Kingfield Woodsman

Best breakfast menu, food quality and value in Kingfield, Carrsbassett Valley and Sugarloaf. Nice log cabin atmosphere with the all new log tables!

Ive been here more times then i can remember since the time i was a young boy… its my favorite comfort food and I miss it constantly. The pancakes are amazing the bacons always done right. and it always smells good inside… Had to write a review just because i MISS this place

Stopped while on the road. Got the lobstah roll and my boyfriend got the clam chowder. Apparently we got there a few minutes before closing but no one said anything about that and we did not feel rushed at all. Really good food at great rates!

Stopped here for some lunch while out on the snowmobiles. It’s easy to get to from the trails. The sign out front read «Under New Management» which judging by the previous reviews is a good thing. The staff was friendly. The food was good. The prices were low. I had a steak sandwich, my girlfriend had a turkey club. Both we’re well worth the price. Overall a good experience. I’d definitely go back.

I ordered an omelette and it was delicious. It appeared that most people enjoyed the food, despite the waiting time. The pancakes are made in bulk, making the first pancake orders to take an absurd amount of time. We stopped in for a quick breakfast before hitting the road and we spent nearly an hour there, due to the wait. The other reviews which depict the head cook and owner as being rude, obnoxious, unwelcoming and simply a distraction to customers trying to enjoy a meal is correct. While waiting, the owner stated to one of her employs (in reference to not putting whip cream on pancakes even tho it was requested), «it’s a pain in the ass, if they send it back then throw it at them»… This is obviously ridiculous and your business and their success is not deserved. If in the area and hungry, just go across the street for some good «road food».

We stopped here en route to Sugarloaf. The Orange Cat Café was not open (shame on them for opening «8-​ish» on Sunday’s prime ski season!) so we stopped here hoping for a traditional breakfast. You queue to order, pick up your food, and clean your table when finished. I asked if the hash was homemade and the sullen high school girl didn’t know how to respond. I asked if it came in a can and she stared blankly. The cook/​owner (?) standing at a the greasy grill was harshly reprimanding her for not writing the orders correctly, so she may have been overwhelmed. I decided to be safe and ordered the granola and yogurt. The wall menu describing the granola made it seem homemade. $ 4.75 for the dish. My partner ordered two eggs, home fries, bacon and substituted homemade wheat bread for an extra $ 1. The wall menu stated that his dish came with «one free refill» on the coffee. The coffee station is located right in the middle of the line waiting to order, which makes it difficult to access. The overall vibe behind the counter/​kitchen area was negative. No happy good mornings or even a thank you or smile. When our name was called to pick up the food I was astonished to see that there was less than a cup of granola in the bowl. I asked for the yogurt and the cook snapped «it’s underneath». So that meant even less granola than appeared. It was ok though, because the granola was do stale I couldn’t finish the measly portion anyway. My partner’s plate was nondescript. The home fries were soggy and raw. They were boiled perhaps and then thrown on the grill but just not even cooked! Bacon badly overdone. The best thing was the toast. It wasn’t great, but at least good. The worst thing about this place is the coffee. I don’t think I’ve ever had worse. Folger’s Instant would have been better. Between the bad food and the bad vibe, there is no clearly no love in what the owner and staff produce or prepare for paying patrons. Do not spend your time or money here!

A good spot to pull in for a diner breakfast. From the outside the building may look a little different from your typical diner but that’s what you have here. It’s good for a nice basic breakfast.

Amazing breakfast of epic portions. This place is awesome. I’ve been going here since I was a young kid. Happy to see this place still around.

I will never go to this establishment again. Yes the food is decent, the parking is ok, but the owner behind the counter is rude and offensive. The LAST time I was there, I was embarrassed by the treatment given to some folks here from NJ. They had 3 kids and 2 dads, they sat next to me and asked if this was normal, I had to say, «No, sometimes it is worse.» So now I go to the Orange Cat, just south of this place on the right, creative food which is really yummy and great service.

Being only one of 2 places that was open for breakfast within a 30 minute drive of Sugarloaf in the summer I landed here.
Now my friend and I who stopped in were very very hungry after completing over 30 miles of hiking in 2 days and we wanted to go nuts. So we both decided to order 2 full breakfasts. The lady behind the counter actually got mad at us and we had to fight with her to get the order. So service is a bit odd here, but the food was great the portions huge and the prices ludicrously low.
My complaints are the «freedom toast» thing they have going on & the totally cheap ass fake maple syrup. They definitely did not welcome French speakers and were down right rude to a guy who walked in wearing a bike shirt with the Quebec flag on it. I also was a little taken a back by the fact that it looked like a bomb full or US flags had gone off in the joint although considering it was 4^th of July weekend I’m hoping it was not part of the normal décor.

Q: How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
A: A Woodchuck could (and does) chuck around 35 cubic feet of dirt in the course of digging a burrow. Therefore, if a woodchuck could chuck wood, he would chuck an amount equivalent to the weight of the dirt, or 700 pounds.
Considering the little fella is only about 8 pounds himself that’s a lot of hungry work. So for that reason and many other good other reasons, I’m pointing him and you to The Woodsman in Kingfield, Maine — the home of the best breakfasts I’ve had in my life.
It’s pretty much just a breakfast joint — serving eggs, home fries, bacon, sausages, omelettes, pancakes, waffles and all you’d associate with a real hearty start to the day. Oh, and Freedom toast too (they don’t tolerate French cheese-​eating surrender monkeys up here). It’s in a real log cabin, decorated with timber industry trinkets (and a framed photo of Queen Elizabeth II), staffed by women who know how to get that blueberry pancake just right and filled with the kind of clientele who wear a lumberjack-​shirt over a pouncing tiger T-​shirt. RowwR!
If you’re here in the morning for a coffee and pancake before your day woodcutting, skiing or hiking the mountains you’re gonna leave swelled like a blimp as the choices are too good to miss and too cheap not to get as many as possible. 2 blueberry pancakes, bacon, sausage, 2 fried eggs and a waffle?
Yes — FORGET LUNCH (and maybe dinner too).
