“ Forbes' is a great restaurant on Wells, Me beach. Their burgers are delicious. The blend of meat is unlike anything else. Juicy and tasty. Their ice cream is rich and creamy but be warned: the servings are insanely huge. A medium is enough for 2 or 3 people. The staff is friendly and accommodating. Even though Forbes is a "beach" place where many get their food as takeaway, the quality of the food is great. They also offer seafood but the burgers are so good....I never get to the seafood. ”
