My husband and I stopped in on a Saturday night because we wanted to listen to some.good live music, have some drinks, and a bite to eat. This place was just what we needed to have a fun date night. The food was on point, the staff were laid back and friendly, and we listened to Jay Larkin doing live music and he was great. I watched the staff carefully put together some great cocktails with all the fine details. We were comfortable sitting at the bar conversing with each other and others and we will definitely be back for some more live music and food.
Best place for drinks in Lewiston! Staff is AMAZING, we chatted for awhile with them and they were really funny.Food is top notch, drinks are even better. Planning a monthly outing with the gang!

Food was great and female server from the upstairs that came down to help the staff for the night was very nice. Problem I had was my friend and I were met at the door by Sean who without introduction asked as for our id's. Not a huge deal until multiple other customers walked in who weren't far off from our age (24) and weren't carded and also had a server or bartender greet them far before us, as we waited about 15 mins before speaking to anyone. When our order was taken we had the option to close out or have my card taken behind the bar till the end of meal (another thing I didn't see happen to anyone else). Never been to a restaurant that has asked for such a thing and the whole thing seemed out of place as if the staff thought we were less than everyone else or thought we were gonna run out on our bill when we werent acting or dressed out of the ordinary. I manage a restaurant and if I saw any of my staff do that we would be having a conversation.. super uncomfortable feeling.
Great food, tends to be fancy delicious pub fare, amazing craft cocktails, nice beer and wine selection. Service tends to be a bit on the slow side, kind of their niche though. Good things come to those who are patient. Ambiance is giving a sheik speakeasy vibe with a vintage meets modern decor.

Live music, geniune and experienced staff, and even more of an amazing crowd. 10/10 for the atmosphere! We went back our second time last night and were again amazed, to no surprise, with the service ❤️ We LOVE the twice baked fries with the garlic aioli for only $6 bucks! We also love the chicken tacos, so tasty and cooked to perfection. Being part of the sober community, I am very thankful for the non alcoholic options so that I can continue to have fun date nights!Dietary restrictions: I am lactose intolerant, and the staff genuinely cared. I was able to make a decision and eat with peace of mind ? Thank you!

Loved the food and drinks but when we went to pay they charged us $25 a drink! We were all mortified and we will never be back again. The place is clearly struggling.Would not recommend be careful..

10/10 great food joint never seen better drink menu love to stop by on Fridays after the free wine tasting on the other side of the block. Great venue area will definetly recommend literally everything on the menu.
If you're looking for great food in the area, drive south and go to Flux in Lisbon. Their chef has 100 times the talent. If you're looking for local food and beverages go to The Pub at Baxter Brewing in the Bates Mill Complex in Lewiston.Sonder and Dram is a drag. I recently lost my father, the morning after the Lewiston Shootings. I took a group of friends there - a military veteran, a teacher, and a nurse after burying my father up the road to order some french fries because after treating 30 of my family members to a celebration of life, I myself had not eaten a thing. The bartender made a rash decision and decided not to serve me food or beverages. After asking him where my drinks and food were, I was told I was "cut off." He had mistaken my, yes, very emotional state, for intoxication. Instead of taking care of your community and simply asking what had happened, or, can I just get your fries, the bartender determined his decision-making was righteous above all. Unfortunately, he was wrong.I'll not forgive him and I will not return to Sonder.In fact, I'll be sure to tell this story, over and over again.Bartenders used to be there for you on your worst day.This pretentious establishment should take a look in the mirror at who they hire to represent themselves and their community.
