We had a wonderful overnight stay at the Inn. Great food, great cocktails, great staff, great room and a very comfy bed! We’ll definitely be returning.

Note that the famed lobster pot pie is no longer on the menu following a change of management. Pity it is still so prominently featured in photos with few more recent photos posted by the new owners. Five star review so as not to downgrade what is on the menu as we didn’t end up eating here.

Food was great. Betty Ann was an A+ server and seriously went above and beyond. (Ran out TWICE first when we forgot a jacket and again when we forgot our to-go bag)! Complementary wine tasting made the night.

We ate dinner at Academe on a recent Friday nite during a weekend escape and it was fantastic. Great ambiance. The room was wonderful. The staff was better. And the food. My filet was perfectly cooked and as good a meal as I’ve had in a while. I definitely felt some FOMO as it seemed like every other person in the room ordered the lobster pot pie. We will have to come back to try it. Recommended.

The refinished bar and dining room look amazing; bright and chic. The menu has been changed up a bit, now more mouthwatering decisions to make. Everything was delicious and our server and bartender were were a lot of fun. Already planning to go back!

Brian and Shanna are amazing chefs. Everything they cook is like a hug in your mouth. They catered our wedding 16 years ago, and just the other day, one of our friends said … I just remember how good the food was at your reception. Be sure to order your burger LoB, a little of both fries and rings. Yum!

Wonderful! We stayed at the Inn while visiting Maine and dined here mainly for convenience. What a wonderful surprise. The service was excellent, and every dish we tried was wonderfully prepared and delicious!! That you!

My Go-To restaurant in downtown Kennebunk. We lived in Kennebunk for 15 years. When we moved away in 2014, Academe’s food was one of the things I missed most. As a lobster lover, I like to start with the Lobster White Pizza, followed by the Lobster Lo Mein. (Hope I spelled that right!) Then, we’ll cap things off with Academe’s Lobster Pot Pie. If it seems like a lot of food, it’s because my husband and I share.
