“Usually I am very happy with the tavern burger. I will order it to go and sometimes warm it in the oven when I am ready to eat it. Tonights order was a bit of disappointment because there was a very small portion of fries on the side. I can eat at least twice what is in the photo...“
“The food looks delicious and that’s why we came here. However, when we arrived around 1:05 pm, the lady at the entrance was very rudy and told us we couldn’t dine in without being in the waiting list. It’s not what she said, it’s the way she said it.-Restaurant reached out to me in the nicest way and apologized for the situation about the host. I will be giving them a try soon as the food looks fantastic. Looking forward to it.“
“Of all the bakeries and coffee shops my husband and I tried on our trip to Portland, Tamdem was our favorite! The Americano was delicious and the salted coconut maple scone was one of the best I've ever had with the perfect crunchy texture on the outside and soft inside. I also tried the blood orange scone, which tasted a bit pithy to me. There was a line at 11:00 on a Saturday, but it moved quickly and there was plenty of seating outside.“
“Great brewery! We stopped in on the way to the airport. A lot of IPAs and hoppy beers (not our thing) but we still found yummy beers. Taproom is outside in a heated tent and they have little tent/cubbies with their own heaters. I would love to drink beers here on a random day when it is dumping outside.Lots of merch. Good Food truck. Kids loved grilled cheese, burger. Hook/string game outside. Super friendly staff at the bar and merch area.Would love to come back on our next trip to Maine!“
“Foundation Brewing is a fantastic delight. We had the opportunity to meet one of the four owners tonight and she was so friendly. Tina runs the tasting room, if you see her while you're enjoying the beer or pizza... make sure to ask her some questions about her hometown (Detroit, MI) or how Foundation Brewing came to be a local micro-brew.The pizza is a light, fluffy and crunchy exploration in all the best ways you could imagine. I think this brewery is getting the absolute most out of what space they have to work with and their staff is so friendly/helpful/patient. I'm committing myself to returning over and over and being (hopefully) a regular :)10/10 would recommend to anybody in and around the Portland/Westbrook city line.“
“This was the final spot on our trip before we separated from our Boston friends after an awesome October weekend and they headed home. So glad this could be the last experience together, as it was a relaxing, inviting bar experience. The bartender/owner was super chill and the beers/cocktails we tried were all excellent. The vibes were perfect - had a great time.“
“A lovely vibrant farm just 10 minutes from the maine mall. Cozy with delicious sandwiches, Mac n cheese, ice cream, and other goodies at very reasonable prices. The farm includes an assortment of animals including cows, sheep, emus, deer, chickens, deer, llama, pigs, and more! The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about animal husbandry as well. An absolute gem and a must stop on your way through greater portland.“
“Delish! Grab a seat at the bar or at one of the tables and you won't be disappointed. The waitstaff is friendly and moves people through the restaurant in a timely fashion. The food is farm fresh and savory. Sure to delight your crowd young or old. Don't be alarmed by the line out the door as it is one of the only (and best) breakfast stops in the area.“
“OMG dog friendly;!!!!!!!! I had the pulled pork and it was very. Tasty but needed a little more sauce and more of the onions. Don't forget the delicious Cole slaw. Don't get me wrong we will be back for more food and DARK BEER!!!!!“
“I have always loved the Bite Into Maine food truck at the light house. I was so excited to go to this location! I tried the 3 flavors mini lobster rolls this time! Yummy and fresh as always!! The staff were nice and friendly! I ordered online and pick up in store. The process was smooth and easy!“
“We received a recommendation from a local to stop by and check this place out. Great stop in a sea of breweries that are all right next to each other. The bartender was very helpful with picking from the large list of option with each new pour being great! The vibe was really chill and if we lived a little closer I know that this would be a spot on our weekly brew tour. Like I mentioned this craft house is in a spot with a handful of other breweries. Make sure that you take time to visit from IPAs to Sours you will not leave disappointed.“
“Hidden gem alert in So Portland! Kelly's is in the back corner of a strip mall, but is an amazing place for sandwiches, salads, and sweets! The salads are huge and filling. I had the chef salad which had rolls of turkey, ham, provolone cheese, and an egg along with fresh vegetables. I could only eat half and had to stop. Don't miss the sweets! Best molasses cookie I have had- crispy edge, buttery taste, and big enough to share (but why would you want to??) Kelly's also does breakfast sandwiches, and daily specials. Their only webpage is their Facebook page which will list the daily specials. Thursdays are apparently also flatbread day, and there were several freshly made flatbreads available for purchase. The cooler stocks take home food and quick salads/sandwiches with no wait. Highly recommend Kelly's for a yummy lunch!“
“This was my first visit . It's a nice clean restaurant and seafood market that doesn't smell like one. The employees are friendly and helpful . Before visiting I did call because I was unsure if they had a place to eat in . My guest had coffee and they said it was great ! We both ordered combination plates of haddock and scallops with onion rings . We were served ice water when we were sat. That was nice . They had premium quality napkins and plastic cutlery . The haddock was amazing ! Along with the onion rings ! Perfect ! The scallops were huge ! But very wet so they were not crispy . I asked . So I was hoping to get bacon wrapped scallops or a lobster dinner which was not on the menu . They do sell live lobsters in tanks . Although the breading didn't have much flavor the oil they used tasted very clean . No after taste . We ordered a cup of seafood chowder to try but we're too full. Would liked to have seen more onion rings for the up charge as they were delish ! I will be back for sure ! Next time I'll try the steamed lobster dinner or the Maine man lobster roll ! Blueberry habanero sauce ! Yum ! Ps I'd prefer tartar sauce in individual cups instead of large squeeze bottles used over and over. On table room temp then in fridge then out and in . Mayo spoils . That would probably be the biggest complaint and other places do it as well. My guest said the pickles were good !“
“Another great brewery in Portland. They don't have flights which I don't love but you can get small pours of all their beers. They have some wine options as well if you aren't into beer. They serve some snacks but typically have a food truck on site. I'm not a huge beer fan but when they have a sour I typically get it. Large inside and outside seating area, which is great for big groups. They also have corn hole. A fun brewery to stop at, with lots of parking out back as well.“

Rum is any spirit made from a sugar cane plant which makes is very versatile. Three of Strong uses all organic ingredients that include sugar cane, molasses, slow fermenting yeast and locally sourced water. They do not use any artificial flavors or colors.I enjoyed the tour and of the distillery and learned about the process for making rum.After their tasting session, I found their spiced rum to be one of the best I have ever had. It was smooth and the delivered very flavorful finish when drinking it straight.If you are in Portland, ME, make sure you stop in or visit by going on the “Best of Portland Brewery and Spirits Bus” Tour.“
“Wow. This place is absolutely wonderful. Went here for the first time ever on a date with my boyfriend. The food was so delicious and seasoned to perfection. The dessert we got was divine and the service was excellent. This is a great place to go on a little fancy dinner with your partner or to have a celebratory dinner. And the drinks are made so delicious.We got lucky and actually had a table available Saturday night, but it was packed for the most part. 11/10 will go here again.“
“Got some takeout from here last night. Ordered a variety of dishes to see how things tasted and to offer my 2 teen kids a few options. It was all fantastic! Ordered the chicken shawarma and beef shawarma sandwiches, gyro sandwich, lamb shank plate, beef shawarma salad, and baklava. They included a bowl of smooth tasty lentil curry on the house. I tasted everything. It was all fantastic. I was particularly surprised on how good the lamb shank was and the large portion they gave, as well as how many tomatoes they put in the salad. The lamb shank was on the bone,not shredded. All of the vegetables were fresh and crisp. Everything well seasoned. Their prices are really fair in my opinion. I’m going back soon. I have to try their falafel and hummus.“
“The jams! You can reel me in with good music and you did...plus amazing beers! Amazing place to hang out, relax and they have food/snacks too. We did a flight to check out what they had to offer, and they did not disappoint! Great place to come to and they have some scheduler entertainment as well! Great service and staff who will recommend some great beers!“
“We bought soft shell medium live lobsters, they were 11.99 a pound today. They were extremely lively, fresh and delicious. Flesh was pretty firm and filled within the shells. The service staff was extremely helpful and explained size and hard shell vs soft shell to us. The shop was clean“
“Bird and Co recently catered a private event for us and they absolutely crushed it. They were so helpful, kind, patient, communicative, timely and prepared. Everyone loved the food and it was both high quality and affordable. We can’t thank them enough and we would highly recommend them to cater any event.Dietary restrictions: They accommodated us with gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options.“
“Just found out about these guys and I'm super bummed to be seeing it go! I hope they still make their drinks in some way for people to buy because there's nothing quite like that around. Delicious and intriguing flavors, and plenty for those who don't drink alcohol as well.“
“A few days ago, my teenage son and I ate at Docks Seafood for a late lunch. We were thoroughly pleased with our entire experience and had to share!I ordered the haddock sandwich and fries. Yum! Yum! My son ordered the haddock nuggets and fries. We both loved our meals. Everything came out fresh, flavorful and hot. I ate every single thing on my plate. The piece of haddock was huge and served on a lightly toasted bun. It was pure bliss. Their homemade tarter sauce goes perfectly with their seafood. I just couldn't stop eating their french fries. They were perfectly salted.My son loved his haddock nuggets. It's always great to see him eat food that he loves. Our waitress was awesome and she was heavily rewarded for all her awesomeness.We can't wait to go back to Docks Seafood. We left with a baked item for dessert because we were too full from our meal to eat anymore. It was a whoopie pie. Soooo good!Also, the owner came to our table to talk to us and he was super sweet. ?Kid-friendliness: My two kiddos (ages 12 and 15) love the menu options. There's something for everyone.“
“Fantastic spot. Check their Instagram for soccer matches they’re showing because google has them opening in the afternoon, but depending on the matches they’ll open earlier to show them.Great vibes with an awesome outdoor space that’s large and a fun atmospheric shed type viewing space with tvs and volume on.“
“This was a small tasting room compared to most other breweries I’ve visited in the past. However, this is where size really doesn’t matter as it boils down to the potency and flavor of their brews. I have never heard of them previously (also did not even know they were the first NE craft brewery) but noticed patrons walking in and out from the other side of the street. I asked a local friend that I was with and he simply told me to go get a flight in, which I did not hesitate in the least to do.Definitely was worth checking out when in the area. There were a bunch of locals hanging out in there with various brews in their hands. They were obviously proud of the place and welcomed me in as I ordered two flights to taste most of what they had to offer. $20 to taste 8 brews with lovely locals to chat with? Absolutely worth it.Good stuff. Definitely stop by if you’re traveling through.“
“Second time here and the food was as amazing as it was the first time. 4 stars for service bc you have to wait on yourself. Once you order (from the pretty rude) dude behind the counter, you pick up your food and drink, bus and clean your table. Definitely not a fan of this concept especially when paying over $20 for entree. Food and atmosphere spectacular so I'll come back. Note to rudedude: Hey, in the hospitality business, you need to be respectful and smile at the very least.“
“Amazing staff!!!! The staff was very helpful and let us try caviar that was so good!!! We are also culinary students and really appreciated the information they shared about caviar. Honesty will have to be back again the staff is very knowledgeable and helpful keep it up guys!!“
“Great local brewery in Portland, love the friendly neighborhood feel here. Lots of open seating inside and out. Smaller bar inside with picnic tables. On nice days, the side wall opens up for more seating outside. Lot's of food trucks all lined up outside when we were there. Great options. Nice variety of beers on draft, they have flights available. I tried there machine, evergreen IPA and gold leaf. Very tasty and flavorful.“
“We went to a few locations and every single one was great. We grabbed the pumpkin latte drink that has brown sugar in it as well and it was amazing! We also ordered some sandwiches and they were nice and warm. The staff was always friendly and patient since we were on vacation and had never been to one before. The lines could be long but they were quick!“
“Lib’s is a longtime favorite and it’s easy to see why! There are hard and soft serve ice cream options, and also special treats. I’d recommend getting an Arctic Blast.They do prefer you pay in cash, but card or Venmo is also accepted. I’d check at the counter.“
“Place has top of line food! I'm probably going to at least try everything once. Even tho I have no clue what half of the stuff on the menu is?? But I'm gonna try it! Expensive tho. Takes a little bit of the taste away once you get the bill. But worth it if you wanna treat yourself! Lord know I do!“
Ice Cream Shop • $
“They only had one lady working so it took quite a long while to get the ice cream and because she was alone she didn’t have time to update the available flavors. The ice cream tastes good but the spoons are very bendy and I can’t lift my ice cream out of the cup.Hi replying to the reply; I went to beals on veranda st. There was only one girl working and she even apologized as she was the only one who was working. She was nice but definitely the only person working around 5:30 when I went.“
“The service is always super friendly. The ice cream is delicious and serving sizes are HUGE! It can be a cluster turning back out onto 302 but the ice cream is so worth it. Definitely get their waffle cones dipped in chocolate with Sprinkles. The seating is good and the grass area is helpful when bringing little ones that need to get some energy out.“
