This place lives up to its motto: Everything is fresh except the fries. We both had haddock sandwiches and an order of onion rings. The portions were plentiful. The onion rings were so hot, that we couldn't eat them at first. I return to try something else. I really hope they are able to maintain the quality of food that I experienced today.

I live in downtown Waldoboro and I am so glad to see this space finally being used well. The Zack shack foods we know and love are now in Waldoboro! The food is always fresh and always delicious. Sometimes it is hard to pick what to get from this restaurant because everything they offer they do well. The "never frozen" chicken nuggets are so good I almost always eat one or two from my kids' meals. I recently tried their breakfast sandwiches and I was pleasantly surprised. Good quality bacon and eggs, light and fluffy croissant. Five dollars is a fair price for how homemade the grab and go breakfast taste and feel. I always take my food to go, but they have plenty of seating in their clean dining room if you prefer to eat out rather than take out.

A smaller establishment on the main drag. I purchased the haddock lunch special, terribly affordable at $14.95, lots of fried, breaded haddock and French fries. The owner/male server mentioned to another customer that the only thing frozen are the fries. Everything made at Zack's is fresh. The haddock had a nicely seasoned breading, and the fries were evenly salted.

We decided to go for a ride during a warm January thaw day here in Maine to your restaurant. It took us a little over an hour to get there and I said, " It better be worth it ! " Well it was ! The double loaded cheeseburger was the best burger I have ever had in Maine ! Every bite was full of flavor ! The fries were awesome ! Just the right amount of crisp ! We will be back ! Thank you !
