my family visited Boothbay Harbor in April for a couple of days. Our first morning we found Bridge Street Cafe and we were so pleased! Blueberry pancakes were great, French toast amazing. Constant refills on the coffee. Service was quick...even being off season the restaurant was pretty busy! We went back for clam chowder at lunch which was so fresh... More

This small, charming cafe serves exceptional breakfasts. A French toast made with Panettone satisfied my sweet tooth and sausage complemented it perfectly. Blueberry pancakes with crispy bacon brought equal pleasure to my husband. Our taste buds "cried" upon discovering they were closed the next day! You do have to look to find it above another shop-- outdoor stairs.

To be honest, good food is hard to come by in Boothbay Harbor. For some reason, my husband and I had never tried the Bridge Street Cafe. Now we're sorry we waited so long. This restaurant offers delicious soup and sandwiches with warm, friendly service. This will definitely become our go-to lunch spot in town.

I stopped by the Bridge Street Cafe on a whim while in Boothbay for a wedding. My friend and I ordered a chicken salad sandwhich to share. It was so good we ordered 3 to go, and then came back the next day before our drive home and got 3 more. Quite possible the best chicken salad sandwhich I have... More

This lovely little cafe is not fancy or pretentious - it's warm, cheerful and inviting. I love their blueberry pancakes (and do take a piece of blueberry buckle for the road!), but the highlight is the Panetonne French Toast, with bread made on site. The bread is the perfect texture, just a touch sweet and full of raisins - the... More

Both my husband and I had the blueberry pancakes which were excellent. I couldn't finish my portion, my husband wished his portion were larger. All and all great place to eat!

looking for lunch in a very touristy area and didn't want to spend more than it was worth. This place was excellent. The menu is small but everything is made fresh to order. The atmosphere is quaint and the staff super friendly!! Definitely would recommend stopping here if in Boothbay Harbor.

Basic small restaurant. Decent breakfast - home fries were real potatoes with skins on. Good alternative to waiting an hour at some of the other hot spots. Bar seating allows for quicker seating and good service for the solo traveler.

Bridge Street is a family-run cafe with a definite "local" feel. It's above a high-end souvenir shop and has big windows with a great view of the little downtown. Service was quick and friendly and the "regular" and blueberry pancakes were DELICIOUS!
