The food and dining scene in LA reflects the long history and diverse cultures of the area. Start your day with a wood-fired sourdough bagel from Forage Market, named “America’s Best Bagel” by Saveur magazine. Just a block away you can visit Heritage Restaurant, an African restaurant that serves up traditional dishes such as sambusa, a meat-filled pastry with African spices sure to make your mouth water.

No trip to the area is complete without a red hot dog from Simone’s, the oldest hotdog stand in Maine. A local diner known for its yummy food and warm, family-run atmosphere, Simone’s has been a required stumping spot on the political trail for any aspiring politician in the state. Interested in nextlevel mixologists making handcrafted cocktails? Stop by Sonder & Dram for one of a kind libations.

Baxter Beer at DaVinci’s Eatery Lewiston’s revamped historic mills and canalside patios house some local favorites. You can grab a bite at The Pub at Baxter Brewing and see where the well-known Stowaway IPA is brewed. DaVinci’s offers up classic Italian dishes in a relaxed atmosphere; enjoy the garlic knots while taking in the many Vespas dotting the decor. Fish Bones is a mainstay in the local dining scene, with a recently expanded canal-side patio and outdoor seating — try the tuna crisps!

Cross the river into Auburn to try delicious Greek fare at 84 Court, where the traditional souvlaki is delicious, and you will leave feeling like you gained new friends.

Cibo Pizza

Auburn also offers weary travelers all things familiar — Buffalo Wild Wings, Longhorn Steakhouse, Chipotle, and Starbucks. If you love handcrafted food with local flair, enjoy a burger and beer on Gritty’s patio overlooking the Falls, or stop by Cibo Pizza for a handcrafted pizza with delicious vegan options and let Corwin steer you to the best pies.
