Food Scene

Best restaurant in Blue Hill! Also has a more casual cafe-type place with a bar on the side. Definitely walking distance - across the road and up about 100 yards (not down, as this map suggests)

Best place for natural, organic foods and other items. In August 2019 it was expanded into the largest co-op in the state, and is now located up on South Street. It has a great cafe in the back.

Incredibly beautiful spot with 50 year-round & 300 summertime residents. Drive to Stonington (one of the most idyllic towns) and take the "Mail Boat" out there. About $39 RT per person.

Barncastle is the go-to restaurant and bar in the area. It's located in an old renovated castle-looking house, and has a bar in front, restaurant with great pizza etc. in back (with reasonable prices), and an inn on the second floor. They sometimes have live music in the restaurant.
