Mainers, we know that your first love is lobster. And while we’re not trying to minimize the importance of the many-legged crustacean in our lives, we do think some other foods are worthy of our attention. We’ve got great burgers, we’ve got great ice cream and we’ve got great BBQ. But, there’s one more thing worth talking about: Bacon! This bacon restaurant in Maine has everything that bacon dreams are made of!

A bacon themed restaurant might be unexpected in a state that reveres all things seafood.

But, bacon actually isn't all that different from lobster when you think about it! Both foods have a cult-like following and they're both worth dedicating an entire meal to. And when you do: House of Bacon in Auburn is the place to do it!

The BLT is piled so high with bacon that one recent visitor claimed to have counted TWENTY strips.

The burger gets rave reviews and also comes with an almost unbelievable amount of bacon. Did we mention that there are more than ten different varieties of bacon to choose from? Even those with vegan diets will have something to choose from.

The creme brulee French toast features what feels like half a loaf of bread, bacon jam and their special whiskey bourbon maple syrup.

Even pancakes come with a solid side of...you guessed it: bacon!

Another winner? The make-your-own bloody mary bar open from 8am to 3pm. If you love bacon, you'll love the house-made bacon infused vodka!
