"My wife and I were attracted to Baston River in Kennebunk Maine because of their great Halloween decorations both outside and inside the restaurant. Check out the pictures and wonderfully gruesome sense of humor. The vibe inside the house/restaurant was fun too with black walls and incredible decor. The Philly French dip sandwich and the burger we ordered were average - not bad but not great either. The burger wasn’t juicy and it was thin. The French dip was a little dry. The truffle fries were pretty good. I’d come here again for the vibe. The people were really nice too. Love their sense of humor, just wish the food was a little higher quality. It was a pretty good value though as our bill was only $50 including a 20% tip!"

"We tried the lobster roll with the homemade chips and the lobster Mac and cheese. Both were excellent, very nice flavours, portions were generous and the prices were fair. Service was very helpful as well. The deck has a very nice view."

"This was an amazing experience. Upstairs there was board games a ton of great stuff. I went hear with my family for a nice meal it had a great selection of meals for everyone. I have several allergies and i told my waiter who was awesome. She assisted me told me all the ingredients and made sure there were no cross contamination. She was amazing she assisted all of us and made sure everything was great for us. The views here are great and theres a good amount of seating. It felt a lil crowded but not a bother. The food wasn’t that bad in price. It was delicious. Probably the best burger and fries I’ve had in awhile! Id you have the money and time definitely check this place out. The only thing is that the tables didn’t come with coasters. The table was kind of dirty."

"My husband and I visited Batson River twice during our recent visit to Kennebunkport. We were seated promptly during both visits. During our first visit we sat upstairs on the deck and during our second visit we sat downstairs under the covered portion of the patio. Service was friendly and efficient during both visits. We love the atmosphere and the views you can enjoy here. We only had drinks, which were great, but the food looked equally delicious! We will definitely return!"

"Very cute and quaint place! The duck fat cornbread was surprisingly good—and this comes from someone who has never liked cornbread. It’s sweet and moist—delish! The clam chowder was pretty good too, and the mussels were huge in comparison to what we’ve normally had! I really recommend this place if you’re in the area. FYI, on Chase Hill road, all the way at the end to the left, there is designated parking for this restaurant—just look for the signs!"
