Think of Maine and you might imagine lobster rolls, fried clams and buckets of mussels. And while all of those delectable seafood visions might be accurate, it’s important to remember that Maine plays host to all sorts of awesome food! When you’re stuffed to the gills (see what we did there?) with fish and need something different, try a good ol’ fashioned burger at this totally old-school Maine spot!

Falmouth is a pretty little town near Portland, with a wonderful river and lovely homes.

But, let’s talk about what’s really important: BURGERS.

Falmouth is home to Harmon’s Lunch, the small spot with a simple menu that’s big on taste.

Inside you’ll find just a few tables with simple decor.

Milk bottles lining the wall is pretty much it, folks.

But, really you don’t need much in the way of decoration when you churn out a simple (but perfect!) menu of burgers, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, grilled cheese, onion rings and fries.

You’ve got the choice of a single or a double when it comes to burgers.

Pro Tip: Always the double.

Take your food, head outside and revel in Maine’s most perfect burger.

A double cheeseburger, onion rings and a drink will set you back UNDER $10, which is pretty much impossible to say of any meal in Portland.
