Restaurants in Camden, Maine and Nearby

You probably won’t complain about a lack of food options.  A  5 – 10 minute walk will get you to most Camden restaurants; only the restaurants on the other side of the harbor are a bit farther away, about a mile each. Rockport and Rockport Harbor restaurants are just a five minute drive down the road, and Rockland, a real “foodie” town, is only 15 minutes South. You could also take Route 1 North to Lincolnville and Lincolnville Beach, or continue on to Belfast,  for more events, sea views, shops, and restaurants.
