As warm weather comes closer, so do the opportunities to get outside and enjoy the views. And, all these trees budding in Maine have us dreaming about the warmer days ahead. Days when digging into our fresh seafood outside with the wind blowing through our hair isn’t just a winter wish, but an actual reality. The best place to do that is on an outdoor roof or patio. On one of those first nice days, (the real ones, not the fake ones that nature cruelly ripped away from us recently) we recommend heading to this awesome outdoor spot. The roof is more of a deck, but that doesn’t mean it’s any less scenic.

Cockeyed Gull is located just a few miles from Portland...across Casco Bay!

After disembarking the ferry to the island, you'll walk towards the main road and make a left - a few feet down and you're there!
