they arrive hours ahead of time to setup and make sure everything would be ready in plenty of time for our guests to use upon entering our reception, but when my parents were cleaning up at the end they offered to transport our giant bar back with them to the Bangor area. Wow! Guests are still talking about how much fun they had in the "photo lounge" and thanks to Photo Booths of Maine, we received digital and hard copies of every single photo strip with messages from each guest in a gorgeous keepsake book that Kevin mailed us the day after our event! My husband had so much fun, we are already looking forward to his 40th birthday party next September so we can work with Photo Booths of Maine again. If you're looking for a hilarious and unforgettable addition to your wedding or special event, you would be lucky to work with Photo Booths of Maine - they were fantastic!

Their hot and sour soup is my absolute favorite-- no other compares! I highly recommend grabbing a bowl while you're there. Also, another one of my favorites are the steamed vegetable dumplings...yum! Another positive is the drinks. They're very reasonably priced and VERY good! Usually when I have a drink at a restaurant I find them hard to enjoy because they're so sweet. This is definitely not the case at chopsticks! They're mixed perfectly! If you love Chinese food, give this place a try. You won't be disappointed!

No. I got chicken, rice, and teriyaki beef sticks. My beef sticks were literally inedible. Spoiled, tasted like they were in a freezer for a year or something. Literally the worst taste I've ever tasted from a restaurant. I would say invest in fresh food and quality. I hate giving a bad review anywhere because I know how hard it is as a business owner. But really fix the food quality please.
