Our Story

Welcome!

The Bandaloop Story

When we opened Bandaloop in 2004, we wanted to offer something a little different than other restaurants: global flavors, local produce and a steadfast commitment to green practices. Over the past years, we haven’t just built a business; we became part of the community.

While we’ve bid adieu to our beloved Kennebunkport home, the new Bandaloop—located just down the road in Arundel—provides the perfect stage to keep our story going.

We think you’ll love the new space—even if it isn’t exactly “new.” Built in the 1700s, our three-story barn at 1200 Portland Road (Route 1) is quintessential New England—the kind of place that draws you in and never lets go.

We’re now offering three tiers of service: in the dining room, at the counter and our new-and-improved takeout option. Our new upstairs space is perfect for large gatherings and special events. We have on-site parking, outdoor seating when the weather allows (always a crapshoot in Maine!) and plenty of options to please any palate. Best of all, we’re open year-round, with menus that reflect our love of seasonal eating.

Bandaloop Restaurant Story

While the layout and service have changed, we’ll never compromise on who we are or what we believe. We’re still committed to using organic, locally sourced ingredients. Our menus will always be dynamic and delicious, with options for meat eaters and vegetarians alike. Going green (and staying that way) is in our blood. And the laid-back vibe that made our Kennebunkport restaurant so special—a vibe that you helped create—will always be how we roll. Here’s to new beginnings, great food and wonderful company, and a big old barn everyone can enjoy.

SAY YUMMM

“This place was a dream! Superb seasonal cocktails, a perfect salad, dreamy appetizer, and dynamic vegan mains. I finished it off with a vegan dessert and coffee. Everything was great. Really great. We went back the next night to do it all over again—it was that good.”
