The bowl I had was perfect, fresh, and just enough. The sandwich was equally delicious. We got some iced tea and sat back and enjoyed our meal. Great little area with snacks, if your on a ride and want something with you or you're taking it back to "camp", there is a great little selection. Highly recommmend!!

I got the egg and cheese and bacon sandwich which came with some awesome home fries that had kielbasa and were spiced perfectly. My daughter got the avocado toast. Everything was absolutely delicious and fresh. I got an Americano and she got a cappuccino. They have lots of indoor seating, a cool bar and patio seating outback which is where we sat overlooking the fields in the back and the sandwich range giving us room for the puppies. Highly recommend! Will be back.

It has been quite a few years since I have been here and it was my wife's first time visiting. We…read morehave both had quite a few beers from them though and enjoyed them. I actually would go as far as saying they are underrated in talks of all the breweries in Maine. They have always been a brewery with a vast amount of variety in their styles they brew. Such as IPAs, fruited sours, porters, stouts, lagers, and so many more. Enough variety you could visit and all your party could find their style. They also deserve a lot of credit for being one of the first if not the first in the state to jump on the non-alcoholic train for beers. This has expanded to basically be as varied in style as their usual beers now. I actually enjoyed their NA Mexican Lager and it was delicious and would be a great option for those looking for NA beers. My wife grabbed their NA seltzer and enjoyed it as well. Since that expansion they have also moved into adaptogen beverages as well as CBD/THC drinks too. They keep expanding their portfolio while also doing what they already do so well! Also for non beer drinkers they did have some bourbon and other spirits available as well. Really great options for all who show up! They don't offer food themselves besides some free popcorn, which was seasoned perfectly! Although if feeling like more food swing in next door to Weathervine and grab some food before to pair with your drink. The bartender was very friendly and apologized when my first choice kicked and from his interactions with other patrons it is clear Woodland Farms cares about their customers! A spot my wife and I will make sure to return to sooner rather than later. You should check it out as well!

SHUCH A HIDDEN GEM! Oh my gosh, this is our absolute favorite place. We were visiting from…read moreConnecticut and they had over 100 different beers and wine that you could take to go or drink there and they had an extensive draft list. The bartender was so sweet and friendly. He let you try anything on the travel list and would give you recommendations. It was so clever all the draft beers it would tell you how many miles from that exact bar this beer was brewed at so you kind of got a sense of the Portland and Maine areas. The location itself was very small and cozy with high top tables and a lounge area with couch and plus chair seating was super cozy on a winter day. They also had food and as a really funny item, they actually had a free egg station with many different toppings, and you could literally eat hard boiled eggs, which our group absolutely loved. 10/10 recommend!!

Forgot to write the review for this spot on Indie Bookstore Day. All of the places we visited were…read morea great stop but this was the top visit of our day. It's a great spot that has a good amount of books including highly anticipated releases and classics. They were also running a deal if you spent enough you could choose a book from their slightly used books which my wife got to grab a book from and it had some high quality barely used looking books on it! Was a great deal and the staff were all so friendly too. The big plus as you could guess from their name is besides being just a bookstore they also had a bar with a good craft beer tap list. Was a perfect stop for us to grab a beer before continuing our bookstore crawl! We are big fans of the bookstores who integrate of combine other businesses together. Who wouldn't love to grab their next book to read then without needing to leave can sit down and enjoy a beer while starting to read. A spot we will definitely return back to when we find ourselves in Portsmouth!

This place should just close down for bike week…read more The most miserable staff I've ever seen. They act like a sense of urgency isn't required in the food industry. Also act like they're on the brink of a breakdown when they're busy. Not a full bar, no knowledge of drinks besides beer. Weak beer list. Bland food. And the worst. Attitudes. Ever.

I went in on a Sunday afternoon and the place was not busy at all. I bellied up to the bar and was thrilled to see the local selection of draft beer. The bartender was more than friendly and we talked about all of the different beers they had on the menu. He offered samples of anything I wanted and so I opted for a flight. The beer was great, the atmosphere was amazing and the bartender fantastic. I had the "BReuben" for lunch and it was incredible! A bratwurst wrapped in pizza dough with sauerkraut and 1000 island dressing. SO GOOD! Fast forward to a week later. I brought the grandson there and we shared te Witches Warts (cheese curds) and they were awesome. The staff, as before, was more than friendly! I cannot recommend this place enough. Going back tonight!
