I came here with my roommate earlier this week. The place wasn't too busy, there were maybe two…read morecars in the drive-thru and we were the only customers inside waiting to order. We ordered a 32oz Rush, a 24oz Rush, and cinnamon rolls. When our drinks came out, both were made as 24oz. Mistakes happen, so my roommate politely pointed out that one of them was supposed to be a 32oz. Instead of remaking the drink or putting more rush into it, the barista simply poured it into a larger cup and filled the rest with ice. Normally I wouldn't complain about something minor like a size mix-up, but there's over a $2 price difference between the 24oz and 32oz drinks, so it was disappointing to feel like I didn't actually receive what I paid for.

We'd been traveling since the wee hours of the morning and decided to grab some local coffee before making the final push to Bar Harbor. We found this spot on Yelp. When we arrived to find them inside a gas station convenience store, we were apprehensive. But, once we made our way inside, we found a cute little coffee counter with a menu full of fun specialty espresso beverages. Their drinks trend toward the sweeter side but the espresso is solid and the beverages were good. The service was friendly and they have a drive thru. Get to it!

It's so nice to have any sort of vegan offerings in the area and they have some great basic ones!…read more I ordered the tropical smoothie which was really nice but could have been bigger as I drank it really quickly and normally it takes me a while to finish a drink but I was done with it in less than 2 minutes. We also each got a really nice vegan cupcake and while it was delicious, it was very crumbly and made a mess on both of us. The frosting was fabulous and made up for the crumbles. We just went for a morning treat but we'd be back for some of their other offerings like the falafel wrap for example. Definitely worth a stop in if you're vegan and need a quick, clean bite but also of course many more options for non vegans as well.

Definitely a family favorite. They have always been able to seat our family of 6.

They source their ice cream from Giffords! That's heckin! I got the cookie monster smush. It was delicious. Everyone was having a great time, the workers were friendly, and the music was good, but I think they are shooting themselves in the foot with all the AI "art". Please, for the love of Augusta, I'm begging the two Maine guys to change their signage. Not only is it ugly but it's so antithetical to what Maine is all about. Mainers love art by other Mainers! It has so much personality! I saw a hand painted painting of the Smush logo in the store and it looked so much better than the sign. If it had more of that I'd be OK with coming back. The place is busy right now, I think, because it's a novelty, but I don't see this eyesore lasting on Main Street if they commit to this look. Considering the damage AI does to ecosystems and how artists are being displaced, I just can't keep supporting them. And it's a bummer too, bc if it weren't for that, I would be telling people allll about this place and going in several times a summer. It is so up my alley! If it was a Pepsi sign with the name in block letters I would be more forgiving than I am now. But as it is, I can only give Smush a review of three stars, at the most. I really hope they consider changing it up because I would love to see this place stick around and become part of the community.

We love the Kennebec breakfast sandwich and the lemon blueberry scones. The kids love the giant chocolate chip cookies. I love ordering through the app, because it gives you the opportunity to earn points that you can use toward future purchases. Note, you can't order pastries or cookies etc through the app - the stock changes too frequently to be able to post those. The staff at this location were very nice and I saw the owner of the chain pop in and greet everyone with a smile. It was really nice - like seeing a superstar. We were there on Mother's day and so naturally it was busy around morning/brunch time. I placed an order 30 minutes in advance and stopped in right around the pick up time. I bought some offering while I was waiting. Special mother's day cookies and some of the regular offerings - chocolate chip cookies and lemon blueberry scones. The couple behind me placed a bagel sandwich order and their order was ready in about 10 minutes, which seemed really reasonable and amazing given how busy they were. I continued to watch in person orders being fulfilled. I stood and waited patiently. I inquired once and was told it would be a couple of minutes - this was shared with me even though he didn't actually check any of the slips or ask for my name. I waited. 20 minutes after my online order was estimated to be ready, they yell out, "Is anyone waiting for an online order" I raised my hand. The panicked look on his face when he saw me, showed that he knew, he sold me the baked goods when I walked in 30 minutes earlier....I had been patiently waiting for close to an hour for 2 breakfast sandwiches...just 2 sandwiches! He quickly started scrambling and said, it will be just a couple of minutes. At the same time he was yelling out if anyone knew how to shut off online ordering. I did finally get our sandwiches. 5 Stars for quality of products and they were nice at the register. They lost stars...because they weren't organized and weren't communicating with each other. They simply were hanging online tickets, seemingly deprioritizing them and focusing on filling in person orders. I was aggravated and disappointed as this is not service I have ever experienced with the Sunrise chain. Oakland is always amazing as is Waterville (arguably one of the busier restaurants). If you choose to come here, I would recommend ordering in person.
