Owners’ Prince & Chef Rose Adams — a New York Restaurant School Graduate —  warmly invite you to join them in celebrating over forty years of Center Lovell Inn Restaurant dining tradition.   Only 14 miles from Fryeburg Maine, 45 minutes from North Conway, New Hampshire and 45 mile from Portland Maine. The old-world farmhouse dining room is very romantic, warm and cozy. The restaurant celebrates the bounty of nature, both land, sea and above, utilizing the freshest, locally source ingredients whenever possible.

In the summer please enjoy breakfast and dinner on the screen-in front porch  while taking in the magnificent sunset and mountain views.  In the winter cozy-up in our two hundred year old dining room surrounded by the Innkeeper’s art collection and a romantic wood burning fireplace, while listening to a mix of classical music intercepted by jazz and the blues.  Join us for dinner as award winning husband and wife team chef Rose & Prince Adams add their signature  je ne sais quoi to classic dishes and new-American fair, highlighting the best of Maine ingredients.

Dinner is by advanced reservations when available.
