Families and friends have
been vacationing in Old Orchard Beach since the early 1600’s. Old Orchard was a
premier spot for entertainment. With the Casino Ballroom and the Palace
Ballroom hosting performances by nationally renowned bands. Today Old Orchard
Beach is still a famous hot spot for amusement park rides, restaurants, and of
course the beautiful beach.

It was around 1932 that
French Fries were introduced to Old Orchard Beach, Maine. People say you cannot
spend a summer in Maine and not have French fries. I think the same goes for
pizza at the beach and fried dough at the beach. Lisa’s Pizza located in the
heart of the popular strip in Old Orchard Beach originally opened in 1972,
thinking they would sell hot dogs and fries. Then in 1974 pizza was added. The
pizza dough is fresh home-made. Fresh cut French fries which make a really
delicious poutine. Yes, poutine in its original form from the Canadian province
of Quebec from back in the 1950’s. Poutine with cheese curds, topped with brown
gravy over our fresh cut French fries is a classic you can’t get enough of.
Besides French Fries, Pizza, and fried dough many different items have been
added to the menu over the years. Of course, some of the other items that have
been added over the years includes fresh Maine seafood. Come on by during the
spring, the fall and especially during the Maine warm summer months for some
great tasting beach food.
