We just returned home from the perfect Sistersnacking weekend! To celebrate our oldest sister, Sara, who is getting married soon and also rang in her birthday this week, we headed to York, Maine, for her bachelorette party at Camp Yaffa! We stayed at a stunning Airbnb stocked with snacks (shocker!) and complete with its own speakeasy. The itinerary was perfectly curated with Swedish candy, crafting, hand rolls, beach walks, and a trip to the cute town of Kennebunkport. It was the best weekend for celebrating Sara and we’re sharing the itinerary because we think we cracked the perfect bachelorette trip plan!
As soon as we entered the great state of Maine, we immediately went to Footbridge Lobster for a lobster roll (obviously). We also scurried to the spot next door for some lobster stew to wash it all down. What better way to get the festivities started?!
Our 1st dinner was at Nick’s Steakhouse in York, and it was a phenomenal spot for a larger party. We arranged a set menu with them that featured their most popular appetizers, and then each friend was able to choose their own entrée. The options included filet, scallops, or chicken piccata. Of course we got all the classic steakhouse sides as well. It wasn’t just a bachelorette weekend, but also Sara’s birthday week, which meant that the celebrations did not stop after the main course. The Sandpiper Cake Shop whipped up a delicious raspberry and almond cake!
It is not a Sistersnacking trip without a round of Popup bagels! We started our day with a breakfast spread of bagels and schmear from the new Portland location. Per usual, these hit the spot!
Before heading out for the day to explore Kennebunkport, MadiSnacks made everyone matcha lattes. One of Sara’s friends, who could not make the celebration weekend, also surprised everyone with cold-pressed juices from Every Day Boost, which was so sweet.
Dock Square Coffee House was the perfect spot for a sweet and refreshing blueberry matcha after bopping and shopping through the adorable Kennebunkport.
We grabbed a delicious lunch at the Boathouse. Their lobster roll is delicious, but we have to say, the fish and chips are the move. You can’t go wrong here! It’s also so beautiful sitting on the water.
After the perfect day exploring in town, we came back to the house where KDM Kitchen completely took over the kitchen for the most special dinner of the weekend. We were WOW’d. With tuna and lobster fresh from SoPo Seafood and incredible cuts from Lobel’s of New York, the menu was a dream. We started with spicy tuna bites before Lambchop made her “Best of Both Worlds” lobster rolls straight from her cookbook. As if it couldn’t get better, it did, as Chef Keegan served up skirt steak, rib-eye, and his famous mac ‘n cheese. To end the night, he brought out a stunning olive oil cake, one of Sara’s all-time favorite desserts, making the entire dinner feel even more celebratory.
Our Saturday morning started with breakfast sandwiches from Nectar Cafe, plus the most unreal blueberry lattes that instantly became everyone’s obsession. They also carry pastries from Pie Girl Baking, which disappeared almost immediately and were such a hit with the whole group. Following breakfast, we took the most peaceful beach walk, which we definitely recommend!
It would not be Camp Yaffa without arts and crafts, obviously. Good Stock transformed the house’s speakeasy into the cutest creative setup with a patch bar and make-your-own keychain station, giving everyone the perfect excuse to slow down, customize the tote bags Sara got everyone, and spend the rest of the afternoon crafting together.
For lunch, the sisters surprised the bride by bringing in her favorite sushi spot from Portland. Yes, that meant the Mr. Tuna food truck pulled right up to the house. After working up an appetite from hours of crafting, everyone dove into their famous hand rolls, which managed to be both the coolest and most delicious lunch of the weekend. Check it out here.
And if that somehow wasn’t enough, The Sweetish Fish brought their candy cart up from Cape Cod so everyone could make their own custom bag of Swedish candy. The trio of sushi, candy, and crafts honestly felt like the perfect Camp Yaffa combination.
For the last night of the trip, we all headed to Stone’s Throw, a favorite spot right on the water in York. The table was filled with so many good bites. From the tenders and crispy tuna to the haddock tacos and lobster rolls, you genuinely could not order wrong. And to end the dinner on the perfect note, our cutie parents surprised everyone with a round of espresso martini shots for the table!
We ended the night dancing at the Front Porch, a dual piano bar in Ogunquit. A perfect way to hit the town! We always heard amazing things about this bar and are so glad we finally got to check it out.
Sunday came too fast, and suddenly the weekend was coming to a close. We grabbed caffeine here for our long travel day ahead.
Lastly, before we hit the road, we got a bite to eat from Stonewall Kitchen. Yes, that Stonewall Kitchen. The famous jam company is headquartered here and has a restaurant as well!

And no surprise, we had endless snacks! Check out our snack tour below:
The sisters absolutely killed it planning the most perfect bachelorette weekend. From the nonstop activities to all the incredible food, every detail made Sara feel so celebrated, loved, and special, and, most importantly, very well fed!
