    Kids play area
    Mark F.

    Wallingford's Fruit house is near and dear in my heart. This on orchard fruit house carries the soul reaching smells of warm apple cider, fresh fried donuts, and seasonal fruits collected from the farm! The service and staff of the fruit house and farm are endearing and kind. The fruit house actively offers tractor rides around the seasonal crops for picking, a free corn maze that is large enough to entertain for an hour, and a massive outdoors play area for the kids to play in and on for a half day, and a petting zoo comprised of ducks, goats, chickens, and more!!

    Once upon a time you could go to Wallingfords, take the tractor pick apples, eat fresh apple cider donuts and dumplings at the picnic tables and bring home a pumpkin. Those were the good ole' days. Oh wait, do I sound like my mother? Nowadays they're very commercialized. I give props though - farms have to be creative to create financially sustainable situation and that's what it appears Wallingfords has done. What do I mean by commercialized? * kids barnyard and play areas * Cider tasting room * corn maze * all the fall/winter baked goods * various other foods * random toys/stuff for sale * so much popularity that you're lucky to find parking on the weekend I'm glad this small business has found a way to succeed and now I just make time during the week for my annual donut visit to avoid all the chaos.

    Wallingford's is amazing. There's something for everyone! Lots of playgrounds for the kiddies, apple picking, animals to pet, there was a small craft fair when we came, lots of produce to shop for, and of course--the amazing apple dumplings. We went to Rickers hard cider and ordered a hard cider sampler with ciders such as caramel apple, blueberry, vanilla, cranberry gold, and apple pie, and maple.

    Perfect apple farm with everything you need for the fall season! Great selection of apples, pumpkins, fresh hot donuts. They also have frozen and baked fruit pies. We have been going here for the past 10 or so years. Checking out can be a little bit of a wait, but that's what you get for a popular place.

    The first thing you notice is the giant special flag outside their main building advertising their political views. Fine, but it took away slightly from the "fall fun" atmosphere. I came for a few things: a nice corn maze, apple cider donuts, the apple dumplings, a fun time with the puppies, and apples. First thing we did was try the dumplings, which are actually more like personal apple pies. They tasted like how you expect a decent pie to taste. There were many bees fighting for the sugar! Tons and tons and tons of kids everywhere. They had an interesting setup for the kids to play in which was neat, so definitely a good place for the family. Next we went to the maze. Halfway one of the workers said unconfidently that the maze was closed for work. No sign, just a rude kid telling us too bad...? Okay, so we went apple picking. There was a tractor driving people to the other side of the orchard because the front rows were no more, but we decided to walk. I think this was the best orchard we've been to. The apples were decently good, it was quiet and serene, and they had a lot of varieties. We spent probably an hour just walking around and sitting under apple trees, so lovely! And that was mostly it. We got our 6 dozen donuts that were alright, like others have said there is a lot going on here -- tasting room, hot dogs and pizza, which was fine. It felt chaotic but the pumpkins were beautiful and people were decently nice, most looked disaffected and not interested in being there. It was a good day and it does still feel mom and pop-y -- we did everything we wanted and I would probably go again if not just for the apples. Get there in September for the earlier varieties!

    It's blueberry time!

    Growing up in the area I would anxiously anticipate the fall opening of this fruit house. I'd ride my bike up not one, but two monstrous hills just to snag a whoopie pie or fresh cider donut. Now the fruit house is open year round. During my visit this afternoon I saw signs to pick your own blueberries, so fun! There were also bales of hay for sale which seemed to be an interesting offering. Inside the fruit house is shoppers galore. A large kiddie section of toys and trinkets, cooler full of local apple cider, local spice and tea blends, local libations (cranberry wine, blueberry beer, cider), and let's not forget the fudge, cookies, apple pies, whoopie pies and donuts. Snagging one of each flavor donut (blueberry, chocolate, and plain) I was out the door. Gotta love the mouth feel of that granulated sugar covering each donut. I'll definitely continue to visit on each trip home to Maine. One thing I'd love to see is more organic offerings.

    We visited Wallingford's in early October. It was beautiful land to explore! There were animals to pet and activities for the kids. The donuts and crisps were just ok but it was overall a good experience!

    Amazing experience!! There are so many apples of all different kinds, a corn maze, delicious cider doughnuts and apple dumplings, and hard cider! For apple picking, you can walk around on your own, or get on a tram and get driven to the inner orchard. They offer hard cider flights- each flavor is only $1, and when we went they had 17 different kinds! It was the perfect end to a great afternoon of apple picking.

    Apple Picking is open for the season but really I went to get the hot sugary donuts. This place turns me into a little school girl. I have been busting at the seems to get my hands on these donuts. The cider apple are my favorite but they do have choc and pumpkin. And the apple dumplings are yummy too. Served with vanilla sauce and/or vanilla ice cream. It is expensive for a little dish of pleasure but I love my once a year treat that I just had to get one. As with any apple orchard you can pick and take the wagon ride out to the fields but I love walking around this quaint store. Taffy, honey sticks, jams and jellies, syrup, fudge, fresh veggies, hot cider...need I say more??? You can watch as the donuts are made and take in the aroma that makes me tingle just thinking about it...ahh I love this place!

    Big place with lots to offer! We visited and immediately realized that Ricker Hill Cider had a tasting room outside. Naturally we got a pour and THEN visited Wallingfords. I saw great deals on melon on Facebook and went but quickly learned that what was left of the fruit was less than ideal. I bought 1 melon and no corn, unfortunately. They seemed to be pushing out fresh donuts constantly, but I didn't have one. Great prices!

    I live in Saco, Maine and came into Lewiston to meet up with a good friend of mine. He told me…read moreabout this awesome bakery and how everything is so good there. He knew I loved chocolate eclairs, and told me this is the spot to go! His words and enthusiasm about this bakery did not disappoint! I bought one eclair and took a bite of it in the car and had to run back in to buy one more for the road for when I got home later. It was perfect. I will have to go back and try some other desserts or have him bring them to me next time he's down my neck of the woods. They have a great wide range of desserts to choose from and I guarantee you will be satisfied.

They have a handful of flavors from classic (chocolate cake and vanilla frosting, maple, chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting, and vanilla with vanilla frosting). While they sell at other stores in the area I highly recommend dropping in to meet and interact with the folks that make the magic happy. Don't worry if you don't live nearby - you can order online for delivery all over the country. Also they freeze well and let me tell you they are terrific heated up in the microwave. If you do go in person definitely take advantage of their specials. Just call ahead to see what their deals are. We scored a fab steal with a buy one get one special. And don't forget to tip the staff, they work super hard to make a classically delicious Northeastern delight.

We went with a non-traditional theme which included cupcakes a wedding topper cake for the dessert. We chose Grant's Bakery to do the topper cake and worked with Gary, one of their cake makers. Gary walked us through their process, portfolio and what options were available to us. He understood our theme and produced a white and gold themed topper cake which was spot on. My wife LOVED it and it. Unfortunately my wife and I were not able to have the cake for our wedding reception as we had to cancel due to a major incident impacting several of our Maine towns, but Gary was patient and willing to still make the cake despite their store being shut down for 2-3 days due to the incident. We pushed the due date for the cake to be ready, out a few days and when my wife picked it up, she LOVED it and complimented him several times on how he hit the theme with colors and the simplistic design. We were not looking for a large elaborate cake and despite the simple design, it exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend Grant's Bakery for your wedding cake needs!

Our favorites are the outrageous and the pumpkin chocolate chip, but we've never tried a kind we didn't like. The biscuits, chicken pot pie, coleslaw, and baked beans are also delicious.

They of course have an excellent stock of maple syrup supplies, as one would expect from the store name. We grabbed some maple syrup jugs to bottle our own syrup when we stopped in on Maine Maple Sunday!
