Dara Bistro Formerly The Cumberland Food Company

Absolutely amazing breakfast and pastries made from scratch! You can really taste the love they put into their cooking. Everything is perfectly seasoned, served in generous portions, and the prices are very reasonable. The ambiance is clean, beautiful, and welcoming. The service was quick, friendly, and perfect for a nice conversation. I’m excited to try their dinner menu—great job, everyone!

Unforgettable dining experience. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant. The food is of the utmost quality, featuring unique and creative combinations. I'm truly impressed by the meal, the atmosphere, and the service. It's a hidden gem! I wish them the success they undoubtedly deserve.

We can’t recommend this place highly enough. The food and service are top-notch, and there's plenty of parking available, all within 10 miles of Portland. The atmosphere is smooth and inviting. From appetizers to dessert, the menu features a well-curated selection of dishes and drinks that feel approachable rather than pretentious. We tried the pot pie interpretation, and the prickly things appetizer was absolutely delicious. The tomato chutney was a unique find that I now can't stop thinking about—I need to get a jar of it! I can’t wait to come back and try everything else on the menu!

I had some time to spare before an appointment so I came in and got a breakfast sandwich and coffee. The girls behind the counter were friendly. My sandwich was very good! made on a home made bagel (sour dough? With what looked like a home made sausage. I asked for the egg on the side for my dog who was riding with me that day and it was individually wrapped and when I opened it it looked absolutely beautiful with a nice color and it was perfectly cooked and my dog was very happy to have it after a long ride. The coffee was also hot and fresh.

Dara is hitting all the high notes of delicious food, great service, and comfortable vibe. When every dish brings praise from the table, you know something is right. We will be back.
