Dock Square Coffee House

The good: The location has a great vibe. My companion ordered an almond croissant, and it looked quite tasty. The bad: They also tried a cortado with almond milk, and after just one sip, I understood why they were tempted to discard it. The espresso drinks require improvement. I'm not sure if it was the temperature, brewing time, grind size, or quality of the beans, but their espresso-making skills definitely need refinement. The bitterness in the drink was excessive, which might sound overly critical, but it was quite off-putting.

The atmosphere is delightful, featuring juicy local apples that come highly recommended, and the decor is quite unique. The restaurant is positioned right by the water, with pleasant seating options near the windows. I also enjoyed the mocha, which was excellent. Just a small suggestion: it would be great if the ceiling fan could be cleaned!

I visited this charming little cafe at 10 AM on a Tuesday. I had to wait in line for a short while, but my experience quickly took a downturn due to the staff's unfriendly attitude. Although I enjoy coffee, I'm usually more of a mainstream shop person and not very familiar with specialty drinks. When I tried to place my order, I was rudely corrected several times about the name of the drink I wanted. By the time I finished my order, I felt like I was a burden to the cashier the entire time. The lemon poppy muffin was...

Quick, nice service. Good selection of various coffees. Great place to stop by and grab a drink and walk around KBP. Sit on a bench or walk to the nearby beach and chat.

I always stop here when visiting Kennebunkport. Great local spot with all the coffee shop staples. In addition to beverages, they carry a variety of pastries. Perfectly situated location right in the middle of the Port.
