We ordered 5 subs - steak and cheese, firecracker, big pig, Italian, and chicken bacon ranch. They were all decent. They need to figure out a better system for the kitchen. Our order took over 30 minutes to prepare. Someone ordered two subs after us and were told it would be 1 hr and 15 minutes. There is definitely a more efficient way to run the kitchen. Used to be one of our absolute favorite places to go. I hope the new owners can figure it out so they can keep this place going. read more

The #1 best value lobster roll in the State of Maine, conveniently located along Route 1. An easy stop on the way up or down the coast. Not just an easy stop, but a must stop! Get there early and you will probably see lobstermen unloading crates of lobster from the nearby harbor. It's not waterfront, but in the late fall you can see the bay through the trees after the leaves fall! Bonus! We ordered a traditional Maine style mayo lobster roll and a buttered lobster roll for comparison. The traditional Maine style mayo lobster roll was absolutely perfect! Just enough mayo to bind the fresh, plump, tender sweet cold water lobster meat. Oh and no fillers, just lobster meat (mostly tender sweet knuckle/claw meat, mmmmm) and just the right amount of mayo. Same for buttered lobster roll, just the right amount of clarified butter as a binder. No need to overpower the fresh delicate flavor of tender cold water lobster from Maine waters. Both lobster rolls were presented on an over stuffed buttered and grilled hot dog style roll. Plated with fresh, hot ,skin on shoestring fries and some house made slaw. Delicious! Both rolls perfect! Hard to tell which one we liked better. Maybe slight advantage to the traditional mayo style, just cause thats the way we like it. If you cant decide, We recommend you get one of each, split with a friend, and judge for yourself. Either way you wont be dissapointed. The Bayside store is not just a lobster roll place. Its a great old world style small market with something for everyone. You can get just about anything from breakfast, to a burger, to fresh house made soup, to a great selection of local craft beers! As soon as you walk in through the swinging screen door you feel automatically welcome. Seems like the place where there is always fresh hot coffee on and friendly staff to greet you. There are relaxing benches and some hightop counters to relax and enjoy your meal or a cup of coffee. Weather permitting, there is also casual and comefortable outside seating. Oh and the staff was so pleasant and welcoming. Makes you want to come back and be a regular! Highly recommended! 5+++++ We will return! Again and Again! read more

Got a lobster roll and they really hooked me up, thing was full to bursting. Cute little place and the owners were nice and talkative. Great subs too read more

Seems like a poorly run family business. Mom running the register who doesn't have a clue what is going on and a daughter or two in the back kitchen constantly yelling and fighting with their mom in front of customers. I never would've thought a lobster roll would take 45 minutes when I was one of only 2 customers in the entire store on a Tuesday afternoon. When the lobster roll finally arrived it didn't even have any butter on it even though I ordered it that way. But I wasn't about to continue to have more of my vacation time consumed by this business waiting on butter. So I just ate lobster on a bun and won't be back. read more

Great little gem that reminds me of an old fashioned local variety or general store. Local beers, Maine made gifts, ice cream, pizza and sandwiches made to order or ready made. A few picnic tables outside for eating lunch or enjoying your ice cream. Easy in, easy out parking. The young ladies working the register and the deli were very friendly. I admit I haven't quite found my sandwich there yet. But I will keep trying. Lobster roll didn't have any (?) flavor but the McCrum fries and the Cole slaw were amazing. Be sure to upgrade to the basket. Enormous pile of fries, you can share among a small family! I hear the burgers are very good so that will be my next try off the menu. Cute place, friendly people, great selection. Definitely worth the stop. read more

Hand cut fries and a delicious hamburger. So good and not too pricey. Nice lil store too great to find that lil something as a gift.

We LOVE the Bayside Store. The food is so good, affordable, and it's such a cute little village landmark. So many kids ride their bikes to get ice cream and candy, and it's the perfect grab and go lunch spot! read more

This place is a hidden gem. We stayed at a house just up the road and stopped in here a few times for drinks, food, etc. The pizza and fries were amazing - they take a little time, but well worth the wait. read more

Great meatball subs and the best lobster rolls around. Plus they make fantastic milk shakes. I have not tried their pizza yet but I heard that was great. Highly recommend. read more

Nice little convenience store in the area. Stopped for a cheap lobster roll and it did not disappoint! Great value for less than $20 (the basket is more but comes with sides). The staff were friendly and helpful. One stop shop for a quick bite, roadtrip snacks, ice cream or even a book, as they have a cute little library. read more

We stopped in for burgers and pizza. The store was super busy and for good reason! The decor was like an old fashioned store and had comfortable seating while we waited. We ate on the deck, the boys devoured the pizza and I had absolutely the best burger I have ever eaten. One of my son's had the burger as well and stated this would be his go to place for burgers going forward. If the food wasn't good enough, The Bayside Store has the best beer selection! You would be hard pressed to find a place with a better selection! If your looking for a place to eat look no further than The Bayside Store. read more

Great lobster rolls, fries , Cole slaw but also lots of other tasty looking sandwiches in the menu. Locals spot for sure.

Great little neighborhood store! Best subs around and the most affordable lobster rolls in town! Pizzas good too and if you're into craft beers the selection is huge! read more

We were visiting the restaurant and decided to try out the pizza. Best choice we ever made! The crust was excellent, the toppings just right and flavor was delicious. Even though we live an hour and a half away, we've already decided to go back again for the pizza! And the staff working there are very friendly. Cannot say enough good about this little gem. read more

Visited the new store for the first time, our family ordered pizza and they were kind enough to keep the kitchen open late, I know it's hard when people come in right when you're ready to shut down, but they were very gracious! Nice selection of staples and local products! All the staff were wearing masks despite the hot humid weather! Happy they are open! Will be back soon! read more

They claim to have the best subs on the coast, and ours were pretty darn good. If you order one of the special roast beef subs with horseradish, unless I'm wrong, its actually horseradish and not a mayonnaise coverup. The roast beef was fresh and tasty. Nothing special about the sub roll, but that can be forgiven as the subs are full size, overstuffed, and tasty. Friendly staff. Grab some subs and go have a picnic and you can't go wrong. read more

Went in the door today to get a sub and none of the 3 employees were wearing masks. No sign on the door about wearing masks. Gov. Mills has ordered that all grocery stores and restaurants in Maine MUST have a sign requiring masks AND must have employees masked. They make great subs but they are way out of step. I would send them an email but cannot find an email address read more

Just had a great sandwich and onion rings! The pot roast sandwich with onions,peppers and cheese was delicious!

Best place in Maine to eat and socialize all employees are amazing, it is just one big family

We just had a ferocious winter blizzard here in mid-coast Maine, but all I want is a Bayside Store steak bomb. Seriously, folks, this beats Philly's best hands down. The sub roll is toasted to perfection with a ever so slight thin crisp crust and an exquisitely chewy and robust interior. The lush combo of thinly sliced steak, mushrooms, peppers, and onions, tenderly grilled and layered with succulent melted cheese (American, in mine) waters my palate just thinking about it. The friendly owner tends the grill herself and she's a master. Hungry for a sublime cuisine moment? Beat your feet down to the Bayside Store, you'll always thank yourself!! Yummy is just the beginning!‼ read more

So so good. Truly the best subs ever. The bread is amazing. I recommend either Marks Tuna Melt exactly how it's made or a pot roast sub. I'm drooling just thinking about it! read more

I stopped in Friday morning with all intentions of grabbing a slice of their highly recommended breakfast pizza but then I saw this beauty, a breakfast burrito with eggs, cheese, onions, peppers and tomato!! It even came with a side of salsa! I did not regret my decision to forgo the pizza, the burrito was DELICIOUS and gave me the fuel I needed to get through the day and close out the week!! I will totally be back for another in the future! read more

This place replaces my kitchen in the summer... When I was little I would walk the mile from Bayside to the Bayside Store to buy penny candy and slush puppies. Now I'm too lazy to walk, and when I'm too lazy to cook I always turn to the kitchen at this cute little convenience store, which serves the BEST subs in the area, as well as decent pizza, burgers, etc. Good selection of sodas (including Moxie, of course) and the regular Sam Adams, Bud, Miller, etc. They also sell gifford's ice cream, and have a cute little porch/patio where all the kids sit and eat their food before heading back to the park or dock to play some knock-out or push each other into the water. I have to give it 5 stars because of the sentimental value here--but the subs really are good, and reasonably priced. I recommend the BBQ Beef, the hot roast beef, or create your own. Its closed on Sundays. read more

They make the best sub sandwiches! They also serve Gifford's ice cream. Buy lunch here and take it down to the coast!
