Enjoyed the food. Just had pizza so tried a hot dog and the sweet hot mess burger. We enjoyed the beer but the food really hit the spot. We came at 2:30 on a Saturday and they were busy but able to get a table inside right away. It seems like they are always busy. read more

If you like to wait for food, drinks or service, come here. Better yet - if you wanna pay $19 for a 4oz margarita - please come here. Living in Boston, I still don't pay this much! $19 with a splash of Don Julio and mostly ice is a complete rip off. And waiting twenty minutes for it didn't sweeten the pot. I definitely won't be back. Tip: LOWER YOUR GOUGING PRICES. (The only reason there's two stars is because the brisket tacos were amazing) read more

The burgers are amazing and so are the cocktails! The place has a great ambiance too, highly recommend!

-lettuce soggy -slow -food put on cold metal hipsters trays so gets cold -Food is genuinely not bad as long as you are okay with it being cold, soggy, and almost an hour after ordering -slow -price eh alright maybe if everything else was good -menu very complicated design and hard to read -weird room decor in side room, feels like in jail segregated from cool main area. It's hilarious you will see the hostess walk people in there and then people will say "Oh no please" and immediately walk back out to wait longer to be seated in other room. -Loud - good beer -busy and understaffed, not enough servers so slow, assume kitchen is same and why food is so slow Will go again, probably many times, but only because people will say "we are going to masons, you are invite!" And its not my place to say "ehhhh masons? why not somewhere else" SLOW. Like actually slow, if it's busy we have waited 51 minutes for food after ordering. read more

My friend was HUNGRY so we ordered 3 appetizers and a veggie burger with sweet potatoe fries. She had been here before so I let her order. Very good food, great service, beer and cocktails. I would return if in the area again!! read more

Great, spacious place, fun vibrant atmosphere and excellent food. Some good veggie options too. Really enjoyed the trivia games shown on the big screen TV's that you can jump into using a phone app while you're waiting... Or eating. Their riverfront location is sweet! You can tell it's a big crowd favorite in the Bangor area and probably gets a lot of visiting folks too. read more

Great pumpkin cheesecake, the lime cake was great too but could use some more flavor (too custardy). Outside seating was nice and spacious with a great view. Staff was very friendly and they had a great door and Bev selection. Great for groups and sure has a nightlife after dinner hours. read more

While in Maine for a work trip, we stopped at Mason's for a quick lunch before a long car ride. Our party of 8 was quickly seated and greeted by a very friendly waitress. The menu features many amusingly named meals, all with creative elements that seem delicious. I got the sandwich on special that day, which was called the Gobble Gobble - turkey, peppers, olives, and more. I paired my sandwich with sweet potato fries. Our waitress was very attentive and fast, and the food was delicious. The serving sizes were great for the price. The vibes in the restaurant felt exactly what you'd expect from a brewing company in Maine, and they even have an outdoor seating area that looks very comfy. I hope I'm in Brewer again soon to try more of their fun menu items! read more

we ate some really good food. We had some really nice views. And we had some amazing service! This is a great place to come eat and bring all of your friends and family. We had two children with us, and they were able to runoff and play within our sight, but at a far enough distance that there, joyful noises didn't bother anybody around us trying to eat dinner with their parties. read more

Where do I start! Some reviews said it was loud, I call it a good loud with family and friends are having a good meal in a friendly place. The environment was a perfect pub style restaurant! The ladies behind the bar were friendly and welcoming right at the beginning! The lady who helped us really helped with what was really good and she was not wrong. I got the butter burger.....OMG!!! That's one juicy burger and you can taste the yummy Katie's butter...so good!!!!! My husband got the American burger and that was really good!!!! The dirty sweet potato fries were surprisingly good, whatever is ok those work!!!! So yummy! We were stuffed by the end, I couldn't finish my fries. We went during brunch time, but we were craving burgers, which both hit the spot. But I want to go back for the brunch menu and a special bar drinks ...another OMG! We will be back for sure!!!! read more

Let's just get straight to the point that I am a fan of Mason's. Located along the river in Brewer, Masons has indoor and outdoor seating. Dogs are welcome on the patio. Yea! The pizza is delicious, a bit heavy on crust, toppings are varied with interesting pizza topping combinations on the menu. I also love the Dirty Fries which a thick cut fries with seasoning and a special dipping sauce on the side. Burgers are large, cheesesteak is also good. This is a good place for Dry January fans as there are mocktail and NA beers in the menu. Seating is casual- tables and bar seating. A little loud when the restaurant is busy and seating can be close to your dining neighbors. This is a good place for families. The older kids can head out the back door and run around along the rail trail after lunch. Parking is easy although the lot can get full. Service has always been very good. read more

Wanted a beer and it was dinnertime. My wife said to check out what's available, and I came across Mason's Brewing Company. I made an excellent choice. We could have waited in the quite full restaurant to sit outside on the covered deck, or right away inside. We chose to sit inside. People of all ages were in the restaurant. With the way the restaurant is constructed, it gets quite lively and loud with the sound reverberating off the concrete floors and wide-open space. Tonight was very busy and even more so as the evening went on. Our server did her best to keep up with her tables. She did keep her pleasantries high and didn't show any signs of negative vibes. She was constantly on the move and didn't always come to help us leaving us to wait a little long. I started with a flight which included four beers and if it wasn't brewed at Mason's, then that choice was $1 extra. I had the Brown, Blueberry Cream, Diablo, and Hefelweisen; all Mason's. Am I allowed to say that the beers were the worst part of my meal when I'm at a Craft Brewhouse? I just did. Each were fine, and I liked the Blueberry Cream the best of the four, but none hit the spot where I said I needed to buy this again. For starters, my wife had the Garden Salad, and I had the Ahi Tuna Salad. Both were piled high on the plates. Mine included three or four nice pieces of Ahi and had greens, ginger, and a spicy drizzle which didn't immediately kick in. They were both quite good. For mains, we both went with the pizza. I had the Best Damn Pepperoni, and she did a Build Your Own with mushrooms, caramelized onions, green bell pepper, and ground beef. I was so surprised at how great these pizzas were. One of the best I've ever had and I've had a lot being from Philadelphia. The half-sphered pepperoni, the ricotta, the little hot and sweet red peppers, just divine. The menu said the dough is made locally with some of their beer in there. It just really hit the spot. The only complaint about my wife's pizza was that she wished there was more red sauce on it. Otherwise, perfecto. So we really liked Mason's a lot if not for their beer, but the food was awesome. Our server did her best and was very friendly. Everyone on staff seemed to be on their toes tonight. $75 not including tip for a flight of beer, a soda (Coke products here, yea!), two pizzas, and two salads. We had a great time and felt even better supporting local businesses. Mason's is not a chain, and we were told they might open a second location soon also in Maine. read more

Drinks were great. Taco and fries were good as well. The GF pizza however left a lot of be desired. Cheese wasn't melted and the dough was burnt. We ate two slices from each pie and left the rest. Would recommend anything else on the menu. read more

For the area, it was a decent place. We are used to breweries being more beer centered, and not a place you'd necessarily go for food first and then beer. We found some good beers and even had some delicious New York ciders, but it definitely felt like this was a restaurant first and beer stop second. I will say the view from the window and patio is gorgeous on a nice day and definitely enjoyed looking at while we sipped on our beer flights. read more

Went here on our last night in Maine. We ordered pizza cauliflower and a hotdog. They didn't have my husbands favorite domestic beer because it's more of a brew house. I ordered a aviation gin martini. The first did not taste like aviation gin. Maybe it was watered down or shaken to long but it tasted off. The second one tasted better. At $14. each, they shouldn't taste watered down! I mentioned to the waitress that it didn't taste like aviation gin. When she came back with the second one she said "I can assure you, it is aviation gin". I wasn't convinced ‍ read more

Nice brewery with a good bar food menu. All the beers I tasted were very good and bartender was very friendly and knowledgeable

Large dog friendly outdoor patio along the waterfront with beautiful views. Just be sure to hydrate because it was hot with limited breeze. Our server, Sienna, was super friendly and attentive. The teriyaki cauliflower was delicious with a very light batter which helped prevent them from being greasy. The IPL was bursting with hoppy flavor but light and crushable. The Cream Ale was awesomely smooth and creamy. Blueberry Cider was very good. And the Hipster Apocalypse Hazy IPA was highly piney and sweet. Loved this place all around. read more

While visiting Bangor, I stopped in here for a late lunch before a show at the Maine Savings Amphitheater. I sat outside which is a great setup, right on the river. Even in winter I'd imagine this would be nice as they had heaters and drop down tarps. I had the pepperoni pizza and a wheat beer. Both were very good, wish I could remember the name of the beer. My waitress was friendly and fast; she also gave some good tips on the amphitheater. If in Bangor, this is a spot I'd highly recommend you check out. read more

Fantastic beer and food. My partner had a burger ($16) and he loved it. Said the salt & vinegar fries are the best he has had in years. I had the grilled chicken ($16) with candied bacon, ham, cranberry aioli and Carmel used onions. I had this with a side of sweet potato fries with cinnamon and sugar. Everything was fantastic. We will be back. Recommended! read more

AMAZING! Such a cool spot on the water! Came here with a group of 12 coworkers for dinner and drinks. Ordered a spread of appetizers, drinks and entrees. Food was fucking fantastic. Best I've had in a while! Also the drinks were so creative with their names, and super tasty. Such a cool concept for a brewery. This place hit the spot and did not disappoint! It was funny how we ended up here, was on Apple Maps looking at nearby spots and pictures of this place popped up, I was like "HEY YOU GUYS CHECK OUT THIS URINAL, THATS HILARIOUS! WE NEED TO GO HERE AND YOU GUYS CAN GIVE ME A REVIEW ON THE URINAL" A must try if you're in town! Also love how they accommodated a big party and the server was phenomenal! read more

Great pizza and one of best Hazy IPA drafts i've had. service outstanding. great location as well.

Food is a 5...mmmm, DELISH! Wouldve tipped only the cook if possible tho, because.... First of all yes Fri night, but it was well staffed, quick seating, beers came, orders but then.... Dunno if the waitress just blocked us out or.... Service is a 2 and not even an apology, explanation or even a check up until 40min later we finally had to stop someone and ask whats up. We'd been watching after about 20min or so cuz biz was at least down 25% from when we walked in. ‍ We were seated quickly, ordered, the "snack" came in good time and then it's like we were invisible in spite of the staff having to pass us everytime they came in n out of the area. Finally my Dad spoke up and had to ask if we were inviisble, did they forget out order, did they even put the order in...? We ordered burgers, on the menu, no special requests, as is. It was NOT nearly as busy at this point as when we walked in yet people that came in after us appeared to have no issues with timely service. Not even an apology, a "let me check" a refill... nothing! Being attentive after taking an order apparently isnt a thing. And we were considering another beer and dessert but they lost that oppty quickly once we hit the 30min waiting mark with literally no attention at all. We were ready to get up, pay for the 2 beers n cheesy bread we had and bolt to McDs if need be. Really sad for what seems like a cool place to hang. And being it's in an area with many out of towners and locals coming and they just cant be bothered. Def will not recommend or go back in spite of the good food. Will let our hotel know to maybe drop this recommendation a while. read more

I was in town for work today and we stopped by for lunch. They have a huge outside seating space so it was great to sit outside in the sun, right on the water! I had one of their speciality burgers and it was very good. The service was great, and the food came out fast. I'll have to try their beer next time I'm in town. read more

They changed their menu since the last time I've been there. The addition to the building is nice and it is a boisterous place and good for friends and family. The pizza had too much pepper on the bottom of the crust - was overpowering the favor of the pizza. Other than that, always a good place to meet up for a day/night out. So it's cornmeal, which I love, (as opposed to pepper), on the bottom of the crust. My pizza definitely had pepper on the bottom - mixed in with the cornmeal. I like pepper, this was just very peppery. Otherwise, the cornmeal was black and spicy and got stuck all through my teeth, ha! The one time I didn't take a photo! read more

Wow...I am so disappointed with this place. After reading all the great reviews and hearing how we "HAD" to make a stop here on our Maine roadtrip...I can honestly say I would not choose to go back. Not only did wait over an hour for our simple order of a burger and side salad, but when we got our food ( we had yo ask our waiter to check on our food 3 times...and finally a totally different waiter brought it to us), but the burger was pretty average and not really hot (meaning it was sitting around for a while)...they charged us $3 for the addition of onion....and the salad that was supposed to have 'goat cheese crostinis' instead just had a sprinkling of feta, plus other had the wrong dressing. I had heard the big pretzels were a must try, but the 'full fixings' were not something I wanted...(I really soft pretzels with mustard or pub cheese...and NEITHER were offered) so I asked if I could just get a plain pretzel..like a 'side of bread' or something. I was told NO, they don't do that...you have to order the whole full fixing plate for $13. Ridiculous. We figured why not, but we're not fans of any of the sides ( pickled cabbage, cheese curds, raspberry jam and some sort of peanuty spread...and SWEET honey mustard only. No spicy mustard or cheese...and the pretzel itself was heavily seasoned with "everything" seasoning so you could barely taste the pretzel at all. Neither of us could eat more than a bite or two. We got the beer flight and were unimpressed with 3 out of the 4 we tried. 2 were flat and the coffee stout just tasted like weak coffee. The hazy IPA was pretty good, but nothing I would want to buy a 4pack of. All-in-all, the whole experience was just blah...and WAITING ( and we arrived at 3pm on a Saturday, post lunch rush and pre Happy hour...many empty tables and a LOT of bored servers standing around or folding napkins...there is NO reason it should have taken an hour to make a burger and a salad. Very sad...this was a place we really wanted to like, but it was a total miss. read more

Great food and good beer, great combination, waitress was attentive even with the place being very busy. I highly recommend Mason's.
