Stopped in to get some snacks to eat while hiking: in keeping with local produce, got a blueberry bran muffin and a maple bun whose name I forget. The ingredients were great quality: you could taste the freshness of the blueberries and the purity of the maple syrup. The question, for me, is whether the baking elevates these ingredients beyond if I'd just had blueberries and maple syrup. About that, I'm not sure.

On a recent cruise we had a port stop in Rockland, ME. Instead of doing an excursion we decided to…read moredo one of those "go down this street and right" excursions where you make everything up as you. Since it was between breakfast and lunch we decided to stop into Atlantic Baking for a coffee and a pastry. Atlantic Baking is an unassuming shop right along what I'm going to consider a main street through Rockland. Not necessarily THE main street, but the Main-est we saw, so I'm sticking with that. Inside are several cases of pastries, breads, rolls, donuts and other baked goods that looked at me as if to say "I dare you". There was a cinnamon roll-ish thing that looked really good, and a Vanilla latte are what talked to me most. The staff (two young ladies on this morning) were busy hustling and, even with that, were helpful as they tried to keep taking care of customers. The vanilla latte was SUE-PERB, albeit a bit hot for my taste (had it let is cool first). As we sat having our halfway-between-breakfast-and-lunch-but-not-really-brunch snack there was a steady stream of customers, I'm guessing about 50/50 regulars and cruisers. Aside from pastries, coffees and teas, there's a cooler with canned/bottle beverages for the on-the-go beverage drinker. With as much activity as was going on during our visit you'd think it'd be difficult to keep clean, but there was a gentleman who came out frequently to take care of emptied tables, trash, etc. There are windows into the baking area, proving that they've got nothing to hide. Most everything is made on site with fresh, natural ingredients by people who take pride in what they do. Atlantic Baking is a charming place and a nice stop for a mid-morning snack

We ordered the blueberry pie and it was the best we've had in several years of coming to Maine! It was heavenly! We also ordered a Nieman's cookie which was good. We ordered two cupcakes - very vanilla and a raspberry (vanilla cake with rasp frosting) - the flavors were good but the cupcakes were so dry they were not good at all! Don't order - they aren't worth the calories. The pie;however, was worth 10x the calories and price - do it!! If we hadn't ordered the cupcakes to draw down the rating, I'd rate a 10 out of 5 for the pie!

I will say we only grabbed coffee so cannot speak to the food. I would return to try it though. They appeared to have all the drinks you'd expect a coffee shop/cafe to have. The worker was friendly and greeted us right away. I asked if they had any seasonal drinks as I didn't see any specials/seasonal menu and he mentioned a pumpkin drink. Both my wife and I figured we would have that iced. It ended up being a fantastic drink, well made with tons of flavor. Seems like a popular spot and check out the bookstore out back (its hours are not as long as the cafe mind you though).

I think there was difficulty staffing that (a common problem in Maine) so they have scaled down. The sandwiches are phenomenal. Only served until 2:30 each day. The hot peppers, balsamic vinegar and oil make these sandwiches. Make sure you just get everything on your sandwich. The service is still quite slow, which is probably due to staffing but it's an issue. There are many gluten free options but it is not a gluten free bakery. No outside food is allowed (don't bring in your Wasses!) Be a real Mainer and chomp those down in your car.

We arrived early and found a spot in the very small lot they have next to the building. There were plenty of street spots open within walking distance as well.

LOL There is usually a wait, so just be prepared for it. I was able to put our name on the list and we walked around the area. Our server was great - wow was she energetic.
