    Iced Lavender Matcha
    Delaney A.

    Popped in here while exploring downtown Ellsworth, looking for some Matcha which seems to be a bit difficult to find in the area. Thankfully, we found Flexit because the Matcha was really delicious! My wife and I both ordered an Iced Lavender Matcha and the drinks came out quickly and efficiently. It seemed like a cute place to hang out and do some working/study sessions. Plus the location is perfect. Plenty of parking nearby and lots of other shops to explore post-caffeine. We did not order food during this visit so I cannot comment on the food. However, I will say that it seemed like they had a great selection of food as well as a grab-n-go section with lots of items from the cafe and other local vendors. If we're ever back in Ellsworth, we will 100% be back.

    No-frills café where you order at the counter, grab everything you need, and bus your own table. Affordable, casual, and super dog-friendly, which I loved! The food was yummy and exactly what you'd expect. It was good, not over-the-top amazing, but definitely satisfying. A great spot for a quick breakfast before heading to Acadia or after walking around downtown Ellsworth (which is also really cute to explore!).

    Feta, spinach, tomato quiche
    Ophelia M.

    We were on the hunt for coffee and breakfast in the area when we found Flexit Cafe on Yelp. We arrived around late morning/early afternoon and one thing to note is that they have limited breakfast hours. So, we weren't able to order the breakfast sandwich we were hoping for but were fortunate that they still had some quiche left in their pastry case, so we went for that! Let me begin with the quiche, which was outstanding. It was absolutely packed with flavor and much more than simply an egg dish. I got the feta spinach and tomato quiche, which was packed with feta, spinach, and tomato. It was divine. The service was outstanding. They have the sweetest folks working in there! The coffee wasn't great. I got a dirty chai and didn't end up drinking it. The espresso was just not at all my favorite. I'd definitely go back for the amazing food and service, though!

    Was there on a Saturday morning and was pleasantly surprised to be greeted with live music inside the door. In addition to the menu, there's a grab-and-go selection of baked goods and sandwiches. The space is filled with muted colors, artwork, and information about the local scene. I ordered a peach vanilla London fog off the specials menu and it was delightfully peachy! Was also impressed by the eco-friendly paper cups and paper lids.

    Delicious salmon bagel and Main Street sandwich. But the hash brown bites were only ok. They tasted old and a little greasy. Coffee is yummy. Register girl with long black hair seemed to be having a bad day or just didn't know how to smile. The little grey-haired lady was very sweet. Cute place with purchasable art in the walls! Love the plants! Sustainable place to eat!

    Breakfast burrito with sausage

    Flexit Cafe, is a cute cafe that offers incredible coffee, smoothies, and sandwiches. I stopped in for breakfast and I was so pleased with the service and the food. When you walk in, you grab a menu while you wait in line. While you are waiting you pass their bakery items. They have a wide range of options and they have a bunch of gluten free options as well. You have an option of dining in or take out. If you dine in, they give you a number and will bring your food out to you. I ordered their breakfast burrito with sausage on a gluten free wrap and their Berry Blast smoothie. I also brought a gluten free marshmallow bar. Everything I ordered was absolutely incredible! The burrito was made to perfection. Everything paired nicely together and I could not put it down. It was delicious and I could have eaten two that is how amazing it was. The Berry Blast smoothie added the perfect amount of freshness. All the fruit was blended together nicely and the yogurt was a nice touch because it made it creamy. Last but not least was their gluten free marshmallow bar. I absolutely loved it! It was the perfect ending to a perfect breakfast. The marshmallows tasted homemade and the bar was not too hard. Everything paired nicely together and it was worth every single bite. If you are in Ellsworth Maine, then you have to check out Flexit Cafe. Trust me, you will love every second of every bite that you take.

    We were all pleasantly surprised how good the food and lattes were here! It's a cute cafe with some local art and very community driven. We ordered the breakfast burrito, spinach and feta pastry, and spinach and tomato tulip puff pastry with coffee and pumpkin lattes... yum! Everything was really good. The breakfast burrito had pickled onions in it and it was surprisingly delicious The staff was very friendly. We spoke to the owner, and he was great and helpful. They offer thing like in September - free small coffee and cookie with your local library card... what a ingenious idea! I highly recommend this place to locals and visitors. It's worth the stop and support local / small businesses!!

    Nice little soup sandwich and coffee shop Order authentic counter. Menu on the video board. We wentbonce for lunch. Young people behind the counter were nice, relaxed, and pleasant. Get a number on a stick stand, then find a place to sit at the wooden tables scattered around. Eventually, they find your number and deliver the food to you. Noise leve is pretty high. Haddock chowder was thick, loaded with fish, and very tasty. Sandwichs were on home baked rolls and fairly innovative Over all a pleasant place for lunch.

    Hot chai!

    We came here a few times last year and it was decent enough to fill that Thai craving. However,…read morethis year they have put the price up for lunch to $18.95, and the portion size is terrible for that price. This time I had the lunch which comes with soup, salad, 2 appraisers and the main meal choice. Sounds like a good deal right??! The soup and salad cone in cups so small I don't know where they found them, it was actually comical. The appraiser was a spring roll (which was good) and a shumi. The shumi app was literally one tiny dumpling the size of the tip of my thumb. Ummm.... For the main course I got the butternut squash curry and asked for it at a level 2 when she asked me how hot on a scale of 1-5. It was so hot I could not eat it. Had my partner try it and he could not either. It also came with just 3 shrimp. For $19. My partner had fried rice with chicken and apps of chicken sauté and a spring roll. He said the chicken sauté was ridiculously small and not good. I tried his rice and thought it was good, but that was the only winner in the meal for the $50 for lunch.

Spoiler alert: you're not going to get lobster rolls here. What are you are going to get is authentic tasting Thai food. The curries were out of the world. The Tom Yum soup was delicious. The appetizers were all tasty as well. I'd love to go back.

    This review is really only good for a short period of time, as signage announced that this place…read morewas sunsetting operations by the end of 2025 after a ten-year run. This is a shame, because the place brings a great culinary diversity to an area where others might, as I did, want to pull over on the way to Bar Harbor. Vegan options were plentiful, and I got my coconut-infused curry with chickpeas, receiving a zingy, spicy flavor. Their naan was somewhat unconventionally given as an appetizer with chutneys, but this worked fine for me and it was freshly grilled. The portion size for the price was not huge, and I was actually surprised that they didn't do traditional Sri Lankan dishes like kootu paratha, but I was happy that i pulled over, and the option remains to travelers for a little while longer.

The place has few tables and a tin ceiling, and played some awesome retro forties music. Divine. The mulligatawny stew was fab, had tons of chicken and a good broth. The butter chicken was superb and the naan fresh baked. What a delicious meal. We got dessert there, a Mom's cake, that was full of nuts and had a side of cream that blew us away. So good! The service was spot on and attentive. I cannot wait to go back--as long as it's winter. You can't get a table there in the summer months. That is ok by me--I like having the place to locals in the winter. It feels homey.
