I had the "dill bread" sandwich, described as scrambled eggs (2), avocado, crispy bacon, and white cheddar on homemade dill bread. How could I not? Homemade dill bread, you ask? This place is a haven for amazing baked goods, but since I didn't try those, you're going to have to go try for yourself. The dill bread was fresh and tasty, all I could ask for. The rest of the sandwich was exactly as described. The eggs were fluffy, but not dry. The bacon was lean and smoky, and crispy - just the way I like it. The combination was just right, and a filling lunch. As we were eating, they were bringing out more baked goods to the display counter, but we didn't indulge. Well worth a stop for breakfast or lunch.

I can't wait to go back and get it again. The only bad thing about this place is that they don't post a list of their flavors with descriptions. How hard would that be? It is annoying to see lots of flavors with names that you have no idea what they are.

Cool little place…read more The claim to fame here is their unique flavors, many of which I've never seen anywhere else. That being said, many are fruit flavored, which I don't like so much myself. Their more typical flavors are about on par with other local independent ice cream shops. I've heard rumors that the quality tanked after the owner left. Maybe this is why. What makes this place special is how it's ingrained into the landscape. The view from the back patio is one of the coolest of any place I've ever been. It's worth a stop just for that.

The dark chocolate is AMAZING, was not too bitter at all and was quite literally addicting, I got it every day I was here. They have a bunch of interesting flavors that you WILL NOT see anywhere else, such as maple fig jalapeño or banana with hot Cheetos. Granted I did not try any of these "interesting flavors," but I am very glad it is not all they have. For the little space there is inside, the lines flow easily and you get your ice cream very quickly. The servers know what is in every flavor, and do not mind giving out samples! My one gripe is that they don't tell you they have more flavors in the back freezer, there is no sign or anything advertising it, but luckily I found great, "normal" flavors in the front case."

We were walking around town and I remember seeing this place on the map. So we decided to at least…read moreget a visual of this place as it had positive reviews on Yelp - avg rating of 4.5 It was still fairly early, however we could see the line was forming. We decided to give it a chance, since most of the people there seemed to be local or at least seasonal locals. Given this was just a "snack" for us, we decided on a hotdog, cheeseburger and shared some fries. The ordering process can get a little chaotic, as there is a lot of conversation at the grill with orders being placed and prepared and people chatting in line. We placed our order and were given a number and you could stay at the window (which gets really crowded) or you can have a seat at the picnic table. I decided to wait near the window while I took pictures for Yelp. From what I could hear the prices of the seafood options are "high" although I didn't think it was unreasonable given how fresh the seafood is. We didn't even get seafood and really enjoyed our food. Very fresh and didn't have old grill flavor. We would definitely return if in the area, I would love to try the haddock if we had more time.

You scream. I…read morescream. We all scream... for site made ice cream on a working Maine dairy farm ! This is a special place... a farm on a hill with their own farm shop featuring glass-bottled milk, sandwiches, and most importantly... Ice Cream ! Starting mid-April or so, they open up "The Barnyard" which is a nice little petting zoo for the kids... and occasionally a "Goat Yoga" spot for adults... which is just so uniquely crazy it almost makes me wish I did yoga. Not into yoga...? I get you. Lucky for us, they also have a hardware store / lumber yard, so you could feasibly come for Mocha Chip and stay for the 4x4 milled posts, and that's not an experience you'll soon get at a national big-box lumber store. Or a Baskin Robbins, for that matter. This place is an experience. The farm is gorgeous, the staff are friendly, the animals are fun, the lumber yard is definitely there, and the product... well that's where it's at... it's excellent. There are a few working dairy farms like this one dotted around the state, and I encourage you to check out each and every one. Smiling Hill Farm is that extra special sort of place, where it's only a few miles drive outside of Portland, but it feels worlds away and it's so, so worth the effort to get to. They also have ready-to-go quarts in the freezer, their various dairy offerings, and rotating, seasonal farm shop fare. Support your local farmers! Also... I've found the local barn cats to be super friendly and just a treat to hang with. YMMV
