I’ve gotten a real good burger at the A1 diner in Gardiner—one of the best I’ve had at a restaurant, in fact. It’s not too far out of the way if you’re driving in between Waterville and Freeport.

I’ve also had good burgers at Whipper’s in Augusta, right off of Cony Circle. Also just a minor detour if you’re en route from Waterville to Freeport.

A1 Diner has the most disgusting kitchen I've ever had the misfortune to work in. Hood vents covered in grease and dust so think I could swear I saw fungus growing on it. Fryer oil that hadn't been replaced for a month. A thick coating of dust over everything. Nothing in the prep cooler labeled or dated. A pile of dirty rags in the corner that had been there for a week. No gloves, no hats, no nothing out back.

I refuse to ever step foot in there and I still don't know how that guy still is open with the multitude of health code violations there.
