LB Kitchen (@lbkitchenportlandme) is growing their LB Kitchen (@lbkitchenportlandme) is growing their Mini-Mart (@lbminimart) business. The first location of the grab and go market and coffee bar opened this past March at the Rock Row Health Campus. Owners Bryna Gootkind and chef Lee Farrington are now working to open a second location at 235 Vaughan (shown here). It’s under construction in the 620 sq ft space that most recently was the West End location of Other Side Deli and previously had been the longtime home of Vaughan Street Variety. When it launches this fall it will sell salads, sandwiches, snacks, wellness items, wine, beer, and non-alcoholic beverages. There will also be a coffee bar that serves espresso-based drinks as well as LB’s lattes, bone broth, smoothies and slushies. As share in today’s press release, “We’re thrilled to bring LB. MINI-MART to more corners of Portland,” said LB. Co-founder and Chef Lee Farrington. “These new locations are a reflection of the growing demand for healthy, accessible food and the continued evolution of our mission to support everyday wellness in our community. We think of ourselves as the new corner store or gas station convenience store – when you want something quick, but at LB. MINI-MART we can satisfy the convenience without sacrificing delicious, more intentional choices.” In mid 2026 Farrington and Gootkind also plan to expand into the space adjacent to their flagship cafe on Congress Street. They’ll relocate their in-store market into the new storefront which will make way for additional customer seating in their popular daytime cafe. The original LB Kitchen opened in 2017 and moved to the corner of Smith and Congress Streets in 2023. #portlandmaine #lbkitchen #lbminimart #westendportlandmaine #mainefood

The cafe has seating for 14 inside and also a 20-seat patio located behind the building. Luncheonette is being launched by Angela Lee and Alex LeBlanc. They moved to Portland from New York earlier this year. For LeBlanc who grew up in South Portland it’s a return home. Lee’s culinary career started in NYC baking at Petee’s Pie Co from there she went on to work as a whole animal butcher at Meat Hook and as a fish butcher at Osakana. LeBlanc’s most recent position was as the sous chef at Sailor in Brooklyn, and previously was the chef de cuisine at Gus’s. When he last lived in Portland, LeBlanc had worked for Abby Harmon at Caiola’s and for Matt Ginn at Evo Kitchen + Bar. #portlandmaine #mainefood #blueberrypie #luncheonette
The Flatiron Coffee Bar (@flatironcoffeebar) is un The Flatiron Coffee Bar (@flatironcoffeebar) is under construction in the Hay Building, in the space formerly occupied by Starbucks. Renovations have been underway for some time and the goal is to launch Flatiron by the end of July. Owner Gary Perlmutter’s vision for Flatiron is for a counter-service European-style coffee bar. In addition to espresso-based drinks Flatiron will serve drip, cold brew, teas and affogatos. Dark and medium roast coffees will be available, along with decaf coffee. Perlmutter is in the final stages of selecting a roastery and bakery to supply Flatiron—stay tuned for details on both. Perlmutter and his wife Rhonda Pearle own and operate the Pearl Gallery (@pearl_gallery_maine) on the 2nd floor of the Hay Building where they exhibit their own work as well as work by other artists. They plan to use the walls of the 12-seat coffee bar to exhibit local artists. In addition to being a painter—and now a coffee shop owner—Perlmutter is also an Orthopaedic Shoulder Surgeon at Mass General Hospital. #portlandmaine #mainefood #mainecoffee #haybuilding
