Restaurants near L C Bates Museum

Entering the warm, cozy and inviting atmosphere of Franny’s on a cold and drizzly evening was just what we needed. The owner is very much present and came to our table a couple of times to see how we were doing. Our waitress was friendly and very helpful on describing the dishes. It was hard to make a decision about dinner because there were two or three options about which I couldn’t decide. I even considered a couple of appetizers for dinner. Finally, I chose swordfish and my friend the chicken dish. Both were beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. I am looking forward to going back and trying another entrée while enjoying the ambience of this wonderful gem.

Rating: ★★★★★ I recently had the pleasure of dining at Front & Main, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The entire wait staff provided fantastic service, ensuring we felt welcomed and well taken care of throughout our meal. What truly impressed me was their commitment to accommodating food allergies. I have a nut allergy, and the staff took exceptional care to inform me of which dishes were safe. They even prepared my meal with extra precautions to avoid cross-contamination, making me feel completely at ease. In summary, Front & Main is a must-visit for anyone looking for fantastic food and impeccable service, especially for those with dietary restrictions. I can't wait to return!

absolutely idyllic. I would come back in a heartbeat.

Amazing find on our way from Bangor to Portland. Stopped for lunch and had amazing oysters and first lobster roll! Cocktails very creative and tasty and service was awesome.

The elegant grand home and chef prepared meal was outstanding. A great place for a unique dinner experience.
