    The Kennebec Cafe is a little roadside eatery in Anson offering light fare for lunch and dinner including sandwiches, wraps, burgers with fries, toasted naans, flatbread pizzas, salads, soups, kids meals, and desserts. Most main items priced $11-$15. The place offers a cozy dining room and takeout. I stopped by recently for lunch takeout. I ordered the Haddock Sandwich with Fries ($15 plus tax), which was ready to go in under 10 minutes after ordering. The big fish sandwich and fries filled the box. The fish sandwich a breaded deep fried square topped with lots of tartar sauce on a soft thick burger bun. The golden fries were hot and crispy with ketchup on the side. Overall, it was pretty good and I would probably order their spicy chicken burger or their veggie flatbread next time.

    Lunch out on the deck! Excellent chicken wrap and nice choices of buns for the burgers: pretzel or brioche. Best French fries. It will be a nice restaurant to give gift cards to.

    Wow food is so good Great prices…read moreI had the lobster Bisque & the Poutine burger My Husband has the Monte Cristo Maryln our waitress was lovely She made Great recommendations. I had the specialty caramel apple martini it was off the charts.

    Had a very unsettling experience at this restaurant on Sunday night. When we arrived we were…read moreexcited as this has been a staple in Kingfield for many years. Upon our arrival our waitress, Colleen, seemed a little disorganized and took awhile to grab us menus. We looked past that though for the time being, my friend ended up ordering a bud light. When he got his beer he tried it and it was an IPA. Had a darker tint to it as well, when the waitress came back my friend nicely asked what kind of beer it was and she said bud light, but became argumentative about it immediately which was not our intention at all. We simply just wanted to know what it was because it was an IPA. After wanting to argue and tell us it wasn't an IPA, she leaves and comes back and tells us that it was in fact an IPA and gave us a bud light. We thought it was all over after this, it wasn't. She then continues to act rude throughout the whole interaction and was not attentive to our table whatsoever. Then it came time for the bill. She quickly comes over and says yeah I'll get you boxes and then runs off, we wanted to let her know we wanted 3 separate checks. When she comes back we let her know this and she says well I'll try to remember what you guys had, when we offered to write it down for her since we didn't know it was such a hassle. We then decide to pay for it on one check, when my friend nicely goes down to do this she says "Yeah, the way you should have done it in the first place." We finally leave... it should be over at this point right? Well it wasn't, when we are walking back to our car from the gas station, she screams over another group of people at us "THANKS FOR THE 10 PERCENT TIP!" After the extremely rude and uncomfortable service, she's lucky she even got a tip! I don't know if she was having a bad day, but this is not someone I would want in the hospitality business. We left extremely disappointed and will not be back. It's too bad that a staple for so long has turned into a place that leaves a sour taste in your mouth
