One Of The Most Romantic Restaurants In The Entire Country Is Right Here In Maine

The White Barn Inn & Spa in Kennebunk is an award-winning, historic restaurant known for its romantic ambiance and exquisite cuisine.

It might not be Valentine's Day, but there's something about the upcoming summer weather that has us feeling like love is in the air. Maybe it's the fact that we can actually leave the house these days, finally free from a cold, long winter. Or, maybe it's just that there are so many opportunities for romance here in Vacationland. Whatever the reason, we're welcoming it with open arms. As we do that, we're putting this restaurant on our "must-visit" list. It was once named to the list of Most Romantic Restaurants in America and you'll see why!

The White Barn Inn & Spa might sound like only a hotel and spa, but it's also an award-winning restaurant.

It's been a mainstay landmark in Kennebunk for over 150 years.

And it was named to Open Table's list of Top 100 Most Romantic Restaurants in America, a list so exclusive that 17 states didn't even appear on it!

The White Barn can be found in two 1820s-built barns that have since been restored.

Guests can sit at tables in private little nooks, located in what were once the barn's horse stalls.

Its romance is unmatched by any nearby restaurant, but the food is just as special!

The five-diamond kitchen serves up delicacies such as Lobster Fettuccine.

And a lobster roll the likes of which you likely won't find in any of the local takeout spots.

For dessert, consider something like the Bananas Foster Crepe Soufflé which is flambéed tableside.

Or, dig into a simple (but not simple at all!) sundae.

Everything here is made with a special touch, giving the restaurant something unique.

The grounds of the White Barn Inn are lovely and feature this beautiful natural pool where you can enjoy a cocktail in the summer.

But, if your idea of romance is being anywhere with your love, you can have the hotel pack you a picnic lunch to enjoy anywhere you choose!

The White Barn Inn is located at 37 Beach Avenue in Kennebunk. You can reach them on (207) 967-2321. Visit them on Facebook for more information.

If large portions and perfect sandwiches are your true love, you just might consider THIS restaurant the most romantic place in Maine!
