A restaurant on a hill with expansive lake views, Blair Hill Inn is an oasis for those seeking a memorable dining experience. Here you will find delicious foods steeped in the culture and bounty of Maine's farms and forests with exceptional service and staggering vistas. Blair Hill Inn is a place where the joy of food, drink and ambience are savored and celebrated.
Our desire is to share the culture, traditions and foods of Northern Maine. We don't just source our ingredients locally, we go the extra mile and design each weekly menu to reflect the spirit and seasons of Maine. Our Executive Chef Michael MacDonnell, a native Mainer himself, creates dishes with exciting flavors, seasonal to that moment in time. We partner closely with area farmers, foragers and purveyors to supplement our own, on-property green house and gardens. The 21-acres of fields and woodlands surrounding the inn provide an abundance of wild ingredients as well.
Combine all this with Chef McDonnell's expertise in Thai cuisine (he married into a Thai family) and to say your palette wiil be pleased is an understatement.
