You'll see a lot of things while driving down the Phippsburg peninsula...Eagles and Ospreyskimming the water, seals playing in the waves, lobstermen hauling their traps, and fisherman telling tall tales over coffee of the one that got away. What you won't see are McDonald's, Burger King, or any type of fast food franchise.  People often ask me "Where can we eat?".  It is a little known fact that Phippsburg actually has some of the best restaurants in MidCoast Maine! So get comfortable...food is my favorite topic!

You can satisfy just about any craving without ever leaving Phippsburg!  Are you looking for something quick to grab and go on your way to Popham Beach? No problem! Swing by Bisson's Center Store. You can't miss it...it's on the main road and is one of only 2 convenience stores in Phippsburg. But it has everything you need! Pick up burgers, sandwiches, pizza, ice cream, coffee...all homemade and perfect for picnics! Grab ice for the cooler, your beverage of choice, and head for the beaches! If you're heading to Fort Popham, make sure you stop by Percy's...our second convenience store!  They also have a varied menu and the best ice cream around!

Are you looking for a place to sit down...with the kids...and watch the sun set over the water?  Once again, there are several to choose from! My favorite is Anna's Water's Edge, a fantastic spot with excellent food! They carry everything from burgers, steak, and pasta to fresh fish, lobster, and clams brought up from the adjoining wharf. Located quite literally at the water's edge, there are picnic tables right by the water, a large deck to dine outside, and plenty of seating inside if you want to get out of the sun. Owned and run by a family that has been fishing Maine waters for years...they know how to prepare fresh seafood!  Make sure you don't leave without trying the chowder!  If you're out on your boat, idle on up to the wharf, walk up the dock, and place your order at the take-out window.

Another option is Spinney's Restaurant! After a long day at Popham Beach, take a short drive down to Fort Popham. There you can dine at Spinneys while looking out over Popham waters. The food here is excellent as well! I would recommend arriving early..there is very limited parking!

Looking for fancy?  Well..we have that too!  Head on down to Sebasco Harbor Resort and enjoy dinner at The Pilot House or The Ledges. Excellent food, upscale decor, and beautiful views over Sebasco Harbor!

If you've rented a cottage or are staying at Hermit Island Campground, you might get a hankering to buy lobster right off the dock and steam it yourself! The first place I'd stop is SeaHorse Lobster in the West Point Community. Watch the boats unload their catch and then have your choice of the freshest Maine Lobster around! You might get lucky and arrive when they're having the auction....then you can watch dealers from all over the world bid on 800lb tuna fish.  That's always a sight to behold!  If you're heading back towards Bath, there are several roadside stands that sell fresh lobster as well.

As you can see, there are a wide range of dining opportunities available in Phippsburg!  If you have any questions about the community of Phippsburg or Maine Real Estate feel free to call The Hershey Home Team!
