We’ve been weekend road tripping in Maine over t We’ve been weekend road tripping in Maine over the last few months to visit local favorites and hidden gems outside of the Portland area. Do you have a favorite restaurant in Maine that should go on the list? Tag or mention them in the comments here and we’ll keep them in mind for the future. Here are some photos from stops in the first half of 2022: the salmon nicoise at the @bitter_end_restaurant in Wells, a glass of Sicilian wine at the wonderful new wine bar in Gardiner @table_bar, Lewiston’s cocktail bar @sonderdram, dinner with friends at @wolfpeachmaine in Camden, Waterville’s Greek restaurant @opa_restaurant_waterville, @lemu.eats in Bethel, @statelunch in Augusta, @chezrosabistro in Kennebunkport, legendary beer bar @ebenezersbrewpub in Lovell, and Cara Stadler’s newest restaurant @zaozemaine in Brunswick. Not shown but also visited and appreciated were: the @dogbarjim coffee shop in Brunswick, the @oysterriverwinegrowers tasting roomin Camden, and both @blackbirchkittery and @lilskittery in Kittery. Maine is a big state with interesting eateries, bakeries and bars in all of Maine’s sixteen counties—stay tuned for more updates throughout the year. #16countieseats #mainefood #mainefoodmap
@hifidelitybeer recently opened in East Bayside. I @hifidelitybeer recently opened in East Bayside.

Shown here is the very satisfying bowl of beans, rice and sausage, and (out of focus and in the background) their breakfast sandwich. Hi-Fidelity is Thursday through Monday. #portlandmaine #mainebeer #hifidelitybeer #lowabvbeers

The revised and expanded 2022 PFM Printed Pocket G The revised and expanded 2022 PFM Printed Pocket Guide is now out. This handy paper reference highlights many of the restaurants, bakeries, breweries, coffee shops, cocktail bars, and cafes that make eating and drinking in Portland so compelling. 2022 remains a dynamic environment for the Maine restaurant industry so please consult the online version of Portland Food Map for the latest information and updates on openings as well as a full list of eateries in the city…and consult restaurant websites for the latest on days and hours of operation. Many thanks to the 2022 Pocket Guide sponsors. Their generous support plays a crucial role in making the guide available: @evergreen_credit_union, @thepresshotel, @canopyportlandwaterfront, @theboulosco, @winewiseevents and @verticalharvestfarms. While supplies last you can pick-up a free copy of the guide at these local businesses: @portlandtradingco, @_rose_foods_ , @oxbowbrewingcompany on Washington, @portlandyogacollective, @tandemcoffeeroasters, @brescahoneybee in New Gloucester, @rabelaisbooks in Biddeford. The pocket guide wouldn't be as good as it is, in fact it wouldn't exist at all, without the skills and contributions of Dawn Hagin from @rarebirdstrategic and graphic designer Sofija Razgaitis (@ajifos). Congratulate them on their work the next time you see them in town. #portlandmaine #portlandmainefood #mainefood #pocketguide #smallcitybigappetite
