Family-Friendly Dining: Maine Restaurant Makes National List

Forks up, Maine! One of the best restaurants in the country is right here in our backyard. Who’s hungry?

Lovefood is a popular online food platform that provides recipes, cooking guides, food news, restaurant reviews, and meal planning.

They also make lists, which we love, so when it came down to choosing the best family friendly restaurant experience in each state, we just HAD to know what their choice for Maine was.

And the winner is:

Becky’s Diner, Portland

Housed in a waterfront cottage, on Commercial Street in Portland's Old Port, Becky’s Diner serves breakfast all day, but strap on the feed bag, because the dishes are hearty to say the least.

They go way beyond just breakfast however. There are lots of seafood options, burgers, sandwiches, soups, salads & more.

Becky Rand, opened Becky’s Diner, on March 13, 1991, right in the heart of Portland’s working waterfront district.

I recall spending many a morning eating breakfast there in the 90's, after a youthful night of enjoying the bar scene in the Old Port, and I can tell you, they are top notch.

They make it a point to use only the freshest ingredients and the best locally sourced seafood available, and are thankful for their proximity to the hard working fisherman and lobsterman of Portland and surrounding communities.

Becky's is so good, they were featured on Guy Fieri Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives!
