North 43 Bistro
The head chef/owner is a close friend of the Skinners. Stop in for dinner or a drink with beautiful views of the marina and tell Stephanie why you're there!
Fore Street Restaurant
Bob surprised Tory with dinner here for her birthday last year. Farm to table with an open kitchen and the food/service never fail to impress. Make sure to book ahead of time!
Duckfat
Incredible fries with a variety of dipping sauces... it doesn't get better than that! Order it to go to avoid the long wait for a table.
Standard Baking Co
The best place to pop in for breakfast baked goods and bread
Eventide Oyster Co.
One of the most trendy and popular spots in Portland, you will definitely need a reservation, but it's worth it!
Allagash Brewing Company
There are plenty of breweries in Portland and Allagash is our favorite!
Blyth & Burrows
Grab a beautiful craft cocktail and bite to eat. We highly recommend the Loose Cannon for a late afternoon pick me up!
Peaks Island
Take the 17 minute ferry (Casco Bay Ferry Lines) over to Peaks Island, where you can rent a bike (Brad and Wyatt’s Bike Shop), grab breakfast (Peaks Café), ice cream (Down Front), or enjoy a lobster roll with a view (Island Lobster Company, Cockeyed Gull or the Inn on Peaks)
Portland Head Light
Visit Portland Headlight in Cape Elizabeth (where Bob lived as a kid!) and take in the lovely scenery
