What a cute little adventure!! Splendid morning spent sipping a honey latte, and enjoying one of the best biscuit breakfast sandwiches I've had in a while !! Be kind and wait patiently, the small crew is working hard to make your visit memorable. The line waned and flowed while we enjoyed our treats, if it feels busy one moment give it some time and come back !

I was so excited to finally get the chance to check this place out! It had been on my list ever since I heard it was opening. We got there first thing in the morning and it was busy! The breakfast sandwich was good and my coffee (tiramisu latte) was so delicious. Staff was super friendly. I can wait to get another chance to visit.

This place is absolutely magical! The coffee I got there was outstanding. What really blew me away was the attention to detail in the decorations. I highly recommend this cafe, especially if you're a Lord of the Rings fan!

I loved this place. I live in Anaheim CA, but grew up in Brunswick. I saw that this place was opening and hoped it would open by my next visit. I was pleased to see it open finally, so I checked it out! The vibes and atmosphere were fantastic. Service was a bit slow, but that is definitely to be expected with a softer launch. It takes time to find the groove and I do not fault them for that. They were very kind in acknowledging the slower service for some food items and offered my party free lemonades to compensate which is really nice of them. Despite service being slower, the food was fantastic! Usually themed bars or cafes are all atmosphere and no flavor, but the food was actually incredibly good. Overall, I loved this place and can't wait to be there and back again on my next visit to Maine.

We’ve been wanting to go here since they opened and we were so glad to finally go. It’s a solid 4.5/5 with small critiques understanding they’ve just opened. Drinks: Great. Not overly sweet, plenty of espresso (other reviews said they couldn’t taste any but you guys must regularly drink gas station burnt coffee). The presentation was a literal 10/10. The flavors were solid but nothing earth shattering. We tried the honey and the tiramisu. Food: Solid. The food is great if you enjoy more traditional British dry foods. The short cake was crumbly and dense and the breakfast sandwich was delicious but also KFC level dry on the biscuits. One person in our group took off the top biscuit because it was simply too much bread to innards ratios. I however, loved all of it. May be an acquired taste though. 4/5 Service: The line was slow to be honest, but the cashier was super kind and patient with us and the actual service of the food was extremely quick which was lovely. 5/5 Atmosphere: Absolutely adorable if you’re a LOTR fan. Comfortable and ample seating. However, no AC made it stuffy. Also, the line running through the center of the room really makes it hard to walk through and get to things. Pretty awkward layout. Finally, we needed utensils, but they were out of forks, only knives and spoons available. A little more attention to these small details would be nice. 3/5 Tl;dr good drinks, good food, great for media content or influencers, could use some minor fixes on the actual set up Parking:

We came for the shire vibes, stayed for the lattes and food. My group ordered a honeycomb latte and a tiramisu latte, and we each got a breakfast sandwich. We also got a Lembas Bread for the table. For me, the bread was quite dry and needed to be ingested with a drink. But the others at my table thought that it was perfect! The sandwiches were tasty! I did feel like there was too much bread but then again I'm not a huge bread person. My friend happily finished the top bread of my sandwich! I would definitely recommend checking this place out! The stuff was so kind
