Fried pickles
Susan B.

This locations has been going downhill for years. Today we were sat down around 230pm and no one came to ask about water or even acknowledge we were there for almost 20 minutes. The service was meh and the food wasn't as tasty as it's been in the past. Portions are also a bit smaller (we did get the luncheon portion). Gave a low score due to the wait time

Twin lobster special on Thursdays
Michele F.

My mom and I stopped in for lunch today after shopping at the outlet stores. We decided to split the Admiral's Platter, which was comprised of fried haddock, bay scallops, shrimp and clam strips, accompanied by french fries and creamy cole slaw. While the plate was a good size to share, the food was just ok. Mom and I agreed that the haddock was the best part of the dish. The clam strips were good, but not terribly crunchy, and the scallops and shrimp were both tiny. The french fries were a bit soggy and flavorless. The cole slaw was good. The staff was friendly and helpful, but the food was mediocre. It's a reasonably priced restaurant to grab an ok meal in the area.

Lobster pie

Great food for a fair price! We came in for the wicked cheep twin lobsters on Thursdays - what a great deal! Andre was our server and was awesome, honestly made the night for us. Cute lil vibe inside quiet music so easy to talk to everyone at the table. Chowder was a last min add neither of us regretted.

Grilled chicken sandwich,  and a small amount of French fries.  Tasty though.

Our routine has been to stop in for lunch after driving up the coast from our state. We generally get here right at lunch opening. Today we were seated right away and contacted by the peasant server quickly. Decided to try the fried haddock sandwich. Got one as listed with sourdough bread and we wanted to switch out the bread for something else. They only had a hamburger bun to swap so we went with that. Sandwich was very tasty, the sourdough tasted like a toasted sandwich bread which was nice. Also had a cup of clam chowder. Rich and creamy and very tasty.

Half & half fried seafood with fries and a margarita

Amazing service from kind staff, food and drink was amazing! And good portion for the price too!

Shrimp cocktail
Beth Ann M.

This was good, not great. I can only judge on my one visit. I had shrimp cocktail and the clam chowder. The shrimp were chilled and properly cooked, but there was barely any cocktail sauce to dip them in - it comes in the base of the glass. The clam chowder was decent but mine didn't have many clams. Maybe it was just the luck of the ladle. My friends had the fish chowder and fish and chips which they seemed to enjoy. The fish and chips looked crispy, not greasy. Definitely a good spot to stop for lunch if you were just over looking at the Kittery Trading Post. It's literally just across the street and they have plenty of seating. Our server was pleasant, but we had to chase her down for the check.

Steamed clams!
Tami W.

Wow! What an awesome blast from the past! Steamed clams served fresh from this quaint little place on the Maine coast!

Lobster roll

Oh my this was great! Waitress Christina was fabulous. Went to a different place first but this place had better parking and access to the restaurant

We ate here many years ago and stopped here again for lunch. Comfortable atmosphere, friendly attentive waitress, nice menu. We ordered the fish chowder made with haddock, fish and chips and grilled salmon with an apple maple glaze. Everything was tasty, came hot hot, plated nicely. Great batter on the fried fish and the salmon was tender and seasoned nicely. We enjoyed our lunch. Prices on par with the area. We had a memorable meal.

Cozy down home restaurant with tasty fried options. We went for lunch today, and we're seated promptly. We ordered the onion centers as well as the baked haddock and fish and chips. Everything was delicious and we will return!

So so touristy seafood restaurant with nothing special. The lobster tails are deep fried which was a definite turn off.

I discovered Nectar Cafe a few years ago. I had been looking for somewhere to stop for a quick…read morebreakfast on my way from CT to Freeport, and they seemed perfect. I have since grown to love them, so on my most recent trip to Maine, I was excited to return. I just ordered coffees this time, but they were 2 of their September drink specials. It was actually how I celebrated national coffee day! In the past I have had their breakfast sandwiches and breakfast burritos (though I'm not 100% sure they still offer the latter), both very tasty and well/thoughtfully made. This time, I had their oatmeal cookie latte & their harvest moon cold brew. I preferred the cold brew, but was very happy with them both. The cold brew had a house made pumpkin syrup, vanilla, vanilla cold foam, & cinnamon. The pumpkin syrup was excellent and provided strong flavor without overtaking the coffee. The other flavors of the drink played off of it nicely. The oatmeal cookie latte had marshmallow fluff, caramel sauce, toasted marshmallow syrup, an oat milk base, and an oatmeal cookie garnish. I think the oat milk just thinned it out a bit and softened the other flavors. I've noticed oat milk lattes often hit me a bit weaker in flavor. It was tasty still, I just thought the Harvest Moon cold brew was a stronger special. Super friendly and helpful staff. I needed help deciding on my second drink, and they were great and happy to help! The trailer is always in front of Bell Farm Shops, and it's a pretty environment. There are always cute decorations from the shop outside. I would highly recommend a visit to Nectar Cafe. It's a great pit stop as well if you're traveling North from out of state, but I imagine if I lived closer, I'd be a regular.

Great selection of pastries and coffees. I went for the cinnamon roll and WOW! It's the perfect cinnamon roll with the fluffy bun and perfect cream cheese frosting. I also opted for a cold brew and loved that they had sugar free vanilla syrup to go in it. The girls at the window were wonderful and so polite. Definitely a place i'll come back too.

We celebrated our 12 year wedding anniversary while touring New England…read more We actually just happened upon this place because the first restaurant that we went to, across the street, was out of a couple of dishes that my husband wanted. Well, I'm happy that they were because dinner here was SOOOO good! The bartender helped us choose a bottle of champagne to start. We shared everything. One of each of the deviled eggs each. The maple cranberry was interesting. The sour cream chive one was to die for! The ricotta gnocchi was elegant and fluffy. The sauce made it over the top. The ribs were good, but I'm a Midwest girl. They just don't compare to back home. The clam linguine was seasoned perfectly. It was quite filling. We ended with the Apple Olive Oil cake with maple ice cream. The cake itself was quite dense and dry. The ice cream helped. I would not order this dessert again. Service was quite SLOWWWW, and for no reason as they weren't very busy while we were there. There were long gaps between courses and then once we were finished we kind of just sat there for a while. The food was worth it but something is not running efficiently and could be improved. Still giving 5 starts because it was so good and everyone was welcoming.

Many thanks to Yelp for helping us locate a fabulous place for our last evening in Portsmouth…read morebefore heading back to California. I love the vibe. It's pretty chill and classy at the same time. Our server dazzled us with his smile. We had a cocktail that we enjoyed very much. The mushroom melange on the grilled baguette was to die for. My friend and I shared the fried green tomatoes and they were perfection. My friend was quite pleased with her crab cakes that were cooked at the right amount of crispiness. I certainly will return when I visit Portsmouth again!

A great selection of seafood apps, and a variety of meat options in the entree section (steak, chicken, lamb, short rib, duck) and a couple of vegetarian items. Something for everyone. It was a Tuesday night and pouring rain. We arrived without a reservation. It was very busy. The bar and restaurant were full. There were two side bar seats available which we happily took while we waited for a table. We had a delicious cosmo and a glass of prosecco while we waited. The server let us know our table was ready, and we did not need to settle our bar tab before going to the table. I love that! I find it inconvenient when restaurants ask people to do that. The server even took our sopping umbrellas and put them in the umbrella stand by the door for us. So nice! We tried 2 appetizers, the Caribbean Curry Mussels and the Seared Ahi Tuna. I can't decide which one I loved more. Both were fantastic. The broth the mussels were in was so flavorful, rich, salty, not spicy, coconut deliciousness. I wanted to eat it all like a soup. There was no bread served with the mussels to soak up the broth...which I would have loved, but not having it did save me some carbs. The seared tuna was absolute perfection. Very slightly seared and served with a well dressed seaweed salad and two sauces (coulis style ) a charred jalapeño aioli and a mango coulis. For dinner we shared the arugula salad with strawberries and goat cheese (although there was very little goat cheese) in a delicious poppy seed vinaigrette, and the miso Marinaded seared salmon with sticky rice and mango salsa. The salmon was fantastic...perfectly cooked, very flavorful, the sticky rice was so delicious and chewy, and the mango salsa added sweetness. I love that they split the salad into two dishes for us. I love when restaurants do this. It's a nice touch to acknowledge the server was listening the we intend to share, and to make it easier for us to do so. And we shared a bottle of Pinot Grigio. I will be back!
