Lots of homemade goodness; instead of butter it’s maple butter, fries are made with Maine potatoes, etc.

Backstrap Bar and Grill
161 Main StSolid relatively new restaurant addition to town.
Biggest pancakes we’ve ever seen, among other breakfast standards. If it looks full don’t be discouraged, there’s an extra room in the back. (*Note this establishment does not seem to be particularly COVID-careful so we are sitting it out foe the time being. Woodsman and Orange Cat in Kingfield and Dellies at Sugarloaf are other good breakfast options.

Daily Deerapalooza
Every day between 2-3pm, for a good 50 years, a family has been feeding deer at their farmhouse on Kennebago Road. Anywhere from 50-200 deer show up around that time daily. Spectators are welcome, but must approach slowly in vehicles. There is also a bucket where they accept donations toward the deer feed.
Here is the location:

Pro tip: When turning around, stay clear from the edge of the road as it can be soft enough to swallow your whole wheel (I learned this the hard way).
