Bolley’s Famous Franks, located at 96 College Avenue in Waterville, is NOW OPEN! This iconic brick-sided building has brought joy and comfort to generations. Patrons of all ages enjoy the experience of opening the heavy glass door and being greeted with the scent of hotdogs, onions and salt pork cooking on the grill, and the sweet smell of crinkle cut fries wafting in the air. A single, socially distanced line makes its way to the order desk. Customers blurt out their
the side door and back to your car. Many eat their meal right there in the parking lot. “That’s the easy part!” new owners Mark and Kim Watson said while showing me the totally renovated behind the
“Back Room Crew” comes ready to work! “Green Thumb Farms” of Fryeburg provides the 50 lb. bags of Maine potatoes that Bolley’s uses to make their
crinkle fries. They use about a ½ ton of potatoes a week! Before use, Mark had to repair the antique crinkle cut-cutter which was installed at Bolley’s in 1962. The crew chunks up the potatoes and buckets of fries are made each day. Preparing the salt pork is time consuming, too. Together both crews work to create the perfect “Bolley’s Famous Franks”.
Mark and Kim are grateful for the outpouring of support from patrons who have welcomed this treasured landmark back to life. They appreciate all the stories, too. Generations have grown up enjoying Kirschner natural casing hotdogs grilled in peanut oil and topped your way.
Bolley’s gift cards and t-shirts are now available. What a nostalgic Christmas gift to share with your family and friends! A drive to Bolley’s Famous Franks on College Avenue in Waterville, Tuesday–Friday 10:30 AM – 5:30 PM and Saturday 10:30 AM – 3:30 PM, will bring a smile to your face and a taste of comfort to your soul.
Mark , Kim, Simon, Tashia, Taylor, Joey, Emma, Jordyn and Kaylee welcome you to Bolley’s!

Missing “The Bird”by Clare Milton
“One o’clock at ‘The Bird,’” I say to my friend, Duane Wheeler, as he exits the front steps of his sister’s house late Friday evening. We’ve enjoyed our Friday pizza night from Rita’s and are looking forward to our once a week breakfast out at The Early Bird in Oakland. I call it “The Bird” as I never arrive early!
ALL I WANT is to wake up on Saturday morning with anticipation of good food, hot coffee and friendly
I don’t want to nag, so I adjourn to my “Bikini Blue” Jeep Renegade and listen to “The Beatles” channel and chill. I’m anxiously anticipating hearing the hum of our neighbors chattering and laughing while savoring their meal.
shout hello. We see friends from across the room and send a greeting their way. It’s about 1:15 PM or so and they close at 2:00 PM. Today we are lucky that Gerry will be our server. She is a seasoned waitress usually wearing fun socks or bobbling headbands just to brighten our day. She gives us a quick-witted remark and takes our order. Even though the end of her day is in sight, she and all of “The Girls” give their full attention to those late diners.
After taking my friends’ orders, her eyes turn to me. “Are you having your usual?” she asks. “Yes,” I say happily. My usual is a 3-egg omelet, browned, with ham, mozzarella, tomatoes, and sautéed mushrooms. I feel relieved that my order is in and my favorite breakfast is forthcoming. I have my trusty bottle of Mrs. Dash that I keep in the door of my Jeep to add the perfect touch to my meal. Yes, I do get laughed at for carrying it with me, but I don’t care.
hot coffee and realize all is well with the world! Seems simple doesn’t it? The beginning of an awesome weekend! THAT’S ALL I WANT! Yet, since the
beginning of March, this experience has been out of reach. Every week I check their status. Every week I’m increasingly disappointed! Another week to remind us life is not normal! We worry about all of the older patrons who have relied on The Early Bird for their daily food and human contact. Local restaurants provide many services to our local communities. Providing joy and well-care checks on those of us that might be alone or sick.
It relieves anxiety knowing some things stay the same. The faces and daily specials run steady. THAT’S ALL I WANT!
Hope will come that one Saturday morning soon, I can put on my Saturday shirt, remind Lynda that it’s time to go, meet Duane (who usually beats us there) and open that familiar door to experience a slice of normalcy we so truly need!
