The coffee & tea is amazing and so is the atmosphere. The people that make the coffee are great and so nice but the people behind the front counter taking orders need to lighten up! Maybe it was just the girl that took my order, she seemed new/ inexperienced & young but she could have been a lot nicer in my opinion. Overall great spot read more

This is my favorite coffeeshop in Ogunquit! Having known the owner from when she opened a coffeeshop near Boston and grew that shop into one of the best in the area, tirelessly improving the pastries, food, tea selection and coffee/espresso beverages over the years, I was more than excited to see what she had in store for her new shop in Ogunquit. I was not disappointed! From the atmosphere details--recycling wood from her grandfather's barn to maintain a cozy atmosphere and using the same wood to employ a local designer to make furniture for the indoor/outdoor seating to the dog friendly waterbowl waiting out front and the Kornhole! and giant checkers set on the patio, it was an instant love affair. The coffee is great and the espresso makers are continually making better and better drinks as they learn tips from the owner, always there with a friendly smile. And the pastries, well, let's just say...THEY ARE AMAZING! Try this place out! Parking, free wifi, friendliness and growing fast, you won't be disappointed! read more

I try to make it here at least once a week; and every time I do it has been nothing but an awesome experience! Extremly friendly staff, great coffee and I can't get enough of the ridiculous chocolate chip scones!! Keep up the good work I hope business continues to grow! See you tomorrow! read more

The best coffee and yummy treats! Excellent staff and amazing little spot. Amy and crew work hard to make every experience memorable! Tell everyone you know and everyone you don't know! read more

Baked goods are fresh from their kitchen. The variety of pastries was good, but there weren't a lot of simple choices, and mostly a variety of scones. I like scones, but just muffins and scones aren't the only pastries for me personally (even though the muffins and scones are very good), wish there were other choices as well. read more

Everything is solid or more for breakfast or lunch. For breakfast, the egg sandwiches are quite good, but the scones and biscuits are where they make their mark. Features a nice vibe somewhere in between coffee shop and lunch cafe - indoor and outdoor seating right on the edge of the center. Perhaps the best place in Ogunquit to grab a casual bite when you don't want to deal with a restaurant, with its diverse offerings and comfortable environment. Certainly the best place in town to start off a day with a coffee and snack. read more

The staff here is super friendly and seems to know everyone who walks in the door. The atmosphere is really comfortable and relaxed. It was a great way to start the day! The food was really fresh. I highly recommend a breakfast sandwich with the sundried tomato spread. Really nice selection of caffeinated and decaffeinated teas, too! :-) read more

Backyard Coffeehouse & Eatery - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

Great coffee, great teas!!! My mom & sister had coffee, my other sister had a mocha latte & i was feeling under the weather but their ginger lemon tea made my day! Nice atmosphere!! Didn't eat anything when I went but I'm sure if the food is as good as the coffee and tea then it'll be great! read more

I wanted to love this place but the staff was just so rude. One member of our party was in a wheelchair and they refused to hold the door. (Seriously. I've never had that happen anywhere else.) They got three of our orders wrong and wouldn't -- not couldn't, but wouldn't because "we need to keep our small bills" -- change a $50 at 11 a.m. in the morning, forcing me to go to a store to change it instead and come back with small change. And when I tried to complain to the manager, she just said "my staff is great" as if I was the problem for showing up. Ugh. Never again. read more

if you like your caffeine with a side of folksy (and a sammich) in Ogonquit here ya go.

Any chance I get to sneak over to visit Amy and the rest of her friendly staff is a welcomed treat... The coffee's great and weather its for an awesome breakfast sandwich or lunch to go it is always delicious!!! This is a must stop when visiting Ogunquit! read more

The place is cool with a hippie vibe. The parking lot is always packed and a holes park there and run into town taking up spots for real customers. The sandwich options are limited but OK if you are desperate to eat. Only chilled gazpacho available when it was 50 out and raining. The drinks are all weird brands and not regular bottled water available. read more

I'm not sure why this place doesn't have a 5-star review yet. The coffee is really fantastic. Maybe you have to be a coffee snob to appreciate just how much better the coffee is here than at most places; if so, then take my word for it: I am, and it is. read more

Ogunquit finally gets a great coffeehouse! The shop features wonderful coffee from Bard Roasters out of Portland. Excellent espresso. Make sure you try one of the featured pourover coffees, custom ground and brewed for the customer. NIce owner. read more

Coffee was good . But the breakfast sandwich was awful. There's no flavor and tastes like something anyone can make at home . I don't know what the bake foods taste like but certainly don't get any breakfast sandwich . read more

This is the best coffee I've ever had! I went to Ogunquit for a week and stopped by here multiple times each day! I tried a variety of their coffees and they are not to be beat! I bought some to take home with me and I can't wait to get back to buy more! read more

Food is good. I did have a gripe. I asked for an egg white breakfast sandwich and they said no we don't carry those. They were making the sandwich from a fresh egg and I said just leave out the yoke and they said they don't serve them that way. Its a silly thing but it kind of bugged me. Maybe they have changed their policy. Otherwise the food is good. read more

Was desperate for a good breakfast after the bad B&B food. So we stopped at Backyard not knowing what to expect. WOW on the coffee, pastries, full breakfast and free wifi. I thought I was in San Francisco. Terrific. It's on my list for Maine breakfasts and should be on yours too. Pleasant staff. read more

My wife and I were roaming around Ogunquit when we stumbled upon BC. I grabbed my phone and said "lets see what my people have to say about this". After taking a gander at all the reviews I said this seems like a very competent coffee shop, let go give it a shot! Come to find out they are very competent; great coffee, great service. While the iced latte I ordered wasn't as bold or rich as I was hoping, it showed great balance and wonderful flavors. What I really appreciated was the coffee to ice ratio. A lot of places will over ice the latte and you end up with 5 sips. This one was perfectly iced. I deducted 2 stars for oddness. It didn't feel as comfortable environment-wise as I had hoped. I like to get my coffee and sit and enjoy it but I had this lets get going feeling. Also the preparation area felt unorganized and out of sorts. The simple syrup had no label and I just had to hope it wasnt water. It wasnt. But I had a 50/50 shot of it not being SS. Overall very pleased and next time we are in the area I will stop by again. read more

Solid coffee, tea, etc. Unbelievable pastries. Most impressed with breakfast sandwich, which was massive, had high quality bacon and perfectly cooked scrambled eggs! All for very fair prices. read more

Stopped in here on a whim to grab coffee to go and use the restroom. So glad we did, as we now know where we'll go for coffee EVERY time we're in the area. Excellent coffee and the soy lattes were perfectly done. We didn't have lunch but looking at the sandwiches going to the tables around us, we'll be back for those soon. It's also a really pleasant space, clean, light-filled, with local art, and a very friendly vibe. read more

Love Backyard, it's my new favorite spot in OGT and totally family friendly. The staff were so welcoming and friendly and they even have a creative children's menu, which is basically unheard of in most places. The outdoor patio is well shaded and a great spot for lunch. My sandwich was delicious and fresh and the home-brewed tea was perfect. I cant' wait to go back! read more

This Place has the best sandwhiches ! I stop in everytime I'm in Ogunquit to get a delcious sandwhich for the beach. The place has a very cool atmosphere and the service couldn't be friendlier. I highly recommend you stop in for a bite or coffee. read more

Backyard Coffeehouse is the perfect addition to the Ogunquit scene! This spot is cozy, comfortable, and heartwarming: from the sandwiches, to the sweet treats, to the coffee-selection and the staff, it's all just friendly, delicious, and welcoming. They even offer kid-friendly "baby chinos," which are the endearing warmed-milk and chocolate. All the little touches add up to make this place just all-around awesome: giant chess, free wifi, cinnamon donut muffins, cool art on the wall that showcases local artists, and delicious coffee and soy options! Amy, who owns backyard, is super friendly, and is awesome to talk to as well. I can't say enough good things! Go there for your delicious latte fix now! read more

These people are awesome. The shop is set up so nicely where you can stand back and read the board deciding what to have. Or you can be enticed by the yummy baked goods presented up front. The coffee is fresh, the food is made with care. The staff actually speak to you as a person, not a next in line. (They even speak French if you need it.) The bathroom is clean, the setting is light and airy. It's a great addition to Ogunquit. read more

Ok coffee, can't say it's more or less than that. However, in a city where just finding espresso is a miracle, they deserve the fourth star

The only place in town to get a perfectly drawn espresso, wonderful crema, great body, no bitterness. I showed up right when they opened at 7 (on sunday) and had a currant scone that was crispy on the outside, tender inside and great texture - and still hot from the oven! read more

love this place! the coffee is great and my friend said it was the best iced latte she has ever had. loved everything about the atmosphere; the people, the decor, the music, everything! had one breakfast sandwich that was really good on some delicious bread. will be going back whenever i'm passing through. read more

What a great spot! Couldn't find it at first but so happy we asked - and there it was on the side of the parking lot.....great scone and coffee. read more

What a disappointment..we are here visiting, heard they had homemade pop tarts. Went out of our way to visit..when we asked this snarky clerk..she said no. So I asked if they ever had made them she said didntshe is new (only worked there 1 year) really? I asked if "maybe" she could go out of her way to ask someone else. They had many years ago. If only she had maybe looked up, smiled and answered the question by asking a co-worker. I want her to know that I am over the situation but so sad that she needs to go through day after day so unfriendly, uninformative and unkind. I can't believe she has lasted a year. What we did end up purchasing, we hope is good for the high price. read more

I stopped in for breakfast and coffee on my way from Kennebunkport to MA on 7/12/2014. I had a bacon, egg and cheese on French bread that was delicious. It was made to order with a fluffy, omelet-style egg and bacon that was perfectly crisp. The cheese was good too (cheddar, maybe?). I had a regular iced coffee, and my only regret that the one size that's available was on the small side :) I will definitely go back to try their sandwiches, and I am also excited to try their cheese board with a nice bottle of wine. The staff was friendly and efficient also. read more

Best ice coffee in Ogunquit. (Been coming here for 10 years.) Muffins were pretty good. So were the breakfast sandwiches. Yogurt parfait was yummy but had some mushy blueberries which I had to remove. Staff was friendly and the place is adorable. They use sustainable products. Outside seating too. read more

I asked for a decaf coffee and they told me they were too busy to make it. Really? No decaf coffee made at 9 AM? There were 3 people in line. Really poor experience. I went over to the Cumberland Farms next door. They had decaf. read more

Great spot in Ogunquit! My egg, ham, annd cheese breakfast sandwich was exactly what I was looking for.

The staff is extremely nice and polite. The place looks great with the upcycled barn wood look and mason jars. Coffee is AMAZING, one of the best I've had. We had the the egg, bacon & cheese wrap/bagel. Too much egg and under seasoned but the bacon they use is very nice. Go for the baked goods, worth it. read more

Hard to imagine better coffee, muffins, scones, turnovers, etc. We were visiting Ogunquit for the weekend but if I lived there, I'd be at Backyard every morning. A beautiful, comfortable, hip space. And the owner, Amy, seems as friendly and genuine as they come. read more

i discovered this place when on vacation last week.loved the food and space so much that i went in every day of the vacation for breakfast. laid back atmosphere and yummy food. loved the scrambled egg sandwich with sundried tomato spread and my husband loved the maple scone. i miss this place and wish one would pop up in my neighborhood. read more
