Enjoyed some outstanding house made bagels, cookies, and coffee. Line was long but was well organized and moved quickly! Service was very friendly and well appreciated!! Only wish I had a bit more time to gaze through all the incredible eats and treats…

Dan Brown

The Maine sea salt bagel is world class, I’m not sure it can be beat. People laugh when I say the best bagels are in Portland but I never hear them talking after picking up a dozen on the way north. Only noms..

Heather and Jeannie Rice-Sawyer

I visit from Portland, Maine from Canada a few times a year. I always try to get bagels from Scratch, as they are a family favorite. I am from Portland and love the Willard Beach area. It makes for a great location for this “sweet”, little bakery. The staff are great and always cheery. The baked goods are amazing. We always get bagels and herb cream cheese. My partner likes their vegan cream cheese. The coffee is pretty good too. The only down fall is I sometimes can’t get bagels because they sell out so darn fast. That’s usually a huge disappointment to the fam.

Jeremy Bilotti

Been coming here for 9 years and love the bagels themselves. Unique and high quality; different from NY style. I bring bags of them to friends out of state. Worth a try for sure. Reason for 3 stars: — It’s weird that you can’t get a bagel cut or toasted (maybe this feels wrong because staff now serves the bagels, whereas previously customers served themselves), and it’s difficult to do it yourself with a small plastic knife. Kind of messes with the texture of the bagel. It seems like a small thing, but it really does make the experience unpleasant. — Since the renovation, it feels disorienting to enter the store and buy something. It’s so popular and busy that staff isn’t always able to be attentive to every customer…which isn’t a huge deal, but maybe something like better signage would help folks understand what the ordering system is and to set expectations for someone walking in.

Grace Sanford

Scratch has the best bagels around, and incredible pastries to go with them. They are worth any wait. A staple of my childhood, and one of my favorite things about home. I personally recommend a salt bagel with herb cream cheese, but you can’t go wrong!

Helena Torres

We lived in Portland Maine 10 years ago. We're coming from Mobile Alabama. And we dreamt of having bagels at this place. It's an institution in the places you must go. I love the salt and black sesame bagel and the everything bagel. Their pastry is outstanding. Thanks for the wonderful time. We enjoyed ourselves.

Michelle

Most unique, soft and flavorful bagels I’ve ever had. The sea salt bagel is perfectly coated in a light crust of salt. We also tried the hot pepper, ham and chive scone and the ham and gruyere croissant. We are up visiting family in the area and when we return, we’ll be here for breakfast everyday! Everything looks scrumptious.

Karl Morlock

Best bakery in the area hands down. Long lines out front sometimes because its worth it! Nice variety and FRESH. We have been known to drive from 2 towns away for a Saturday morning treat. Food is amazing

Greg S. Graf

This place makes amazing baked goods! I really wanted to give 5 stars, But only 3 stars because i had a severe allergy reaction due to cross-contamination and i was very careful and asked for all the ingredients for everything i bought. They need to be more allergy friendly! Love the food but grow up a little and fix the cross-contamination and dirty kitchen when baking. I think you have outgrown your kitchenspace.

Fredrick Drake

Best bagels in the area. Only downside is a bit of a wait if you want sea salt bagels. Also the cream cheese is incredible, especially the herb one. Other than the bagels there is an excellent selection of baked goods including, fantastic cookies, bread, cinnamon buns, and really good blueberry muffins. The space itself is quaint and the staff is friendly.

Amanda Landis

Doesn’t get better than Scratch! Everything I have ever gotten has blown me away. They have the most amazing bagels and pastries that I have found in Maine. The workers are incredibly kind and helpful and make the experience that much better. They care about their community and the community cares about them. Start your day early by going to Scratch, you won’t be disappointed.

Scott Pactor

Very good local bakery, and while the bagels are indeed good, I would take issue with the folks throwing superlatives around like these are the best bagels of all time. I went twice on a recent visit to South Portland, the line Saturday morning at 730 am was already down the block. Coffee and other pastries were also very good. Very much a must if you are nearby.

Terese Tamminen

Yumm...delicious bagel sandwich and a delicious latte. The best way to start the day! Only wish I was there to try the pizza and bread they make in the afternoon!!

Chelby Daniels

Best bakery! Wonderful food, amazing staff. I adore everything that comes out of the Scratch kitchen. The cookies, brownies, scones, breads, cakes, pies... the drool list goes on, and on, and on!! Amazing bagels too! Oh, and the coffee and breakfast sandwiches! A MUST go place!

Jennifer Faragalli

Hands down, one of my favorite spots in Maine. Bread, bagels, dessert, coffee, pimento cheese - all so good! The bonus? The people. Amazing, dedicated, efficient staff that make you feel welcomed…just like family. We love you, Scratch!!

Bill Horn

Bagels are some of the best I’ve had. Sweets, less so, but ok. Breakfast items had sold out by mid-morning on a Tuesday, but a steady stream of fresh items seemed to be making an appearance, perhaps in preparation for the lunch rush. Clientele was a fair mix of neighborhood folks and tourists, lots of families, people on their way to be nearby beach, all ages. Counter service was friendly and efficient. Not much seating apart from a bench and a couple picnic tables out front - everything’s ‘take-out’. No bathroom.

Windy O’Leary

One of my favorite places for lunch or sweets. Great array of delicious sweets here! And, they make a mean Cuban. Some sandwiches and alternating soups. Amazing salads with fresh veggies!

Gregory Gundberg

The bagels are good but not prepared for you. You have to prep your own bagel at home.

Myles Jeffrey

If you want the best bagel in New England (or probably the entire eastern seaboard), look no further than Scratch’s sea salt bagel. Soft, yet chewy, this sourdough bagel has just enough salt to push it over the edge. It’s incredible. The other baked goods and pastries are delicious as well, and the sandwiches are tasty too. I love the vegan jerk chick’n sandwich from the picture!

Carissa Bubier

Ginger milk tea is always amazing, pizza great, desserts great, bagels great. I go out of my way to stop here. I value good customer service and everyone I have dealt with is friendly, polite and prompt.

liz z

finally made it to scratch before they ran out of bagels on a saturday morning, and it was very much worth the wait! bagels have an excellent texture, and the baked goods were delightful

Heidi Nottonson

Always delicious and hard to resist! The baked goods are consistent each time I go and worth the short wait in line.

Bill Romond

Went for first time this AM. Couldn't believe how long the line was down the sidewalk....then I tried a bagel and realized why! Best bagels & scones I've ever had, hands down! And their system moves customers through very efficiently.

Matthew Carroll

Some might say the bagels are too bready but I love them. The new space is set up well, so the line moves quickly. I haven’t seen as many vegan baked options recently but there’s always something.

Kay

Such a cute stop! Kind employees! DELICIOUS TREATS!!!

Michael Ludwig

Far and away the best bakery anywhere. Excellent sandwiches, coffee, wine, beer...but the baked goods are so good. No corners cut, top notch ingredients, attention to detail. I can't say enough about how good this place is. I particularly like their coconut cake, almond horns, and macaroons, but EVERYTHING is delicious.

Andrew Baker

Great sandwiches and food bread. My kids devoured several chicken salad sandwiches, which is an unusual miracle. They're very good at what they do. My one complaint is that the pretzel bread had a strongly phenolic (look it up) flavor that was off-putting enough that I wouldn't order it again unless it's addressed. I don't know if it's a lye bath process problem or sanitizer left over from dishwashing, but it's not ok. I would go back.

Brent N

The best bagels I've ever had. Their bagels are made more like bread, with a bit of a sourdough taste. They crisp up perfectly in the toaster, and with the cream cheese they sell here, they are a real treat and one of my favorite things to enjoy in the morning. The rest of their pastries and breads are also amazing, but make sure to order early or they will sell out! Be patient with those working here, especially during the pandemic. Everyone in the service industry is being worked brutally hard, and some consideration and friendliness goes a long way.

Candy stores are to kids what bakeries are to me. I had read online about this bakery so I had to go pay a visit. Walked in and it was a feast for my eyes. What we tried: Chocolate chip cookie, delicious, soft center and crispy edges. Peanut butter cookie, same texture as the chocolate chip one, flavorful, had actual peanuts in it for nice crunch. Almond horn cookie, macaroon texture, strong almond extract, nice toasted almond exterior. Sea salt shortbread, soft and bland, tasted and felt like eating plain flour. Plain bagel, great crunchy exterior and soft chewy interior with a a nice tangy flavor from the yeast. Grilled cheese and tomato sandwich, meh, tasted like toast and tomato. The cheese appeared to be mozzarella, which would explain the flavorless factor. I honestly was expecting a sharp cheddar in it. Turkey club sandwich, bread was great, filling was bland. I would say stick to the baked goods. Definitely worth more visits to try other things.

Karen Klockson

Great place- so popular though foe the bagels there is always a wait and good luck finding a bagel after 11am. Great and friendly staff

Diana Kudayarova

Great welcoming space that smells delicious! The bagels are awesome, so was the English muffin and a pound cake

Peter Osiecki

The best bagels period! If you think I'm kidding, walk into Scratch, look to your right, and be wowed! The vibe in there is good too! You won't be able to wait for home.

Andrea Lai

Bagels are superb! I’ve been going here for 8 years and the team consistently delivers delicious bagels and baked goods! I highly recommend!!

Morgan Gilson

LOVE Scratch! Their cookies are dangerous, and their fresh bread is also delicious! The pup is a fan of their biscuits, as well, so all around a fabulous place!

Karen Kelley

Scratch has always been wonderful but during the Pandemic they were even more so. It ran like clockwork. You placed your order online, chose a time to pick up, (earlier we drove up)but now we get in the “pick up” line and get our goodies promptly!! Bagels, fresh bread, yummy pastry and various cream cheeses. Many folks got freshly brewed coffee. Staff is friendly and cheerful even on the cold, snowy or rainy days. Wonderful way to start the day. I’m sure me bringing bagels was the reason family invited me for garage visits over the past year. Getting ready to get my weekly bagels and go sit on Willard Beach!

Philip Cassady

Recently renovated since I was there last. The Molasses Cookie was extremely moist and very flavorful.

John Baldwin

I was introduced to this local neighborhood bakery by my brother in law about 6 years ago. He is a local and we live in upstate NY. Whenever we are in town I make it a point to stop here for bagels. These are some of the best bagels I have ever had. 7/19/18 Update:Back in town, back for the bagels. Yum. 7/28/22 Update: back for the bagels and they're great. Like the new shop layout.

Maggie Bankert

I live in New York City and Scratch has THE BEST bagels I’ve ever had. Always fresh!! The cream cheese is also delicious (both herb and plain). More importantly though, the Scratch workers are happy and helpful. Good bagels. Good coffee. Great people. Stop by and come back as often as we do!

Amir Shirazi

I had the chocolate cookies so far, the BEST!! I have the bread and more pastries to try when I get home, it smells and looks wonderful.

Dominic Barry

The best bakery in Portland. They might be known for there bagels, but you should be sure to grab a cookie or other baked good to. You won't be let down!

Susan Dodd

My favorite bakery no matter where I go! Their bagels, breads, pimento cheese spread, and shortbread are my favorite. ❤

Laisson DeSouza

Great place, friendly service! Go early though, it gets busy quickly

Robert Hartley

Disappointing bagels. So soft they were difficult to cut with a bread knife. And sourdough? No. "Everything" bagel here means every kind of seed but no onion or garlic flakes. Skip their bagels but I would expect their bread to be excellent because their bagel dough is what you might expect in a good French boule.

T L

Otherworldly bagels. The black sea salt and everything bagels are amazing. At 5hus time you cannot enter the bakery and there is no seating. Simply grab and go. The staff is always courteous. Tip: They sell out of everything pretty quick. You can pre-order your bagels online and be guaranteed the flavor you want.

Melissa Wood

I've long loved this place, but I'm leaving a review for how well they've adapted their business to continue serving customers during the pandemic. The system is easy. You either order ahead online or on site. There's one line for pickup for both types of orders. This can be long on the weekends, but they get through it surprisingly quickly. Just be sure to check your bag before you go as we've had a couple mixups. However, everything they make is wonderful so it wasn't a big deal. I would love it if Scratch continued to allow online orders and pickup even after they re-open the shop. Thank you for being here!

Jordan Holmes

Not sure why there are so many disgruntled reviews, they provide very clear instructions and friendly service. Their handling of the pandemic has been wonderful (but I am anxious for the day I can go back inside and look at the bakery case!). We have been coming here for years and it’s the perfect neighborhood bakery to pick up a delicious breakfast, lunch, or treat

Jessica Dalzell

Pretty tasty bakery. We picked up bagels to take over to the Head Lighthouse for a little breakfast picnic. Make sure you ask for you bagels to be sliced, because they do not automatically come sliced.

Ahmad A

Sorry New York. I tried more than 50% of New York best bagels. And I keep coming back to this bagel place in South Portland Maine paired to my taste, they make the best bagels on earth. Maybe I’m exaggerating but maybe I’m not but I do love their bagels. The first time I tried them back in 2015 I fell in love. I came back in 2018 and they do still make the same quality. It’s not only that they ran out of bagels by 9 AM. Yes that’s good. So that means you have to wake up early come here. Grab some bagels and coffee and take it to the lighthouse and enjoy the scenery over there. They have the oldest lighthouse with in five minutes from this place. I just love Maine so much.

rob ervay

Amazing bagels. Always a must have when visiting the area. Get there early to ensure you get their amazing bagels. Love their cream cheese as well.

Josh Manney

Excellent job keeping it going baking up so many tasty breakfast-time treats! On-line ordering or using the take-out window during these never-ending pandemic times allows for great service. Can't wait to have a tasty sea salt bagel this morning or maybe some of your blueberry crumb cake washing it down with some unique and delicious ginger milk tea!

Chuck Hayward

Scratch has kept us sane throughout the pandemic. Everything they make is delicious, and they’ve done well adjusting their processes given the high demand for their amazing treats and the changing guidelines. I miss being able to go in but will continue to support this superb local bakery until we can go back in person and get some of their awesome pizza again.

paul stevens

A neighborhood favorite. Awesome baked goods, a little on the pricey side. They sell out of bagels early so best to get there just as they open, especially on a weekend. The website says they open at 7:00, but it's not really until 7:30. Guess their web person is on sabbatical.

Naomi B

The bagels here are unbelievable. How can they be so delicious? It's a baking miracle, if you ask me. Every single one of their bagel varieties are delicious on their own or with the various cream cheeses they have available (especially pimento!). Their cakes and pastries are so cute or beautiful you almost feel bad about destroying them except that they look too tasty to spare. Coffee is good as well! It's nice to grab a hot cup and a pastry before walking down to Willard Beach to lounge and nibble, especially on a cold day when your hands need a good warming up!

Tanya

My family and I like to get our bagels here. Very delicious! And so are the sweet treats. We buy cream cheese elsewhere, it’s very expensive for a small container.

Rory Benjamin

Without a doubt the best bakery in South Portland, and certainly a strong contender for the one of the top tier baked goods stores in greater Portland. There's a reason why you will often see a line of people outside of the store in the morning, waiting for the doors to open. The bagels are light and not nearly as dense as mass-market brands. Their flavor is truly sublime beyond description.

Wendy Peterson

The best bagels I’ve ever had! And love their sweet treats,too! My dog can even have a freshly baked doggie treat. Get there early though, cuz they have become very popular.

Paul Dixon

The best bagels I have ever had. Who cares if they're not officially 'bagels' or not - they taste awesome and are pretty darn huge as well. The sandwiches are massive too. Have to say the sweets aren't 'quite' as good. Only downside is the 'weekend' crowd that makes it practically impossible to get a bagel there after 9am at the weekend - and where are you people at 6:30am on a mid-week morning in the winter when I'm there getting my bagels after my morning run.....eh??!!?

Don Elliot (DonInMaine)

The Bagels are the draw and the legend, but all is good. Chocolate Chip cookies are excellent and generous and just the right chewy with lots of chips. This is important. But the bagels.. I stopped by one frigid, I mean Maine cold, morning just after sunrise. A line out front 20 people long, in the frozen dark, waiting for them to open.

Joshua Watkins

Everything is amazing but don't leave without grabbing a Maine Sea Salt bagel! Trust me!!

Annette Koziol

Wow! The bagels are big, and soft and chewy in the inside, while having a beautiful crust on the outside. Get the Maine sea salt. They have an in house pimento cream cheese. Get that. I'm in serious trouble now with the breakfast sandwich. Off the charts. It's on a Maine sea salt bagel with sliced up hard boiled eggs a special sauce, ham, arugula. There is a vegetarian one too. They are grab and go. And I seem to be grabbing and going them a lot lately. Yikes! They have some great local offerings of cheese and butter and some great in house made condiments. Pastries are epic. I sit in my car while I'm thoroughly enjoying my breakfast sandwich and look around at the local houses and think how lucky they are too live right by the bakery, where I drive from Brunswick to South Portland to get there. You won't be disappointed. The staff if kind, patient and helpful.

Jane Croston

I have been a huge fan. Some things they do better than anyone- and of course the Bagels are one! The almond crescents and quick pickup sandwiches are super. We like to stop in and get lunch and coffee and head to Bug Light to eat. Staff are friendly and so helpful, too.

Jessica Simpson

Had absolutely delicious mini cherry cheesecakes, and a small chocolate ganache cake for dessert for 5 people, and we had leftovers. Love their rocket rolls, which are perfect for a small sandwich. Others will talk about the bagels. Don't go into Scratch if you don't have willpower. The smell, sights and choices are incredibly hard to resist!

Dylan Martin

Scratch is the best neighborhood bakery one could ever ask for. Top-notch coffee, and there are so many delicious bagels, scones, muffins, cakes, cupcakes, pizza slices (yes, around lunchtime) and other kinds of baked goods to choose from. Scratch also has super-friendly staff, which is one of the reasons why I look forward to visiting there daily for coffee. My hope is that the staff are paid well, because they really add a lot to the experience. But outside of knowing that, you get a sense that Scratch does treat its employees well (especially when considering the fact that it took more than half of a week off earlier this fall for employees).

Timothy Goodell

In a word...delicious. The breakfast sandwiches are incredible, and the bagels are the most unique I've ever had. Can't wait to visit Portland again so I can go there.

Rachel Poth

This is my favorite place in Maine. Not my favorite bagel place.... Legit favorite spot in the state. The bagels are beyond delicious. So crunchy but soft in the middle. Sea salt... Oh my glob the sea salt. Those perfect little diamonds from the sea just make these round things more delightful. Then you take your sea salt bagel to Willard beach. And you will too see why this is the best place on Maine. Pick up after yourself and don't mind the line in the summer. It is worth it.

tracy albert

Best Bakery in Portland! So affordable. Their case is loaded with REASONABLY priced goodies, different each day. I had the almond horseshoes-the best I've ever had in my life. Everything we've ever eaten from there has been perfectly flavored. Not too sweet, but not lacking the necessary sweetness. Thoughtful creations, taste is right on, price is palatable. Yes, its true, parking is not great and seating is non existent. Besides that, Scratch is the best of the bakeries in Portland.

Kevin Ferguson

Delightful cookies, pastries and sandwiches. Can get busy on weekend mornings but worth the wait. The bagels are famous but don't miss the fresh granola and hearty English muffins too.

Charity Priscilla

Scratch Bakery never disappoints. The pastries are excellent--best and biggest chocolate chip cookies ever! They have a rotating selection of small cakes, tartes, and pies, as well as fresh baked breads and homemade granola. You can also find artisan sandwiches, organic dairy products, and last but not least, coffee! We are so fortunate to live only a couple blocks away. I highly recommend a trip to Scratch if you're in the area.

Matt Waller

Of all the bakeries in the area that I've tried, Scratch is my favorite by far. Whether your in the mood for something savory or sweet, they've got some fantastic options. The bakers are all talented and polite, and everything is kept clean. Grab some fresh baked goods and go for a stroll down to Willard beach. You won't be disappointed!

Richard Burbank

As a former baker/pastry chef and one who has studied pastry in Paris, I have to say this place is stellar. The coffee is always very hot and richly brewed. Lunch is always healthy and quick. The pizza's are my favorite and very reasonably priced. Whenever my work appointments take me to the South Portland / Cape Elizabeth area, guess where I'm stopping. Its my habit. Its that good!

Bethesda Bees

Worth the visit if you are in the area. Excellent cookies.

James Stewart

Hands down best bagel in the world. We lived several years in Portland and so sad when we left. Living overseas we craved a quiet weekend morning of grabbing a fresh baked bagel and walking down the street to Willard Beach to enjoy it looking out over beautiful Casco Bay. Every time we’re back in the area this is a must stop. We also enjoy their cooking magazines and have used a lot of their recipes.

CJ Knight

Would get 5 stars for the food but they just can't keep up with demand and are always sold out of bagels. Always a terrible wait. Started to order on line and that was fine for awhile but now waiting for online orders. Can never find a place near bye for parking. Always full of cars with Mass plates.

Rory Platt

Love the bagels here. There's a reason this is a local favorite. I'm delighted that they have a barista on staff now so I can get a real cup of coffee made on the spot. They have just about everything you need for a breakfast/brunch treat on Willard Beach.

Jacob Firestone

The bagels were delicious and the coffee was decent but the cream cheese was overpriced. Also this place gave my anxiety! There were people everywhere and no order to the line or structure to the store whatsoever. They also couldn't toast and cream cheese my bagel which is fine but we were out of town and on our way to Willard beach it was annoying. I recommend the sea salt bagel but get ready for a chaotic experience and people aimlessly walking around. The staff was also not helpful and just stared at you I had to initiate all of the talking to find out they couldn't toast the the bagels.

André Wolff

Really nice surprise in South Portland. Although the sandwiches were not properly warmed up, they tasted great. I loved the bagles offering. It all looked authentic and properly cared for. Strongly recommended for any bread lover.

Tom Frye

I will start off by saying this place is amazing. However it’s quite a drive for me to get there so when I arrived on 12/2/20 to find them closed but with a sign saying “will be open tomorrow 12/3/20” I was bummed but completely understood. Made the drive again the next day (today 12/3/20) to find them closed again with the same sign hung saying they’ll be open today, made me pretty upset. Not sure what’s going on but I don’t think I’ll be making the drive again anytime soon. Still give them 5 stars for being a great bakery but definitely call ahead.

Alice Trent

When I visited my friend in Cape Elizabeth and she told me there was a fabulous bakery nearby I thought "How good can it be up here?" I owned a high end French bakery for 15 years and knew as soon as I walked in and saw the display that this was not an ordinary bakery. All I can say is, "Fabulous". The quality of the products is top notch. The pizza is so fabulous I insisted to my friend that we buy extra pieces and have it for breakfast--which we did. I never tasted the bagel. Why waste your time on a bagel when you have this fabulous array of wonderful pastries and pizza and everything else. Go here and enjoy yourself.

Galen Fitzpatrick

Everything about Scratch baking is wonderful. Even waiting for a fresh batch of bagels somehow seems like a benefit. Great bagels, great baked goods, ok coffee and every type of person from South Portland from blue collar workers to college hipsters, long-term residents and tourists. It is a busy little hive and is not to be missed. Daily offerings (other than bagels; get the sea salt) are variable based in the whims of the team of Baker's working on any given day.

Rory dela Paz

Their sourdough bagels are awesome. And the staff are all very accommodating. One of them even went out of his way to get me a small tub of vegan cream cheese.

lucybeirne

Love everything they do. We’re so lucky to have scratch in our community!

Jen Murphy

HOLY COW, Scratch Baking Co! Everything is delicious. Go early and get one of their heaven-on-earth bagels. They sell out! Every sandwich I have had was fantastic, and I enjoy the black/mint blend iced tea and almond horseshoes. I've been known to bike 40 miles round trip up the rail trail and back with friends just to visit this place.

Ian Mcburney

One of the best places in the Portland area to get baked from scratch pastry English muffins bread and bagels. They make fresh cakes and cookies daily, along with Specialties like homemade ring dings, fruit flavored coffee cakes, and wonderful almond horns. If you loved homemade style baked goods there's no better place in the Portland area! Also offers sandwiches and espresso drinks and coffee. Plus a small selection of take-home items like eggs cheese and cream cheese. Get there early for the best selection.

Nicole M

THE BEST BAKERY! I've been coming here for a year for the bagels, herbed cream cheese, olive bread and various sweet treats, never once have I been disappointed. I'm disappointed in myself that in a year's time I don't have a single picture of anything I've purchased form Scratch on my phone, but I'll sum that up to the baked goods being so good I never thought to take a moment away from stuffing my face for a pic.

Brenden O'Brien

Excellent local bakery! Great stop along the way (especially if biking) from Portland to Portland Head Lights. The salt bagel and herb cream cheese was outstanding. Peanut butter cookie was fantastic.

Kay Green

I love Scratch. Such a cute place to go. The only problem is everyone loves Scratch so the lines can be long. Get there early or call ahead for extra bagels! Salt are the best!!

Steven Li

Bagel Perfection. Warning - Once you've eaten a delicious bagel from Scratch Baking, you may never be happy with bagels from anywhere else ever again. This sucks for those of us that don't live nearby Scratch Baking! Ever since I ate one of their bagels last year, every bagel I've eaten since has just seemed utterly average. My mouth craves the scrumptious, chewy bagels with a sprinkle of sea salt on top. These bagels are perfect with or without cream cheese. I miss you, Scratch Baking Bagel. I will need to make another trip to South Portland soon!

Linda Morris

Scratch is super fabulous! Love love LOVE all their baked goods, super yummy coffees/teas and awesome delish sandwiches & salads. And the staff is very friendly and efficient. Nothing but love for this sweet & savory neighborhood bakery extraordinaire! 💖💖💖 …

Michael Hussey

Crazy busy -- but understandably so. You must order online in advance -- and order early if you want to enjoy some Scratch bagels today.

Mike McKernan

Fantastic bakery known for their sourdough bagels. Big selection of other goodies including cookies, cakes, and breads. I really like their coffee as well. Never had a problem finding on-street parking right in Willard Square. Suppose it depends on timing.

melissa wallace

Amazing place. Just the Artistry and what they do on the day-to-day creating treats from Savory to Sweet. Staff is so very helpful and extraordinarily friendly. We were shocked that there wasn't a line around the corner. What a beautiful gem to an already chock-full foodie town.

Ryan Gay

Best bagels in the world. Update: Newly remodeled space is fantastic. So functional and really enhanced the personalized experience. Still the best bagels in the world.

Jessica Reed

My family and I went here at the recommendation of a friend. By the time we got there - shortly after noon - there were no bagels left. So I can't speak to the bagels. My husband ordered a ham sandwich, though they were out of the originally called for bread so they substituted a different kind. I got a pulled pork sandwich, and it was really yummy. We also purchased a lemon yogurt cake/bar (good flavor, a little dry - perhaps because it sat out on a serve yourself "bar" all day) and a brownie. Of all the things we tried the brownie was by far the most delicious and I would recommend stopping in for a brownie if you're ever in the area. :)

Charles McClelland

Awesome bagels and we were excited about going there today. Unfortunately, the power outage has them closed until the 20th. Thought I would post here since they are not updating their website or voicemail message. Hope this great place and all the folks affected by the storm get back on their feet soon.

Kaitlin M

The bagels. THE BAGELS! They were so fluffy, chewy, delicious. We waited in line and missed out on the famous Maine Sea Salt, but the seed bagels were delicious! The line went quickly, and I had a ginger scone while waiting-super moist and a great crumble. I also had a wonderful latte. The line situation is confusing, so ask people around you in order not to accidentally offend! Get there early because they quit making the bagels at a certain time!

John C

This place has some dangerously good baked goods. Their bagels, which seem to be sourdough, are positively amazing. It doesn't end there however, since their coffee is also great, as well as their cookies, and their sea salt shortbread...etc etc

Nick Childs

This is a really cute place! Willard square needs a good down to earth market just like this one. The bread is fresh and the San Pellegrinos in the fridge are cold. Their service is kind, just what you'd expect from a cute neighborhood bakery.

William Church

This is a neighborhood institution. If you want to get the flavor of living in SoPo and Willard Beach before you buy here I strongly urge all to come and hang out here on Sat or Sunday morning. It seems like the entire community shows up to buy coffee and bagels which are the best in the area. The bread and sweets are to great. The ocean is only a few minutes walk away so buy here and have your breakfast on the beach, which by the way is a dog friendly beach.

Graham Porell

My parents recently introduced me to Scratch during a recent visit to the Portland Area. The bagels are amazing and the other baked items were just as good! Keep up the good work - will be back every time I come up to Maine!

Stephen Arlaud

I come here mostly for the coconut cake that my wife says is the best there is in these here parts! Right now the bakery has online orders and curbside pickup or walk up orders taken in the blue tent to the right of the entrance and pickup on the sidewalk table. There is a line to the left side of the table for online order pickup and a line to the right of the table for the walk up orders taken at the tent to the right. I ordered my favorite type of cookie, shortbread. On the menu they have a sea salt shortbread and a raspberry shortbread, I went for the sea salt shortbread and when I went to try them I had 3 bagels in the bag. I checked the menu and I got the sea salt bagels. They are good and they are salty, probably most unique bagel I’ve had ! I am guessing they mixed up my order. I love shortbread cookies so I'll have to go again and see how there are. The coconut cake was nicely packaged so you can know your delicate treats will be well packaged.

Miranda Kozman

Holy moly, this bakery is outstanding. I almost don't want to rate this place and send you there because I want to keep all the desserts and delicious bread for myself! The rotating bread selection makes every day a tasty surprise.

Brittney Nicole

This place is amazing. Excellent coffee, tea, lunch sandwiches and baked goods. I’ve tried so much from this place and I can’t say enough about how incredible their food is. I always come by when I’m in the Portland area.

Mariah Foss

Bagels, cookies and coffee SO good! Love this spot! Always busy and so happy to see that! Look forward to this place everytime i visit!

Ronnie Borden

A delicious local treat but I wish there was more decadent items to choose from then cookies, muffins and bagels but everything i tasted was wonderful, my cappuccino was terrible to bad maybe there other drinks are better still it so nice to have a bakery of that class so close to home

Natalie Fetzer

The best bagels you will ever eat in your life.

Thomasin Franken

Really excellent artisan bakery. We stayed in Cape Elizabeth for a week on vacation and went to Scratch a million times. The bagels are outstanding, but so are the baked goods, especially the chocolate chip cookies and blueberry crumb pie we special ordered. There should be a place this special in every town.

Don LeBel

Best ever bagel! Is there really a need for sesame and plain? Just load the bins with sea salt bagels, please?! Love the coffee and wife loves the ginger, steamed milk & honey tea.

Cory Weckerle

Walked in to Scratch and was immediately hit with a myriad of wonderful smells. I opted for the seitan sandwich and was not disappointed. Food was prepared quick and the staff was courteous, will definitely be returning!

Andreas Apostolopoulos

Ex New Yorker here!! These are some delicious bagels, and with quite a following!! I got the Maine Sea Salt and loved it!!!

Mike Vecc

This neighborhood bakery is always the best. They have it all. Great food. Great pastries. Perfect small business quaint atmosphere. Super friendly staff. If you are in the neighborhood you should stop by. It is our favorite Maine bakery stop.

Sean Howard

Best bakery in South Portland area. On the way to the beach. Get there EARLY if you want bagels. We came in the morning for stunning, hot bagels and after the beach for amazing pizza, prepared salads and treats. Love it!

Megan

For the love of God if you haven't been here just go here and get anything. I really love their Apple spice molasses cookies and plain bagels. Well any bagel. And cake. Just all of it. You can't go wrong.

Holli Novelly

Is it odd that I want to plan another vacation to Portland just to be able to visit Scratch Baking? My husband and I stopped here last summer while in Portland and it was one of the best culinary experiences of our trip. Fantastic!!!

Travis Kroot

Everything you can find at Scratch is excellent. Bagels, breads, pizza, sandwiches, pastries, sweets. The coffee bar is great especially with their house made caramel! The number one bakery in all of Portland.

brittany w.

Hell yes. This is the best place in all of south Portland. The best salads. Outstanding sandwiches. Super friendly staff and obviously the best desserts this side of the Mississippi. Love.

stacey bellis

Great, huge, cinnamon rolls - perfect pastry, not to sweet. Very, quick, efficient Covid setup. Excellent bread, bagels - highly recommend.

Kerstin N.

The sea salt bagels are SO good! We appreciate the house-made vegan cream cheese too. :)

Nicole S

Incredible bagels, in the top two I've had in my life (and I've tried NYC, Long island and CT bagels!)

David Coco

Great bagels and cream cheese coffee

Hannah DeAngelis

incredible food, people, and place! Our family loves scratch!

Crystal Goodrich

Go on Wednesday to get a pop-tart scone. You won't be disappointed. I love the sandwiches and salads - soup in the winter (Monday- Saturday) and a lot of other sweet treats! A must visit in the Portland area.

Matthew mitton

It’s a great place to get stuff at just be there first before the good bagels are gone

Sabrina O'Donnell

My very favorite bakery! Favorite bagels, scones , pastries and salads! Love the folks who work there too. Very hospitable.

Josh Higham

Stopped in while visiting from out of town. Got a cookie and a slice of cake. Both were wonderful and affordable. They provide biodegradable disposable forks, which I think is a great touch!

William Brenner

Everything is good but I only make regular trips for the bagels. My regulars besides bagels are sea salt snackers (focaccia), shortbread, and the graham crackers.

Rafael Adams

Anyone who gives this place less than 5 stars is bonkers. Reviewing Scratch without having a bagel doesn't even make sense. People move to the Willard Beach neighborhood just to be close to Scratch. Or at least they should.

Nathaniel Pendleton

Great bread, great pastries, and really excellent bagels. There's a lot of tough competition in this town, but on a national level Scratch Baking really belongs in the 99th percentile.

Ken Moulton Jr.

Flat out amazing bakery! Great pastries, cookies and cakes, but the bagels are what you want here. Just get some bagels and a snack, and you'll be won over by Scratch.

Josh Lovejoy

Best bagels around Portland. Awesome (though not typical) breakfast sandwiches. Delicious pastries and coffee. One of my favorite places.

A Hattaway

Nice bakery with good bagels, wheat bread and sweet baked goods. I wish they would offer more types of breads, but the quality of their limited selection is outstanding.

donna goodrich

From the amazing bagels, the incredibly large portioned beet goat cheese salad, almond horn to die for & smiling personable staff, Scratch never disappoints Thank you a trip to Portland from Gorham NH always consists of a stop here 😊 …

Charlie Yao

Amazing bagels! Also had the monkey bread and it is on point! Would recommend visiting this local bakery if you are going on a trip to Portland!

Andrea Little

I am sad because I doubt I will ever eat a bagel of this quality ever again. We visited this bakery several times while on vacation in Portland. It is a special place with delicious baked goods.

Lynn Hansen

Fantastic bakery. The only thing I didn't care for was the bagel flavors - plain, sea salt, etc. They were pretty simple for my palate.

autumn rasmussen

The bagels are SO GOOD! Everything I had was delicious. Would definitely recommend.

Jeff Draper

Excellent coffe, cinnamon rolls the size of your head! Couldn't find one thing I didn't like!! Friendly staff a big bonus. Maybe crowded, but that says everyone wants to be there

Jordan Dover

Best place to grab a coffee before going to the dog beach. The pastries and bagels are why you should visit.

Andy JM

I love their breakfast sandwiches but I think they would be better if they were warm. Great looking bakery. Very clean and great service.

Allyson Redhunt

I go here every time I’m in the area and the only time I am disappointed is when they are out of bagels. I absolutely love scratch, employees are always wonderful, food is all always delicious.

William Ardisson

The best bagels! Worth the trip. Best bet is a weekday or early morning. Weekends can get very crowded mid morning with a line out the door.

Josh Carver

Best bagels, bread, and deserts around!

Josh Logan

Good coffee is always available, the Confections are out of this world. I recommend the Almond horseshoe... unless you're allergic to nuts.

Caitlin Sweet

Amazing bagels, best in portland area, but on Saturday morning you will have to wait or fight for them they sell out almost as they are baked.

Denis C

This place is something. Once you walk in, you feel the special atmosphere, crowd is nice. Food is just great and fresh. The interior is simple and beautiful. I love the tables outside. Such a chilled place. Recommend everyone to visit!

Mindy H

I LOVE these bagels - and don't miss out on the pimento cheese spread!

Rebecca Steinberg

The best bagles and so many delicious temptations! Only 1 downfall...I CAN'T stop buying the fresh baked chocolate chip cookies,haha!

Alex Guerrieri

Amazing bagels, fantastic baked goods, and plenty of free parking nearby. We only get here once a year, but we tell just about everyone we know to check it out.

John Levesque

The absolute best bagels in the world are made and sold here.

K Wind

One of my favorite places in Portland. Amazing bagels by far the best I've ever eaten and delicious sweet treats!

Josh Howe

Great local business that makes everything in house. The staff is friendly, the food is great and coffee is hot. Pick up some baked goods if you are in the area!

Bradford Clem

Best baguette I've had in New England. And I have searched all over. Plenty of other bread and goodies too. Nice Miche, yum

Rebecca Schwartz

Not really bagels but they are so good. If you want any you have to go soon after they open because they sell out super fast!

Michael G 3

Good if you want a bagel before 10am, if not, they will be sold out. Second best bet is 158 down the road near smcc.

Bonnee Pecquex

Love, love this place! Their bread and baked goods, sandwiches, and especially their bagels! Go early, they sell out quickly 😊 …

Great bakery. Wish we were closer to it. We're from NJ and read such great reviews we had to go there and it was worth it!

James Denz

Best bagels if have ever eaten. I also like their cookies and scones.

Kate Sellers

It's been over a week a d I'm still thinking about the amazing sandwich I had! I'd recommend scratch again and again!

Mindy Ramirez

Of course ... the bagels. The people are super friendly and the desserts are amazing. Wake up early! They run out of bagels.

Karlie Trefethen

Coconut cake is phenomenal!

Chris Saccardi

Bagels are better than average but not real bagels. Too light and made with sourdough.

Best bagel place around. Come there early or expect a line. Have great desserts as well.

Amanda Euber

I love going there when in town. Sea salt bagels must with the garlic herb cream cheese

Liam English

Amazing bagels! Worth getting up early! Nothing in my bagel experience matches them!

Scratch is a South Portland staple. If you don't visit Scratch while you are in the area, you are missing out. Get the bagels.

The bagels are the best in flavor and consistency and the crew is always friendly.
