Galyn’s is a family-run restaurant offering fresh, well-prepared foods, served by a friendly, professional staff. Historic architecture and contemporary art create a relaxed and inviting setting.
Fresh and local
Galyn’s menu features Maine seafood including fresh fish, lobster, oysters, scallops and more. Additional steak, chop, chicken, vegetarian and gluten-free selections mean there is something for almost everyone. An extensive wine list, hand-crafted cocktails and local beers complement Galyn’s well-prepared food offerings.
Cozy contemporary
Ceilings are high, rooms are spacious, and the architectural details and attentive staff create a sense of old-world gentility. But Galyn’s is far from stuffy—contemporary Maine art, and a menu that seeks the best and most flavorful ingredients the area has to offer, makes it distinctly 21st century. Some dining rooms have harbor views and others offer cozy, well-appointed interior spaces.
Art on our walls
Food and art have a harmonious relationship, and the fine art collection at Galyn’s celebrates that connection. Galyn’s collection, featuring the spectacular Maine coast, working harbors, and Maine life, is said to be the largest publicly displayed private art collection in Maine. Each dining room is furnished with original fine art paintings, creating a sophisticated backdrop for a memorable meal.
