Food Scene

Great restaurant. Even better for drinks and small plates. They have a good happy hour and the sidewalk seating is a great location for a nightcap.

The best coffee around. Their roasting is lighter so expect to find some really bright nuance to your daily fix. They're also opening up a shop a few hundred feet from the apartment!

This restaurant is the little sister to Portland's Grand Dame of dining, Fore Street. We love the food here even more than Fore Street which is a bonus because it's easier to get a reservation!

Amazing authentic Mexican food. If you want great enchiladas and other staples without any fan fare then this is the place to go. It is a bare bones interior. Good place to watch soccer

This is the opposite of Taqueria Tequila. It has ambiance and creative twists on favorites. A little bland for our taste but sometimes it does the trick and it's all what you're looking for.

Drinks & Nightlife

Such amazing Thai food and very different from the usual fare. With a focus on Thai street food and regional food it really does live up to it's motto of being a "very thai kitchen."

It's fun to take the mail boat and see all of Casco Bay (you can bring drinks and a picnic). It's a quick Ferry ride to Peaks or Great Diamond which both have restaurants.
