I still love this place as much today as I did several years ago when I first reviewed. One of my favorite things to order is the cinnamon roll pancakes. On this recent trip I even got cinnamon roll crepes! How fun. My husband ordered a breakfast sandwich using muffin tops as the bread. He loved it, says it's one of the best he's ever had. Always fantastic service! read more

A refreshing mom and pop breakfast place. Clean country chic vibe and set up with lots of wood accents. The hostess was cordial and timely. The service was excellent and followed up routinely and the food was delicious and filling. No complaints for this amazing restaurant. We will definitely be making another visit here! read more

While we didn't have much of a wait before being escorted to our table we had local art, desserts to go and seating to us. Interactive placemat made the time fly while waiting for our breakfast. Today's featured a crossword where we looked for inventions from the 1950s! Dining area is large and save for a couple of kids that let out a holler every now and then the ambiance was chill and welcoming. Servings were large and flavor was turned up all the way! We recommend the breakfast potatoes, omelettes, English muffins, French toast, pancakes and iced coffee. Loads of parking alongside the building as well as behind the building. With this business on the first floor it was easily accessible to everyone in our party. read more

One of the best lobster rolls of my life and other food is perfect. 10/10 would definitely recommend

First time here!! Called ahead but they were not on a wait when we arrived. seated immediately and host was amazing like our sever was attentive and outstanding. Food came out in under 10 min. I had the Mexicali Benedict. It was amazing and hot, my mom Bacon, eggs home fries and toast. Hot and delicious. Even the coffee cups were larger than any restaurant and that to was amazing. Tipped 30% because I was that impressed. It wasn't loud and everyone around us looked like they were enjoying themselves as much. Sorry didn't take pictures. Totally recommend. read more

Wow! We had two different corn beef breakfast options and both were amazing. Great flavor and so much food. We could have easily split an entry. It gets busy - and easy to see why, so call ahead. We will be back. read more

I stopped in here for my first time and the food was delicious! What amazed me the most was how well the team of ladies worked together. I chatted with Cassie and Heather for a few minutes and also noticed another server, Jackie and their hostess Savanna who were also extremely kind and hard at work! I loved my omelette and the home fries the most. We will be back- keep up the great work! read more

Awesome omelet and homefries! Service was top notch and the atmosphere was tidy and clean

Was finally able to eat here and had such a great experience. I learned from my past non-eating experience to call ahead and make sure my name was added to the wait list. We arrived and met our friend there with only a five minute wait to be seated at our table. Food was delicious. Amazing crepes and even better homemade corned beef hash! My daughter got a Mickey pancake with chocolate chips and my husband was able to order a meal that included two of his favorite brunch items-- biscuits and gravy and corned beef hash. Ordered a sriracha Bloody Mary and it tasted good however it wasn't overwhelming with flavor to me. Cute spot. Friendly service. Yummy food. We need more restaurants like this in the area :) I see many more visits here in my family's future! read more

The food was delicious! Our waitress was great and service was quick. We definitely plan on coming back.

Working man's breakfast , Bacon Cheddar Crepes and cinna cakes ! All great ! Coffee here is very good as well ! Hash browns cooked perfectly . This was my guests first time here. They were impressed ! Got breakfast at lunch. Took longer than regular lunch items. It was fine . We were not in a rush . Our waitress was fine but never offered refills on the coffee. Had to flag her down . I have been here multiple times. Had not noticed the food grade score until today. There were some serious offenses. I hope you have corrected these problems ! These were some of the worst I've seen in the area . I will definitely check these again before returning . read more

If you like eggs built into dishes 100 different ways, this is definitely a place for you. Great breakfast brunch and lunch options.

Food and service were outstanding. I had breakfast poutine and it was great. I took my 88 year old Mom and I asked her if she liked Terry and Maxine's. She said YES and I will tell my friends too. read more

The service, food, and ambiance was awesome! The staff was super friendly and were on top of it! We never once needed for anything. The food... well it was fantastic. Normally places that have breakfast, lunch and dinner at any time don't always make everything perfectly but this place surprised me. Each dish was perfect. Who ever the cook is *chefs kiss* This is a gem on the side of the road that doesn't look like much but has it all. I very much enjoy that the bar is in a separate room away from the dining area! I'll be back for sure! read more

MUST SEE (eat)!!!! Amazingly delicious food and VERY affordable. We got pineapple juice, coffee, and a mimosa for drinks as well as two entrees for only $35! Not bad! I had the Terry and Maxine breakfast sandwich - AMAZING! My hubby ordered one of the hash/eggs entrees. VERY good! Our server was SO nice, very accommodating and the perfect server. EASY 5 stars! read more

Always delicious & friendly staff!! Always seated immediately and accommodated every need.

Ordered the ribeye tonight. It was cooked beautifully. My problem was what is going on with the garlic potatoes and rice? The potatoes were brown and yuck. The rice tasted funny. I heard the two owner care about the place the names after family. There is a limit to prepping food a head of time. Just try the stuff for yourself or ask us. My wife had the club and it was really good. Please keep trying and don't get offended. There are not many family restaurants like yours around anymore. We will be back. Thank you. read more

Terry & Maxine's absolutely surpassed our expectations of a diner. We were impressed by the extensive menu, the portion sizes, and the flavors in the dishes themselves. Everything tasted homemade and authentic. We ordered the Mexicali Benedict (pictured), Irish Benedict, and side of French toast. For two, this ended up being a lot of food, so we brought some home. This was our first time here but know this will become a regular spot for us. And the staff were kind and prompt! Couldn't have asked for better. read more

My husband and I went for a rare brunch date yesterday, we wanted to try something new (to us). Terry & Maxines did not disappoint! Hubs had Irish Benedict and I had hash poutine. We each had a sriracha Bloody Mary which was served with a pickle! ~happy dance~ Everything was delicious! The menu is huge and we can't wait to go back and try more items. Pam was our server and she was wonderful! Very sweet, helpful and patient with our many questions. The only thing I would say we were missing is the Bloody Mary's need horseradish. Other than that everything was perfect, and I think we found our new favorite place to eat! read more

Food & service are great! We're from MA and make a pint to go whenever we're in ME. Love, love, love it!!!

Great update to website. In the past I haven't got very good customer service and haven't gone back until recently. Hopefully now they have their hours figured out in their hours match their sign, and the sign matches the website so there's continuity with the times that they're actually open. It's pretty unprofessional to go in and be told by a server that they are closed even though their signage says that they're open and the server made a mistake in the day telling us they were closed early even though it was not a day that they were supposed to be closed early We got take out today and the food was great. I do you have a problem with paying $1.50 for a tablespoon and a half of guacamole. This is more of a .50 add-on. Not cool to nickel and dime customers like that. read more

We sat at the bar for breakfast. Delicious food, prompt and friendly staff. Great atmosphere. We will definitely be back.

Omg! Great breakfast! I travelled from the south shore of Massachusetts to spend the day with my son last week in the Auburn area and your place was his recommendation. This has to be in my tops of all-time breakfast spots! I'll be coming back for sure very soon! Our server was outstanding as well! I usually take food pics but I'll make sure of our next visit we will. read more

Super excited to finally find my new breakfast haunt. Service is superb and food is presented like it's ready for its closeup before digging into it! read more

I still love Terry and Maxine's for breakfast, but we've not had great luck having dinner there. Tonight we waited WAY too long for our food - it was after six on a rainy Friday night, and there were only about six tables occupied. Or food arrived cold and overcooked (I already had to ask to have my tea reheated - this was literally the third visit that I had to send back lukewarm tea). EVERYTHING on both my plate and my husband's was cold. The food tasted good, but was not enjoyable due to the temperature. The waitress then brought us our check without asking whether we wanted dessert - which we did. We ordered the lemon cheesecake and the gf flourless cake. We got the cheesecake, but the "flourless cake" was obviously chocolate cream pie (see photo). We pointed this out, and the waitress insisted that it was the cake. Needless to say we didn't keep arguing, and I couldn't eat the "cake," because it was pie, with a crust, and I didn't trust that it was gluten free. We will still likely go back for breakfast (their corned beef hash still rocks), but we're done going for dinner. read more

Yum. How'd I wait so long? What a creative flippin' menu! I'm super jazzed to find a place that has more than omelettes and diner food on the menu-- but it's cooked like diner food!! I got a breakfast sammy. No big deal right? WRONG. Did I get it on a bagel? No. Did I get it on wheat toast? NO. I got it on BLUEBERRY MUFFIN TOPS, WHAAAAAT! Yes. I got crepes. Delish bacon + cheddar crepes with sour cream. (Add a lil hot sauce, get wild.) We got the blueberry coconut French toast. (Or was it pancakes? I don't remember but I'll add the picture and be like 'duh.') Our server was sweet, and she seemed happy to be at work. (I have NEVER been pumped to be at work on Saturday Morning, but she sure seemed to be) and she was attentive (not only to us but to all of her tables. I can't remember her name (I know; I'm batting 1000) but I'll ask when I go tomorrow for more bomb@$$ breakfast. I'm a fan. read more

Totally worth the wait. My apple cinnamon crepes were amazing!!!! I highly recommend this off the beaten path restaurant.

We were looking for a last minute breakfast before we had to head out and this place was recommend. We did have a small wait but the food was totally worth it! The service was great! Our server made a few recommendations because it was our first time there. Can't wait to go back! read more

Great home style food and very pleasant waitstaff. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone. Was a very pleasant experience

My favorite breakfast place in the area, by far. Do yourself a favor and get a cinnamon bun pancake. They also have set the standard for spiked coffees, they're incredible. Always friendly service and they're also really fast most of the time. Absolutely worth a visit. read more

The breakfast was AMAZING. it's literally one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. If you like corned beef hash, the homemade maple (very subtle) hash is a must. I wish I lived nearby! read more
