The Olde Post Office Cafe In A Small Town Post Office In Maine Will Charm Your Taste Buds

We already know that Maine has some of the most adorable small towns in America, but it feels like a bonus when these little places also have adorable hidden gems. This one is housed in an old post office, which was once a community meeting place for those who called the town home. Today, you can stop in for a delicious meal while enjoying time with friends.

The Olde Post Office Cafe is housed inside a former post office building that spent most of its years as a local general store.

The current owners lovingly restored it into the cafe it is today and we think it's one of the most lovely places in the state to enjoy some time with a good meal.

The food here is fresh and locally sourced, making it a place you can enjoy with your palette and with your conscience.

Between the breakfast and lunch menu, the options are varied.

While everything is good, we love the fresh-pressed sandwiches like the Spicy Sophia featuring salami, capicola, pepperoni, tomato, red onion, provolone and chipotle mayo on sourdough.

Dinner includes things like the lobster cobb salad, pulled pork sliders and even a seared tuna taco. The one pictured here is deconstructed, which also shows how well they cater to individual tastes.

The cafe is a go-to community meeting spot and they work hard to support local artists and bands. Stop in for some live music!

The location can't be beat. It's right on Minnehonk Lake, which means some really great views.

It's easy to spend hours by the window enjoying a meal and taking in the views in any season.

Stop in if you love great food with strong community vibes.

The Olde Post Office Cafe is open 7 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Monday through Sunday. After closing at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, they’re open again for dinner from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. They’re closed on Tuesday. You can learn more about them here or visit them on Facebook. They can be reached on 207-293-4978.
