About Natalie's at Camden Harbour Inn
Natalie's is the restaurant inside Camden Harbour Inn on Bayview Street, a small luxury inn with 20 rooms and suites and a three-bedroom villa above Camden Harbor. Executive Chef Jose Ochoa builds the menus around what Maine fishing boats, farms and gardens bring in, mixing local flavors with international influences, and the dining room looks out over a harbor scattered with islands.
The menus change with the seasons. In 2026 the restaurant posted a Maine Summer dining menu, fall snack, dessert and cocktail menus, a Thanksgiving menu, a Feast of the Seven Fishes dinner on December 5 and a Christmas Day menu. You can reserve a table through the inn's website or by phone. For something lighter, the fireplace lounge serves small plates such as oysters and cheese, walk-in only.
The restaurant seats about 70 inside, or 120 with the outdoor seating, and a semi-private room holds up to 24 for rehearsal dinners and family gatherings, with menus the chef writes for each event. The inn lists itself as a Relais & Châteaux member and a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence winner. If you stay the night, check-in is at 3 p.m., check-out at 11 a.m., and some rooms need a two-night minimum.
Glendarragh Farm Lavender keeps its year-round shop at 22 Main Street in downtown Camden, and the farm itself in Appleton is about 25 minutes inland.
