Here's a great review shared from Tripadvisor (I couldn't say it any better!) "I love the patio with the chairs facing the street like in Paris,to see and to be seen! The service was very friendly and the nutella latte and chocolate croissant were excellent. They have a large selection of croissant and baked goods in the morning one of the best espresso that I have in town, they roast the beans and use a real Italian espresso machine in copper! If you are in kennebunk you have to start your morning here!"

You can't "stop" but do drive by and admire this special Kennebunkport spot, where the Bush family has spent summers since 1902. This entire stretch of Ocean Ave is a beautiful drive - or to walk it is even lovelier.

Beautiful property and trail to meander thru along the river, a very pretty and quiet area close to all the hubbub, but tucked away. Bring a book, sit and enjoy the quiet. (Not pet friendly)
