Summer 2023

Hello friends!
It’s summertime!! This week the bakery is switching over to our high-season schedule, and the hubbub of shaking off the calm of winter is all rather exhilarating. There are a couple of NEW THINGS this year, which we are excited to share with you all!
Firstly, our schedule is now:
bread + pastry + coffee
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday 9AM-12PM
pizza
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday 4:30PM-8:00PM
As hinted at above, the barn and gardens are now open to visitors to come purchase and enjoy bread, pastry and COFFEE all four days we are baking: Wednesday through Saturday, 9AM-12PM. We are SO lucky to get coffee beans from our exceptional local roasters: batch coffee with 44 North, and espresso with Bucklyn. We will also be making special filled “pastry of the day” treats, which are only available here at the bakery, first come, first serve.
Our pizza reservation system is still currently the ol’ you-call-us style (find more information here if you’re unfamiliar), but as we get closer to July, be on the lookout for an announcement about our new online reservation system. We are planning to try out a rather normal table reservation system, and we are desperately hoping it can work for us and for you! Fingers crossed, think good thoughts, and stay tuned.
A couple of other updates about pizza nights: starting this week our organic soft serve ice cream in housemade waffle cones is BACK! And starting on June 20th, our dear friends Long Cove Sea Farm will be shucking oysters for our slurping pleasure ALL FOUR NIGHTS! Yes, that’s right, every single pizza night, all summer looooong!!! The oysters are available for anyone attending pizza night—no preorders needed.
And to let you in on a little local secret: if you aren’t able to score reservations some week this summer… you can always just show up and enjoy some drinks, oysters and ice cream, on our benches or BYOBlanket for the grass ;)
And YES! We will be open for pizza on July 4th.
Please send us an email over at tinderhearth@gmail.com if you have any questions. We are so excited to see you all this summer!
With a lot of love-
Lydia and Tim

Brunch has been a load of fun, folks! Saturdays 9-2, no reservations. And now serving ESPRESSO drinks! Wow!
Pizza Menus 12/20 + 12/22
Hey folks-
Here are the menus for the week. We’ve got seats in the barn if you want to eat here! Call us to reserve your pizza for takeout or dine-in: 207-326-8381. The phone is manned starting on Tuesday at 9AM, and you can order for either day starting then. If you happen to get sent to voicemail when you call, please just wait a few minutes and call back. Our line is not very busy this time of year, but it’s possible you might call when we’re talking with someone else.
Hope to see you this week!
We will be closed Saturday 12/24 to January 1/2.
Love to All—
Brunch Menus Decemeber 17th
Hello folks! Below are the menus for our brunch in the barn this weekend. It’s a bit of a pre-Hanukkah/solstice warm-you-up menu… check it out!! Good for a cold rainy day.
We’ll be closed for the next two Saturdays, as the bakery is taking a break 12/23-1/2. We’ll be doing a bigger bake with some special holiday loaves before we close on 12/21.

Breakfast and Lunch in the Barn
Hello friends and neighbors-
We are really excited to announce that Tinder Hearth is now open on Saturdays for breakfast and lunch! The barn has been proving a very cozy gathering place this season—the woodstove is able to heat the space most adequately. Over the last few Saturdays we have experimented with little menus for breakfast (9AM-12PM) and lunch (12PM-2PM), and have been having a lot of fun.
No reservations are necessary—please just come by! It hasn’t been overly busy, there’s no need to worry about crowds this time of year.
We know that a good breakfast or lunch date location can be hard to track down on the Peninsula, particularly in the cold season, and we are just so happy to share our sweet place. Menus change each week, but they’ve been sticking to the same general concept, and are simply packed with local produce and flavors.
Here’s a look at tomorrow’s menus:
Saturday 12/10/22 Breakfast Menu
Saturday 12/10/22 Lunch Menu
We hope to see you here!
Holiday Bake & Schedule
And another piece of important up-and-coming news: we are planning on being CLOSED 12/23-1/1.
We will be doing a final holiday bake (with some special loaves!!) on the solstice, Wednesday December 21st. We will have pizza on both Tuesday 12/20 and Thursday 12/22 before we close. To order pizza for either of those nights, please give us a call that week! And then we will be closed until the New Year.
If you would like to preorder bread for any of our bakes, please see our online preorder site, and read the instructions: tinderhearthstore.square.site.
Thank you so much for all of your support, we are truly grateful to get to feed all of you, all year long.
Best wishes this holiday season—
Lydia and the Tinder Hearth crew
