Cafe

Wholesome, Fresh Local Food

Grab-and-Go Lunches, Coffee Bar, Bakery Items, and More

Whether you were a regular at our former cafe or have been, we invite you to enjoy our beautiful new gathering space and delicious and wide selection of prepared food items!

Most of what we offer in the Cafe are “​​Co-op Made” products, proudly prepared from scratch with whole ingredients right here at our Co-op in Belfast, Maine.

We also feature grab-and-go dishes from local vendors such as Blue Hill’s Panda Kitchen and Little Lad’s in Corinth.

Gather at the Co-op Cafe for coffee, breakfast, or lunch!

What’s New
  • We’ve improved the seating area so that it’s filled with natural light and comfortable, colorful new furniture
  • More space to sit and study, read, work or catch up with friends and neighbors
  • A new outdoor patio area to sit and relax on nice days
  • A spacious new coffee bar so you can get your java fix
What’s Different
  • To help us efficiently serve more good food to more people, we are not currently offering a made-to-order menu
  • We no longer take call-ahead orders for prepared items, but swing by to choose from yummy and diverse grab-and-go options to take with you or sit and eat in our cafe!
