Best pizza around. Appreciate the attention to detail and quality ingredients. A favorite for sure.

Unique environment. Great pizza. Friendly service. We return often for pizza. Try the popcorn.

Great pizza, and I am from Jersey. Nice salad and good beers. Only bummer was full pours and no flights. Will have to go back with more time and an Uber. read more

Cushnoc Brewing - The layout - Breweries Near Me - Augusta, Maine

What a jewel. We went down to Augusta to see what the city was all about and ran across Cushnoc Brewing on the waterfront. What an awesome place. From the moment you walk in the door, the service was attentive and friendly. The aromas coming from the kitchen made me salivate in expectation. Our server took the drink and appetizer order and was right back with our beers. The fire roasted nuts and warm marinated olives were the perfect start. So good, we decided to order the Herbed Cannellini Spread and glad we did. The hot flat bread with zahtar, fresh veggies and the cannellini bean spread. So good!! The to top it off, we had a small vegan pizza we built from the ingredient list. The crust on the pie was great. Thin and crisp. The only bad thing was the kitchen put arugula (not ordered) on as a topping and it overpowered the rest of the ingredients. The server said they would remake it but we needed to get going. Overall this is a wonderful place to slow down, enjoy a great brew and some awesome appetizers. I'll be back, soon! read more

Cushnoc Brewing is a fun pizza joint and beer bar in central Augusta. We got the Fort Western (delicious and not too heavy) and the Bond Street (a bit too much grease and honey, but tasty). The Farmer's Salad was also amazing. We ate outside on the sidewalk on a lovely sunny day -- but the inside also looks cool and fun. Come here for a casual and delicious meal! read more

Went in for lunch today and this type of place has been lacking in Augusta area for years. It's surprising how long it's taken Central Maine to catch on to the brewery hype that elsewhere in the state have had for awhile. If you are looking for a fun and inviting atmosphere with delicious food and high quality beer, this is the place. For food, we had nachos to start, which was a generous portion loaded with plenty of toppings. Then we got a pizza called The Diner Closes at 2pm, that came topped with thinly sliced potatoes, bacon, eggs, white sauce, and a maple syrup drizzle. The flavors all worked so well together. I'd argue it's the best pizza by far in the local area especially since it's cooked in a wood fire. Definitely will be returning to try other pizza varieties. Then for beer I tried a flight of 4 of their 5 available in house beers. They also had a small offering of guest tap beers and some wines and full bar available. The four beers I had were all high quality and look forward to coming back for new brews. I had a kolsch (Kresge), American IPA (All Souls), Belgian IPA (Eternal Golden Eagle), and their newly released Wild Ale (SturgeonFox) using wild yeast to ferment the beer. A great new place for Maine beer lovers and foodies to an area in need of new places. Would be good as a place to stop in for a beer after work or dinner with the family or a large group too. Give this place a try, you won't regret it! read more

Cushnoc Brewing - Beer - Breweries Near Me - Augusta, Maine

Usually the food is wonderful, but Friday this was some of the worst food I've ever had. One of the toppings on my pizza was so burnt it was not edible. I told the wait staff and was still charged no apology just casual whatever. I ordered a salad to go I asked for shaved parm instead of goat cheese they gave me shaker cheese and instead of the dressing that comes with it they gave me some weird green dressing!! It was supposed to be my lunch for work, but I don't eat shaker cheese nor could I dress my salad with a dressing I'm allergic to. They really dropped the ball Friday. Probably not returning anytime soon. read more

Delicious! Best pizza I've had in Maine. Had my favorite - mushroom, onion, & pepperoni on red sauce with root beer.

Best pizza around! The pizza and salads and absolutely perfect and shouldn't be missed!

We really enjoyed our visit to the brewery. The beer was great, the pizza was delicious. We went with friends and visited for a couple of hours. We even brought our children (teenagers) and they enjoyed themselves, too! Overall great experience and we would go back! The prices were on the high side (for pizza), but we really appreciated the atmosphere and quality customer service. read more

Great ambience, views of river. Good beer and yummy popcorn. I recommend for a nice afternoon

This place has never disappointed!!! Im slowly working my way though the whole menu. What a delicious pizza journey read more

Cushnoc Brewing - Mill Park Pizza - Breweries Near Me - Augusta, Maine

We were passing through Augusta with 4 hungry teens. Cushnoc was easily able to accommodate our party of 6 despite the lunchtime rush. Spacious interior with fun decor- loved the penny-round tiles on the pizza oven, the giant, wood center table with benches and the large tomato cans serving as pizza stands! Service was fast and friendly. They were able to accommodate the non-dairy eaters in the group no problem. Salad and pizza were delicious! Every last morsel vanished. We will definitely be back on our next trip!! read more

Great spot for a casual and fun meal. We did not try the beer (or any other drinks) but really enjoyed the dill pickle popcorn, bread/cheese bites, and pizzas. The pizzas are creative and tasty, especially since they are baked in a wood fire oven. Service was great and the atmosphere was fun without being overly loud. read more

This brewery was an amazing gem in Augusta and well worth stopping for. The restaurant is located in a former shop front and their decor is very eclectic and visually pleasing (AKA, chill and fun). The pizzas are awesome and their brew selection is modest but diverse. They have everything from a Kölsch to a stout and every thing in between. They even have an alcohol-free beer and a hard cider on tap (as well as a full bar with spirits and wine). Their menu offers plenty of low and gluten free options such as their starters, salads, and gluten free crusts for their pizzas. I had the gluten free Mill Park (squash, bacon, sprouts, balsamic glaze) and my family split a build-your-own. Both were delicious and hit the spot for a chill family evening. The waitstaff (Alex in particular) were very solicitous and helpful, which made the experience even more enjoyable! read more

The food and service was excellent! Specifically, I had never claimed pizza to be "delicious"...until Cushnoc!

Definitely more of a restaurant feel than a brewery. We didn't love the QR code ordering--their online menu wasn't clear, especially for drinks. If the code had brought up a PDF menu it would have been better. Our kids had the cheese pizza and we got one with butternut squash, balsamic, Brussel sprouts, and bacon. Not my usual pizza order but it was really good. This isn't a place I'm dying to go back to, and I'm sure there are other good places in Augusta to check out, but I'd surely return if it worked out. read more

Great beer, salad, popcorn and view! So glad we stopped by and discovered it. We will be back again when we visit Augusta.

Ohmigod! Love this place. I'm from the Boston area and am shocked at how fabulous the pizza is here. One of the best anywhere! Was in the area again this year and I was afraid there was no way the pizza could still be as good as last year's visit - but it was! Terrific beer and always professional servers. read more

Very trendy spot and lively atmosphere. We had a short wait time of about 20 minutes even though it was very busy. The waiter was knowledgeable and was able to make great recommendations for our vegan friends. I am not much of a beer enthusiast so I was happy to see that they had cocktails options. Highly recommend their spicy margarita. Pizza is made to order and is the perfect amount of crispy. We had the Cony High Pie and loved it. Definitely worth dropping by if you're in the area :) read more

What can I say about this place besides its a must stop if you're in Augusta. Perfect spot to grab a bite and a drink. I recommend the Bond Street pizza because it was amazing. My friend and I split it and I wish we would have saved some for leftovers. Service was ok, they were super busy and On a wait but not bad during this post covid times. Will definitely stop by again next time I'm in Augusta read more

We were traveling from Rockland to Topsham, avoiding route 1 and took Route 17. Stopped in at Cushnoc Brewing after seeing the reviews on Yelp. The pizza was so fresh tasting! There are a lot of pizza places charging $30+ for their pizzas which is ridiculous. Go here and you will not be disappointed. read more

Okay pizza. Not great. Kind of undercooked frankly. Beer selection is okay. This isn't an intimate restaurant. The interior is quite like a warehouse. Trendy but cavernous for sure. read more

I'm happy for Cushnoc and the Augusta area to be developing with high quality spots. I finally visited Cushnoc and had a pretty good visit. We arrived on a Sunday around 1pm, first mistake. We sat at the bar and the bartender was slammed. We were disappointed not to have been acknowledged sooner. We were waiting for friends to arrive so we got beers and rosemary sea salt popcorn to share. The popcorn was warm and delicious. The beers were pretty good, with good potential. We got a table once our friends arrived and we shared 2 pizzas. They were both delicious and affordable. 2 people can share 1 pie with leftovers. We soon learned there is a tasting room directly below the restaurant, just know you have to walk/drive around the building to get there, no access from inside. The tasting room has a larger selection of Cushnoc brews and they even do crowler fills. read more

Great experience. Nice space, excellent service and food. Hopefully they'll add a few more starters going forward.

Excellent pizzas! We ordered several pies (to go) and they were all very tasty. The butternut squash "sauce" with bacon and brussels sprouts worked far better than you might think. Will definitely visit again when in Augusta. read more

Best pizza in the game! My friends and I love meeting up here, sharing some brews and complaining about life together.

Best pizza in Maine! There! I said it. If you love pizza, you must come here. Wood fired, fresh ingredients, cooked to perfection. If it is nice out, sit out back on the river and you wont be disappointed. My girl swears by the fresh salads. Oh, and the beer is pretty good too! read more

Really enjoyed my initial visit. Delicious pop corn appetizer, pizza and beer. Definitely will be stopping by when I return to the area.

Every pizza we ordered was decent. The Cubano special was stellar. The Sand Hill Classic was pretty good. The Fort Western was really good. However, the baked nachos were just okay. Other than that, the staff was friendly and accommodating. read more

This was a fun unexpected treat. We didn't know it existed until we were in search of a restaurant that could accommodate a party of 11. They could, and did. And we were not disappointed. We ordered cocktails, beer / cider, and soda. Our waters were kept full and plenty of attention was paid to our party. We ordered several pizzas(7), and chicken nachos. The restaurant was newer and had a simple utilitarian build out. Very open making it fairly noisy. Some knee walls or smartly located partitions might help diffuse the noise ...but they can do that whenever. We ordered most of the specialty pizzas and liked all of them. This place is missing wings and fries but they likely don't want them on the menu. It's trendy, and hipster which might be why. However I know from experience this absence being purposeful leaves many wondering why.. (Rhetorical) I enjoyed the experience, I'm sure you will also ...if you have a hankering for a delicious pie. Enjoy! read more

Outdoor seating was hidden around the corner and very nice shaded picnic tables available. Not too busy, lots of attention and knowledgeable wait staff and just good fresh dishes. Had the BLOT salad which had a great dill dressing and a mixed pie. Both excellent. Beer list extensive. Nice meal by the water. Pink moose and funny signage in the bathroom- love it! read more
