Our family enjoyed a morning visit to Ogunquit on July 6, 2026. The cool morning and partly cloudy…read moreskies were lovely. We arrived at 8:15am with plenty of parking available at Obed's Lot ($6.25 per hour), which is near the north entrance to Marginal Way (opposite end from Perkins Cove). After crossing the busy street (Shore Road) and turning right, it's a short walk (3 minutes) slightly uphill before you see the north entrance to the Marginal Way on your left (check Google Maps). For those planning a morning visit to Ogunquit, I had two tips. First, try to arrive no later than 9am during peak summer months. At 8:15am, we had a peaceful experience with some people but not huge crowds. By 9:30am, we saw many groups of visitors walking on the trail. Second, go to a public restroom BEFORE walking on the Marginal Way - which does not have a restroom facility (until Perkins Cove). Finally, dogs are prohibited from the Marginal Way during the summer (April 1 to Sept 30) with a $100 fine for violators. Overall, it's well worth a visit - but expect to see lots of people during the summer!

"Your disguise can't hide all the features Of marginal…read morecreatures at best" (Little Feat) While we were exploring coastal Maine, we kept hearing rave reviews about Ogunquit--and especially the Marginal Way. So, on our drive home, we made a little detour and stopped in to see what all the fuss was about. Ogunquit was packed with tourists. A friendly police officer directed us to a parking lot near town hall, so all we needed next was to find the Marginal Way. That wasn't easy to do, because whatever on-line addresses we found for the entrance didn't work out. A friendly passerby gave us solid directions, and we soon found a small entrance sign. So, what on earth is the Marginal Way and where did that bizarre name come from? Well, it owes its existence to a remarkably generous donation. Back in 1925, Josiah Chase, Jr. donated a strip of oceanfront land to Ogunquit, kick starting what would become one of Maine's most beloved seaside strolls- a 1.25 mile cliff hugging path with some serious Maine-like scenery. Think of crashing waves, beach flowers, rocky cliffs, and even a lighthouse. We loved our scenic stroll along the flat wide paved path. I did see some more adventurous souls climb down toward the water, picking up rocks, setting up tripods for photo shoots, or filming Tik-Toks or Instagrams videos for "likes". One more thing: why is it called the "Marginal Way"? The name refers to its location on the margin between land and sea.

The city is already on the edge of becoming an accidental artists colony, and it will be interesting to see what else can take root in Biddeford.

You can get some really good deals on just about anything. I never leave there empty handed. One word of caution - don't go on Thursday afternoons - that's when the food pantry is open and parking is a nightmare. They are open 10-5 seven days a week.

There's a couple pool tables and huge bar in the bar section. You can rent the huge connected ballroom for large events of 350 or more. Price is about 600 -- 450 for members. We're having our class reunion here! There is also a smaller nice room upstairs that holds about 150. I've been coming here for years off and on and stop by if I need to see a friendly face.

I'm not a member of the Legion, as I live out of state but my brother & his wife are. I joined them…read morehere on a Wednesday night to cheer them on during their dart league. Its located in a mall plaza can't really tell you much about whats around as it was night when we arrived. The mall parking lot is kinda dart. The Legion is a nice, cozy small welcoming place. We walked into the dinning room area that was rearranged due to the dart teams making room to be able to play darts. Right next to the dinning area is the bar. Its nice & cozy with lights around the wall & these super, kick ass chandler like lights hanging above the bar. I meant to get a picture of them but forgot. The bartender Margo was very nice & didn't have a problem separating my brother's tab up @ the end of the night as I was putting drinks on them. I did offer to run my own tab but she told me it wasn't a problem for her to separate things at the end. Super cool cause you know how some bartenders/waitstaff can get with "separate checks." I never really waited long to get a drink. The place was busy when I first got there @ 7pm but they said after 8:30pm people clear out. Not an issue for me as I was surrounded by dart players & friends. When I had to go use the bathroom I was super impressed!! They have separate bathrooms for ladies & men When I walked into the ladies room it smelt so good! If your a Bath & Body shopper like myself, then you'd recognizer their plug in in the outlet. They also had a yummy smelling hand soap from there too! Bathroom was private & the size was just right. Very clean. At one point when I was up @ the bar with some friends & got to chatting with Margo & met the owner Kandace I had to tell her how much I LOVED the bathroom. Kandace takes such pride in the Legion & it shows. Sine I'm such a big Yelper when I went to go check-in the Legion wasn't listed so of course I had to add the business. I kept bugging my brother for the address as he was trying to write out the dart play list but I got the Legion on here & I shared that with Kandace when I said "You guys aren't even on Yelp." The Legion apparently was in a different location & they moved to this one. So of course I had to go around & take a few pics & spice their page up. I'm not sure what the requirements of membership are here, but you can always call and ask. I was never in the service & I was a guest. Drinks were real cheap & yummy. I didn't get a chance to try any of their food they have. Seems like a small bar menu, there's a small kitchen behind their bar. OMG I forgot to mention their pull & play tabs. $1.00 a ticket, no scratching required. Just bend the card to split the tabs & pull each one of them back looking for 3 of a kind or 2 of a kind with 1 special winner. I bought $8.00 worth & unfortunately didn't win but being a Vegas resident I always say "I only gamble what I can afford to lose!" I had a few seconds of fun with these pull tabs. :-) I hope to venture here another time with my brother/sister-in-law while home or on any other visit home. Very nice, friendly & welcoming bar. Thank you!! :-)
