The manager who was working today was so rude to not only us but her fellow employees as well. She told us she knew what she gave us but if she did she would have known she got everything wrong. Instead of offering a refund she yelled at someone to “just give them some cookies”. She was very unprofessional.
Always a fun place for the family to go. Very reasonable priced and the food is good with lots of trational chooses to choose from. Service is friendly as well and quick to get meals out. Lots of good desert options as well to choose from.

Please read all.I love Governors Restaurant in Lewiston, been going there for over 20 years, but after today's lunch I may not be back. Just shy of $90.00 with tip and the meal was terrible. 3 of us got grilled cheese sandwiches (looked like Kraft singles) not real cheese, the cheese wasn' t even melted, looked as if the bread was just flipped to brown on the grill. The fries were great, but the famous onion rings were almost a full plate of fried onion middles, looked like I ordered chicken nuggets or haddock bites. I was pleased to see a nice new menu with gluten free and vegetarian options. And even with the disappointment of the meal, their desserts never disappoint. The staff was kind and attentive. But when we were seated there was visible food under our table. I am not writing this to deter people from visiting, like I stated before I have loved Governors for years. I am writing this as a reminder to Governors that many families these days don't have a lot of extras, but like to have a special day or night out with their family. Every patron should get your best. This lunch was such a disappointment and such a terrible waste of our money.

The food? Delicious. The service? Amazing.Patrick himself is a 5 star. He was incredibly friendly and hilarious.As for the actual diner. It's a small-town diner vibe with a cute little train and a beautiful fish tank.
Service was mediocre, atmosphere was poor, food was bland, and without character.Not the Governor's from my youth. Felt very let down because I move back home and they just aren't the same anymore. Heck just look at the

My friend and I enjoyed having a treat there. We had ice cream Sundays. They were really good. They were a really good size too. I was very happy that the train was turned off after a bit. It was a pain because it made a lot of noise when it came close to us. I still recommend going there.Wheelchair accessibility: There are no steps to get in. There are a couple of doors to open. There is enough room to move around.
