About

At The Tiller, taste an ever-evolving variety of seasonal flavors during brunch and dinner. Our ingredients focus on local purveyors and include farm-fresh local produce, line-caught fish, farm-raised meats, and homemade recipes – both newly imagined and passed down for generations. Respectful preparations showcase native ingredients at their peak and pair perfectly with our local beer list, international wine selections and hand-crafted cocktail menu.

Perched dramatically atop Bald Head Cliff, each table at The Tiller Restaurant offers an immersive ‘coastal Maine’ experience. Seemingly suspended above the crashing waves, guests enjoy uninterrupted views of the infinite horizon from sunrise to sunset. The thoughtfully crafted interior celebrates our seafaring heritage bespoke with elements such as a ceiling that echoes the structure of a ship’s hull. The restaurant’s location, coupled with inspired design, menus crafted with care, and genuine hospitality, result in a most pleasing and unforgettable dining experience.

In summer months, enjoy The Tiller menu on The Terrace – our breathtaking, open air, cliffside dining experience.
