    Adorable restaurant on the inside and the two ladies who took our take out order were so sweet!! My family of 4 loved everything we ordered the only thing odd is the name of the restaurant... anything with cat in it doesn't scream tasty to me, but bypass that and stop here!! Delicious!!!

    We came on a Wednesday morning on our way into Portland. It was much classier and much more spacious than we expected! The space was beautiful and clean. All the staff were friendly and welcoming. Menu is full of so many options!!! I opted for the avocado toast and added an egg. My boyfriend got the salmon & eggs Benedict. Avocado toast + egg - it was okay. The avocado was much more smashed than I desired. Chunkier could give it more texture. It could've used a bit more flavor as well. salmon and eggs Benedict - it was great! My boyfriend said it was very flavorful and very well done! He would definitely get again! We sat outside and it was a beautiful day! We will definitely come back next time we road trip to Portland!

    Brand new space outside of downtown Belfast. White tile, huge windows, plenty of space and parking. Staff really trying hard. Checked on us often though not table service. Burger and 2x sandwiches were both great. Russian tea.cake was a little large and dry. Mint chip milk shake was great. Clean bathrooms.

    Wow. What a breakfast. And the staff and environment is equally great. Make this a stop for sure.

    Wow, today's. breakfast was truly amazing! One of the best lattes I've ever had. the coffee itself was bold but not bitter and the foam was thick and rich and lasted the entire drink. We had the chicken and waffle that was perfect and could have fed two. The chicken was so tender for a fried item and the waffle was light and airy. The red flannel hash was perfect! Lots of tender corned beef and just the right amount of the delicious beet slaw. My over easy eggs were cooked perfectly and even the toast was awesome. One of the best breakfasts I've had out in years!

    Hash in the Pan Locally-owned breakfast spot that's been in operation since 1994. It's gone thru multiple iterations over the years, as it started out as pastry and Italian soda joint, to now being a full-service breakfast and lunch spot. They also just recently moved down the street into these larger, more open digs. The Good: *Order at the counter and they bring it out to you. *Self-serve brewed coffee *Friendly service *Large private lot *Iced Mocha was tasty and had good flavor without being overly sweet. *Croissants are a carb option with your breakfast! No upcharge *Be sure to ask for the homemade jam *First time trying Red Flannel Hash, which evidently is a Maine staple. Essentially it is corned beef hash but with cooked beets and it was really tasty. The earthy sweetness of beets married well to the salty, beefy hash and when combined with the vevety runny egg yolks it made for a hearty and tasty breakfast. The Meh: *Menu is huge, which I'm not a fan of, but if you like variety they've got you covered. Conclusion: Nice spot for a hearty meal and a friendly smile while visiting Belfast.

    As we headed out to take in Acadia National Park, we searched for a nearby coffee shop to grab some well-made coffee. We found it nearby in Belfast. A uniquely named restaurant - Bell the Cat. We were greeted promptly by the owner, a delightful gentleman that was ready to seat us immediately. When we explained we were just here for takeout coffee, he escorted us to a second main counter where they were doing a bustling takeout business. We grabbed two coffees as multiple people came in to grab their breakfast pastries and food to go. The coffee was very good - hot, bold, and flavorful. It made the drive to Acadia so much easier. Give this place a try, it's delightful.

    Tucked behind the main drag in Belfast, this food truck and seating area is inviting and a great…read morespot for a bite. The hot dogs are gourmet but I am a vanilla eater so I got the regular hot dog with mustard and relish. Delish. Toppings are on the hot dog when you receive your food so if you want less or more of something on the hotdog you should let them know in advance. Seating area is beside the truck and had fresh flowers on each table.

    100% a 5+ gourmet hot dog!…read more Maybe the best dog north of Coney Island. Must try! Everything from bun, to toppings, to dog, to presentation, and service was spot on perfect. Highly recommend Moody Dog, Get here, however you can, the trip is worth it! Tons of gourmet dog options and toppings. We had a shroom dog and a BLT dog. See the pics! Those dogs were as good as they look! Maybe better than they look! Service was professional and polite. Out server offered some selection assistance which was helpful and appreciated because there are many gourmet dog choices as well as breakfast all day! Moody Dog is located behind the iconic Rollies Bar in Belfast Maine. Moodys is an eclectic street art decorated stationary food truck with an outdoor seating area. As a bonus part of the seating area has a partial view of Historic Belfast Harbor. Oh and shout out to the onsite owner preparing each delicious and savory work of art! The owner took a few moments to interact with customers between orders. Big plus! And clear sign of owner buy-in and commitment to Moody's customers. We will return, we highly recommend Moodys! Check out Moodys on Isntagram, they have a really cool page with tons of pics and specials!
