Open less than six months,  The Front Room is already drawing strong support from customers throughout the day. It’s a rarity to find a table without a wait, and a bummer they don’t take reservations. But it’s true that the best things are those worth waiting for. Whether you’re up for their buzz-of-the-town brunch, served daily until 2 pm, or their solid-and-comforting dinner, starting at 5 pm (4 on Sundays), you’ll find new friends and old ones at the close-set tables, and the feel of a true parlor with all the windows out onto the street. And it really is a lot like your own front room, a comfy place with excellent food at really decent prices. Almost like home. The Front Room | 73 Congress St, Portland | 207.773.3366
