The Plates Are Piled High With Seafood At The Delicious Gurnet Trading Co. In Maine

Being in Maine means incredible views and some of the best food in the country. Most of all, it means delicious seafood at your fingertips! In the summer you’ll find it around just about every bend in the road, but in the winter things can get a bit harder. That’s why we love this spot. They’re open in the winter and the amount of food they offer will fill your belly and your plate!

During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date.
For the cutest little seafood shanty with some seriously delicious food look no further than Gurnet's Trading Co. in Brunswick.
