Thank you to Shade at Higgins Beach Inn for hosting us and sharing complimentary dishes. As always all thoughts and opinions shared are 100% my own.

Looking for a coastal treat? Sister to the Black Point Inn, Shade at Higgins Beach Inn is a perfect spot to eat. We were lucky enough to stumble upon it. The spacious deck was bright and beachy. Not to mention the staff was very accommodating and attentive.

Bonus: from the Higgins Beach Inn you can walk right down to the beach.

Izzy really enjoyed the outdoor seating and so did we.

The cocktails were on point! Kudos to the bartender and delicious cocktail menu.

Inside there is a bar and indoor seating section. The accent color red just pops and give a fun and bright feel to the space. The bar was packed and everyone here really seemed to be enjoying the atmosphere, food and drinks.

Alright, on to the food!

The appetizers were super tasty! They had awesome seafood apps to chose from. Which is what you want when you come to Maine, right?

The entrees were beautifully plated and delicious.

This giant homemade ice-cream sandwich was shared between everyone at the table. My sweet toddler Izzy was pretty much in heaven with this dessert.

So if you are planning a trip to Maine check out the Higgins Beach Inn and their gorgeous restaurant Shade. You don’t want to miss this hidden gem.
