Maine Restaurant Week Culinary Events

Here's what's cooking for 2025! Maine Restaurant Week Special Culinary Events

─── ✦ ───

CRAVE!

March 1 -12 - Various Locations

CRAVE is a special feature of Maine Restaurant Week that spotlights coffee-inspired creations at participating locations across Maine. From coffee-infused drinks to sweet and savory treats, each CRAVE item is crafted using Coffee By Design coffee.

Read all about Crave here -- including previewing the offerings!

Pro Tip: CRAVE items are available daily during MRW, but only while supplies last — so it’s always smart to call the participating location ahead to check if your must-try item is still available (and ask them to hold one for you!). Find the list of CRAVE locations here. 

Follow along here and on our Instagram or Facebook for restaurant updates and insider tips, and get ready to CRAVE!
