    Had one of Mike's specials the other day -- Chicken Pot Pie. Very tasty and generously sized. It warmed me up on a cold day. I'll be back.

    We came here after going to L.L. Bean for the day had the most amazing lobster roll with their…read morehomemade french fries and a handcrafted Margarita - it might be the best meal I've eaten in Maine in a long time. Lobster roll was as good Red's !

    UPDATE: Literally after an hour posting this I found out they were closing their doors for good in…read morea few days from now. :( After two huge plastic boats of fries, four pints of locally made beer/cider, tax, and a generous tip, we left Jameson Tavern having just spent around $60. Now, this might seem like a lot, but it's nearly the same price for half as much at most places in Portland right now (literally two small cocktails and one much smaller plate of fries). And the fries were GOOOOOOOOOOD. Perfectly golden on the outside, pillowy soft on the inside - if they had just been twice as thick and fried twice more, they would have been remarkably close to a true British chip! Five things: 1) Despite it seeming big, the interior of Jameson Tavern is pretty small. If you're a party of eight or ten, don't come here expecting to get seated quickly or even together (we watched this happen quite a few times). We were *very lucky* to be able to snag two seats at the bar (which is first-come, first-served and you can stay there as long as you want; great if you're the person at the bar, less great if you're a person wanting to sit at the bar). 2) The outdoor seating area might look open, but likely it's not. Ask the host. 3) The bathrooms here are smaller than the size of airplane bathrooms. 4) The history of this place is super interesting and worth noting: Essentially, it's been a bar since 1801. And it may have been where Maine leaders signed the paperwork to secede from Massachusetts in 1820 (displayed outside the building is a plaque donated by the Daughters of the American Revolution commemorating Jameson Tavern as the "Birthplace of Maine"). 5) The host was so grumpy it was initially off-putting enough that we considered leaving... but the bartender? AMAZING. I'm sorry I didn't get her name; she had glasses and a big smile. In the best way possible, she was loud, a little invasive, and a whole lot of friendly. Jackie Daytona vibes. Made everyone sitting there feel like they were somehow part of her extended family.

    My friend and I decided that Rolly's was going to be the place we would try for the month of May…read more We were not disappointed. The food was what I was expecting and hoping for....rich, indulgent food, that met my savory and sweet cravings. We were greeted immediately upon walking through the door and were instructed to sit any where we wanted. We had plenty to choose from around 10:30am on Saturday, even on a holiday weekend. All of the open tables, were clean and ready for new patrons. The restaurant was about half full and appeared to be mostly regulars, as they were chatting with the staff and each other. I love local places that know the locals that well. Our drink orders were taken within a minute of sitting. The hot chocolate were rich and creamy even without whipped cream. I opted not to have it added. I ordered a blueberry muffin as my "appetizer". They offer it as is, or grilled. I love it grilled and it was good and not too filling. For our meals we ordered a table pancake (meaning, a pancake for sharing). It was fluffy and perfectly good - nice and hot. They have "syrup" and it reminded me of being a kid and having Log Cabin syrup. I didn't ask, but it didn't taste like pure maple syrup. I ordered the corned beef hash skillet with a grilled english muffin. It was perfectly cooked and it was delicious. It tasted like canned corned beef hash and I was not mad about it. I truly wanted comfort food and this hit. My friend had the S.O.S. (gravy with beef and pork) AKA Sh*t on a Shingle. It looked soooo good and she stated the biscuit and gravy and meat were good. We took our leftovers home, which will tell you, the portions were decent, the food was delicious and no delicious food would be left behind. I recommend this restaurant if you are interested in diner food, with quick friendly service and plenty of space. I definitely want to come back and get the S.O.S.
