A new wine-centric restaurant and bar called Wayside is under construction in the former Flood’s space in The Francis hotel.
Owners Michael and Siobhán Sindoni (founders of @rollcallmaine) plan to create an establishment that can be both a restaurant and also a neighborhood spot to grab a glass wine and snack with friends. The wine program will be weighted to old world wines from Europe. #portlandmainerestaurants #portlandmainefood #portlandmaine #waysidewine #oldworldwine

@apresdrinks a cidery and hard seltzer producer is under construction at 148 Anderson Street in East Bayside. Ian Goering, former head brewer at Tributary Brewing has been hired as the head of production at Après, and the operations manager Sarah Bryan—formerly with Schilling Beer—will manage front of house operations.
Après is being launched by co-owners Ryan Houghton from the Hop Yard and Michael Cardente. Extensive renovations to the industrial building are in full swing with hopes to open the 80-seat tasting room and outdoor seating area sometime this summer.
Après is looking forward to being part of Maine’s burgeoning cider industry, and will be Portland first hard seltzer producer. The production space includes 15-barrell brewing operation and a barrel-ageing room for their cider. A food program for the tasting room is in the early planning stage and will be augmented with appearances by local food trucks.
“For people that want the most unique social drinking adventure, Après is redefining the tasting room experience by creating the most unique house-brewed hard seltzer + cider and an unforgettable social environment. We facilitate the simple act of discovery – where people enjoy rare products and connect with others in exciting ways.” #portlandmaine #portlandmainefood #mainecider #yeastbayside #eastbaysideportland #aprescider #hardseltzer

Big Tree Hospitality—the restaurant group that i

Big Tree Hospitality—the restaurant group that includes Eventide, The Honey Paw, XO, and Hugo’s—are the new owners of @higginsbeachmkt in Scarborough. Big Tree intends to operate the seasonal market much like it has been with no plans to convert it to an outpost of their Middle Street restaurants.
“It is our hope that Higgins Beach Market continues to be the well-loved local mainstay it has been for many seasons’ past, serving the Higgins Beach community and beyond. In keeping with the market’s previous offerings we will have breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus, as well as grab-and-go options, local produce, beer and wine, fresh flowers, and some sundries.”
Higgins Beach Market will be open 7 days a week, 7 am – 8 pm starting on Memorial Day weekend. #bigtreehospitality #higginsbeachmarket #scarboroughmaine #beachseason

The highly anticipated opening of Jackrabbit Cafe

The highly anticipated opening of Jackrabbit Cafe (@jackrabbit.maine) is slated to take place late next month—tentatively on April 21st. The bakery and cafe from @elda.maine chef/owner Bowman Brown will “focus on Scandinavian-inspired breads and pastries as well as seasonal vegetable dishes, sandwiches, and heartier small plates”.
Jackrabbit is located in the first floor of 14 Main Street in Biddeford. The second floor of the newly renovated building will be the future home of Elda when it re-opens.
Brown moved to Maine from Salt Lake City where he was the co-owner and chef of Forage. He was a @foodandwine Best New Chef in 2011. Additionally, Brown was six time Beard semifinalists in the Best Chef: Southwest from 2011 to 2016. Elda was named one of the Best New Restaurants in America by Bill Addison at Eater in 2018, and was the feature of a New York Times article in that same year. A copy of the draft menu is on the Portland Food Map website (link in bio).
