The Maine Sunday Telegram has published a review of The Well in Cape Elizabeth.
The setting is special and the food is a locavore’s delight, almost all of it sourced from Jordan’s Farm or nearby. This freshly harvested flavor translates to splendid entrees and sides that are prepared simply to let the ingredients shine, which they do.

Today’s Press Herald has published a review of the Middle Street Cafe,
I had a similar sandwich at Mom’s Cafe for about a buck more, but with its dark green lettuce and thick-cut bacon cooked fresh on the premises, it was worth that extra dollar. The Middle Street Cafe version of a turkey club was fine as sandwiches go; it just didn’t wow me. And there’s certainly no law that says every sandwich should be a religious experience. Sometimes, a sandwich is just a sandwich.
