Oarweed Restaurant Review

  1. imageOver Memorial Day weekend Jim and I decided to take a drive (or THREE hour tour) to Perkins Cove in Ogunquit, Maine. We had a gorgeous day on a long holiday weekend! We decided to walk the Marginal Way which is one of New England’s only paved public shoreline walkways. This stretch is just over one mile with the most spectacular views you will ever see. After our walk we went to the Oarweed Restaurant in Perkins Cove.  There were  several shops and restaurants.  This was a recommended by one of the adorable shop ladies from Unique’s & Antique’s) . The Oarweed Restaurant sits right on the marginal way walkway. It has indoor and outdoor seating with incredible views no matter where you sit, both in or out of  the restaurant.

We started by splitting a cup of their fish chowder ($6.75), this was so rich and creamy and filled with large pieces of fish and lobster! We loved it so much we ordered a BOWL of it to go!

Jim ordered a hamburger ($7.00) I know…ordering a burger at a lobster restaurant while over looking the ocean… I will never understand, but it was cooked to his taste and was excellent!

I had the crab cakes with a spicy mayo sauce. This was a special that day and I did not write the price down,  I think it was in the ten dollar range though. This dish was also very good, lots of crab but I have to say the star of the dish was the spicy mayo!
We did not get dessert, but look forward to going back again!

After our lunch we went to our favorite store in the entire cove!  Unique’s & Antiques! I have been there prior to this trip and every time I go in I find so many fantastic items, everything from Christmas items, Halloween items, antiques, estate jewelry and the most gorgeous wreaths that the owner Rusty makes!

If you want him to make you a custom wreath he will happily do so! Make sure you come in early for the best selection of the ribbons!!  This store is a must visit every time we go to the area!

I hope you take some time to enjoy this beautiful area in Ogunquit Maine!
