With prices so high, where are the best bang-for-your-buck restaurants in Maine?

It's a great question, and we all have our little secret ones. Mine might not always be the cheapest, but I don't necessarily think that's what 'bang for your buck' means. Of course, it means getting a great deal on a great meal, but so much more goes into dining out.

There's atmosphere. It's hard to beat some of the diners in Maine for that. And when you know what you are doing in the kitchen, it's gonna make the list like Miss Brunswick Diner.

They've got the value, atmosphere, and the food down. It's hard to get a good deal these days. EVERYTHING is so expensive. I know you've experienced that while eating out.

Maybe you know that going in, so you don't mind dropping some serious money for a meal. But you DO mind if you don't think it was worth the money. Take, for instance, the Eagle's Nest in Brewer. Their lobster roll with fries is over 30 dollars (still not that bad) - most people say it's not only worth it, but it's the best lobster roll in Maine!

So keeping in mind that it isn't always the cheapest, here are 25 of the best-valued places considering everything. Do you have a secret place that you know you can always rely on? Don't keep it all to yourself, share! My appetite alone could keep most of these in business for a good decade.
