Happy’s Take Out
A beloved Maine landmark — back and better than ever. Great food, live music, and coastal hospitality right outside Camden Hills State Park.
Open June – October · 253 Belfast Rd, Camden ME · 900 ft from Camden Hills State Park
A Beloved Maine Tradition, Reimagined.
For nearly 60 years, this spot on Route 1 has been where Camden locals, travelers, campers, and park visitors stopped for a great meal. We’re bringing it back as Happy’s — honoring that legacy while creating something vibrant and new.
Melissa and Michael have deep roots in Maine and a genuine passion for community, food, and bringing people together. From sunrise bagels to late-night live music under the Maine summer sky, Happy’s is a place to eat, gather, and make memories.
We’re also proud partners of the Friends of Camden Hills State Park — offering a round-up option at checkout so every order helps give back to the park we all love.
