Stopped between lunch and dinner. The bar area was full with what I presume are the regulars. Portions are huge!! The haddock filet was the largest I've ever seen!! The bartender and waitress were great. read more

Local bar with good bar food. You walk in and they have a large bar and then lots of seating out back. They have lots of TVs and looks like an outdoor space in the summer. The service is was friendly. I got the steak and cheese and it was good. Overall, looks like a cool local spot with decent food! read more

I order takeout from here often, and the turkey club is by far my favorite! Definitely one of the best in town. The staff is always friendly whenever I stop by, which makes the experience even better. Highly recommend! read more

Lunch Bartender - Val is the best! She makes the whole bar experience wonderful. Gary's Pastrami sandwich is great. The bar area is large and room to sit or stand for conversations. Live Music is amazing on Saturday Nights. read more

Gary's Olde Towne Tavern - Partial Bar area at 2PM on Wednesday afternoon. - Brewpubs Near Me - Naples, Maine

We visited two different nights while visiting the area. First night we ordered fish and chips and the blackened haddock special. Wayyyy too much blackened seasoning on the haddock special. We had to scrape off most of the seasoning. Server didn't come back to check on us - it wasn't busy at all and we didn't see her for a very long time- until most of our meals were eaten. The mashed potatoes were very salty and the green beans had clearly been microwaved. The fish and chips were good- nice portion of fresh haddock. Second visit we ordered the fish and chips (still good, much smaller portion of haddock this time) and the baked haddock- same mashed potatoes and microwaved green beans. Except we discovered that we received the baked scallops, not haddock. The server offered to get us the baked haddock but we declined as it would have taken too long to get it and we were hungry. Scallops were good, though. Albeit more expensive than the baked haddock we had originally ordered. There isn't much of a variety of restaurants in the area that are open this time of year, so Gary's is pretty much the only place to eat. It would be great if portion size was the same from visit to visit. read more

The service was excellent! I wished that I had one of the lunch specials... Super Management too!!! Well, the woman anyway!! read more

I love it here!!!! I miss summer nights at Gary's. It has the perfect vibe with fire, music, and fun. Good cheap drinks and the food was pretty good. Employees are always nice too. :) read more

Service was great. The lobster bisque was horrible. The worst I ever had. 2 beers were $29! Will not be back.

Dropped in bc it was the only thing open. They stayed open later for us and even told us we had less than 5 min to order pizza. Ryan was a great bartender! Don't knock the mashed potato pizza. Sounded awful but MAN!! Delicious!!! Also got pepperoni/sausage pizza. Ryan's sausage was AMAZING! (you see what I did there?) Great little local bar with yummy food, lots of of drink choices and kick ass conversations. Hope to go back during our quick trip to Maine! read more

We were in Naples and looking for a place for dinner. Gary's was open and had a lot of outdoor seating, which was a draw. We were seated pretty quickly and there were two servers trying hard to attend to all of the customers and succeeding. We put in an order for a pot roast and a steak tip dinner, and they came out within a reasonable amount of time. The mashed potatoes with both dinners were excellent, but the rest of our meals, including the quality of the meat, was...just...ok. When leaving, we also noticed there were some specials posted that we may have picked had we known. Oh well. read more

I've come to catch a little football. Fantastic choice of local beers. Food looks great

Came here on a whim for a quick bite. It was later and this place seemed like it was just getting going. Had a great steak and cheese sandwich and enjoyed the atmosphere. Our server was outstanding too. Very attentive and present. Prices were good. Menu was fairly standard tavern fare. read more

Clearly a popular, local spot judging by the crowds but equally welcoming to out of townahs like us. Stayed at a local bed and breakfast whilst hiking Sebago Lakes. During COVID, it was one of the few places open for dinner. Quickly seated - and warm, hearty food delivered quickly - exactly what you want after a hike / long day of travel! No 2 hour Portland waits. Ordered the clam chowder which had large chunks of clam and potatoes - super filling. Ordered the scallop w Ritz crackers, veggies and mashed potatoes. Super filling! The boy got the meat lovers pizza. Left ready to sleep well. Would come back/recommend. read more

Have talked about coming here for several months since moving to Casco. Finally made the decision tonight and I wish I would have kept pushing it off. Everything was less than mediocre at best. Food was all room temperature and bland. Service was sub par and the vibe was not inviting. I didn't find it overpriced which I was told by others but certainly better choices in the area. read more

Yah know I love Gary's. Their outside area is wonderful, and their staff is always more than kind, but I have to update one thing which was once near and dear to my heart - the lobster roll. Went back to Gary's for another round of lobster rolls as I hadn't had one this summer this past weekend. It had gone up a few dollars in price - but I get it, supply and demand. I was sad to see that the lobster in the roll has decreased a fairly large amount in quality. The meat didn't appear nearly as fresh and it probably had only half of the meat that I had gotten in the previous year. I don't think I'd pay for the roll again in the future which is a bummer cause I do love the environment here. Side note my dad got their clam chowder as they were out of their mussels (which are great) and expressed it was a meh (we'll call it 6 out of 10). He said there was a spice in it that took away from the clammy flavor that he enjoys as part of the chowdahhh. read more

Well the last time coming to this establishment was interesting. As we walking in to the building there was a sign no one under 21 after 9pm. We (family of 5) walked in a 8pm and there was a guy at the door asking for IDs and was not going to let my adult children to come with us. They have live music outside which the music was ok, I have seen better bands here. The bar services is so slow. There is a line of 12 deep to order drinks and no waitresses of your not sitting at a "food" table. There could be several improvements made here to make the experience better. read more

When you show up to Gary's at 745 and are told a "20-25 minute wait for food" so you don't think much of it and have a drink to pass the time. Check back in 25 minutes later with the same host, and are told an hour to hour and half wait now, because "they're so backed up" meanwhile the restaurant is less than half full, including the tables outside.. then have a waitress go check with the kitchen to come back out and say atleast a half hour wait for food, sure no big deal. Then be told 5 minutes later that the kitchens been closed for the night because they're so backed up, meanwhile the place is still less than half full. After pointing out the restaurant being not even half full, the female bartender inside proceeds to tell me I can "go work in the kitchen with the kitchen staff, if I want to". I was completely baffled because frankly I've always enjoyed going to Gary's and usually have a good meal/service when going there just about weekly.. on the way out talking with other guests leaving, they mentioned they waited over an hour for chicken fingers, and they were still raw when they were served to them.. continued on to the causeway to watch the fireworks, just to see the host walking down to enjoy the show as well, because they didn't want to be working in the first place, and chose to string customers along and give them unnecessary attitude. I understand it's the 4th of July, if you don't want to be working, don't be open and don't be telling customers a 20-25 minute wait just to bring in business for the bar.. and definitely probably shouldn't be doing "cash only jello shots" The 1 star is being generous, the bartenders outside were pleasant to deal with thankfully. read more

We arrived at about 7:15 on Sunday evening and were told it would be a 90m wait. There aren't a lot of choices in the area, so we walked around, went to a bar, and had a drink before returning after about an hour. We waited for about 10m before being seated, and the first thing I noticed while getting settled was that my phone stuck to the table, not sure what they're using to clean but that's not the result you should be going for. Had to peel my beer glass off each time I picked it up. Our waitress is lucky my husband won't let me leave $1 tips. It took forever for her to come to get our drink orders and we had to flag her down to get any additional drinks, which we needed because it took an hour for them to bring us a burger, nachos, and 2 sandwiches. She didn't bother to ask us if we wanted desert. The only redeeming quality was that the food was pretty good. I get it, you're in a touristy town with limited options and everyone is short-staffed, but if I'm back in the area I'll spend a little extra time driving to find a better atmosphere and better service. read more

Everything is clean, seating is spaced nicely and the building is open, airy with beautiful vaulted ceilings . Our waitress was friendly and attentive, sorry I didn't catch her name with the masks on its hard for me. There looks to be plenty of outside seating but it was a bit cold for that this day. I got the fish and chips with sweet potato fries. They gave me the whole fish!! Well half of it anyway, I was amazed it was a huge nice thick filet, perfectly cooked. The fries were crisp and tasty but a bit cold( probably waiting on the fish?). My husband was happy with his chicken fingers and fries, all nice, hot and crispy. There was also coleslaw, which was very tasty. I ended up bringing half my meal home for lunch the next day, it was just as good then. I was told their menu is changing around Memorial Day and there will be more seafood offerings such as lobster rolls etc. I can't wait for that, we will definitely be back. read more

Not everyone can serve a good draft Guiness! Gary's is one who can. The fish & chips is very good too, so they go great together. We have found the proportions of the fish to vary, that may be expected, but I'll still choose Gary's for my fish fix. The service was very good and friendly too. I know they have entertainment outside around 8 but we haven't taken advantage of that. It would be fun. Good choice read more

Came into town for a wedding and decided to have lunch here. James was our bartender and he was very friendly and provided phenomenal service. The food was great and all the locals were friendly and having a great time as well. read more

I had not been there since It was Brays. 3 of us went Friday evening and had great service by a waitress that had a unique name that started with a C. I apologize but I can not remember. Our meals were very good. Best fish and chips my friend had in a long time. The baked scallops were big and yummy. We decided to return for dinner on Saturday and to enjoy the outside entertainment. Again, it didn't not disappoint. I had ordered a expresso Martini and it was not made right. It tasted like vodka and coffee only. She immediately took care of it. I spoke to the manager when we left and said what a great waitress she was. Will return next summer for sure!! read more

This is my favorite place for South Shore bar style pizza, last week's pepperoni was a true work of art! Ask for it well done for perfect lacing and caramelization, job well done guys! Keep it up! read more

Solid food, great service (Kristina was incredibly friendly and attentive) and great Maine vibes. I wish we had gone on a night with live music, as they have a really cool patio with fire pit, string lights, and outdoor bar. read more

As a veteran, very, very disappointed with Gary's, and I know they support the local troops, the food was mediocre and the service was absolutely horrible. I would not recommend anybody to go there. read more

Great food service and atmosphere. 10/10, recommend the nachos and Thursdays karaoke night.

Good haddock, onion rings, cheese curds and Chinese dumplings. We appreciate that they are open in the off season. Seems to be a locals hang out. Prompt friendly service. A little loud during rush hour. read more

We called in an order to Gary's on our way back from a basketball game in Naples. It's conveniently located right on 302, easy to spot. The entrance had a ramp, making access easy for patrons who would need an alternative to stairs. When I entered the restaurant, the bar area was filled with what seemed like "regulars" and the restaurant itself was fairly empty. The bartender was friendly and retrieved my order, which was done right at the time they said it would be. For two small pizzas, one being a specialty, I thought my $20 bill was reasonable. I got the mashed potato/bacon/scallion/cheddar pizza and it didn't disappoint. The crust was perfectly cooked, allowing it to hold the dense toppings. My daughter got the cheese pizza. It had a lot of grease on the top from the abundance of cheese. We sopped some of that up with a napkin. My daughter was happy with the cheesiness and proclaimed it was one of the best pizzas she had. My 3 year old son enjoyed it as well and he's as picky as they come. For those who are local, I would compare the taste to that of a small Pat's pizza. Thin crust, crispy around the edges but not overlooked underneath. read more

Stopped here because we thought it was also Brays Brewery and learned it hasn't been a brewery for more than 5 years. They have a nice selection of craft beers including some excellent local choices. Our waitress was delightful and talked about their outdoor music on summer nights (wish they had afternoon music too). Looking forward to returning when there's music. read more

Great service and atmosphere, the menu has great options that are all great. They have great music and lots of seating options including an outdoor patio area to enjoy in the summer, overall a great place to go if your looking for a casual lunch or dinner read more

Terrible service, incredibly rude to servers. Do not risk coming here if you're from out of town, they make it very clear we're not welcome.

I'm surprised that Gary's doesn't have better reviews. As a local, I think this is a spot with great food and service! It's one of a few spots you can get a great Friday fish fry. I've also had their Ruben's . Get there early in the summer time. Between the locals and visitors, this place fills up quick! read more

Praise the lord for karaoke thursday's. definitely recommend getting their early as they stop taking calls for songs at 10pm. my only complaint is that the inside bar and outside bar are not on the same page about pricing. I could get a drink inside for $7 and it'll be $12 outside. Great selection of outdoor seating and great people. read more
