The Strand Cafe
1 Ocean Ave, Kittery, ME
Crema's Take
“Tucked into Kittery, this espresso-focused café has earned a devoted following for crafting some of the region's most impressive specialty drinks—the Busy Bee Latte is a standout that keeps visitors coming back. Beyond the exceptional coffee, you'll find a genuinely warm crew of baristas who remember your order after a single visit and pair each cup with fresh donuts delivered daily, creating a quick-grab experience that feels personal and West Coast-inspired despite its Maine location.”

This might be the best coffee/espresso in town. We tried several places while visiting and this one trumped them all! Plus they have fresh donuts delivered daily that were outstanding! No place to sit or hang out inside but that didn't bother us.
This place makes some of the best drinks around. We came here multiple times for much needed pick me ups.
Well worth the stop. I tried their busy bee latte and it was amazing. If I lived locally I would be there all the time.
Absolutely delicious coffee with the most helpful and friendly staff. I swear the barista could not stop smiling, and remembered my order after only one visit, made my day! It's a must stop for a perfect pick me up.
Only place worth getting a decent cup of coffee or a latte in York Beach. Everyone else on short sands is a waste. The staff was super chill and friendly. Reminds me of west coast coffee shops.
