    Stopped in for a couple beers, which were both tasty. I preferred the "Prime" IPA and my wife liked "Maximus" I am just gonna call it like it is, there was a particularly "brash" borderline rude female worker. The couple in front of us were given menus by another bartender, while ours immediately said "you're planning to sit outside right?" Because we had our dog with us. No hello or welcome or anything. We knew it was dog friendly outside only, but we needed to come inside to get our beers before we could go outside and always respect places that don't allow dogs. It was just unnecessary in my opinion, and not the norm at a brewery, maybe she was just having a bad day but a poor reflection on the business imo.

    Being familiar with their beer from their Portland location, I was excited to try their new(ish) Freeport brewpub. The space is beautiful! Clean, bright and open with plenty of outdoor seating as well. If you want full service you need to sit at the bar. Other than that, you can seat yourself at a table, order via QR code and a runner will bring your food/beverages or you can order beer from the counter/bar and take it to wherever you want to sit. Since I planned on eating and had my 13yo w me I sat at a 2 top and used the QR code method which I felt was fairly simple but not for the technologically challenged. At the time of writing, they use toast as their POS and you cannot leave a tab open. Weird considering nighthawk kitchen inside mast landing right down the street uses toast and you can leave the tab open. My guess is that it's to prevent people from forgetting to close their tab. Most places just tack on a 15% surcharge if you forget to close but maybe that's not an option w toast? Like other reviews mention, there is a mandatory 3% fair wage fee added to every bill. I actually respect this as I know many well-off people that feel tipping isn't ever necessary; especially in places like this that make you order electronically and bus your own table. Toast then adds an additional 18% tip on top of that but it is customizable. The runners were fast, friendly and efficient so I tipped them accordingly well. The food was decent. Our smash burgers were cooked correctly. $14 plus $1.50 for a bag of chips. It had a ton of their proprietary sauce, so I'd probably get that on the side next time. The strawberry shortcake made with corn cake was brilliant as the corn cake held up well against the liquidity of the mashed strawberries and didn't become a soggy mess like can happen with angel food.

    First time checking this place out. The inside has a long bar and lots of seating. They have some outside seats too. Unless you sit at the bar you go up and order at the counter and they bring the food to you. Overall the space is nice and the service was friendly. The food was just okay- I got a burger for 16 without fries or chips, you can add chips for $1.50 and the patty was so thin. They are smash burgers but there wasn't enough meat to stratify my burger tasting. The menu is also pretty small. I didn't try any beer cause I am not a huge IPA fan but my friend just said it was alright. Seems like a cool spot to hang out and get a drink, but food is mediocre.

    I really liked this place! We stopped by here while driving on Route 1, as we had heard the food was good. There's a beautiful, open space when you walk in with lots of windows and great light. The bathrooms are all one-stall, gender-neutral. We love! When you sit you scan a QR code on the table. You can. Then order food and drink via their app, and pay for it. They bring it over to you when it's ready. This was the only awkward thing- there's not really service here, just food runners, and it can be sort of awkward. Be sure to be prepared and also have your Smartphone ready! You also can go right up to the bar and order their beer. It's super clean and welcoming. We saw several folks come in solo and sit by themselves enjoying books and a beer. That's my favorite kind of vibe ever. The food came out quick- my fried paneer sandwich was stellar. I LOVE cilantro and jalaepnos, so it was perfect for me. My bf got the smash burger, which was really pretty small- but enjoyed it. There's an outdoor seating area here that looks great for warm weather, ample parking, and cans available to purchase. I didn't drink as I was driving, haha, but I DO love their Prime and snag it any time it's on draft in Portland. Overall, very chill, clean, open, relaxing. The lack of service is sort of weird, but it works and probably makes more sense in the summer when it's crazy busy. Come for the food!!!!! Stay for the beer. And enjoy the lovely ambience of an unexpected gem in Freeport!

    Burgers, bags of chips and beer.

    First the good: their beer is delicious. Grab the gose! Wow! Delicious! Finally, a sour beer that's actually sour. Also, the patio is seriously dog-friendly and spacious. We met the sweetest dogs who were having a great time- they've clearly been here before. Now the bad: you order online from your table. Fine. In theory that's great but they still expect 18%+ tip for simply bringing out your order (without even any water)? That's ridiculous. The burger was just okay, not flavorful or filling. I think it was also expensive for being a plain burger with a bag of chips. We tipped as requested but we won't be back.

    Chicken sandwich

    Good food and good atmosphere. My Husband enjoyed the beer he got. We also split wings and I got the chicken sandwich while my husband got the fish sandwich as his entree. We went on the weekend in July and it wasn't too busy. May be a bit pricy but worth it. Would recommend!

    Great location, great service, decent menu and plenty of seating! I love the location - it's easy to get to off of route 1 and it's not crazy with nearby businesses. Plenty of parking in their parking lot as well. We came here specifically for the chicken sandwich that was recommended to us by several people. We were able to find a table for 2 quickly - it's self seating, which I like epescially when a place is as busy and as popular as Goodfire. I loved the fact that you could just order food and drink via QR code versus trying to flag someone down. We ordered a beer and a non-alcoholic drink along with an appetizer and our sandwiches. The smashed poutine appetizer was delicious!! Definitely would get that if we come back. Disco fire - was a beer that was recommended to me. It was ok. Nothing complex and easy to drink. The fried chicken sandwich....it looked amazing when it was first brought to our table. Unfortunately the bun and the chicken was overcooked in our opinion. The chicken coating tasted great - good flavor, however it was really hard and in some case dark brown, almost black. Which led to the chicken bring dry and chewy, not moist at all (sorry for the use of the word moist) I love a toasted bun, however, ours actually had char on them to the point, it tasted bitter and we could see black char on our lips and teeth. My mom would have loved it, however, we did not. We ended up eating around the char and the hard bits of chicken edges. That made me sad, as I am one that definitely likes to leave a clean plate. Because of mostly positive experience, I will give this 4 starts. Not sure we will be back, unless we have out of town guests that want to try it. As always with Goodfire - such a great group of employees that care and work hard and Goodfire fans are always great to be around. Goodfire culture is strong!

    The is a great tasting room! I was meeting up with friends and it was suggested. I personally do not drink beer so it would probably not have been a first choice for me but I am game to go anywhere with a group of friends just to meet up and spend time. I looked at the menu in advance and saw that they did have non alcoholic and cocktails on their menu, along with some really delicious sounding snacks and food items. It is a unique concept. Drinks are ordered at the bar. At your table their is a QR code with their menu to order right from the table. Staff brought it out to your table and they were barely noticed, they snuck in dropped it off and snuck back and removed the dirty dishes!! It is a very cool vibe. I will go back

    Absolutely love having this addition to the Freeport/Yarmouth community. There's not a lot of places where you can get explosive flavors and a great selection of beer, wine, and cocktails. Not to mention the modern rustic vibe inside was perfectly executed. Thank you Goodfire!

    Frank B.

    Small selection of beers, mostly IPA and DIPA. Do NOT get the smalls, they are tiny. The large is only 8-10 oz. I had the English Mild and it was a nice brown ale. There is a very small selection of snacks. The wings were good, but nothing special. The place is very clean, including the bathrooms. The staff is pleasant and helpful.

    This is my third time here. Still trying to figure out the vibe. The bar visual is very nice. The service is friendly. Seems like a nice gathering spot earlier in the evening for local families. The food is not awe inspiring. Cocktails on tap? Hmmmm, after 3 visits I can admit I'm not a fan. Not sure why this is what they do or if it's strictly a liquor license thing. The fresh local oyster bar stand was a great treat. Overall, if you are in the area and want to enjoy a nice atmosphere this is an option. Very clean.

The food is tasty and definitely fresh, although the chicken on my sandwich and on my partner's Cobb Salad felt like they spent an extra minute too long in the fryer. This is a good spot to relax if you're in the area shopping.

They have come a long way and look different in 2025 while still having a good amount of charm and uniqueness it had back then. As you could imagine by the name and the fact they opened in a former Naval Air Station they go heavy on the plane theme. Beer names especially and they offer a good variety of beer styles and have non-beer options for those not interested as well. I have enjoyed every visit including my many visits over the years here. The best time to visit is during the summer or at least nicer weather to fully enjoy their outside space. Arguably the best addition since their opening has been their food program. Think wood fire pizza and some other non-pizza offerings. My wife and I have had their pizza in the past and very much enjoyed it. This time though my wife got their Italian on Focaccia and I got one of their Chicken Bacon Ceasar sandwiches. Instead of typical bread it used a folded pizza dough and both our dishes tasted phenomenal. If you visit trying their food is a must, do not skip on it! Beer wise today we sampled four beers new to us. I got Wings their NEIPA & Vuelo Nocturno Mexican Lager while my wife got their Plane Beer American Lager and the Krösswind Kölsch. We enjoyed all four of them and we were glad to have found so many on tap we had yet to try! Flight Deck may not be an immediate thought when you think of Maine Breweries but they deserve recognition. Offering a well rounded variety of beers and other drinks along with some great food in a unique inviting space! Add it to your brewery bucket list!

There are so many seating options inside and outside, and the outdoor space is especially great.

The pizza and sandwiches are also really solid and perfect for grabbing a quick lunch. The service is always fantastic. Every person behind the bar has been friendly and welcoming each time we've visited. One of the things we appreciate most is that they allow dogs inside. Our puppy loved relaxing while we enjoyed our food and drinks, which makes it such an easy spot for dog owners. The location on a former military base adds a really unique atmosphere, and they do a great job leaning into that theme with thoughtful details throughout. Overall, it's a great place with great beer, great people, and an inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend. Cheers!

As an IPA fan I enjoyed this new version very much for its hop saturated citrusy forward taste that drank quite smooth for the 9.5%. At this point now Bissell is broken into two separate parts. The first will be the space welcoming to families and is more of their restaurant style area. Appeared to be a popular area and does offer reservations. My preferred area is the Bissell Garden as they call it. Those entering need to be of drinking age and have more lounge vibes where you order at the bar. It still offers full kitchen menu so is perfect. Particularly my favorite is snagging bar stools to grab some beers and food. I had to try out the Super Swish while my wife grabbed their red ale named Turnpike. Then food wise we split their kitchen special Classic Poutine. Some of the best classic kept simple poutine I have had. The perfect comfort food for yet another cold weather day in Maine. Have been impressed by all the food from Bissell. Truly the only negative still stands being the fact it's on Thompson's Point and required paid parking (not Bissell Brothers call but still). One of the most popular Maine breweries for a reason especially in the IPA game. Give all their other style of beers a try too though, top notch brewery!

Today marked the first time I have revisited since way back in February of 2019. At that point they had only been open since October 2018.

Plenty of as you would expect Pug pictures and decor, so very cute! I appreciate that they take risks with more unique beer offerings. Including their flagship THAI.P.A that uses ginger and lemongrass and they rotate different flavors into it. Jasmine and hibiscus beers and more. More traditionally they offer a kolsch as well. They also have bottles to go and offer growler (aptly named pug jugs) to go as well. If you can't decide their smaller pours are perfect to sample multiple brews.
