One of my area favorites! Comfortable for a quiet lunch reading or working, great for client lunches or meeting friends. Guthrie's bases it food on locally sourced ingredients, freshly cooked in a comfortable and friendly atmosphere. Sweet potato quesadilla and burritos are my comfort food! I have heard raves on the chicken salad and pulled pork from dining companions as well. Salads are large and filling as well. So far I haven't found anything not to like! Some days the lunch hour can get busy, if you are in a hurry it is best to call ahead! read more

I gather it's a Bates hangout at times, but it was mostly business people when we visited for lunch. It's a nice open room with a touch of kitsch, but not too much. You order at the counter and the bring your food to the table. I had a burrito, it was made with quality ingredients but it had a sweet component that I did not like. really it was a wrap with burrito like ingredients. Number 3 son had a kids grilled cheese, no complaints. * meter parking it could be hard to come by. * friendly staff service was goos. * could be a nice after work place as well. read more

Great music is always playing. Friendly staff, there's usually a band playing two nights a week! Food tastes awesome, there's something on the menu for anyone. read more

I love this place! Lots of options for everyone! Yummy yummy food with a very local, granola vibe. It's a nice alternative to the bigger fancy places, and a great option in the L/A area for lunch. read more

I have had pretty good experiences with a few of the items on the menu (repeater is good), but I have never felt more grossed out and ripped off by a to-go meal as I was recently when I ordered the "Fiesta Bowl"with BBQ chicken. For $10 (actually a bit more including tip), I got a pallid, dry lump of shredded "BBQ" chicken that was cold to the touch, smelled like it had been sitting around for ages, and did not taste barbeque-y at all. The smell from the package was comparable to fish. I was taken aback. There was also a small pile of unremarkable black beans which didn't have much (if any) flavor, a small pile of rice, a handful of uncooked baby spinach, and a small handful of coarsely chopped, poorly prepped (inconsistently sized) red and yellow peppers. I asked to substitute potato chips for the tortilla chips advertised on the menu, and was given a miniscule booby prize of an Utz's bag. I am not at all a picky eater, and I had to throw away what was left after the first few bites. I had ordered later into the evening, and the joint had closed by the time that I got out of the gym, but I was so appalled by this item that I took it home to put it in the refrigerator in order to take back to the restaurant the next day. Sadly, someone in my household threw it out. It really was that bad. It's a total shame because I've had relatively good experiences here, but as a restaurant that prides itself on being a bastion of good eating in a location that is sorely lacking, this seemed totally inexcusable to me. I ordered this dish ages ago, and I'm still grossed out enough that I have not been back having had many opportunities to do so. read more

It is times like this that I am wishing Yelp offered a negative star. Call me old fashioned, but I am really put off by crappy service or is the case in so many new restaurants, no service. Who ever decided it was a good idea to eliminate waiters and have the diners stand in line to order at a counter should be taken out and shot. OK, maybe this behaviour is acceptable to stand in line for a burger and fries, but a place like this I would hope to offer more. Setting my bias aside, there was a pervasive lack of care throughout the whole enterprise which extended from the dismal over priced food to the counter help who seemed to be afraid of expending any extra calories in the exercise of their duties. I had some form of sandwich which was billed as a grilled Panini with chicken, roasted pepper, tomato, swiss and secret chipotle sauce. After having stood in line to order, my sandwich arrived and was placed in front of me. The presentation looked like something from an inner city school lunch program struggling to maintain their budget. The sandwich was plopped on the plate with low budget potato chips (not home made, or interesting in any way) and a pickle. The pickle was actually the best part of the meal. The sandwich was first and foremost , undercooked. The all important grill marks on the bread were near invisible. Inside, there was as the listed items, but the roasted pepper was barely sauteed, served with the skin on, and the pleasing crisp crunch of a fresh pepper when you bit into it - not roasted at all, not even close, sorry, terrible. The "chicken" was a Buddig like product, of which, 3 paper thin slices had somehow been squeezed in under the cheese. Maybe I could forgive all of the above and write it off to the dismal palate that afflicts so much of the great white north, but the secret chipotle sauce was a disaster. I have no idea what they thought they were creating but as near as I can tell it was ketchup mixed with way too much chipotle. The flavor was reminiscent of ketchup but more alarming, was so hot as to make the whole sandwich nearly inedible. I am not a pussy about hot foods either. I lived in California for twenty years and cut my teeth on some very hot Thai and Mexican, this was beyond those without any of the culinary flair. I really want to send a copy of this to Arlo and suggest he file suit against them for slander, producing anything this bad and using his name to market it all. Anyway, this one will not get a second visit. , read more

Ate here for lunch. The food was pretty bland all around. Everyone in my group made the same comment. I'll check out somewhere else before I return. Friendly staff, clean, casual atmosphere. read more

Local spot with really great people. The food is very good and fresh. But... menu items could use some more kick / spice. Bring your own (hot) sauces. read more

Extremely underrated place. Fresh, healthy and tasty food with a service just as good. Very friendly staff. Would rate 6/5.

Nice selection of healthy sandwiches buritos and salads made to order. Staff is friendly. Music Friday nights. Great part of a very slowly emerging counter culture in L-A. I've been trying to get to this place for several years, but have been disappointed that it wasn't open on weekends. Finally made it on a weekday read more

This is a decent salad place in downtown Lewiston. The menu is vegetarian and vegan-friendly and there is decent variety. The service is a bit slow, especially when they get a bit busy (my smoothie didn't come until I had already finished my dinner). Popular with local college students. read more

I found Guthrie's several years ago and have made it my mission to introduce as many people as humanly possible to this wonderful place! I work near by and often catch a quiet lunch hour people watching and enjoying a veggie or sweet potato quesidilla. It is my go to place for client lunch as well- we can talk over paperwork and questions without interruption and enjoy thier amazing selection of food, including many healthier options! It is hard to find good, local food in Lewiston, and it doesn't get any better than this! read more

Trendy, fun atmosphere, the pork burrito was excellent, service was quick and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this establishment to anyone. read more

Ate here while on business in the area, had good review so I thought I'd give it a shot. Turns out it is an amateur run restaurant catering to hipsters. The food was sub-par with the burritos and salsa having no noticeable taste or characteristics. I asked about their beer selection, and the waitress said she doesn't drink it and knows nothing about the beers they carry. I understand if someone doesn't eat/drink certain items, but if you're selling a product you should at least know something about it! read more

Love the Kool Thing with tofurkey. Love it. Food is made to order, and caters to a variety of diets (vegan, vegetarian, etc). Nice mix of older and younger population and they often have live music--though it's too loud for conversation, mostly. Now the prices aren't bad, but I will add that paying $8-13 for a sandwich with a pickle and bag of chips feels a bit excessive, depending on my mood. The salsa is just OK, and the coffees unique. Smoothies are on the expensive side, as well. The interior consists of tables and picnic-style tables with decoupage and local artwork. All-in-all, it's a unique experience. Would I rave about it? No. Would I recommend it to visitors? Absolutely. read more

A perfectly run food/entertainment haven. The menu is chock full of options, for every palate and many diet restrictions. Food is fresh, wholesome and priced so that its a great value. They have a good selection of non alcoholic drinks as well as a well rounded beer and wine selection. Beyond the food you will find great atmosphere, that is safe, clean and vibrant. Heather and Randy are local people and they are constantly adding to the culture here in Lewiston by featuring local artists on their walls and no charge music concerts on the weekend of a wide variety. Everything about this place nurtures your soul. To add to all the goodness, their business values the environment, buying locally when possible and they have free wifi. read more

Awesome food and environment. They have so many options on their menu, I absolutely love it. Smoothies, salads, Panini's and burritos! They also have lots of vegetarian and vegan options, which is important for me since I am vegetarian. The smoothie I got had way too much honey in it, which was a bit of a turn off. Maybe I'm a smoothie snob, but I prefer to have the natural sugars from the fruit do all the talking. Next time I order I will be sure to ask for light honey. I love Guthries and I will be back. read more

Their menu ranges from burritos to quesadillas to paninis. I have been there twice and cannot believe no one has yelped it yet. My fav is the sweet potato burrito. They are very veg friendly, they have bands play and Thursdays is $.50 PBR night as long as you bring a can koozie - nuthin' wrong with that! The food is always very fresh and flavorful and it feels healthy - nothing's too heavy or greasy. My friend had the BBQ chicken quesadilla and she liked that as well. They also have a good selection of wines and microbrews. I love the casual, no fuss feel! A keeper! read more

Great lunch spot. The food is good and well priced, especially for the quantity. I've always ended up taking half my quesadilla home. It's never been crowded while I've been there, but we went for late lunches. It takes a bit of time for the food to come out so not the best place if you're in a hurry, but definitely a place to go if you want a quality lunch and perhaps a pint of local beer to go with it. read more

Tastes like actual food not processed pseudo stuff buried in flavoring disguised as such. Had the chicken cranberry walnut panini on multi grain also stomp veg panini w/ potato broccoli soup. Very good. Actually a warmed sandwich more than panini press. Delish. Soup spiced with veggie broth no cream, satisfying. Plus the place is Clean! Bathrooms spotless, always s good sign the staff care about the place. Highly recommend. Friendly helpful staff. Glad we found you. read more

Okay, maybe we came on an off night last time. Tried again this summer on another Friday. There was a band.advertised and they performed as scheduled. Food was still just okay but there was a marked improvement in service which always seems to improve the value of any meal. The only thing I did not appreciate was that during our meal we were directly solicited to make a donation for the band by a young man going table to table with a jar. Something about having to reach into my pocket while I'm eating just seemed wrong. I would have gladly dropped a few dollars in the jar after eating had they just made an announcement. Anyway, the band, Backwoods Road, was great and will probably warrant a return visit. read more

Just had the sweet potato burrito -gosh, it does not get any fresher than this. I eat all over the lower 48 traveling on business; this place is an awesome alternative to the standard fare. Hard to believe such a place in this part of the world exists at all. Give them a try; you won't be disappointed! read more

Traveling for work and pouring rain means food delivery at hotel. Guthries was an excellent choice. I am a vegetarian and mostly GF, options are limited, especially on the road. The vegan burrito was amazing. It was customizable, with smoked tofu, veggies and a gluten free wrap available! While I didn't see the restaurant itself, take out was so good and would highly recommend the food. read more

Crazy awesome cool good vibe atmosphere. The staff cranks in the back and clearly like each other, the music was chill and the instruments and albums on the wall seemed real and played rather than just decorations, a mandolin and saxophone, In Rainbows and Woodie Guthrie. The woman helping me smiled and made me feel welcome. I had the taco salad and though there is was a state of avocado crisis in place got a delicious avocado. The veggies were amazing fresh, like some one in town grew them and picked them yesterday fresh. This was my first time in Lewiston (or "One LA" as a vote is about to take place on unification with Auburn) and She Doesn't Like Guthrie is the kind of reason people move to a new town. Cheers. read more

Guthries has everything you could ask for from a small neighborhood/college-abutting cafe. I listened to terrific live jazz on a thursday night while enjoying a vegetarian fiesta bowl of black beans, brown rice, salsa, and lettuce. Their burritos are amazing and soup specials comforting; sandwiches and salads look promising. A great selection of teas, coffees, and alcoholic drinks round out the restaurant. I'd recommend checking out their website for upcoming events. Hungry or not, art and music with a good sip - perfection. read more

Delicious food, fun atmosphere, free wifi. I highly recommend The Bella sandwich. The portions aren't the largest for what you pay, but the food is absolutely delicious and healthy. My only complaint is that they are closed on weekends :-( read more

Fresh food. Nice people. I'd come back again! Try the Grieves burrito or the pineapple chili... Really good!!!!

Excellent food. Coming from a pregnant woman and from NYC, this is a great place to get healthy food. The Kale and Black Bean salad was an A+. Staff was very friendly especially Sam. Thumbs up!!! read more

Figured I would give this place a try since I was in the area. I got take out so not sure how dining in is. The vibe seemed fun and upbeat when I went in to pick up my order though!! I tried the vegan burrito. I saw they had a couple vegan options but this sounded the best. It was HUGE! Lots of food for the price. Came with a side of chips and salsa (which was delicious). As for the burrito itself, little bland. I would of maybe skipped on the spinach and done some fresh cold iceberg lettuce and maybe added some vegan sour cream. Other then that I was STUFFED after just the wrap and chips. Will be back go try the other options! read more

Looking for a healthy choice for eating while out of town and yelped this place. Awesome place, there was music when we went so that was cool. I ordered the veggie burrito and my partner ordered a veggie bowl. Both were really good and we'll be back to try some other things too! They have beer and less healthy things too so everyone would be good with coming here. It is a cafe style place where you order at the counter and they bring it to you. read more

Awesome--quality food, great service-- local family owned-- I'll be back whenever in town!

I like the idea of Guthries, but the reality is disappointing. Everything I've tried on the menu is bland and boring. The salsa is like tomato sauce. They are going for a hipster chic atmosphere, but it too falls flat. It isn't a bad place for a small- venue performance, the beverage options are decent. read more

Lunch today, delish! Superfood Salad with half quesadilla... Salsa was just spicy enough. Sweet potato was cooked perfectly. Great atmosphere. Wish these places where more prevalent in my hometown! read more

This place rocks. If you are a first timer go for the BBQ chicken burrito or quesadilla.

I love the food and the live music here!! The sweet potato quesadilla is my favorite to pair with a local beer. Only 4 stars because I wish it was open on the weekends!! read more

The quesadillas were so good and really filling! So glad we stopped here on our way through Lewiston. I was happy to find out there are a couple of tables out front so we could sit and eat with the dog we were traveling with. Great place! read more

I love the people that work there, but its a bit pricey for what the food was for me. They do have Gluten Free.

We travel all over the US for our business and happened to be in Lewiston,ME today. We yelped veggie food options and found this cool, jazzy eatery and music club. In short, we just enjoyed one of the best veggie burritos we've ever had. Great work, Guthries! read more

On a visit to my friends who live in Auburn, we were lucky enough to have dinner and drinks at this place. Excellent wines for $7 a glass?!! Super fresh food, veggie-goodness, great chai lattes, amazing dessert. Live music. Guthries: Don't change what you're doing because I love every moment I spent at your place. read more

Their curry smoothie is amazing and there is always good beer and music here. They have some vegan/vegetarian options which is cool, but the tacos I had were not especially awesome, just ok. Still it's one of the best hangouts in Lewiston/Auburn. The owners are cool people with good taste in tunes. read more
