    I continue to be so impressed with the atmosphere and the friendly staff and owners. I have family…read moremembers who need to eat gluten free and the food is so delicious we all love to eat the same things. It has made our summer to have this convenient location with top quality food. The owners and their daughter go above and beyond to make sure customers are happy. This is a must stop when visiting our hometown in Damariscotta! My friends love when i show up with the surprise baked good of the day!! Thank you for making Damariscotta known for being a friendly and welcoming town!!

    If you are absolutely desperate for gluten free baked goods MAYBE you want to give this place a try…read morebut otherwise avoid at all cost. The food here is god awful. Even the non-gluten foods are mediocre at best. Total waste of money and barely edible. I can't help but wonder who is writing these 4 & 5 stars reviews‼ I do know for a fact that a negative review has been taken down because there was one here a week ago that's no longer here. Can't help but wonder about others...The food is atrocious yet 4 stars?? I'm a long time (30 year) gluten free person, not by choice. Back 30 years ago I was making my own gf baked goods, but the chemistry was early stages so most recipes didn't hit the mark. GF baking has come a LONG way since then, however not at this place--still dry and overly sweet, or wet and undercooked--most items barely resemble their description. To add insult to the injury of the expensive and surprisingly bad food, staff is unwelcoming and quite rude right out of the gate. Do yourself a favor--go to Wild Flour Bakery in Brunswick for FABULOUS GF baked goods. Or, if you're in Portland hit up Holy Donut for gluten free donuts that are actual donuts! YUM. Both are worth the drive!

    Farm 23 is located outside of town. It is open only till 2 PM on weekdays and closes earlier on…read moreweekends. I don't have the exact hours but you might want to check because I've been there when they're closed. I do know they open at seven and on the weekend, you wanna get there early because they do sell out of things. All their pastries are killer. Today bought a blueberry muffin, a maple cinnamon roll and the special of the day, which I don't know the name of, but it was a biscuit with clotted cream and homemade raspberry jam made out of the owners garden. It was scrumptious. It is also a little store and you can buy all kinds of cute things in there, there is an area to eat both inside and outside, but I am only talking of three or four tables in each location. They also make coffee drinks and they also have croissants with eggs and bacon. Have not had one of those in years so I can't really comment on that. Anyway, well worth a little side trip to this darling bakery.

    What a fun stop. I looked up local coffee shops and this was close and had great reviews. I'm so…read moreglad we popped in. I got a latte and a gift for my granddaughter--so many items for babies and children's gifts. I asked how long they've been there and was told 6 years. I said wow, you made it through COVID, that says a lot. He replied that's when they opened, right before the world closed for business. He said the shop items got them through the worst of it. Every place has a story. It's nice when you meet someone willing to chat for a while. They have the best looking baked goods too!! The outdoor eating steals inviting--they've even prepared for your furry friends with water bowls and a doggie bed.

    Highest quality pastries, breads, and desserts, plus pizza slices, frittatas, and sandwiches. Very…read morecute interior, with exposed brick, glass cases, beautifully displayed food. Right next door (connected on the inside) is a seating area for eating in, where they also serve gelato and coffees. This place is a gem. I wish it was a little closer to my home, but now that I know about it, I will stop in every time I go to or through Bath. We tried several items, ate some there, and brought some home. We tried the pizza, a veggie frittata, and 3 Cornetti which is an Italian version of croissants, slight denser, just as flakey, just a buttery, maybe even more delicious. We tried the almond, the raspberry and the chocolate...all were incredible. They also have a nice selection of bottled Italian soft drinks. I tried the rose water. The fragrance and flavor of rose was amazing. Will definitely be back.

    Absolutely adorable little pastry/bread shop in the most unexpected place...Bath is small as it is…read morebut this little shop would be welcomed in the biggest of cities and would easily compete with the best to do it. I just wanted to try everything because not only was it presented beautifully, it was baked with love and that is very evident. Start your day with any variety of bread, lunch is covered there as well, and make sure you make it by 7pm for a delicious gelato for desert. Why the 4-star after all this gushing? Their espresso is inexcusably bad for having such a high bar for everything else they're doing here. Clean that up, and this place goes from being really good, to untouchable.
