Bev’s Cafe and Market: Cozy Kennebunk Spot for Gourmet Breakfasts & Artisan Sandwiches

My partner and I were in search of a quick pit stop for breakfast, and this place checked every box. Super friendly staff, clean and well decorated. Enjoyed a delicious bacon egg & cheese on a biscuit paired with a cappuccino. The owner/manager was extremely attentive, and even brought out to go food to the table we were sitting at and remembered my name. Perfect pit stop in such a charming town

We love Bev’s! So happy to have this friendly, delicious spot in the neighborhood for coffee, baked goods, salads and tasty sandwiches. We always love the specials, which are creative, fresh, and packed with flavor. The owners (veterans of Zuni Cafe in SF) are always on the floor to say hello and gather feedback. A great new local favorite and a treat if you’re traveling up on Route 1.

Sunday brunch specials were all delicious, hot and very filling. The blueberry waffle was light and airy with just the right amount of sweetness from the maple syrup. The scrambled eggs with gruyere and leeks were soft and gooey. The side salad was vibrant and the perfect accompaniment to cut through the richness of the eggs. Both the London fog and the pumpkin spiced latte were served hot and lightly sweetened. The peanut butter cookie and pumpkin scone were so tasty we went back for a box of pastries to go. So so yummy. The environment was cozy with cute tables and fresh flowers, so you felt like you were dining in a homey cottage. The staff were all friendly and efficient. We'll definitely stop in again the next time we're in town.

First time trying Bev’s Cafe, pretty positive experience. I just grabbed a sandwich, so my first thought was based upon a quick visit. I got the Italian. Very, very good sandwich. Bread to protein ration was spot on. It had mayo and Italian OV dressing. Only issue was portion size to price. Sandwiches were all $16+. I would have been ecstatic with a $12 or $13 price tag. My thought is that they’ll figure things out. Looks like they’ve done a great job handling the bumps with a new opening. Very personalize service experience with a kitchen staff member bringing my takeout to me with a genuine thanks. Give them a try.

I’ve always enjoyed everything I’ve eaten from this quaint little cafe. However, today when I visited it was a vastly different experience. I wanted to order the special of the day breakfast burrito sans the sausage but wanted to add bacon instead. The young lady at the counter said “no I can’t do that I’m sorry, I can take the sausage out but I can’t add bacon.” I asked her “why is that?” Her response? (Looking at me as if I had five heads for asking such a thing) - “ well because I only have two cooks back there and it’s just too much to ask of them because we have people coming in an they’re very busy as is” … I thought that was the strangest thing I’ve ever heard and especially so because I work at a local restaurant & have been in the service industry for many years ; I could not possibly dream up such a ridiculous response. I decided to order the bacon egg and cheese on biscuit. Very yummy. But I really do not understand why I couldn’t simply order what I actually wanted which was the swapping of legitimately ONE ingredient…..

I have always left Bev’s feeling warmed from the inside out. Food + drink is on point. The vibe is always amazing, filled with laughter and community. Decor is so clean and uplifting. Staff are epic and the florals are the icing on the cake. Thank you!!!

The atmosphere is very clean , relaxed , outdoor cafe vibes . Very nice selection of drinks and food .. everything from a light pastry to a nice filling meal ! Staff were very friendly and welcoming . I ordered the breakfast burrito , big enough to share with someone . Packed with delicious cheese , flavorful chorizo and beans , and fluffy eggs . Definitely suggest you order the burrito and give Bevs a try .
