Delish! Our first…read moreday in Camden and I wanted a real breakfast so we came to explore the main harbor and street. Buttermilk Kitchen is one of the main breakfast spots and was highly recommended. We waited about 45 minutes on a 20 minute quote and eventually I went to sit right beside the hostess stand with my toddler bc it was getting long and they seated us quickly after that. Our server was very friendly and happy to make recommendations. We went with the fresh biscuit of the day - which was a delicious peach cornmeal served sliced and warmed. I chose to order the chicken breakfast biscuit sandwich and my husband had the corned beef hash. All was very good and the inside is cute and charming - there is a nice back patio with a few hightop tables overlooking the water.

The fresh pastries are a great treat to add on to your meal. The owners have spruced up the interior to make it an open and comfortable place to eat. They even added a charming couch area with kids toys for the little ones. The employees are friendly and always ready to help. I love their merchandise and am happy to represent this new gem of a diner.

There was truly no greater feeling than walking up to this cute, cozy little bakery and seeing a "Sold Out" sign, knowing that I had maybe 20+ pastry items waiting for me. The taste lived up to the hype. I tried the pistachio croissant, which was unique and had a lovely unexpected chocolate filling. But the apple kouign amann with the caramel filling was simply to die for. I got other pastry items to see how they stacked up against Portland's greatest (e.g. ham & cheese croissant, plain croissant, bagels). These standard items were good, I think where the Place Bakery truly shines is the more unique pastry items that you won't find elsewhere. They are clearly gifted bakers, have a trusted cult following and are a staple in the neighborhood. If you're only open on the weekends and still able to float as a business, you're doing something right. Run, don't walk, to the Place Bakery.

Best service in town, good food, and amazing view…read more We came into town this week for a vacation. For whatever reason this restaurant didn't pop up in my suggested restaurants. We discovered this place because we stayed at the hotel the restaurant is located in. We ended up eating here once for dinner and once for breakfast. We had the halibut at the oyster bar next door and the halibut at the oak room... Oak Room was much better. But the biggest differentiator was the service. Everyone at the Oak Room was so hospitable and seemed to genuinely enjoy the job (quite the opposite of next door). If you get a chance be sure to have a muffin at breakfast. They're delicious.

We got there at opening and they were still putting out some delicious looking breakfast/pastry offerings, so we grabbed a plum danish to go (that was very yummy when we got around to enjoying it)! The drinks were unique, well-crafted, and delicious - we thoroughly enjoyed the viking collagen latte and seasonal strawberry rhubarb latte (we would order both again in a second if we were in town for more than a couple hours while on the road)! Highly recommend this spot for nice view/seating, kind baristas, and high quality offerings!

Have returned twice since then. As the menu is small and hasn't changed since my first visit, the charm has worn off. I usually share the roast half chicken plus 2-3 sides. The meal was absolutely flavorful on my first visit but not so much the last visit in Dec 2025. Maybe it was a bad night? I thought the flavors fell flat and service was not as attentive. I was celebrating the holidays by treating friends to dinner and had to wave down someone twice to order rounds of drinks. I will give any establishment 20 stars if they are paying attention as to whether your glass is half empty. For me, the food can be excellent or blah but excellent service can make or break a restaurant.

(See pics) Hospitality is completely absent. No one made eye contact for a prolonged period of time after we entered. Yes, it is a very small space, but there was one waiter and one bartender. Never received set ups. We rooted around in an exposed cabinet and snagged our own. And they don't carry any sodas whatsoever. So... enjoy the food but pack your patience and perhaps don't look too hard at the walls of the dining room.

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.
