apple pie
Jamilee G.

Everything happens for a reason. After a mishap with another local bakery, it led me to Two Fat Cats Bakery and I'm so glad it did. Their customer service is beyond amazing. My partner was able to pick up a birthday pie right before closing, they were so sweet to let him in minutes before. We later realized it was a blueberry pie instead of the apple pie. I called first thing the next morning, and Jamie was so kind and helpful! She immediately set aside an apple pie for us to pick up. The pie was absolutely delicious and the service turned what could've been a frustrating experience into such a positive one. Highly recommend Two Fat Cats Bakery for all your pie needs! They truly care about their customers.

Quite a selection, even a little later in the day

Two Fat Cats is a Portland mainstay and for good reason! They have a huge selection of really excellent baked goods; ranging from pies, to cakes, to quiches, to smaller baked treats. I think the only thing they lack is decaf coffee. We made a stop while downtown the other day and are so happy we did. Their space is bright and roomy with lots of seating and tables, with a chance to watch the bakers do their magic! The staff was really helpful with suggestions while we made selections. We enjoyed our treats very much, less the scone which seemed a little underdone. We will definitely be back, likely for a birthday cake!

Two Fat Cats was on my list of places to hit up during my first proper trip to Portland back in 2021. For one reason or another, I didn't make it back then - but made it a priority to visit during my recent trip to the city. I had heard nothing but good things, so we made plans to pick up some breakfast and pastries to go the morning we were heading back to NY. The bakery itself was larger than I expected - is almost wholesale-like with all of their kitchen operations visible from the front counter and high ceilings. It was a happy surprise to see parking along the side of the building, and they also had some seating towards the far end of the main pedestrian area. Pies are the main star of TFC's menu, which are all on display adjacent to where you order. We put those pies on the back burner and decided to order some breakfast carbs first - I got an egg and cheese biscuit sandwich and we split a blueberry scone, cinnamon roll, and cherry hand pie. The sandwich was pretty good - it had good flavor but I think the combination of being wrapped in foil and then placed in a warmer made the bread stick too much to the fillings and be a little too soft overall. The blueberry scone and cherry hand pie were good, and the cinnamon roll was excellent. We decided to pick up a pie for the road - we got the blueberry crumb because Maine and because we love blueberries. The pie was really good and super unique - the "crumb" was almost oatmeal or granola like in texture, and that continued into the crust. It made for a good texture contrast with the pie filling. It was unlike any other blueberry pie I've had and totally memorable. Service was good, and overall I'm a fan of Two Fat Cats. I wouldn't call it my favorite bakery in Portland, but they do serve up some of the best pie I've had in a while. It's definitely worth a stop if you're in the area.

My husband and I are new to Portland and absolutely love Two Fat Cats! They make the best breakfast sandwiches in town, I highly recommend that you try them. We look forward to exploring more of their pastries! Inside is a really cool vibe, it would be a great workspace and they also have board games. Honestly our only complaint is that they aren't open early on Sundays!

The food was pretty good however it was nothing out of this world. The blueberry pocket was good and so was the pumpkin Whoopie pie. It was not something that I would be thinking about for days after and hoping to come back one day. It was decent if you're looking to try some new flavors. I wish they sold the blueberry pie as individual slices rather than the blueberry pocket however, I think they must've ran out when I went. This place is a cute little shop right where I live and it was super nice to go to. The service was super Duper good they were very knowledgeable about all their items.

I'm giving this 5 stars JUST for the whoopie pies and I don't even like whoopie pies, but shen in Maine. I went to the bigger location on the outskirts of Portland so it wasn't as busy so it was quick service amd plenty of parking. And that whoopie pie was AMAZING.

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie
Haylee M.

Really love the variety of options here. Especially in the pies. They've got whole and minis. Strawberry Rhubarb Pie was DELICIOUS! I was actually not expecting this. The Only reason we even got this was because my brother wanted to try something with rhubarb. It was the Perfect balance of sweet and tart and just so good, we went to get more! Blueberry Pie was okay. I was expecting something really nice after reading their reviews online, but it was just so so. Very creative whoopie pie: Lemon Zucchini Cake with Blueberry filling. This was unexpectedly good. The filling kept coming out on the sides because it didn't stick on to the cake but still so good! Key Lime Pie was delicious too! Smooth pie and a nice crust. Good balance of sweet and tart.

Maine Blueberry Pie via Goldbelly
Simon W.

I'd be the third fat cat if I lived closer! TFC's claim to fame is the pies and they definitely do not disappoint. These pies are just the best! I've had these shipped to me via Goldbelly and had them when I visited Maine, and they are great each and every time. They have a few favorites but I just can't look away from my goto Blueberry, which is not overly sweet, with a great crust. The rest of the bakery is just as great. I'd enter the great whoopie pie debate with these as my entries but that's a whole other fight in the great State of Maine. The scones are delicious as well. In fact everything I tried from TFC was delicious on a recent visit. Go visit this Maine institution, it's definitely one of the best no matter where you're coming from.

Raspberry rhubarb pie
Randy B.

Delicious pastries. We picked up whoopie pies and a raspberry rhubarb pie today. They have moved from their original location since we were last in Portland, gone too long. If you're looking for wonderful pies, cakes and sweets, look no further.

On a day trip to Portland Maine, I had to try a Wild Maine Blueberry pie. Yelp led me to Two Cats Bakery a charming bakery in downtown Portland. I had a mini blueberry pie and it was delicious with incredible blueberry flavor and a flaky buttery crust. There were pies for sale as well as merchandise and housemade products. Delicious and highly recommended bakery for pies.

Vegan blueberry pie at home.
Steff D.

Believe the hype. This *is* one of the best blueberry pies in the state of Maine. "Made from scratch, baked fresh daily, and filled with wild Maine blueberries. The way pie should be." (from their website; it's just too good not to quote directly!). You can visit the bakery (in Portland or South Portland)! You can do a local preorder online (with 48 hours advance)! You can even place an order for nationwide shipping! They even offer a vegan version of their Blue Pie ("the ideal Maine pie: famous wild Maine blueberries tossed with a sprinkle of sugar and warm spices"). It's packed full of vibrant blueberries and the crust melts in your mouth. Pick-up a pint of vanilla ice cream, and you have the best, most summery dessert there is! Also, the pie holds up really well in the freezer! I do wish they'd offer more vegan options (maybe a cinnamon roll, or scone, or a couple other year round and seasonal pie flavors), and who knows? Maybe the will. For now, this is my go-to for Maine's state dessert.

Great pie. Fantastic crust. But $27 dollars for a very small pie lacking filling? Coffee mediocre. Pass.

The wait is long...but it's so worth it…read more Coffee- pricey, eh. Theres better coffee Loaded savory biscuit- oh my...one of the best things I've ever had. Incredibly flavorful. My boyfriend hates goat cheese but he loved this. The combo with the tomato jam is incredible. The biscuit was also one of the best I've ever had! Banana cake- flavor combos you wouldn't expect to go together...but are phenomenal. The sesame seeds, olive oil, cream cheese and banana bread are so good together. Might even change how I make my banana bread! Sticky bun- HUGE and delicious. We saved it for the next day and it was still so soft and yummy. Plenty of seating outside which is perfect after the long wait. Staff was super nice and helpful, made sure everything was packed up nicely in to go boxes. I'd come back again, but now that I know what we want I might just order online. It's a very long wait to get inside

It's literally everything you'd ever want in a biscuit and to make matters worse, they do a sweet and savory option that really puts me over the edge. This weekend: tomato jam and goat cheese. These biscuits have to be on it a top 25 list of best things I've ever put in my mouth. It's really an incredible experience, even if you wait in that heinously long line. But, you don't have to wait in line. Wake up by 745 and place your order online you can order any of the baked goods or breakfast sandwiches, along with drip and cold brew coffee. They will keep your biscuit sandwiches hot, store your pastries for you, and they don't pour your coffee until you arrive for pick up. So you can order at 7:45 in the morning and pick up at 1 PM if you really wanted. It's as good as they say, and you must make a point of visiting when you're in Portland!

There is a silver lining though, they will still be operating their Forest Ave pickup location and you'll still find their pastries at many other local establishments. To ensure we did not miss out on anything we arrived right at opening. A line already formed but once we located parking we jumped in. Despite the small space the three workers had such a great system going for keeping the line moving! Despite the line of everyone getting their Belleville fix they had everything in stock and about 9 different pastry options. Since it was our first visit we wanted to get a variety of pastries to try a few. Seeing so much positive talk about their croissants we needed a classic version of that, a Pain au Chocolat, Morning Bun, and lastly a Palmier (they describe it as a caramelized puff pastry cookie). Drink wise my wife got an iced lavender latte and I got an iced chai latte. Drinks were good and all the pastries were phenomenal. My wife has found a new favorite pastry with the palmier. Sad to have this great bakery shutting its doors but I will be seeking out their baked goods at the other location!

The cardamom bun was delicious - it was light, slightly sweet, the cardamom flavor was not overpowering and the brioche was perfectly moist. If you enjoy that flavor profile, don't hesitate to grab one of these! Coffee was also great - simply a drip coffee but they are using a medium-dark roast from tandem coffee roasters that will be a general crowd pleaser. Just be aware they don't have all of the pastry options every day, I went looking for a kouign amann but the cardamom bun I had didn't disappoint, so next time I'm here I'll have to catch 'em.

My favorite was the crispy red bliss potatoes in which everything was cooked perfectly in flavor (for cilantro lovers!) and texture. The petite pastrami biscuits are delicious but very rich: best for sharing! Lastly, the orange creamsicle soda was well crafted and not too sweet.
