Southern Spoon with Southern Food in South Brewer
And don't take my word for it, but it is delicious.
Sorry, when I opened the container my mind quickly went from taking a photo of this sandwich to diving in and tasting it. Three or Four bites later, ‘Oh, photo.’

Southern Spoon is located in South Brewer at 495 South Main Street. Lots of South. And there’s lots of southern charm. But it really is all about the food.
The couple moved from Biloxi, Mississippi to Brewer Maine last fall and began with a catering company, that mostly provided lunches for bigger companies in the Bangor – Brewer area. They also did a grab-and-go meal prep service where they prepared food for you to heat and serve at home.
Now they have opened as a restaurant. Lunch yesterday was a steady stream of Mainers, and transplanted Southerners streaming in and excitedly ordering mostly carry-out food. There are tables, a counter, and a couple of picnic tables out front for dining as well.
The way they determine their menu is interesting too.
It changes every week. Sunday afternoon they write the changes that are planned for the week on the menu chalkboard. Here is this week’s offering.
They are open Monday to Friday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. (except Tuesdays when they close at 2 p.m.)
The food is absolutely authentic Southern cuisine. Jambalaya. Gumbo. Shrimp and Grits. Etouffee. Muffulettas And more.
And the service is southern too. You’ll be called Sir or Ma’am in every sentence, with a Y’all thrown in every so often too.
Welcome Southern Spoon. Mississippi comes to Maine. "Well, Bless your heart"
