I've been coming here for a few years and while the food and drinks haven't been overly impressive, they've been decent. Today officially marks the last time I will go. The chai was bland, like drinking cinnamon flavored water. They ran out of cold brew when filling the cup (it happens, no biggie) and their solution was to fill it with cold coffee. Just offer to make a different drink, that would have been ok. Service is hit or miss like today by saying the name for two of our drinks and not calling out it for the third while we waited and waited. The price for the quality of food and drinks was not justified, overall nothing was good, except the space is cute. Just bummed because there aren't any really great coffee/tea places nearby. read more

This place was ridiculously packed and I could see why the key place to sit is on a small balcony outside in the back with a spectacular view of the bay and the sailboats, but seating was extremely limited when you go in you have to make your way to align to place your order Starbucks style. I ordered Café Olay and a fresh croissant. There is tables inside, but the best view is on the balcony. There's also sofa sit and wait comfortably for your order to be called my order up. I found my way back to the front of the café, and sat outside on the outside tables with views to the road, it was still very pretty because the area is quaint and nicely decorated place and a tasty pastry place gets packed read more

I like family owned business. The coffee blend was outstanding. They have a nice and Cousy tables.

We had a great breakfast at this little cafe. Located in a restored old building in the small Rockland downtown, it has an excellent view of the bay and great vibes overall. We liked the homey feel and small details throughout. We received really great service and prices were reasonable. The items we got were all top quality - vegan pistachio loaf cake, lemon poppyseed loaf cake, beautiful avocado toast with lots of fun toppings, and two really high quality macchiatos. It was a great experience and would be good with friends, for work or with your family. Street parking right outside was a breeze. read more

Went here for breakfast on Thu, Aug 24. Bottom line - I would not recommend this place at all. Two unfriendly young women were at the counter. My wife and I ordered a couple of coffees drinks (Capuccino and Latte), two specialty toasts, and a cinnamon roll. They gave us a dinosaur toy to mark our table for order delivery, but failed to tell us to come up for our coffee when called (Starbucks style) - and we never heard our name called from our table. The cinnamon roll, $5, was very small and hard, resembled a hockey puck, it was horrible - could not finish it. When our toasts came out after 20 minutes plus (with no coffee drinks), we went to the counter and found our cold coffee drinks there waiting for us - probably should have asked for new ones, but at this point just decided to cut our losses. Yes, nice view and great location, just wish we could have enjoyed it more. Contrast: We had an awesome breakfast the next day at Home Kitchen Cafe in Rockland - friendly service, great food - and an incredible, real cinnamon roll. read more

Love this coffee shop! Such a nice place to chat, work or ruminate. Food is also amazing and people who work here are just the sweetest. I'm afraid of what will happen in the summer when the tourists discover it but they do deserve the attention. Added some pics of the menu, but try the pastries too! read more

Perfect stop in Rockland. The place overlooks the bay and the cappuccinos are a work of art not to mention truly delicious. Try any of their pastries. Fresh and yummy. The staff was super friendly. read more

I've attempted to visit more than once and it is always closed. Too bad, it looks like a really nice and inviting place.

The world needs more cute coffee shops and the owners of Seafolk are certainly doing their part! The decor is as charming as their coffee is delicious. I loved the purple punches of color amidst vintage brick and neutral furniture. Overlooking Rockport Harbor, it was a wonderful place to start the day with my family and we definitely plan to be back during this trip to Maine. read more

really friendly staff. great prices and cute overlook of the harbor. had oat milk and almond milk for non dairy options and yummy avocado toast. and they give you cute animals as a "number" for your order read more

I gave this lovely establishment 5 stars because it has great interior design, the owners are super kind and welcoming, and the food is delicious. I really hope this place stays in Rockport for the long haul and does well. Please shorten your wait times! I ate with you twice this past week, as did my parents, and in all three cases it took 15 minutes to order with only three sets of people in front of us and another 35 minutes to get our breakfast sandwiches. "Sea" you next summer : ) read more

Beautiful views of the Rockport Harbor. Quaint, cheerful, clean atmosphere. Really kind baristas. Price of food and drinks are comparable to other coffee shops in the area. There are drinks, baked goods, and a small food menu. read more

Absolutely charming coffee shop overlooking the harbor-the view is spectacular! The egg sandwich on a homemade biscuit was so delicious-I keep thinking about it. Wish this place was in DC where I live! read more

Best matcha latte on the mid coast! Beautiful spot with fantastic baked goods, amazing open face toasts and very friendly staff. Look for the blue doors to find this hidden gem. read more

We arrived a few minutes before lunch was being served and ordered drinks with a plan to wait until food was available. Location and ambiance is wonderful. The counter was staffed by three teenaged boys who seemed overwhelmed, including one who stood with a drink in his hand watching the others trying to fill orders. Ordered an unsweetened iced tea that was awful-- completely overbrewed and bitter. I always order tea and don't put sweetener in my drinks, but in those case I tried to add sugar to salvage the drink. Nothing could save it. Came in hoping for a great experience after reading reviews, but it fell short. Didn't stay for lunch. read more

Love it; great location off the main road over looking the bay; great coffe, baked goods, and cozy , relaxing ambiance. Couldn't be happier! Great mix of locals and visitors! Watched fishermen take off in their boats as I drink my coffee overlooking the bay. Life is good:) read more

What a gem of a spot! I had read that the matcha lattes were fantastic and I'm always in search of these. It did not disappoint and it was beautiful!! I got it with almond milk. The setting is really lovely. Great views to the water out the back. They had lovely classical guitar today, which is Sunday. They didn't have gluten free bread when I was there so no toast for me but my husband tried it and said it was very good. They usually do have gf bread though. read more

This place is a hidden (not so much anymore) gem. Busy but not typically over crowded, the atmosphere is simple, bright, and cheery with water views of the harbor below. The coffee is brewed well, hot or cold, with a unique and delicious menu that varies between morning and afternoon. This place is a must on a visit to Rockport. read more

How do I love thee, SeaFolk?, let me count the ways.... Jacob and Madrona who own and run this small treasure are as nice as anyone you will ever meet; ditto their crew and their four sons, some of whom help behind the counter sometimes. MJ, culinary magician, is head cook, but the term fails to do her justice. I'm not a coffee drinker but everyone in these parts raves about their different brews which is a consistent theme when one is talking or hearing about SeaFolk. Ok, then there's the food itself- consistently superb pastries AND the best breakfast sandwich I have ever had in my life. Before I write more, I should mention that I have no reason to write a glowing review like this (the first time I've ever been on Yelp) other than the fact that this place is extraordinary. Anyway, then there are the jewels in their crown, their sandwiches.....just amazing. Truly. Words fail. I have a small gallery directly across the street and I am tempted to offer to buy your meal for you if it doesn't live up to every word of this review. (but my gallery crew says no to this idea!) So, there is one less than sublime thing to point out. They are building a larger kitchen as I write this, in order to expedite orders more swiftly. Right now orders can take 15 minutes or so if they are busy, which they often are. Having said that, "busy" in Rockport equates to charming. They overlook the harbor that Charles Kuralt called "the most perfect small harbor in America," and the vibe is, well, the epitome of what's so completely unique about our town. I know this all sounds overly gushy, but it's all true. So help me. Check it out. read more

such a perfect little coffee shoppe! but... i should warn you that it is busy, and there's not a lot of sitting room ... and they don't know your order and if they do they make it a small cup.. i ordered a iced Carmel mochiato and they gave me the tiniest up ever! they never asked for a size.. so next time i go.. i shall say a large. read more

A gem of a cafe in scenic, quiet Rockport, ME. Modern Maine contemporary decor, well executed, with broad, sunlit view of the beautiful harbor. German-influenced pastries, especially the incomparable strudel, when they have it, which seems straight from a genuine German kitchen, and excellent light toast sandwiches. Worth a detour. read more

Love this place! Great breakfast sandwiches and coffee, beautiful seating areas, very friendly staff.

Best breakfast sandwich evah! Brand new spot in Rockport Harbor. Gorgeous view, friendly staff, delicious baked goods.

Nice location. Nice people. Interesting menu. Unfortunately the service is ridiculously slow.
