Alright, now that we've cleared that up, which restaurant in our Pine Tree State is being recognized as one of the coziest in America?

According to Cheapism and their report on ‘The Coziest Restaurant in Every State,’ the coziest restaurant in Maine is the White Barn Inn Restaurant in Kennebunk. Cheapism had this to say about their selection:

Don't let the barn fool you: This rustic restaurant was awarded a Five Diamond Award from the AAA and offers its guests fresh, seasonally inspired fare to please any gourmand. The view out the floor-to-ceiling windows changes with the seasons — expect lush gardens in warmer months, while the winter can bring a fresh coating of snow and twinkling holiday lights.

Well, there you have it! The White Barn Inn Restaurant in Kennebunk is being called the coziest restaurant in Maine.

What are your thoughts on Cheapism’s pick? Do you agree? Have you ever been? Or do you have a cozier spot in mind? We’d love to hear from you! Join the conversation by messaging us on the app.
