The Burleigh

We were seated in the igloo. The ambiance was festive and the decor was lovely. Our server was accommodating and respectfully friendly. The food is well prepared and quite delicious.
The French Onion Soup was good however it was almost cold. Considering the staff must travel through the cold air, perhaps should be prepared extra hot in order it make it to the table just right. Bundle up the kiddos and older family, as it is pretty chilly in the igloos. All in all the experience was wonderful.

Set in their outdoor igloos, they warm them with a heater and adorably decorated. Food was all very delicious, best spiked hot chocolate I’ve ever had.

Loved the igloo and everything about the atmosphere of the Inn and surroundings. Unbelievable old time Christmas feel. The fuzzy throws on the chairs were warm and cozy. Service was very good and staff were friendly.

This was the perfect night out in Maine! Cozy, warm, delicious food & drinks!

We sipped on cocktails and dined in one of the outdoor gondola’s on a beautiful winters afternoon. It was toasty, festive and romantic. We were celebrating my husbands birthday and the staff really made it special (2 glasses of champagne awaiting us at our table). Although the menu was abbreviated (thank you, COVID) it was very good. The homemade lobster dip with toast points and the perogies were a few of our favorites. It was the perfect way to spend our afternoon. All COVID protocols were carefully maintained. Kudos on making our stay at the Kennebunkport Inn special, highly recommended!

The igloo we had was perfect! The decorations, the heat & the size were on point! Service, food & drinks were excellent. We will be back!

We all loved the food and it was a great experience all around!

We loved the Ambiance and the fact we could be by ourselves it was very romantic and nice with a roaring fire right out our window !
It was our second trip there and loved it just as much as the first time . And it will not be our last ♥️❤️💕

The food was fantastic and the staff couldn’t have been nicer to our family!

This restaurant made a last minute decision to only offer an expensive price fix menu without any notice. It was not posted on their website or on Open Table nor shared in the text confirmation message. This is disrespectful to customers. We will not frequent this business again. We found another local restaurant who appreciated our patronage.

They don’t serve dinner, although they still take dinner reservations on opentable. They only have a very limited menu of approx 4 small tapas. Very different from what we expected when we booked. We left and went elsewhere.

We didn’t stay for dinner. We were unaware but they changed their menu a few weeks ago and it’s now really just a bar. We were looking for a sit down dinner not bar food. There was also a very loud woman playing music outside. The music was fine, she was just unnecessarily loud.

They no longer serve dinner they just have bar bites

Food was very good. Huge problems on this Sunday Brunch timeframe. Lots of kinks to be worked out and likely short of staff, kitchen and servers.

Food was great but the service was horrible and they were not even apologetic about it. Felt like it was being run by a team of high school students all on their first day

Great atmosphere; great food!

Drinks were excellent. Menu is limited, but food was EXCELLENT. Highly recommend.

Was our first time eating at the Burleigh. We didn't order anything terribly fancy - just the burger and the fried chicken sandwich. The chicken was very good and the cheeseburger was truly outstanding. Also kudos to the cocktails. Our waitress was friendly and courteous. We'll be back for sure!

Allie was great! We sat at a hightop next to the fireplace in the piano room, it was lovely!

Amazing mussels. All of the food was delicious. The short rib and the steak & frites were great.
But the service was slow and uneven. Maybe the wait staff could use some more training. It was early in the season.
The decor is beautiful...nice wallpaper, furniture and lighting. All-in-all a beautiful restaurant.

Went to The Burleigh with my son on a Friday night. I was a little surprised, initially, to find that the "restaurant" is in a bar area of the hotel (like, you sit in the same room with the bar). It probably only has about 10 tables. Also, the wait staff was new for the season, so service was a bit clunky. All of that out of the way, the food was fantastic. I had the stuffed pork chop and my son had the skate wing - both were excellent. So, if you can put up with a little noise and a few service hiccups, the food is well worth it.

Short ribs and Caesar salad! Delicious!

From an initial overview, the Burleigh would seem a no-brainer as a place that serves delicious food in a cozy, warm and inviting space. The atmosphere hits all of those things, but the food unfortunately falls
short, and is sadly apparent across most of the main dishes and appetizers I have tried. As I travel to Maine often, I desperately hope they can fix this. It's very disappointing as this is such a gem to stay and has great potential. The food experience should be one that matches its decor and hotel service; comfortable, satisfying, and most importantly delicious, yet not too pretentious. I come here because I expect an experience that reminds me of being home. Sadly, the food reads wonderfully on the menu and is presented well, but the taste and flavors used in what should be classic fare are distracting, as if they are trying too hard to impress, and lack the "comfort food" satisfaction I crave. A much better choice to find both a satisfying eating and dining experience delivered with quality, service and delightful flavor combinations that don't detract, would be Joshua's in Wells.

Had a great meal at The Burleigh! The muscles were delicious and the new lobster fettuccine is so good. Gaby always treats us well and Ryan was a fantastic server-everyone was very attentive!

We had an excellent experience at the Burleigh. The waiter was Eric and he was very knowledgeable and enhanced our evening. The food was outstanding. And is a place we will definitely return to. Thank you

Sat at the bar for happy hour and enjoyed some awesome food and drinks for a reasonable price!

After opting to dine at the bar, the post appetizer flow of our dinner was interrupted by a jolt of orders for Margarita Specials from 'The Igloos'. Watching the team at The Inn resolve the crisis...and the immediate kindly attention and explanation from our bar tender, Gabby, smoothed the way to a memorable dining experience. The meal was as good as meals get. The evening was further seamlessly enhanced by piano music, well played and good company at the bar. When we thought that things couldn't be improved upon, Cameron saw to our 'after dinner' cordial in an igloo. Kindly, gracious staff, great food, friendly clientele. We look forward to our next visit in a few months.

Everything at The Burleigh was wonderful . The food was not prepared as typically found in restaurants . Had the fettuccine with lobster - the sauce was delicious , lobster tender and served piping hot . The skate ,not something you often find on a menu was cooked to perfection . Eric our server was friendly , attentive (without being annoying!) and extremely knowledgeable . We were hoping to return before leaving the area - wish we had ! Best meal in KPT.

We got reservations last minute to The Burleigh and we were not disappointed! We had a table in the bar area, which was a little noisy, but a young guitarist was playing and he was amazing. The menu wasn't huge but food was fresh and delicious. Waitstaff and host very pleasant. We were only disappointed with didn't know to get there a bit earlier to take advantage of the outdoor igloo seating! We will return.

We’ve always enjoyed dining at the Burleigh and it nice to come back after a few years.
Everything was great except perhaps if our table were in the next room since the band was rather loud
Normally if it were just my wife and I we wouldn’t mind the band and would have liked sitting near the bar
However there was 7 of us and we had a difficult time conversing
But we’ll be back- we love this restaurant

We loved our experience at The Burleigh. Delicious food great entertainment and beautiful decor

Charming architecture. Unfortunately, they had outdoor seating in heated “igloos”, and every time a server or customer went outside, cold air rushed in. Several times, the exterior door was left open. I got up and shut the door myself after it was left open for a few minutes. Menu is not descriptive, so we had to ask lots of questions. No vegetable accompanied the entree. Dessert menu was a bit strange. The food we had was good.

Start to finish - fantastic! Everyone behind the bar was friendly and efficient - best cosmo ever!

Great food, great service and a beautiful room - gorgeous bar and decor.

The evening started off with some issues - noisy table near by, got very busy and not enough staff, bar service was slow, food order not right - evening ended fine. We moved tables, the waiter was very apologetic about all of the issues and gave us some reduced rates based on the issues we had.

We took my mother in law out for her birthday. Had a lovely meal here. The dining room is quiet and small, menu was great - interesting options. Will definitely go back.

Went for dinner last weekend and was unaware they no longer serve a full dinner menu. I was unimpressed with the selection of items - lobster roll and chicken sandwich were the only real dinner choices. I had the lobster roll - it was not good....way too much mayo - it was overpowering and almost inedible. chicken sandwich was ok - but this will be the last time we visit unless they change the dinner offering.

New Year’s Eve dinner

Service was excellent! Food was very good. We were seated in the bar area near the live musician which I first thought would be loud, but was not at all. Bo was great - husband and I had fun with the family.

As a KPort local I walk to the Burleigh and find it to be consistently good and a step up from your usual town restaurant. The menu is well executed and while not extensive I always find 3 or 4 items we enjoy. Nicely laid out dining room and a good bar area for adults. Great service too.
