    The River's Edge Drive is one route 1 in Machias. You can order everything from fried clams to ice cream. My clams were pleasantly crispy and I thought the fries were cooked just right. The soft serve ice cream tasted institutional and the lemonade was just ok. They do have some picnic tables but only a limited number and without umbrellas. The order takers were rather curt and I was not sure if that was in a New England way or that they just did not want to be there. The entire experience was just average. Oh and the prices will surprise you and not in a good way.

    Our very favorite place for our weekly ice cream treats. Fried seafood and onion rings are a bonus!

    What to do on a hot day on route 1?! Polar Treat all the way! This is an easy stop to make, plenty…read moreof parking and seating available. Large variety on the menu from food to ice cream. I just wanted a sweet treat today and cannot turn down the chance for some real Maine maple so the maple twist it was! It the spot! Quick friendly service in a cozy atmosphere!

    We are in Robbinston ME and went looking for ice cream. Polar Treat sells Hood, Giffords, and…read moreShaker Pond brand hard ice cream. The majority of their hard flavors are Giffords. The servings are massive! A hard serve kiddie, described on their menu as 1 scoop, is definitely at least two scoops, each serving size is larger than the last with pricing increasing accordingly. A kiddie is $3.50 and so on. The staff are friendly, fast, and efficient. The place is strictly take out for both good and ice cream however they do have a food hall with screened in windows you can sit inside to eat your order. Everything is clean, and nicely decorated! We ordered four ice creams in cups and a shake. The smalls were at least three scoops. Giffords Ice cream is ok. Hood ice cream is meh. None of us ordered Shaker Pond flavors. They are cash only and there is an ATM on site. The business has been serving up treats for 70 years! They serve food as well; we only ordered ice cream. They are right on historic route one, which you can follow along the coast of Maine for a gorgeous drive!
