Perfect lunch spot on a cold winter day in Maine! Creative menu with fresh ingredients and plenty of vegetarian options. Homemade bread, delicious desserts, and a beautiful view any time of year. Friendly staff and free street parking.

Sara, a home run; you deserve 6 stars! You made our day drive in the country one to remember…and repeat! As I said NYC has nothing on you! French toast with fresh whipped cream couldn’t be better as well as the bagel with lox. A gem in the middle of nowhere ✨️ .

A loverly place with faboulous bread, short-bread and sheet-cake variations as well as wonderful breakfast options. Right at a small lake. We enjoyed both, indoor and outdoor option. A big thank you to everyone at Scapes Café, we really enjoyed this morning during our 2-weeks trip to Maine. Petra & Stefan from Germany.

SOOOOOO GOOD! Our FAVORITE EATERY while on our 15-day Maine trip as we visited 14 of the 16 counties. Closed Mon & Tues, it’s open 7 AM to 3 PM. This quaint, clean, comfortable eatery is packed with friendly patrons & staff, delicious entrees, & delectable desserts! The photo of my Pulled Pork Egg Sandwich ($16) unfortunately blurred, but it was EXCELLENT– just perfect. The delicious, fresh Breakfast Sandwich is pictured. Home fries were not pan fried, but still worthy. Check out the BREAKFAST & LUNCH MENU PICS. The pastries (SEE PIC) were EXCELLENT. We brought many back to share w/ family– the Lemon Bars were the BEST ever eaten! And the Almond Joy Scone was INCREDIBLE. The Date Bars, Raspberry Bars, Cranberry Bars, and Chocolate Birdseed Cookies were very good as well. JUST LOOK AT THE DESSERT CASE! Prices on the desserts, compared to what they would be in Florida, were quite good. No need to buy a bottle of water — check out the photo of the wall tap; we were provided very good, cold drinking water @ no cost. There’s a fridge in the dining room that offers a variety of soups for purchase. The owner is pictured wearing orange; she was busy preparing more squares. A regular patron (who lives nearby the cafe) said the owner took an OK eatery and has made it into a very popular & worthy place due to the variety & quality of its food offerings. She uses local vendors when possible, as well as the highest quality ingredients. We could definitely taste the difference! Will stop in again the next time we visit Maine…

Best food in Maine! I’ve come here so many times anything on the menu is amazing. Today I got garden omelette with sourdough it was amazing, and their donuts .

Quaint, rustic, a lot of character! Family friendly, high morale behind the counter. Presentation of the bakery case is artistic and tasteful. Beautiful natural lighting throughout. The food and drinks were made well and with care. The price of the goods they provide match the quality. Definitely worth every cent. Try it out!

I’ve always enjoyed The Old Cafe/Scapes as a quite local eatery in a great location. But these days, they’re quietly becoming one of, if not the best, food options in central ME. Staff are always friendly (shoutout Sarah and Rose). Always excited for the specials (Moroccan stew in the middle of winter? Yes please). Really helping catalyze a cute and transformed main street in town.
I’m always hesitant to write a review about places like this because I don’t want it to blow up and change, but alas, it’s just too good.

Incredible atmosphere, hidden gem in downtown Mount Vernon. Great place to go for a high quality breakfast. They also baked my wife a specialized birthday cake on short notice.
Thank you!

Such friendly service and welcoming atmosphere. Food is top notch– super fresh and delicious. And the Speckled Ax coffee is sooo tasty. The space also offers great views of the lake and outdoor seating. It’s the best!
