The coffee was hot and well-made! The biscotti was tasty with a good texture, not too hard not too soft. The chocolate croissant had a Nutella filling that was delicious and it was especially good being dipped in the hot chocolate. read more

My coffee was fine but it cost over $10. The service was good but I don't think that it was worth the price.

Dan & Silvia have the cutest shop! We have gone here every morning during our trip to Boothbay & definitely recommend if you're wanting some good coffee & yummy breakfast! Silvia is so talented, she makes all the signs, food, and drinks! We got the berry oats, veggie breakfast sandwhich, and coffee! We spun the wheel, such a cute touch! Heidi ordered drip coffee both days & I ordered oat milk lattes. We enjoyed it on the dock across the street :) Go to Red Cup if you're in the area, we loved it! - Heidi & Maddie read more

A beloved local place and must visit for any tourist, this is a walk up place for coffee and simple breakfast items. It was OK the coffee was fine but the breakfast sandwich was actually rather basic. Per person for a sandwich, beverage, and tip was $25. There's no seating but ample outdoor public seating, which is fine in good weather. read more

My favorite breakfast sandwich in BBH: eggs, cheese, sausage, and a cinnamon raisin bagel. Delicious and hot every time. Good coffee. PRO TIP: order online at their website. Sometimes the order line gets really long. I put my order in and it's ready by the time I walk down there. read more

Red Cup Coffeehouse - Breakfast bagel: eggs, cheese, sausage, and choice of bagel. I go for cinnamon raisin to get the savory/sweet! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Boothbay Harbor, Maine

Whenever I'm in the area, it's a must that I stop and enjoy the most charming spot in Boothbay Harbor, Maine: the Red Cup Coffeehouse. Today we order and split the Blueberry Cinnamon Bun and the Iced Salted Carmelita which were both super delicious and super fresh. A true taste of Maine at its finest. I appreciate their mission statement that their coffee is "Produced sustainably with regard to environmental impact, without the use of non-organic fertilizers and pesticides". Not only were the food beverages tasty, but they were served with so much pride and joy, that it was a pleasure to visit again - as briefly as it was. I especially love the outdoor window for quick service. Also - I give props to owner Paul Johnson for going along with my James the Great joke... Long live James the Great and his Iced Coffee Iced Salted Carmelita Two shots of espresso, sea salt, caramel syrup, and milk served over ice Red Cup Coffeehouse @redcupbbh 29 Commercial St, Boothbay Harbor, ME 04538 read more

Love love love this place. Delicious coffee and scrumptious breakfast options. They have a limited pastry selection but make up for it with a good bagel and breakfast sandwich assortment. The breakfast burrito was a surprise hit. The beans (baked?) were such a treat. My sammie kept me full all morning. Order at the window and wait for your name to be called. Grab a seat at one of the few tables out front of be prepared to eat on the go. Done be dismayed if there is a line-it moves fast and your food and coffee will be worth the wait. My favorite spot of our weekend trip. read more

Had a wonderful matcha latte and split a turkey club sandwich on sourdough with herb mayo with my husband. Everything was delicious, the staff was friendly and the sandwich was certainly plentiful enough to split. read more

Standing outside in the cold or heat for coffee to go to your car and drink is NO ambiance. Ridiculous. So many places to go into, sit, order, use the restroom in comfort. Who needs it? Vacationers can do without it. read more

Mocha Lattes were hot and hit the spot. Blueberry muffin was very good. More like sweet cornbread but still delicious. Service was fast and friendly. Just the way things should be. read more

Really too bad the Red Cup isn't a real coffee house where customers can go inside. Look at artwork, talk to neighbors. Just take out now. It would be a great place for locals to gather through the winter months. Aware that the business makes more money with just the window. Disappointing for the community. And a bit over priced. read more

We spent a long weekend in Boothbay Harbor, Me. We went here our first morning figuring the line outside was promising. We waked there for our coffee every morning and enjoyed their yummy Maine blueberry muffins. We never tried their breakfast food but it looked good. Charming spot, lovely and efficient people serving up good reliable hot and cold drinks. read more

Nearly inedible blueberry muffin, we had the blueberry cinnamon roll the day before which was good so we figured we would try the muffin, so dry and it just tasted " off" not to mention the ridiculous prices. The coffee is average not sure why there's a line for this place. read more

The coffee (iced latte with salted caramel syrup and oatmilk) was smooth and delicious. There's a wheel of choices you can spin to pick your syrup option or just pick on your own but beware not to get overwhelmed as there are so many choices. As a NYer I wasn't sure about the toasted bagel and scallion cream cheese but, to my surprise it was amazing. I sat outside in the rain on the footbridge under my umbrella sipping my perfect ice coffee and enjoying my bagel read more

Ughhh $10 for microwaved egg sandwich?! There are around 5 egg sandwich options so I would avoid. They were nice so they get a star but won't be back. Get something else if you come here. read more

Red Cup Coffeehouse - the outside of the building - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Boothbay Harbor, Maine

We came here on a Saturday mid-morning and the place was BUSY. Despite the long queue winding through and around the full tables, the staff remained friendly and efficient through each transaction. When it was our turn, we didn't feel hurried at all! Grabbed a large cold brew, a croissant filled with nutella, and an almond croissant filled with marzipan. The coffee was great -- I wish there had been a pitcher of alternative milk available on the DIY area (with the lids, stirrers, and stuff), but there was only whole and 1/2 and 1/2. It seems soy or almond is a $1.00 upcharge (a bummer when you just want a splash for your iced coffee). I also wish that the area with baked goods had been labeled - I would have loved to have known what was what, and if anything was gf or vegan. Finally, it's such a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere but that leads to A LOT of big groups and strollers taking up floor space. Part of the confusion with the line was genuinely no one knew where it started or how to get to it because of the obstacle course the room had become. Overall, I did like this place though! I found it charming and was impressed with how the staff handled the never ending line of people. I'd probably come much earlier next time (also, skip the almond croissant and go directly for the nutella filled one -- #yourewelcome)! read more

Red Cup Coffeehouse - a person holding a sandwich wrapped in foil - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Boothbay Harbor, Maine

Went there today. I ordered a latte and bagel with cream cheese. The latte was perfect. The bagel was acceptable but nothing special. The service was efficient. The person taking orders was nice. The person who fulfilled my order was nice. I did notice that person taking online orders seemed grumpy. This is not a place where you can sit inside. There is a window to order and a separate window to pick up. I would go back for a coffee when nearby. I wouldn't order a bagel again. Wish I could give 3 and 1/2 stars. read more

Good drinks, excellent sandwiches, wonderful service, calm and warm atmosphere. Gluten free bread option for sandwiches. Lines seem long but move quickly. Try the green tea jasmine iced tea! Comfortable seating inside and outside with a view of the water, ships, high foot traffic, and a major trolley stop. Clean bathrooms. One of the few places in the area that recycles . Books and board games available for customer use. Clean goblet glasses available for water. The owners work here every day, and they work hard to keep things running smoothly, keep customers happy, and keep the place clean. Tons of artwork on the walls, in the bathrooms, and customer artwork on repurposed wooden shingles hung from the ceiling with twinkle lights. read more

I came here several times while I was in town for the week. Every time my order was made correctly and quickly. Everyone who works here was also very pleasant and friendly!

Great coffee, great people, wonderful atmosphere. And all of the pastries are OMG delicious.

How anyone gave this place any amount of stars beyong 2 is beyond me. Everything is pre-made, from the pre baked eggs that they slap on "homemade" sourdough to the egg borrito that has pre made eggs to what is clearly canned beans. The only reason this tourist trap gets 2 stars from me is bc they have solid iced coffee. I havent eaten McDonald's in about 35 years and would rather go there instead. read more

Wow! Such a great tomato sandwich. Got one for my wife and one for me on gluten free bread. Really tasty, simple, and fresh. There was a bit of a wait because they were one of the few places open for Tuesday lunch. Sat outside at one of the bistro tables. Will definitely be back when we are in Boothbay. read more

The coffee was good but their breakfast sandwich's were not great for what it was. My daughter enjoyed her bagel

A quaint town, a beautiful harbor view, the perfect cup of something warm (or cold brewed), all put together to make you feel welcome. Best of all, it's served to you by a friendly face in a setting you're sure to remember. That's what Dan and his wife put together with The Red Cup Coffee House. Absolutely my favorite place in Maine (really the world) for the perfect cup of coffee. read more
