Rooted Heart was so nourishing from the atmosphere to the food I really enjoyed every moment of being here. A must try! And make it a regular place you go because it’s about community building too! I went for a coffee and I left with dried Calendula, Tallow for skin, chamomile, all fresh picked and locally sourced! The granola and swallowtail farm yogurt were to die for, and I got the breakfast sandwich too. So yummy. Bring your friends. 10/10

Amazing breakfast spot!! So cute and cozy inside, delicious fresh eats and drinks. The lavender kombucha is so refreshing and not too ferment-y.

Rooted Heart Cafe is such a welcome addition to our community! The food and beverages are beautifully cultivated and prepared, the staff is helpful and kind, and the space is cozy and inviting. I tell all of my clients to go there for brunch after class, and it is my go-to spot for a special beverage before running errands. The baked goods and sandwiches are fabulous, too! BONUS: they hold events and support their local community — great people, great food, great presence!

Exactly what I needed.
Rooted Heart Cafe was a serendipitous discovery and adventure to original find an apothecary near Portland. Grateful to have found the cafe and made the trip over with my friends. It is a hub for greater connection to all life.
You can sense the love, passion and care in the food, staff, herbs, land and even the customers who are drawn there.
I had some cacao, a vegan sourdough cinnamon bun and bought some blue lotus.
Great conversation with a local woman sitting next to me, the owner and staff.
My friends and I pulled some agreement oracle cards at the table and engaged in great reflection and conversation.
If Maine is where I move next, I will be a local 🙂
Thank you

It would be easy to want to gatekeep this place- it’s really magical. There are fresh rotating juices, soups and salads made from local ingredients to go, gluten free and vegan options, green tea from Yunnan Province, and for the lactose down bad they make hazelnut milk in-house. The atmosphere is antique garden witch (there is at least one very sweet cat with extra toe beans outside, which is a plus). There’s a large, family-style long table to sit at if you’d like. I had a chai and an egg and sausage sandwich on homemade gf sourdough- the bread was warm and soft, the eggs were light and fluffy. The chai wasn’t too sweet and was delightfully spicy and complex. The apothecary is ever growing and plentiful, the food is well priced for its quality and the vibe is extremely calming. They also have other products for sale over the counter aside from take-home foods- like local art, earrings, soap, fancy apple cider vinegar, etc. Love it in here, so happy to have an apothecary close by

This place has been a godsend for my wife and I. We go there at least once a week, sometimes twice. The food, the pastries, the cold brew coffee, hot coffee and assortment of natural products are all 5 star. Above all, the atmosphere is so welcoming and chill. The staff are all awesome and so nice to talk to. Truly my favorite spot for breakfast or lunch in the greater Portland area.

I tried Rooted Heart Cafe with my Fiancée for the first time. Met the owner, she was super nice and the food & coffee were great.
Was driving by today to go to Dunkin and passed this place, remembered how good and healthy it was and pulled a U-Turn and came here. Met different staff from last time but they were equally as hospitable as the owners and I had a great experience and a better, healthier alternative.

The food is amazing. My 13 and 16 year old love it also. The drinks are so warming and delicious. The best quality ingredients. Get the Chia Bliss Balls. You won’t be disappointed. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. They have some great products and loose herbs. We are so happy with the products we have purchased. We have been 2 weeks in a row so far! Highly recommend!

An absolutely lovely little gem in Buxton! I love how a large portion of the ingredients are locally grown or sourced. Very unique offerings on a cozy space.

Due to my work I spend a lot of time in different towns trying to find the best lunch spots with good food made with care. In all my travels throughout the Maine coast I have maybe one or two spots that I miss when I’m not working in the area. From my first visit I knew this cafe would be among them. The ambience, the community feel and the food. I’m going to miss them when I’m not in town and go as many times as I can before I head off to my next adventure!
