February: Is there any better month for a romantic escape to the Maine MidCoast?
Sure, that high-profile sweethearts’ holiday looms midway through, demanding something special to celebrate someone special. But it’s not only the annual tradition of Valentine’s Day: This time of year, in the home stretch of winter, the MidCoast remains wonderfully tranquil, wrapped in seasonal quiet and tailor-made for hiding away and cozying up with your main squeeze.
Part of that hiding away and cozying up — especially when you choose The Craignair Inn by the Sea in Spruce Head as your romantic MidCoast accommodations — ought to be savoring a thoughtfully made gourmet meal together, don’t you think? And that’s just what awaits you at our Causeway Restaurant, the ideal H.Q. for a hand-in-hand Maine foodie getaway on one of the swooniest stretches of Maine’s rockbound seashore…
Our year-round dining destination, The Causeway Restaurant, offers the perfect spot for delicious date-night indulgences and romantic vibes any time of year. Fresh, locally sourced ingredients (representing our firm partnerships with area farmers, fishers, and other purveyors) and creative new spins on classic coastal cuisine provide the foundation for The Causeway’s magic.
And then there are the lovely views from the main dining room out to the waterfront, and the works by local artists — and the crackling fireplace — that enhance a meal in the Craignair Gallery dining space. The ambiance (not to mention the pitch-perfect and warm-hearted service) also helps set The Causeway Restaurant at our historic seaside inn apart.
The Causeway’s current menu comes stacked with fine dishes over which to gaze into one another’s eyes: from Lobster Bisque, Roasted Heirloom Carrots, and Local Aphrodite Oysters to the Petit Filet Duo, Mushroom Bolognese, and Frenched Lamb Steak.
And on the evening of Valentine’s Day itself, February 14th, The Causeway is offering an extra-special Valentine’s Day dinner: all the more reason to declare a foodie vacation at The Craignair Inn this month!
The upcoming (and unmissable) Valentine’s Day menu, by the way, is just one example of the holiday dinners that our on-site restaurant regularly presents.
Hot on the heels of The Causeway’s Valentine’s Day dinner is the next offering in the restaurant’s Winter Passport Series: Mardi Gras in Maine, set for Thursday, February 15th.
In line with the Winter Passport Series approach of themed pairing dinners spotlighting partnerships between our Causeway culinary team and local businesses, this Mardi Gras feast will delight diners with festive dishes as well as cocktails made with Maine-crafted spirits.
So, as it happens, The Causeway isn’t only among the MidCoast restaurants with Valentine’s Day specials this month: We’ve also got an honest-to-goodness Mardi Gras smorgasbord on tap! We modestly propose you won’t find a better home base for a Maine foodie getaway than The Craignair Inn by the Sea and The Causeway.
Come celebrate Valentine’s Day in Maine, and look no further than The Craignair Inn by the Sea when it comes to cozy, decked-out accommodations for two! Book your Valentine’s Day dinner at our waterfront Causeway Restaurant today.
