Flatbread is the absolute go-to in our eyes if you're hungry in Portland and evening thinking about debating on what to eat. Take advantage of Yelp's webpage in which you can put yourself on the waitlist ahead of time and in real-time stay up-to-date on how long you'll be waiting for a table (sometimes there is an hour+ wait). Once you sit and start getting served -- practice some patience because the restaurant is typically quite busy and they cook pizzas out of one (large) wood-fired oven. Enjoy the ambiance (it's loud and often chaotic) but there's a certain rustic beauty to the entire production. Drink beer, celebrate, and bask in the warmth form the oven's fire because you're going to feast once served. Pro Tip: ask for additional sides/toppings... our favorites for pizza are their local-made hotsauce, their salad dress, parm cheese and garlic oil (but there are other hidden secrets that your server may recommend). read more

Yummy pizza! I came here with quite a large group of people on a weekday for lunch during the summer. We did have a little bit of a wait, but nothing too long, it was also a beautiful day, so we sat outside and got to watch the boats. The service was fast for the large party we had, and the staff was wonderful. We ordered a bunch of pizzas and drinks. The restaurant and the bathrooms were clean. I did find it a bit loud in there since it is a large open space. Overall good experience, and would eat here again. read more

Service and atmosphere were good. We ordered a large Flatbread, a small Flatbread, and a salad to share for for adults and a toddler. Reasonable amount of food for all of us. The chicken bacon ranch salad was delicious. The small Jay's heart Flatbread was good, pretty traditional taste for a cheese pizza. We added sausage to half and mushroom to half on the large Jay's heart and the sausage was delicious - definitely weren't trying to order two Jay's heart pizzas, so we think the large got put into the system incorrectly, we were hungry so we didn't complain. I don't eat mushrooms, so I didn't try that half, but we ate all of both Flatbreads. read more

Whenever I go to Flatbread, I'm in love! Their pizzas are just unmatched. I don't know what magic they put in there but it is perfectly cooked. Chewy yet toasted crust, a balanced sauce, and delectable toppings. We got the street taco flatbread and the carne special (pepperoni, ricotta, hot honey, onion). Both were so good. We also got the specialty salad (not pictured) that had corn, cotija, and pickled red onion. We also treated ourselves to some beer and drinks--yum. Our server was awesome. She was so attentive and also our food came out pretty fast. I also love how you can watch them make the flatbreads in the pizza oven. I don't know why we don't come here more often, but genuinely this is such a great time and the food is always on point. read more

Service: Waitress was nice and explained different foods well. I had to wait a bit for my water refill, but other than drinks everything was smooth. Ambiance/atmosphere: A bar type pizza joint, nice on the inside. Very well lit with the right dim shading in other parts. Smelled fanatic due to the open kitchen concept. It was loud, but as a hangout you expect and welcome that. Food: the pizza was very good. Very well made with a thin crispy crust and exciting toppings. The goat cheese, pineapple, with the chicken was delicious. A savory, salty, sweet, and creamy bite really mixed so well together. The banana bread with vanilla ice cream was so delicious. Perfect amount of banana flavor and the dark chocolate gave a fantastic side kick taste. It was warm and soft and mixed with the cold rich vanilla ice cream it was truly a memorable bite. read more

Holy smokes! The pizza is on point. It's in the name so I'm not sure what I doubted them. While in the area, my coworker and I went for lunch. What a great choice. We sat outside because it was beautiful. Our waiter was attentive and real. The menus had one of a kind drawings on the back by kids it was a cute touch. The pizza was delicious. Crispy and flavorful. Couldn't get any better. Next time I won't come during the work day so I can try their drinks. read more

I have been here a couple of times for work dinners and each time did not disappoint. Staff super friendly and fast. It's a casual dining experience. They are able to accommodate larger parties, both times I was with a group between 5-10. Reservations absolutely recommended if you have a group over 6 people. Call ahead! It can be very loud, with the open area and big groups, such as ours on the times we went, and the occasional band they might be playing. The food was great. The pizza crust was perfect, not to thick, not to thin, wasn't burnt. The toppings were balanced and plentiful. I loved everything we ordered to share at our table. The service was ok. We had to track someone down to help get our check, however, the drinks/food service was perfect. Parking can be a challenge with availability in nearby pay-for-parking lots, luckily I had a ride :) read more

We wanted to take a break from fish so stopped in for some flatbread pizza. We sure are glad we did. We ordered a pepperoni and mushroom with one side added spinach. There really wasn't much spinach, but the pizza was delicious - one of the best we've had in our travels. It has to be the best crust ever - thin and crispy. The staff were helpful and service was fast. The location was scenic and unbeatable. We'll definitely be stopping in the one in Hawaii next time we're there. read more

Food and services were outstanding! At the end of our stay our toddler took ill, unexpectedly in the booth. The staff was nothing short of amazing in a stressful and messy situation. Certainly not something you would normally see in a review but these folks went above and beyond to say the least and we WILL be back. read more

Great spot by the water and staff are all wonderful people! We got the salad special and a build your own large pizza. The vinaigrette they make and use on the salad is honestly an amazing dipping sauce for your pizza. Give this place a try! read more

We went around 6pm, sun was setting and the outdoor seating was beautiful. I enjoyed their local cola beverages. We got the birria taco pizza and a build your own pizza with pepperoni, bacon and pesto sauce. The pizzas were delicious, we wish there was a little more birria meat on the pizza. Their ranch dressing was really good! read more

Always stop here on my visits to Portland - East. While technically not the best pizza I've ever had, it's still very good, they use quality ingredients, and have a great location down on the water in Old Port. Though it's a big space inside, it still feels cozy with the ovens firing on a cool/cold day. On a nice day, the umbrella'd outdoor patio is delightful. Their salads also deserve a special shout out as the greens they use are so fresh and good, and the dressings are perfect with them. The taplist always includes solid Maine/New England selections, and the rest of the bar is great. I do wish they'd offer sliced fresh jalapeños to their build-your-own options, but other than that have nothing to complain about. Extra-appreciate that they offer a GF crust that they'll do on a separate pan for my celiac friends. All in all I love Flatbread. read more

Love this place! Delicious pizza, helpful servers and great drink list. Always visit when I'm in Portland.

Delicious pizza spot right on the waterfront! Ordering flatbread togo was convenient on the online system. The pizza was done in the allotted time. The crust was my favorite. It was thin and chewy. Each pizza had one bolt flavor that tasted good but I felt like the toppings were a bit underwhelming. I felt myself wanting to only eat the crusts which felt like they were the star of the show. read more

Visited Flatbread in April with my family of four while vacationing in the area. We went in for an early Saturday dinner and it was busy! Had to wait a bit for a table but it was quick and we were sat at a nice table facing the water. The restaurant is large and seating was comfortable. Our waiter provided great service. We enjoyed our pizzas getting a variety of pies. The pizza is thin crust and they have a variety of specialty pies as well. I would highly recommend Flatbread for a family meal if you are in Portland. Pizza did not disappoint! read more

I don't know that Flatbread is a destination spot in Portland (especially considering they're technically a chain with locations in New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Hawaii as of writing this), but - ironically - I do think it's a place for locals. Why? Because it's welcoming regardless of season, it's spacious, the food is consistent, it's good for groups, there are options for most dietary restrictions, it's FOR US (probably for you too, tourist, but... it genuinely is community-centric - you'll see that in the children's artwork and the NPO's they support monthly). In the summer it's one of THE BEST patios. Located outside on the working waterfront, the views are about as Portland as it gets (good people watching too)! Yes, it's still communal picnic table seating, but it seems like (probably because of the pandemic) they are packing people in a little less tightly. It's nice to (literally) have some elbow room out here again. In the winter it's one of THE BEST restaurants to tuck away inside at. The enormous "center piece" hearth where they cook emits so much (metaphorical) warmth and light, and creates such a cozy, atmosphere. Seating inside is varied with high tops, low tops, and booths. DRINK: the fresh squeezed lemonade with maple syrup is amazing, but don't miss out on their house made sweet tea either! EAT: for me, it's all about the Vegan flatbread with their own organic wood-fired tomato sauce, caramelized onions, olives, and plant-based cheese. I have them swap out the mushrooms for the sun-dried tomatoes, I get a side of their ginger-tamari dressing to dunk my crust in... it's perfection. Add on top of that one of their award winning salads and the strawberry-rhubarb crisp (no ice cream)? This is a good date night out for under $100. They get suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper busy at all times throughout the year, so I strongly encourage you to show up early or Join The Waitlist here on Yelp (love, love, love that they have this as an option). read more

We ate here because it was close to the ferry but were pleasantly surprised by how good it was. The poor guy toiling at the pizza oven has his work cut out- he made dozens in the hour we were there. They come out molten hot and crispy. I got a middle eastern spiced beef one and hubs had one with apples on- we inhaled them! Service was friendly. read more

Hands down my all time favorite pizza place. My go to is the cheese and herb with sausage and mushrooms, absolutely amazing! The service is always great and the staff are always very friendly. If you're dining in, try to get a table close to the wood fire ovens, they're pretty cool to see! read more

Flatbread is a go to in Portland! If you have a big group, they have lots of seating and lots of tables. They are right on the water with an amazing view out their windows. They have a deck and a bar as well. Their pizza is amazing! All kinds of options and even options if you are vegan or gluten free. The drinks are also amazing. A must try if you are in the area! read more

Vibes, views & pizza is a win for me! Found this place via Yelp community... and it did not disappoint. Parking is very get in where you fit in. So mostly street parking (free on Sunday) or a paid parking lot and then walk is the way to go to get to this place. Staff was chill and accommodating for a service animal we had with us. Server was helpful with menu guidance and offered cost efficient choices for our group of 7. I would have loved to know more about the history of the place and the story of the flatbread but the taste of it all did tell a story for sure. I hope I return to Portland soon and will definitely be coming back. Happy Yelping! read more

Waterfront views, the best pizza in Maine (flatbread lovers unite; it's all about the ingredients, not the crust; flavor that's out of this world), booth seating, a casual eatery, perfect for groups. The Community Flatbread (mushroom, caramelized onions) and Jay's Heart (a classic cheese pizza, but 10x better) are unbeatable. Pro tip: try their Potato Salad (a salad with potatoes), their Vodka Lemonade, and ask for a side of house made Ranch with your pizza. read more

We had such a wonderful experience dining here! We came in as a big group with a few different dietary restrictions, and our server couldn't have been more patient or accommodating. He took the time to carefully explain the menu, make sure everyone's needs were met, and never once made us feel rushed. The pizzas were absolutely amazing--fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. On top of that, the restaurant is very dog-friendly, which made the experience even more enjoyable for us. It's rare to find a place that takes such good care of both people and pets! Highly recommend this spot if u are in Portland, its best for great food, warm hospitality, and a welcoming atmosphere. read more

In my opinion, pizza in portland does not get better than flatbread. They do a fantastic job and my company regularly has events here

My family and I have been going there for years. Sometimes for a celebration and sometimes just because we love going there. There is always great Pizza and salads. The service is always great.

Okay, if you are in Portland, please do not miss this spot!! I can't say enough good things. For one, it is right by the water. The interior is big, clean, and spread out. And they also offer outdoor seating; May is still a bit chilly and windy but I can imagine this is a hit in summer. When I walked in at 4 pm on a Monday, I was immediately greeted and helped. I was alone, but the waitress still offered me a table instead of just making me sit at the bar, which I truly appreciated, especially since it was a water view table!! Now, the main event, the food and drinks. My margarita was $13 but very large in size and so, so fresh. They had their own house made margarita mix and did not skimp on the tequila. I also ordered the small Forager flatbread and cannot even tell you how delicious it was. For $17.25, the fresh ingredients and size made this well worth it. I walked away with leftovers and they brought me a nice size box. Overall, I highly recommend this especially for those looking for a break from seafood near the port. read more

This is a way over due review. My family and I have been to this location many, many times, even back in the day when you could walk in without a reservation. My husband and I love pizza so we thought this would be the perfect place to have our night before wedding party. It was absolutely perfect for us! I called and made a reservation for 25 people (the max) and it was taken care of no problem. I forgot about some people (oops) and had to add 4 more to our party and they were able to do that. We had a lot of family coming in from out of state who also wanted to celebrate with us so they called asking if they could reserve a table near us for a party of 8. I felt so bad we were making trouble but everyone there was so accommodating. They sat us at two long tables by the windows and pulled up a table close for the rest of my last minute family. We ordered salads and pizza and everything we ate was delicious. Everyone in our party enjoyed themselves throughly. The drinks were great as well as the service. It was the perfect night. Everyone at Flatbread was amazing. read more

A few weeks ago we went to Naples (Napoli) Italy and tried the pizza at several restaurants including the local's choice, 50 Kaló. After eating my wife and I both decided that they could not better the Flatbread Company in Portsmouth. At flatbread they properly cook in a brick oven and the ingredients pair magnificently. For many years you had a long wait to get into the restaurant, but now with the constant turnover of restaurants people are frequently trying something new. After our food tour in the culinary capital of Italy, we are happy to return to the Flatbread Company. It's definitely worth the visit. Great salads, flatbread and desserts. read more

Wish I clicked better pics! The flatbreads were delicious I'm not at all a cheese and pizza person but still enjoyed both the flavours- pesto margharita and casco bay special. No overdose of heavy toppings is what I love. Highly recommend this place!! read more

We chose this spot because it was in a cool waterfront location, it had a huge menu WITH gluten free options for my celiac friend (hard to find at pizza places), and they had a lot of Maine local adult bevvies. I got a pizza that had...well, I'll add a photo of the menu description. It was freaking amazing and nothing that I usually see at ANY pizza place. Go look at the menu. I'm glad we looked before we went because it would have been impossible to choose amidst the smells and sights of all the pies going by. The salads were of epic portions size as well. We loved that we could join the waitlist online and just stay in our cozy rental until then. It was pretty chilly that evening and I would not have enjoyed waiting outside for very long. The indoor area was rather full. Another place good for larger groups or smaller gatherings. And if you can't find something on the menu you're excited about, then that is definitely a YOU problem! read more

The food here was so good. We were seated quickly, had excellent service, good draft menu of local beers, and a menu where everything looked great. The 12" small pizza is definitely enough for one person and the menu says a 16" usually feeds two people. Me and my wife each got a 12" and finished them both. The chicken bacon ranch was excellent. The crust is so thin and crispy and you can watch them be put into the brick oven pizza across the dining room. Can't recommend enough, especially if you're in the Old Port area! read more

Really enjoyed this place. Firstly, the location is great - especially in the summer when you can sit outside on the deck overlooking the wharf. The pizza is delicious and I love the size of the personal pies (just enough for one hungry person or two peckish friends). They are very artisan style and the veggies and cheese are fresh. My friend once saw Steve Carell here and she never fails to remind me of it lol. The service is also incredibly friendly and everyone has a really laidback vibe. I have seen all sorts of tourists throw all sorts of tantrums here but none I have felt were caused or escalated by the servers. read more

Pizza, salads and drinks are always superb! Our whole family loves this place and the view is just as great!

This place is amazing!! I found it while researching restaurants months before our vacation. It looked awesome online (but we all know how that can go), so I knew I wanted to make sure I tried it while we were there. Flatbread company did not disappoint. Their employees were really friendly and on top of things. The view and the atmosphere on the patio was 1. Beautiful, and 2. Relaxed. The food was soooo delicious!!! My family of three devoured the pizza and left pleasantly happy. It's been over a week now, and I still can't stop thinking about it!! I'm not sure if I'll be able to get out to Maine again, but if I do.... I will be eating here for sure, maybe twice. It was one of the best places I had to eat in Maine. read more

On our first night in Portland, we wandered around downtown, looking at the plethora of restaurants feeling a bit overwhelmed. I'd seen this one in Yelp, so when we stumbled across it, it doesn't stand out; we decided this was the place. We were thinking, hmm pizza, which is not very exciting for our first meal in this city, but we were hungry. It was delicious!!! The ambiance is beautiful as it is right on the water! The service was impeccable, the prices were excellent, and the food was phenomenal! If there weren't so many different places to choose from here, we would go back. read more

Definitely was surprised by this place. Got the Special Veggie Flatbread for the day - Artichoke Cream Cheese base + fresh mozzarella + bell peppers + basil I think? Such a good pizza. Crust was fresh and perfectly cooked and the right thickness too. Definitely would order again. Only thing needed was a bit of crushed chili flakes. So good. Build your own salad (with greens/carrot/celery/seaweed + pineapple + red onion + chicken) was lovely. Really really big salad with a lot of greens which I actually really appreciate. Chicken was actually quite hot as if it was just cooked fresh and shredded read more
