This place is amazing! Such a great vibe with colorful decor and live plants. The waitstaff is so friendly and helpful. The michelada was fresh and delicious, and my friend got a fresh-squeezed orange juice that was frothy to in a way I've never seen before. He said he could drink a gallon of it. Both sandwiches were perfection. The burger had an amazing bun and the perfect ratio of all the ingredients. The corn cakes on the breakfast sandwich were different, but in the best way. I wish I lived in the area so I could come here more often! read more

Been to Cuties twice and have had a great experience both times. First time was on a weekday, in the colder months, midday and second time was peak tourist season on a weekend, also midday. First time I had the place to myself and could see myself actually working from there. Second was so loud and busy I could barely hear my husband talking to me. Drinks are amazing, burgers are fantastic and atmosphere is enjoyable. There are so many new places in Portland I haven't visited but I'll still choose Cuties over all the rest. read more

When finding drink spots to visit in Portland, I saw Cutie's on a lot of people's lists and Tiktoks so knew it was a must-add! I loved how funky and trendy the bar looked, and they had a lot of variety in their drinks. I ordered the frozen watermelon margarita and thought it was great! Margaritas are always hit or miss for me, but I thought this one was good; perfect ratio of alcohol and sweetness, and the watermelon flavor really came through. Service overall was great, and the drinks came out pretty quickly. read more

We stopped here on a Wednesday night before our dinner reservations. We started with the turbo Julius and a negroni. The turbo Julius was delicious and I ended up ordering another. It was very fresh and had lots of flavor. The Negroni was good and strong. We also ordered the mini watermelon margarita which was also super yummy if you're in the mood for a frozen drink. This was a great place to stop for drinks! read more

Finally made our way to check out Cuties after first hearing about them back in 2024 before they opened. From all indications they became very trendy and popular quickly. Due to its location it makes sense and I suspect the tourists flood into this place. For our visit we came for a small bite and pre-dinner drinks since we had a late reservation. When we showed up it was very busy and loud but we snagged some bar seats. Staff and bartenders were very friendly and welcoming! The vibes are trendy and modern, with a mix of seating types. Only real knock against the overall vibes/aesthetic would be the loudness making it difficult to talk at times. I do wonder how the noise is during the morning when they are more of a cafe/coffee spot. Drink wise they have a good variety of drink offerings and I chose their espresso martini. It is served nitro and has an orange peel on top to give you strong citrus on the nose. It was a very solid espresso martini but I have had better. My wife got Turbo Julius and really liked it. To hold us over until late dinner we also got the large serving of Crispy Pots and it was incredible for what they were. Potatoes were very crispy and aioli was tasty too! Overall a great spot for grabbing drinks and a quick bite to eat. Will need to return and check out the morning coffee options. read more

I came across this spot while doing research on Portland on TikTok! I love a frozen margarita and had to come and try it! I'm very glad I did. The interior is cute and comfortable. I wish they had a few more tables, but luckily we were not there when it was super crowded. Cuties is a great spot for drinks. Didn't get into the food, since we had a reservation elsewhere. But the drinks were delicious! read more

I gave Cuties a chance during its opening weekend and thought it wasn't for me. It was too crowded, obnoxiously loud, and I just felt like I didn't fit in. Fast-forward to now: I was walking around with a friend and we felt like having a drink, and Cuties was right nearby. I decided to give it another shot, and I'm glad I did because my experience was incredibly better. First of all, the place felt a lot more welcoming and less overwhelming. I finally had a chance to look at all the decor and details, and my eyes were FEASTING on the colorful touches and funky vibes. Our server was very nice, and even though we only ordered one drink and definitely stayed there for a good amount of time, he wasn't pushy in any way. My cocktail, the Wink n Nod, was soooo good. It had vodka, gin, manzanilla, olives, and pickled Fresno brine. The result was a yummy concoction with a punch, one that I could savor and not slurp in ten seconds. That said, I gotta say I was surprised by how busy the place was given how early we went. It wasn't even 4pm. I don't think I would come back in the summer or during peak hours because I could definitely see them getting busy, just like during their opening weekend, and having an entirely different experience. Note: Although I didn't try any, I was happily impressed by the food options and non-alcoholic options. A true all-day bar! read more

Awesome place to grab a drink anytime do the day and a snack. Super cool vibes and great staff. Very welcoming and friendly. All employees were attentive and helpful. Menu has tons to offer. There's coffee drinks, alcoholic beverages, various snacks and food, etc. Lots of talent and thought has gone into what they offer. We order a Bitchin Michelada and a spicy bloody! Both amazing!! Well done. For sure stop in this gem of a place regardless of the time of day as they have lots to offer. read more

Stylish all-day eatery/drinkery with high tops along the bar and oppposite along the windows, plus lower, cozier seating in funky furniture further back. Bright, hip decor will put you in a good mood. Only a few beers available, with wider selection in the craft cocktail realm. -- All-Day Burger: This is basically an elevated Big Mac, minus the middle bun layer: twin smashed patties, burger sauce, shredded lettuce, American cheese, pickles, and onions, on a densely-sesame-seeded Big Marty bun. The smashing gets the patties extra thin, so there's crusting, flavor from the griddle (plus good seasoning), and not so much volume that it'll stuff you. A well balanced creation that keeps the flavor coming. -- Crispy Potatoes: Deep-fried mini potatoes, some whole, some cracked, some cut, all with crispness and seasoning. A no-brainer add-on for $4. I think there are better burgers to be had nearby, and with better beer selection, but what I had was solid and the vibe of this place was certainly enjoyable enough to come back every now and then. Nice lunch; friendly staff. read more

Cuties is where all the fun people go. It's colorful, loud and the drinks are delicious. It is also the only place that I know of in Portland that actually does a delicious riff on a Pornstar Martini (passionfruit). Can get pretty tight in here during happy hour and on the weekends, but its a great spot for a quick drink. Food is not your average bar food: hushpuppies with Oaxacan cheese (?) which makes it fun. Just be prepared to yell, the music can be pretty loud. Love that they host a burger night (burger and a glass of beaujolais for $25) on Wednesday nights. I haven't tried their breakfast yet, but have heard good things. read more

My favorite bar in Portland! Great drink menu, average price, and cute atmosphere; I always love to bring people here. Seating can be difficult at popular times and the bathroom line can be annoying. Would highly recommend. read more

Cuties - Paloma and Julius - Bars Near Me - Portland, Maine

This is the trendiest new craft cocktail spot in Portland. I think the tourists and the Influencer crowd will love it; as a local... I'm not rushing to come back here soon. I got to check it out, it was cool, but it wasn't so revolutionary or so special that I absolutely NEED to bring everyone I know here. At least not now. I'd be interested in revisiting in winter when they've been open for a while and it's quieter in the city. Love the space; the decor is very modern and the vibe is very welcoming. There are lots of interesting seating options: stool seating all along the floor to ceiling windows for people watching, some stool seating at the bar, some couch seating in the corners of the room, some workspace-style stand-up seating for you to WFH from, and more. It feels set-up so you're almost forced to interact with the people around you; not necessarily a bad thing, but when it's busy, expect to make friends. Two drinks, two snacks, after tax and tip it was close to $75. We got the All Day Spritz (aperol, strawberry, cucumber, "double friggin' bubbles") and the Our Best Bloody (vodka or tequila, the usual suspects). Loved the excess of cucumber slices in my spritz (that felt cheeky), but the drink itself was mostly ice. My friend's bloody was VERY strong, I don't think she even finished it. She liked her Tuna Tostada; the Butterbean Dip (which is vegan! A pot of creamed butterbeans and a side of homemade [?] saltines) was good, but the toppings (the castelvetrano olive and fresno peppers) did all the heavy lifting. The dishes were taken away from us before we were finished them without being asked if we were done; that felt a little weird to me (and, no, they weren't busy when we came). The bartender was the highlight of the experience. So friendly, so engaging, so quick-witted, so real. They double-checked ingredients for us; they made suggestions and told us why those were their suggestions. Cheers to the staff! read more

Cuties is my new favorite breakfast/brunch spot in town. The McGriddle was just the right amount of junky to be delicious, nothing fancy, just good grub. And the chai was spectacular and BIG. The decor is so fun and funky, and made the place feel like a bright spot on a cold and snowy day. Staff is friendly and let us just chill and read our books while we digested, and the playlist is groovy as hell. Love cuties! read more

Such a cute spot. The name totally fits the vibe. It was recommended that we visit cuties by a few people, so we decided to stroll over for a mid-day cocktail. We sat at the bar and chatted with the bartender on recommendations and each of them were very personable and accommodating. We ended up with an expresso martini, which is not vodka based and another drink with prosecco. Both were tasty but honestly I'd come back just for the vibe. Very chilled and easy.

Sister bar to room for improvement. Same formula, drinks and a bit of bar food. Service fast and on point Better come at 5 pm sharp because I came at 5.30 pm and the place jam packet (ex petite Jacqueline place). I ordered boat doctor and danger margarita. The boat doctor's ginger slightly a bit over, can't taste some of the ingredient. But ginger is always like that, a little come a long way.

Already the new "It" bar in Portland just days after opening, Cuties lives up to the hype. It's quite literally the light to sister bar's Room For Improvement's darkness. The space is mostly bar (with 16 seats), and nearly as many counter stools, providing possibly the best people watching in the city through the floor to ceiling windows. Vintage, bright yellow furniture for larger parties encompasses the rear of the bar. The full house (half hour after opening) was all ages, but heavily leans towards the trendy crowd. Sigh, it stinks getting old! The cocktails are all creative spins on classics, similar to Room for Improvement, but lean sweeter. I slightly prefer the drinks at Room and hope they add some less sweet options in the "Boozy" section of the menu, but these are some of the best downtown. The espresso martini ($15, or $7 mini) might be better than the famous rendition at Room, and the mini frozen margarita ($5) is a must-order. Those fish-shaped creations you're seeing all over Instagram? It's the Oaxaca-Yaki ($10), basically slightly spicy mozzarella sticks, and it's fantastic. The Coconut Shrimp Toast ($12) might somehow be better, even if you don't love shrimp. Only the Popcorn Shrimp ($12) was too salty and I wouldn't order again. Cuties is going to be a massive hit in the Old Port, especially when they're open all day. It's a much brighter, airy, and (I think) better atmosphere than Room For Improvement, which is really saying something. I can't wait to return. read more

Came in on a Thursday night around 7 and it was packed--but we were able to get the two couch seats for our group of five. I got the Red Wine Supernova, it was sweet, smooth, and perfect. Service was fast and friendly, and our drinks and apps came out quick. Everyone loved what they ordered. If you like spice, the Cajun shrimp is a must! Personally for me the place was a little loud and hard to hear when chatting. Overall will return! read more

Came here for an after dinner drink with a friend. It was a great spacious space. My friend talks about this place alot so when we saw that it was open he said we had to go. This place also has coffee so its not just a bar but its open from morning to night. I was not particularly blown away by the drink menu so I opted to try a NA beer. It was good but I was full from dinner. I would try and see what their coffee is like though next time I am in town. read more

Cuties is one of my main rotation bars in Portland maine for evening hangs and drinks, one of my favorite ambiance bars to attend! Was very excited once they opened doors for full food services (breakfast, lunch, & dinner bites) once I heard they added a burger to there I had to check it out! The food was what I expected very delicious and stand out different, the burger was surprisingly delicate for being a double smash burger and the shrimp roll was very fresh, nice size shrimp and served on a perfect roll to compliment the experience! I love when places don't try to reinvent the food world by keeping it traditional while hitting the correct flavors to compliment the food itself. Highly recommend checking out Cuties for breakfast lunch or light dinner bites, great bar experience! read more

True to the name, Cuties is a super fun spot to grab a drink and some snacks! We stopped in for a couple of apps before a ferry cruise. I ordered the red wine supernova which was very fruity and delicious! My friend tried the caddy frozen marg which was also so good. We split the shrimp cocktail and the oaxaca yaki. The shrimp were fresh and large, and the oaxaca yaki was really yummy! Basically mozzarella stuffed in a sweet, almost pancake like batter served as a cute lil fish. Our bartender was attentive and helpful! They also have great windows for people watching in Old Port. read more
