Bruciato recently opened and has been a huge success. It is right in the middle of downtown Winslow and serves wood-fired pizza. There's a community table, and a long bar... It gets busy, but the pizza is worth it!

If you're looking for a good breakfast, this is the place we recommend. A pretty straightforward menu (omelettes, scrambles, waffles, etc.), but great quality. Gets very busy, especially on the weekends!

The Blackbird is sort of the heart of Winslow. A small bakery, it is usually bustling with locals and tourist alike. Lots of delicious baked goods, and great coffee and tea as well.

If you're looking for a quiet, more upscale place to dine, this is our favorite spot. Chef Brendan McGill opened it about five years ago, and it really is an amazing spot. It features lots of local dishes and ingredients, and the food is really fantastic. A great place for a romantic dinner or with a group of friends.

Our vote for best sandwiches and coffee on the island! This deli is located next to Hitchcock restaurant, and features incredible sandwiches and the best espresso drinks around. Gets busy in the summer during the day, but worth the wait.

A great all-around restaurant on the water. Perfect for families (everything from burgers to seafood) and lots of tables overlooking the marina.

Across the street from Bay Hay and Feed (our local feed store and plant nursery - known by all on the island), this hidden spot has incredible fare. Fresh pasta and sauces for takeout, a couple of amazing soups and sandwiches on the menu and delicious wood-fired pizza.
