It's an excellent and inexpensive place for breakfast or lunch with one of the best selections of wines in town.
In an intimate courtyard hidden at the back of a historic brick house in the heart of downtown Bucksport, this cozy bistro has a lovely outdoor dining space. Mediterranean tapas-style plates are accompanied by good wines and beers.
