I love sitting outside when the weather permits but the tables and booths inside are lovely as well. The food is superb and they do take out as well!

My daughter and I love going here. We each get a chopped kale salad and share the charcuterie platter. Lots of yummy food and sitting outside is delightful. Share the big wooden tables with other folks outside or sit inside at an individual table - it's always delish.

This is a relaxing and fun place to have a beverage and a pastry. The pastries are delivered every morning from one of our French bakeries in Portland, St. Honore. They are a lovely way to start the day. My favorite is the almond croissant and the chocolate is yummy also. There's wifi and outdoor seating.

This place used to be one of the carts on Lombard but they quickly outgrew that space. They make great breakfasts and lunches - homemade and delicious.

Sightseeing

At the beach you can relax, swim, and watch huge tankers lumber past. In the summer you-pick berry farms are abundant. Stop at the stores for local jams and wine tasting. Lots of bird watching too!
