You would do yourself a great disservice by not experiencing this gem on main street in downtown Camden. Fresh, fantastic food coupled with an irresistible ambiance make this a must for any person visiting Camden or if you are a local. Get there early and try the homemade donuts,they are to die for!!

First of all...my food was fine. Dined at lunch and had a Salmon Salad. The salmon was nicely cooked and the salad greens fresh with goat cheese and pecans. The portion was a little small for the price. I just read the last review and found, too, that a couple of the booths weren't ready for the next guest but... More

My wife and I chose this place because we wanted a quick lunch and most of Camden's restaurants are overpriced for what you get. This place had reasonable prices comparatively. We walk up to the counter and I order their crab bisque and an avocado BLT. I was told they were out of avocado so I just got a standard... More

I noted a review from a friend discribing the breakfast dish she was served. It sounded like what my husband orders at our high end Mexican resort..the dish to them is huevo rancharo...My hubby LOVES the dish, and when we visit Maine ourselves, we will look up this restaurant, and check it out. I rated it excellent without even tasting... More

Really a local rendezvous and family restaurant. First class coffee and breakfast snacks. Really strong traditional New England ideas with glimpses of Mexican and others. Caring staff and fills a small town need.

Funky, artistic, creative, well-prepared, healthy breakfast food. Good vibe, young hipsters, elders, friendly, lively. Eclectic coffee, egg/omelet and other breakfast dishes. A modern Maine experience distinctive from the typical nautical themed restaurant (which have their place, too)

Boynton-McKay was great. Just steps for our hotel (Lord Camden Inn). It was surprisingly busy for an early off-season Sunday but we were greeted right away and seated in a few minutes. I like not having to struggle to get a seat. The whole process is a little confusing. You order at the back counter, self-serve coffee in the front,... More

Get one of the skillets and you will return here on vacation just because of it! The restaurant is extremely clean and friendly and any of the breakfast options are to die for. The lunch menu is also very good! Be sure to make this one of your stops along the way!
