What User likes about Salt Bay Cafe:
This café stands out because it's the only place I've ever dined at (and I travel frequently, both within and outside of Maine) that offers such an extensive vegetarian menu alongside a wide range of non-vegetarian options.

View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Salt Bay Cafe:
I would advise anyone against eating here. Food is over priced, portions are small. Waitstaff is unfriendly harried, chefs constantly yelling argueing in the kitchen. Food reheated 2-3 times before serving, fancy menu but discusting food, dish washers treated horribly, poor seating, overcrowded, wait times in excess of an hour or two. Do yourself a favor and go to another local resteraunt! View all feedback.
