Also, it's near Granite City Park, with its long row of colorful Adirondack chairs. That makes it a great place to drink Traverse Coffee with friends, or to drink coffee by yourself while you read or just gaze at the river flow. In addition, they seem to have a uniquely friendly and knowledgeable group of workers. I ordered a black cold brew. It was made with a Cat & Cloud roasted blend called The Answer. Cat & Cloud is off my radar, but some quick internet research suggests that they are based in Santa Cruz, CA. They have a 4.5 Yelp Star rating. The Answer blends Ethiopian, Colombian and Brazilian. It was balanced and pretty good. I didn't pick up any flavor notes in particular, which may have to with the fact that it was cold brewed rather than hot brewed and then chilled. I prefer more acidity and fruit notes. Four Stars.

Our smoothie took about 5-10 minutes after ordering and enjoyed the taste since we wanted something a little sweet with some fiber. The oatmeal cookie wasn't my favorite since they added an additional citrus flavor and I'm not usually a fan of zesty desserts. Overall, its a cute and decent size cafe where you can easily spend hours working or relaxing. There are about 10 small tables to sit at so there weren't any seats when we were there. Would come again to try some of their many other dessert options.

Time and Tide in Biddeford. Since I was there I had a cup too, because why not. It was decent, but maybe just the slightest bit weak? Or maybe not. Lots of fancier options too but I don't go for those. They have a selection of baked goods. I think they're all from other small local businesses, not made here. I had a lemon blueberry scone with the coffee which was outstanding. Delightfully light in texture, not heavy or greasy, and not overly sweet. Lemony of course and the blueberries were plentiful, tangy, and small. I'd guess they were wild Maine blueberries (frozen of course this being April) but I'm not sure. A maple glaze completed this masterpiece. They didn't forget the chocolate lovers. A very dark enormous brownie called to me but reluctantly I passed. Maybe tomorrow. It annoys me when bakeries don't have any chocolate offerings. From the hand pie selection I chose a Carrot, Leek, and Goat Cheese for later. Also outstanding. The crust was flaky, not dry, subtly buttery, and just the right thickness for the filling which was generous. (It made it all the way to the edges, which many hand pies do not.) Decorated with thyme leaves. The filling was sweet, which I thought was just from the caramelized leeks but I read on the wrapper that sugar is also an ingredient. Just the right amount. The carrots were "rainbow", in several colors, and very pretty. Pretty expensive at $8 but for the size and quality I'm glad I got it. The place is very small but looks like a comfortable place to hang out. A few small tables, walls decorated with painted flowers and vines. The counter people were nice and thanked me for coming in. Customers were mostly engrossed in conversations, not absorbed into their devices. Even though it was just a quick stop for take-out I enjoyed my visit.

Maine really has an incredible local coffee shop scene, and LRC is another welcome addition to it…read more Their motto? "We're about a good cup of coffee, delicious locally-sourced food, and being a welcoming and comfortable space to work, visit, or dream in Lisbon Falls." Their two major partners are Black Ink Coffee out of Bangor and the Italian Bakery out of Lewiston. This might not seem like a big deal, but there are so many places opening up in Greater Portland now that don't use a local coffee roaster and I don't get it. So, thanks LRC! The space has seating in front (it feels like these are the most coveted ones, as they're comfortable chairs with armrests located in front of their floor to ceiling windows overlooking the street) and some more basic two and four top tables in the back. The staff? So friendly! They were super patient when I had loads of questions, they made recommendations (like secret menu kind of stuff!), and they double-check our specific order, I think the coffee itself is good (hot, iced, or cold brew specifically); the specialty latte menu is really fun! It changes seasonally, and they're creative enough options that you'll want to come back to find out what the new line-up is. For me, though, they are too, too, too sweet. The sweetest latte I've ever had, honestly. It tasted like I was drinking melted ice cream. So, if you like a sugar forward, milk forward drink, get it as is. If you like a more coffee forward drink, PRO TIP, ask for half the amount of syrup and double up your espresso shots as well.

I spotted a couple of food trucks close to the parking lot and one of them was Kabayan. I've been hoping to try Kabayan for some time and even follow them on facebook. As a Filipino, it is nice to know there is a food truck in Maine where there's not really much places that offer Filipino food. I almost went with chicken teriyaki skewers but I went with a classic pairing of pancit (Filipino style stir fry noodles) and a variety of lumpia (Filipino style fried spring rolls) with sweet chili sauce instead. It was priced at $15 which was quite reasonable. One of my granddaughters loved the pancit and kept asking for more. My other granddaughter just wanted mango juice which she liked. Ate Emily (the chef owner) was personable and kind. She even had some candy for the kids to choose from. She offers a few varieties of lumpia (pork, shrimp, chicken, mushrooms) of which she gave me a variety of. I enjoyed my food. Really wishing they were closer.
