Being new to the Sebago Lake area, we’ve been asking around for recommendations on good food. Someone recommended the Oxford House Inn and my cousin’s birthday was the perfect excuse to try it out. Spectacular experience!! The food and drinks were equally delicious, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice!! We will be back!

Very nice building. Love that it is also a Bed and Breakfast which I plan on going to visit. As soon as we were seated at a window seat with a great view we were sold. The drinks were great. We ordered the bibb salad and it was HUGE. Smoked grapes and fried shallots were delicious and then the dressing was so fresh tasting. Hubby had the Chicken stuffed with Ham and Cheese and that was so moist and flavorful with Rosemary potatoes. So good. I had the Salmon and it was cooked perfectly and the squash noodles and peppers and sauce just so good. I will go here again and also recommend it to others.

When you walk through the door, you know you are in for a treat. Beautifully preserved older home with tables spaced so you can have a private conversation. Exceptional service. Strong wine list. The honey/sea salt butter on the multi grain sourdough bread was scrumptious. We had the duck and the filet mignon. Both cooked exactly as we asked and seasoned just right. Cozy bar downstairs. This place is worth the drive!

Nice restaurant! Great food. Not a chain and definitely thought put into the recipes. Very nice ambience....great for a special occasion, yet they welcome the less casual diner as well. Service was very good. In today's market, the prices were comparable.

The Oxford House Inn is our favorite restaurant. The food is exceptional, elegant but without pretense, and the menu is varied and locally sourced. Service is courteous, warm, and friendly. We always get the back porch area when it's available for the beautiful, serene views of the mountains. It's always a wonderful dining experience.
