I stopped in to buy a blueberry pie before flying home. I also bought a t-shirt and chicken salad sandwich. When my name was called to pick up the sandwich at the counter, there were two unlabeled sandwiches. I asked which one was the chicken salad sandwich. I did not want to accidentally take someone else's sandwich. I was directed to take the sandwich that I took and was assured that it was the one I ordered. When I got to my hotel, it was not a chicken salad sandwich. It was a lunchmeat and bacon sandwich. Not everyone can eat all sandwiches interchangeably, so getting orders correct really does matter. I got to pay $14 for a sandwich I could not eat.
Tastiest biscuit sandwich I've ever had. The blueberry scone was also so delicious! The indoor area is so cute and has lots of great seating
Very cute bakery - to be honest I came because I thought the name was adorable. Two fat cats, how can you resist? lol I've heard about this bakery because they were known for their pies, cakes, and other pastries. We stopped at this location to bring home two blueberry pies from our trip to Portland. We also got 2 drinks to go - please do NOT get the iced matcha latte from here! I don't know what I was thinking, but obviously this wouldn't be the place to get matcha. It was clumpy and they used culinary-grade so it just tasted bitter and odd. BUT ANYWAYS, the blueberry pies were DELICIOUS. The crust was flaky and the filling was not too sweet (a little tart) and was just the best blueberry pie I ever had. On our next trip to Portland, we will definitely be stopping by again to pick up another pie and try other ones! I had my eye on their quiche! The staff was also very welcoming and kind!
There was ample parking and the bakery itself was very nice with lots of outdoor and indoor seating. The staff was very nice. This was our first time ever going here and we only grabbed a few pastries to go. I was not overly impressed with any of the pastries some of them were dry, but maybe if we had had them warmed up and ate them there they would've been better. The whoopie pie was the only thing that was delicious. The other items were just ok. All of the breakfast sandwiches cooking smell delicious I wish we would've tried one of those.
One of my new favorites! Went at around 10am on a Saturday and there wasn't much of a wait for anything. A truly impressive selection of baked goods and homemade pies. I tried the Nutella breakfast pastry and blueberry scone. Both were so good. My friend ordered a lemon bar and pecan pie slice. Prices were fair overall. The millionaire bar hot coffee was delicious. Lots of good places to sit or do some work on your laptop. There was also a little shopping section that was well stocked with all the essentials. Parking was easy due to lots of street parking available and a little parking lot adjacent to the bakery.
We went to the new location of Two Fat Cats Bakery (at 175 State Street) three times before I felt comfortable writing a review. The new location is on the back side of what was formerly Mercy Hospital, next to Chocolats Passion and Maine Flavor ice cream. We easily parked in one of the spots in front of the bakery each time. The shop is brightly decorated; I really liked the yellow and green color palette, and the space is full of natural light. There was plenty of seating available, both small tables and a small sofa area in the corner. There is a cooler offering a small selection of specialty grocery items as well as small salads and pre-made foods. The problem was that each time I went, I felt like I didn't get the "true experience", or that it wouldn't be fair to write a review because they were still working the bugs out. The first time we were hoping to get sandwiches, but were told that although they are open until 4, the kitchen closed at 2, so no sandwiches. We tried to order a couple of iced chais and were told they were out. On another (this time morning) visit, we ordered and paid for two iced chais, and were called to the counter to say they only had enough chai for one, and needed to order something else for the other. The chai was homemade and spicy but also really gritty, consistent with the bottom of the container. Although they offer several non dairy milks, the food at Two Fat Cats isn't vegan friendly. We asked about vegan pastries and were told it is possible to order vegan pie at the other location, but it is sold by the whole pie. I might go back for a fourth visit and try a sandwich, but only if in the area. Hopefully things will improve after they get settled at this location.
Two Fat Cats' new location is wonderful! Although their pastries, pies, and other bites have always been top notch, my one complaint about their old space was always that it felt to-go-centric and outdated--not super welcoming (visually-speaking). Their new spot is in an amazing location that is bright and airy, has a mini grocery section, and sells savory bites like quiches as well as classic pies and themed cookies. The workers were sweethearts. Seems like a great place to study, catch up with friends, or take a brief Zoom call.
A fantastic new addition to the west end! This spot is perfect for a coffee and breakfast (think pie slices or quiche) or a casual lunch with options like BLTs and wraps. They also have unique coffee creations, like the "blueberry pie" and "brown sugar toastie" lattes. The spacious seating and laid-back atmosphere make it a great place to relax. I'll be back!
A cute coffee and brunch spot! We got a small blueberry pie ($26 for 4 slices), and since this was our first blueberry pie in Maine, I can't compare it to others but it was delicious! Not too sweet, with lots of filling. The crust was flaky with a little sugar sprinkled on top, which made it even better. They offer to cut the pie for you if you're dining in so it can come out nice and pretty. For my fellow allergy folks: there's no egg in the pie! Nice little stop if you're in the area. One thing to note: it was pretty hot inside. They also have outdoor seating, but by noon there was barely any shade, so brace yourself if you plan to sit outside! read more
This place came up as a recommendation for blueberry pie, so we thought to try it. Not impressed. We ordered a Cinnamon Cardamom Latte, a slice of blueberry pie and a slice of blueberry mango pie. Didn't like the latte. Wasn't impressed by blueberry pie either. Blueberry mango was a bit better actually. The staff was nice but they forgot our beverage completely and were busy chitchatting amongst themselves instead. Had to remind them. Good location with decent amount of parking. Not trying this location at least now. read more

Excited to go back! Worth noting they stop serving lunch items (spups, sammies) after 2pm. Grabbed a pre-made cape cod chicken salad sammy instead from the fridge case. It was a little dried out but still quite tasty. Can't wait to try a freshly-made one! read more
