Hawk's Nest Lodge - West Forks

Finding a lunch spot as we traveled from Quebec City back to mid-coast Maine on a weekday in February was not easy. Many restaurants are closed at this time but luckily The Hawks Nest Lodge was open the day we were passing through. We were the only patrons at lunch. Welcomed by several friendly staff and we decided to sit at the bar for lunch. A beautiful pine bar with rustic pine bar seats. The ambiance was very good and very welcoming. Really personable bartender talked with us about the area. Loved the menu of some classics and a lamb burger! Had to get the lamb and glad I did. Delicious. Made with lamb and feta cheese it was served in a burger bun. We upgraded to the French fries, glad we did as they were hot and had a perfect crisp. Really easy parking and good, clean restrooms. A wonderful stop!

Excellent food every time I've been there easy access by ATVs Trail, friendly staff. Great location for any outdoor activities

Came here in the morning for a iced coffee and a little treat and had a lovely time. Barista Sierra was super kind and personable, not to mention made a delicious latte with real caramel! there's a variety of breakfast pastries and cakes to try as well that all look amazing. there's plenty of seating right on the river and cozy inside as well!

Another great Yelp find while traveling to Canada via US 201. We stopped for lunch at this quint lodge restaurant across from a river on US 201. Seated outside by ou request. Our waiter Mike was very gracious patient. My husband cousin's husband had the burgers fries while my cousin I had the chicken salad. Delicious, fresh plentiful. A must stop.

First- this is a gorgeous place and setting. If you can go at a time when you can sit outside, do it! The service was friendly and attentive although the overall process had a slow pace to it. My husband got the Spring pea salad- it was delicious! Everything tasted fresh and crisp. I got the apple, Brie, and turkey sandwich with salad as the side. The sandwich was delicious, it had lots of turkey. I would add more apple for better balance but it was still good as it was. If we are in the area I would definitely stop in again!
