96 Market featuring The Doghouse Kitchen
New in 2026: a “fetch-and-go” drive-thru with smash burgers, breakfast sandwiches, pizza, and eight flavors of ice cream.
Al's Dairy Freeze
The riverside soft-serve and burger stand that makes Fort Kent summers official. Window service; summer hours only.
China Garden & 47 North Bistro
Fort Kent's Chinese favorite and the newer bistro on the north side.
First Mile Brewing Company
Route 1’s first mile gets its own brewery — a converted grain warehouse pouring small-batch beer, now with a taproom pizza joint to go with it.
Red Devil Roast Coffee Company
Small-batch roastery and coffee bar roasting beans from Central America, Africa, and Indonesia — owner Alan Susee even delivers in a coffee-themed former sheriff’s cruiser.
Rock's Family Diner
The dependable University-side diner for big breakfasts and comfort lunches near the UMFK campus.
The Swamp Buck Restaurant & Lounge
Casual plates and a full bar in a relaxed St. John Valley setting — and famously open when everything else in the county isn’t. Texas Smokehouse burger, popcorn shrimp, deep-fried apple pie.
Beyond Fort Kent, the full County dining guide covers the whole County.
