Zach. The host. I could hear myself breath in the bar- no music and so so quiet. This guy overheard me and my friends and tried to get music or sports to play on the speakers. He 100% didn't need to but he went out of his way. Other than Zach- the service was quick, drinks cold and food tasty. .... But go to see Zach... Oh, and the half priced apps and happy hour. Like. Come on!? read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - American Near Me - Thomaston, Maine

See all

Door Dashed an order from there, but they did not have the water I ordered. Rather than telling me (and rather than adjusting the bill), they relief on the Dasher to tell me - after he delivered and left. Had to navigate Door Dash app to get refund... No way task, but Door Dash was very accommodating and quickly refunded. Perhaps the driver just missed it, but I doubt it. Food that was delivered was good - just wildly poor communication. read more

Salad was so over dressed could not eat! Will not return. This is a place I would skip.

All was good except the fact that my order of chicken fingers was more breading than chicken meat. It really was a chore to finish most of it. read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - Pasta with broccoli - American Near Me - Thomaston, Maine

Place was dirty. The bathroom was dirty. The server behind the bar really didn't care about making sure we are happy food came out cold had to wait to get another drink multiple times it's just not a really good place to go. I used to be really good. We used to hang out there a lot not anymore. read more

The waitress was extremely kind and helpful. The ambience was nostalgic and homey feeling. I love that Applebees celebrates their local communities within the restaurant. They did begin vacuuming around the table as we got there which was a little mood killing. The food was always fantastic tho. Fantastically mid food but you get what you came for. The 50cent wings were kind of a scam. read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - Great ambience! - American Near Me - Thomaston, Maine

Now, I don't really set the bar high when it comes to Applebees. We know what we're getting. I really don't like going there. They skimp on fries. This is a source of stress for me. Come on , how much do fries really cost. This past time was the worst. My wife and I sat at the bar and Brooks was a good bartender. We had the combo appetizer. It was decent. I ordered the quesadilla burger with the $1 wings. The wings were rock hard and dry. My burger was good. Then I took a bite and I couldn't bite through. They left the parchment paper on the cheese and put it on my burger . Brooks took the burger off my bill. We ordered triple chocolate dessert to take home. When my wife went to eat the dessert she opened the "chocolate sauce." To pour it onto the cake...it was barbecue sauce not chocolate sauce! WTF! If you can't knock it out of the park every time...close. You have struck out time and time again. I'm an expert in F&B. Step it up! read more

Awesome experience! My family and I were vacationing in Waldoboro and decided to do Applebees catering for everyone. We ordered 90 boneless wings, mashed potatoes, green beans, 2 salads, some fried cheese bites and drinks. We had leftovers for days! Everything was delicious even after reheating it the next day. The staff was so nice we had 2 ladies, one who I assume was the manager come out and even helped put the bags in our vehicle. The entire meal was almost $130 but that was to be expected for such a large order especially with the alcohol. If you're hosting a party, get catering from this location you won't regret it. read more

Amazing people. The manager gave us a 10% off when you stay at the Hampton Inn hotel across the street. We were visiting from MA for work and was grabbing a quick bite late at night. Service was wonderful. Food was amazing. I had to leave a review to thank their staff! read more

Applebee's Grill + Bar - Strawberry Margarita, chicken wonton tacos and French onion soup - American Near Me - Thomaston, Maine

I don't usually leave negative reviews but I just have to warn you. This is the grossest Applebee's I've ever been to. Ate here twice to give it another chance and what a waste of time and money, not to mention the stomach pains. Don't do it. read more

Excellent service and food was perfect! We have been traveling all day and what a wonderful way to end a long day with fabulous drinks, yummy food & a super friendly waitress. Kudos to Reagon. read more

This was actually a pretty good lunch! I don't frequent chains too often, but out and about holiday shopping and my daughter wanted to go. Spinach artichoke app was good, I had the meatball app and the goddess salad, all pretty good! read more

I've been going to this Applebees for nearly three years now and the food and service is terrific. Try the 12 oz Ribeye-- it's worth it if you love steak like I do. The Bourbon Street Chicken is your phenomenal. read more

It's been five years since I've eaten at applebees. Reason being is the food everytime is terrible. Today I thought I would give it another chance and take my family for lunch. I ordered the steak and asked for medium well, it came back as well done and bathed in salt. It was probably the worst steak I've ever had. To top it off the broccoli was old and believe that I even spotted mold on it. Not sure what steamed mold looks like but I think that I know now. The only saving grace was the waitress was kind and the only reason I gave two stars. Never in my life I will ever step foot in there ever again. read more

My mom, Andy, Jen, Mat with one t and I came here for dinner before the movies at Flagship. It's a rural Applebee's so instantly better than those around the Boston area, owing to it's newness and the work ethic of the Maine people. The food was just alright, but not much worse than you'd expect at a place that probably has brightly colored placards in the kitchen telling ITT Tech grads how to cook everything. The one food note was that the ribs were "not as good as you'd get from Chili's" according to both Jen and Andy. Odd that the waitresses all seem to carry drinks under their boobs and armpits instead of using drink trays, um, what? Points for also getting in and out in time to get to the movie. read more

I got the bourbon street chicken and shrimp with mexican rice. And i gotta say it wasn't great in fact it wasn't even good. The rice was so dry it was like choking down grass seed. I don't really know how rice can be that bad but it was. The chicken was pretty dry also. It was borderline jerky, no tenderness to it at all. I've eaten at plenty of Applebee's before and this was by far the worst one i've ever been to. read more

Worst dinner experience. Husband and me and our 2 sons stopped for dinner around 9 pm on a very slow night. Only 2-3 other tables eating when we arrived. Service was very slow and food was "ok." I ordered a steak dinner medium rare and when it was finally delivered, it was well done. Had to wait another 15-20 minutes before waitress came back to the dining room to ask her to make a new steak. she was very friendly about it. When the new steak came, it was cooked properly, but the steak was so gristly and tough it was inedible. Didn't both to send this one back as everyone else had finished eating by this time and I really didn't think the 3rd time would be a charm. Husband also ordered a steak and his was also over cooked but he ate it anyway. Son 1 ordered the American standard burger. from the picture, it looked like it was loaded with yummy toppings. When he got it, it only had cheese so he asked the waitress what happened to the toppings. Apparently this location doesn't make it as it's portrayed - they put all the toppings mixed in with the meat and then grill it. Didn't look as exciting, but son still enjoyed it. Son 2 ordered the 3 cheese chicken penne. the slice of chicken was thin and small and there was hardly any cheese so the dish was very dry. Also, he's a very thin 19 yo and the proportion was more like an appetizer, so he ended up hungry and reaching for everyone else' food. Worst Applebee's we've ever been to. The waitress was nice, that's the only good thing I have to say about this place. read more

So I haven't been to this Applebee's in about 3 years until yesterday. As we came in the wait wasn't too bad because they weren't that busy.. but as we sat down, the server took over 10 minutes to order our drink. When we ordered the appetizer, that alone took 25 min to come and the food came 5 min later after the appetizer... Our server was really nice and attentive, but the food was so bland... my bacon burger was very bland... like they didn't know how to add salt or pepper on it... the piece of lettuce that was on it had to be the smallest piece of lettuce I've ever seen, bacon was undercooked... So my meal was wasted... My niece has chicken tenders and strawberries... well those 3 tenders looked as dry as they could be, came with no dipping sauce, the strawberries were frozen previously and looked super old... my sister had the unlimited shrimp with fries... I can't judge that because I don't like shrimp, but she didn't even eat one because it was also bland... so overall I'm very disappointed with the food at Applebee's and I'll never go back there. read more

We just got an "Applebees" here in Rockland, and the house steak is very good for the money. (I've had it twice). Watch the bar tab though, at $5.00 a beer, it's a little steep for a Sam Adams. read more

Lots of noise and aggravation. Particularly aggravating when they decide to clean the restaurant with brooms while you are eating, spreading dirt and dust in the air. Serious mismanagement. Don't dare look in kitchen. If you want to see Maine natives in all their glory this is the place for finger lickin, elbows on tables, hats on heads, unshaven, unbarbered, chewing with mouth open, drunken yelling and shrieking carrying on. It's better than going to the zoo. read more

Well, I should have checked the yelp ratings before I experienced the same. What a jacked up meal! I order a beer off the menu. I was informed they do not have it. I ordered a green Goddess salad. I was informed the kitchen was out of iceberg lettuce. Really? I don't think my refrigerator has ever run out of iceberg lettuce in over 10 years. I order a quesadilla burger with some blue cheese dressing and hot wing sauce on the side for my fries. Of course it shows up with neither and my french fries are now cold before anybody comes to check on us. My girl and her friend both order salads. The tortilla strips on both salads are so stale that they can literally wrap them around their fingers. The waitress, when informed of the stale tortilla strips has a reaction like she has seen this before and immediately calls her manager, Kevin. Kevin shows up and does the perfunctory "oh what is the problem spiel." He offers to take the salads off our bill which nobody wants to re-order for fears of what may occur in the kitchen. He offers to get me a beer, which my glass has been empty for several minutes. He offers to get me some warm french fries with the condiments I requested. Never once did he apologize. When he brought out our check, I asked him if they trained him in manager school to not apologize. He said he was just trying to make things right. I explained that a simple apology would've gone a long way. When I visit a chain restaurant I expect a consistent quality. Unfortunately, the consistent quality at Applebee's, regardless of where in the United States I choose as of late, has become consistently substandard. This particular location, being the flag bearer for Poor quality and Poor service. If it had not been so late I would have patronized one of the local family run establishments. read more

The food is putrid. It has been gross every time. Since it opened, up until the end of 2015. In all seriousness, don't make yourself sick, stay away. Unfortunately, this location may be managed by folks with views about cleanliness which are not appropriate for the food service industry read more

The worst place I've ever been. They wouldn't serve us even though we were relatively sober. read more

Ate there last Sunday night. What a hot mess. Understaffed, stressed out and rude server, meal mixed up order, food cold, could go on, but it's too much effort for a disastrous meal. read more

I don't know what the food critic had to say about this, but it's far better than just two stars. I give it a lot more than that! I think personally, that it's a lot more than your typical Bar and Grill. So how about their food, okay? It's delicious, the setting inside is beautiful, even their Waiters were both helpful and friendly, too! There is no doubt it is the best restaurant in Maine. 'Nuff said! read more

Awful place. It has overpriced bland food and staff that forget about you while you wait for service. I used the bathroom to find swears written above the urinals and on the walls plus degrading comments about women on the walls. The pictures and words were all about so staff and management do not care what their patrons including kids see. read more

Terrible service. Terrible management. Just don't go here. Save yourself the trouble.

Good for a quick meal, cheap, decent service. Best to go for half priced apps and drinks. This is the only time I feel the quality matches the price you pay. read more

Most awful place you could imagine. Rude, rude, rude. Bug in my food. They didn't care.

Very good ,the 2 for 24 was a deal , had spinach appetizer ,I had ribs wife had mac and cheese both were very good .can't beat the price.

I got the trio appetizer sampler with the buffalo boneless wings, spinach and artichoke dip, and the steak quesadila towers. Chicken was great. Towers were great. Dip was great, but the chips had so much salt on them I had to try to wipe them off with my finger and they were still too salty. I swear I gained 10lbs of water weight from all the salt!! Our waitress was nice. My husband got the riblettes which he always gets and he loves them. Other than the salt it was a good experience. read more

Super slow!!! Sat down and had our drink and food orders taken and then we never saw Mary again. Her trainee, Vaughn, was very nice though. The food took forever to come out! All of the employees around the bar just stood around and talked with each other. Employees were clearly chatting in the back and our drinks were empty the entire time. When they finally came out you could tell it was just to save their butts. Mary made Vaughn do everything even though she was our server. I've been to many Applebee's and I've never had service this bad. It was just rude. read more

I waited for 10 minutes for a table of 4 not bad considering how busy it was. When we ordered only have the table got their appetizers before their meal they actual forgot to put the other 2 appetizers in to be ordered. Also waited on a root beer for 20 minutes, and I said no pink in my burger. I'm pregnate I cannot have any pink meat. So angry and ticked off never come here the service is always crap and they can't even cook a burger right. I have been going here for awhile the service has never changed it's crap. read more

Hands down the worst applebees I have been to! Can't even put an order in the computer correctly! Staff would rather talk than take care of paying customers! The entire staff should be fired! read more
