Title: Great vibes, fantastic drinks, but skip the unsolicited lecture…read more We're visiting Bangor for the first time and were absolutely thrilled to stumble upon this spot while walking downtown. The atmosphere is exactly what you hope for in a local coffee shop--loved the aesthetic, the crowd was friendly, and having the lounge area next door is a fantastic touch. The drinks themselves? Delicious. The person at the register clearly knows how to pull a great shot and make a beautiful beverage. However, we had a really odd interaction while ordering. Without any prompting from us, the barista launched into a strange, unsolicited lecture about whether a Café Mocha is Italian or American, speaking to us as if we had never had coffee outside of the U.S. It was especially baffling given that we've visited Italy numerous times. We didn't ask for the history lesson, and being talked down to for no reason definitely left a sour note on an otherwise lovely visit. The bottom line: Absolutely come here for the cozy space and the high-quality drinks. Just hope the person at the register decides to skip the coffee trivia and just make the amazing drinks they clearly know how to make.

They have a great assortment of drinks you can choose from. I decided to do a Wild Maine Blueberry Iced Tea. When they mentioned molasses as a sweetener option, I knew I had to try it. As a result, the drink had the perfect amount of sweetness, but also a nice blueberry flavor! I paired it with a pumpkin chocolate chip cookie and it was the perfect combo on a sunny fall day :) I highly recommend checking this great little spot out!! :)

So, you can make a whole night of it. I came here with my sister for a girls night out a few months ago. I ordered a Pickle Martini on special. I weirdly make these all the time at home. Yes, they're a thing. I really like salty martinis, so this was right up my alley. It was so good, too! The pickle flavor was there, but wasn't overwhelming. I wish I could have another one right now. My sister ordered The Happy Ending and loved hers too. Their cocktails aren't exactly cheap, which I realize is a bit of a negative for Bangor folks (I grew up there). But, I really don't mind paying a bit more for a really well-made, craft cocktail. It's worth the price! They also have beer on draft and wine as other options. I'll definitely be back.

We started with brussel sprouts, which were very tasty, just a bit salty. I usually get the salmon or halibut-I went for pan seared scallops. Excellent choice! I do not use a lot of salt at home, so again, a bit salty. My friends enjoyed the fish tacos and grilled shrimp. More fish on the tacos and a little less salt would have made this a five star review. Overall, still my favorite spot. The bar, the restaurant, the dragonfly decor -- nothing but love! Maybe I'll secure the old bank vault room when I graduate with my Master's degree in May 2025.
