Food Scene
Clayton's is a Yarmouth staple. Great spot to pick up (or enjoy there) a cappuccino, sandwich, salad, pastry, etc. You can purchase wine here as well and I must say they have a great little selection. Their lemon bars are a must!!

Wonderful farm to table. I generally go on Sundays for their brunch. Around 12p they have a blues band that plays. It's a wonderful local spot where you'll see lots of families, friends, and neighbors getting together. It's a very vibrant spotl. Their hours for lunch and dinner are limited so be sure to check out the website.

This place is a consistent great meal. Try their calamari and lobster and squid ink raviolis. They also have wood-oven pizzas. Friday and Saturday nights are busy so plan to call ahead for a reservation or plan to wait 25-30 minutes at the bar for your table.

Take time to explore the East End also referred to as Munjoy Hill in Portland. Beautiful views and excellent food scene. The Front Room has been a longstanding restaurant and makes an amazing Benedict. Also make a pretty mean Bloody Mary.

Local spot for a great cocktail. It's at the bottom of the Armory. It's definitely quieter and darker. Great for a nightcap.

One of my favorite beaches... beautiful drive up route 1. During summer months, plan to arrive before 10am to guarantee a parking spot as they keep it limited. When the tide goes out it creates many tidy pools where you can find sand dollars and other treasures. You can also walk out to a little island and climb to the top which is always a fun activity.
