"Congdon’s is a Southern Maine institution, which means it’s more than worth a lightning-fast detour off Route 1. You’ll likely see a line out the door when you pull into the parking lot, but thankfully, it moves pretty quick, so you can enjoy your doughnuts and coffee on the road or in their outdoor seating area. While their maple-raised donuts are unmatched, get at least a half dozen so you can try their airy raised, filled, or cake varieties with different fillings, frostings, and sprinkles. If you stop by after the shop closes for the day, they convert the large lot into a food truck park with rotating vendors, a beer garden, live music, and car shows. " - anne cruz
