    Breakfast sandwich and hash browns
    Janice S.

    This is a restaurant in a gas station.. that doesn't make it a bad thing. Because of Covid restrictions there is limited seating and they do have take out. There's a big menu and there's homemade breads and biscuits. Coffee is hot and fresh and the good sign is local folks eat here. Service is great and swift. I ordered an omelette which came with homemade toast. Hubby picked up the breakfast sandwich which he loved. Homemade, fresh and good.. key words for a breakfast place!

    His Meatloaf and my breakfast.

    Stopped by this place for lunch this afternoon and was not disappointed. The food was so good. My husband had the meatloaf and said it was delicious. I had breakfast for lunch. 2 eggs, home fries and their homemade bread for toast. OMG the toast was so light and fluffy and the home fries were hand cut and perfectly done. We will definitely stop by on our way back by at the end of the week.

    Made another stop here (on purpose this time) and was even more impressed! Glad we called ahead…read moreearlier in the day to reserve a table as the restaurant was bustling on the Friday before Christmas. Love the cozy vibe of the interior so much! I opted for the short rib wrap with potato leek soup, and my husband and his friend both got the all you can eat fish and chips. We were all very satisfied with our choices! Can't wait to stop here during my next visit to Maine.

First, the service was amazing. Our waiter was so nice, so attentive, and extremely helpful in terms of describing the foods and helping us choose beers. A lot of their draft beers are from the brewery they have on the property (Knife Edge Brewing). My friend and I liked their Blond Ale and their Moon Shadow Session IPA. The IPA was slightly citrusy, crisp, cold, and refreshing. Exactly how you would want a beer. For the food, we had the crab cake appetizer, the caesar salad, and the seafood pappardelle (pasta). Everything was absolutely delicious. The crab cakes were wonderful. Flavorful but not grossly fishy, soft, and the sauce accompaniment was great. My friend and I split the caesar salad and the pasta, so the portions you see of those in my pictures are HALF of what they actually are. The caesar was solid -- a nice sauce and clean, fresh romaine. The croutons seemed homemade and were really good. The pasta had three types of seafood -- shrimp, scallops, and Maine lobster. All delicious and with a tasty garlic lemon cream sauce . It was a good amount of seafood as well. I highly recommend this place. It's a little off the beaten path but well worth it!! As a plus, we spotted a wild fox while driving through the property to the restaurant!

Honestly, we couldn't believe the google reviews on it were so high until we tried it. Mom's friends who travel through here all the time recommended it to us. The website gave us an accurate current menu with options we both wanted, and Wah-lah!!! It proved to be a hit. Mom had the clam chowder and loved how packed it was with potatoes, veggies, and clams, with excellent flavor and a HUGE dinner roll - Yummmmoooo! I had liver and onions... I know, most of you might gross out... but think of Pâté! Or think of Foie Gras! And you will be pleasantly surprised at how this diner in the middle of know where just nails it! And then I upgraded my side to onion rings- batter was not too thick so you could still enjoy the onion. And batter had great flavor too. The waitress/service was kind, friendly Canadian, as I've grown to love and expect on my travels here. But still, 5 stars for friendly service! The prices were reasonable and the dessert list was extensive! Thank you Murray's!!! Xoxo - weary travelers
