Great atmosphere in a low-key, stylish dining room. Intimate and not pretentious. Great service, portions and tempo. Would highly recommend for upscale pub experience.

We really enjoyed our entrees and drinks at the Burleigh. The stuffed haddock was delicious as were the short ribs. The service was attentive and personable. The ambiance also provided for a very pleasant dining experience in a very snow-covered and cold Kennebunkport.
