“ Had brunch here and it was great. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. This restaurant has some creative and flavorful dishes in comparison to other restaurants in the area. Well done! ”
“ We came to Food for Thought on one of the atrocious rainy days. The food was so so good, and Lauren was exceptional. She had the best attitude for someone being stuck outside in a downpour all day. We had the smash burger, lobster rangoons, chicken and waffle, chicken sandwich and the ridiculous donut grilled cheese. We loved everything! ”
“ Our waitress was super sweet! The overall vibe of this place was so cool! And the food is absolutely incredible!! We had the smash burger, burrito rice bowl, and the Nashville Hot Tenders (best tenders I have ever had)! We will, without a doubt, be back next time we come down to the beach. ”
“ Absolutely loved the paintings on the walls at this brewery,. I've been to their other location in Worcester but this one is larger and better! I got an espresso martini which was good and of course I had to try the grilled cheese donut sandwich which was amazing! My husband got a chicken wrap which had a nice spice to it. ”
“ This place was amazing even though the weather wasn't. The service was amazing, very friendly and personable. The food was omg, from the Ogunquit fries with honey and black salt, to the smashed burger with lobster mac n cheese on it, and the chicken and waffle cones. I still can taste all of that in my mouth, oh wait I will go snack on my leftovers. ”
“ Great playlist, amazing food, & Chloe was an exemplary server. She put up with all the dad jokes my boyfriend inflicted on her & it was delightful. ”
“ Just had a GREAT brunch there! I wish they were open every morning. We came with our pup and as soon as we were seated a staff member brought her a large bowl of water. Kudos for getting priorities straight! DH had steak and eggs (excellent, everything cooked perfectly to order) and I had the chicken in waffle cone. Unique presentation and some of the best succulent tasty fried chicken ever! Huge portion!!! We will definitely be back! ”
“ Awesome food, they had a great twist on traditional Maine foods. It's all outside seating, but very nice atmosphere. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and their bar offerings. It was one of our best meals while staying in the Ogunquit area. ”
