2 Best Restaurants in Blue Hill Peninsula, Maine

This place offers amazing (and equitably sourced) coffee and invites you to take a minute to have a conversation while you wait for your slow-pour brew to flow through a colorful, custom-built wooden drip bar. Grab a pastry supplied by a variety of local bakers---if there are any left when you arrive. 

Tinder Hearth is well known in these part for its amazing pastries and wood-oven-baked breads, but it also makes pizza that's delicious enough to plan your whole week around—a must given that you have to reserve your pie days in advance. It's worth the bother, though, as the crust is thin but chewy, and the toppings are a mix of the classic and the inventive. Other options on the menu include local beer, good wine, oysters, and ice cream.
