Atlantica is one dining option. The food is innovative, the surroundings convivial and the contemporary ambiance nautical at this appealing restaurant on the Camden waterfront.

Francine Bistro is another dining option. Hidden on a side street, this newcomer serves some of the most innovative food in town, although the choices are severely limited, changing nightly, and the setting is funky, to say the least. Chef Brian Hill of New York took over in 2004 from the original owners, also from New York. They had converted a former bicycle shop into a casual, L-shaped, European-style bistro that’s deliberately shabby chic with church pews for benches, chocolate brown walls and a linoleum floor, four stools at the bar and a covered sidewalk patio.
“Art of food” is the theme of the new Prism Glass Studio & Gallery. Patrons enjoy watching resident glass blower / owner Patti Kissinger at work in the adjacent barn before dining in the house containing the café and Lisa Sojka’s Glass Gallery shop. Sip a glass of wine as you view the work of more than 100 glass artists, then settle down for a meal. Chef Tim Pierre Labonte’s dinner menu might start with lobster velouté topped with crème frâiche, five-spiced quail with lemon-dressed orzo or a dish called “3X Duck,” chilled roulade of mallard duck breast stuffed with duck confit and foie gras.Staying at Cedar Crest Inn for just a few days gives you ample time to enjoy the varied leisure activities not far from your doorstep, such as hiking, golfing, sailing or kayaking. If that’s a little too energetic for your tastes, a bit of cheese tasting at Maine Cheese just down the road on Route One, or museum explorations in Rockland and Owl’s Head, may be just what you’re looking for.
If you prefer walking, there are plenty of opportunities close by. Taking a journey down to Camden Village is a fifteen minute walk away, and there’s also Merryspring Gardens, which is only 150 feet or so from your door. With all that said, you can still relax and enjoy a non strenuous stay. Our quaint guest rooms are more reminiscent of a small New England Inn than the small, chain motels so common today. Our future plans include furnishing upgrades and carefully listening to guests suggestions for general, overall improvements. Your stay at Cedar Crest Inn will be complemented by personal service from a staff who aims to please. We’ll make your stay memorable and bet that you’ll return again and again.Upon check-in photo identification and credit card is required.
