So Long, Winter and Thanks for the Snow: Grammy's, River driver's & Dysart's

I’ve been hitting a lot of restaurants in Northern Maine recently. Here’s 3 that have been stand-outs to me, I’m working on Full reviews for all three of them. But I can tell you right now, if you haven’t been to them, you should check them out. Here’s a bit of a teaser for the upcoming Full reviews:

1. Grammy's Country Inn Located in Linneus, Me. Grammy’s is a Legend in the region. Their 11k Facebook likes is evidence of the appeal of this place. I’m sure they benefit from the snow, but as a restaurant they would be success anywhere. People like to eat, some people like to eat alot. Bring your appetite and your own take-out bag because you’re going to need it.  
   
2. River Driver's Restaurant & Pub @ the base of Mt. Katahdin, the road in was a bit of challenge but we made it with a regular car. Lots of Snowmobiles there. The atmosphere was cool and kind of ski-lodge-like. The views of the mountain are fantastic.
   
3. Dysart's Travel Stop Is on West Broadway in the Lincoln. This was actually biggest surprise of the 3. You can read some of the details in my Pre-review on Google Maps by clicking on their name. Not many Snowmobilers drive their sleds here (one would imagine), but it’s a Travel Stop, I’m sure many stop en route. The food is excellent.  
   

Not surprisingly, at least 2 of these places really depend on the Snow Sledding traffic for much of their business. So it’s kind of fitting, here on the 1st day of spring to acknowledge how important that a “good” winter is for some area businesses. And while I hope next year is just as “good”, snowfall wise, I plan on spending next winter someplace much warmer (of course, I say that every year!)
