One of the best things about Maine is the many small shops and restaurants that exist in every single town. Full of heart and loved by the community that visits them each day, these places all have something special about them. From the ambiance to the staff to the delicious food created each day, this particular spot in the midcoast is extra-special.

Referred to simply as “the buns,” these little delicacies started as just a menu offering, but it was soon clear that the cinnamon buns and sticky buns were the stars of the show around here!

The cinnamon buns are made with soft sweet dough that have delicious swirls of cinnamon as well as a wonderful white icing. The sticky buns are made with layers of sweet dough topped with caramel and covered with whole pecans.

And they often get some special touches like these cinnamon buns with golden raisins, walnuts, and an orange glaze.

The popularity of these treats means it’s common to see a line for ordering. And, there’s even a demand for shipping. We love them for special occasions and holidays.

Best of all, when the weather is nice, you can enjoy them outside on the deck.

The buns here could be their own meal, but if you’re the type that prefers a more traditional meal they’ve got plenty to offer on their menu. Including this breakfast quesadilla.

At lunchtime, grab a sandwich with a side of chips.

And if you want to counteract all that sugar, consider ordering one of their salads.
