I think this place has real potential. We're in the area temporarily and have noticed there's not much without driving 20+ minutes away, so we gave this place a shot. I was honestly shocked to see a real veggie option on the menu that wasn't a veggie burger (although they have that too), so I had to try the chimichurri tofu. It was cooked well - 4 slices cut thin enough to give it a good crispy exterior. The chimichurri sauce was tasty. However, it feels like whoever created this dish has never cooked with tofu before or at least not very much. My suggestion would be marinating the tofu before cooking. The chimichurri made it somewhat enjoyable (I did finish it all!) but the flavor dissolves quickly as you chew through the tofu. I think marinating it will really seal the deal on that dish. Otherwise, the service was great, very friendly and very prompt. The building is quaint and bigger than it looks from the outside. I think my entree was a little overpriced for what I got at $23, but I digress. I see the vision and wish them success. read more

Nonesuch River Brewing - Chimichurri Tofu - Breweries Near Me - Poland, Maine

I was excited to try this place after seeing that it was so highly rated, but now that I've visited I'm unfortunately not sure what all the hype is about. But it wasn't all bad--I'll start with the positives! The staff were great--super friendly, welcoming, and helpful. I also enjoyed the fries, which were plentiful, and the pomegranate blonde ale, which was very refreshing. Although we didn't play, I was happy to see a stack of games on the bar. We were seated upstairs at the recommendation of the hostess. The decor was a little dated but it gave me a cozy and nostalgic feel. Now to the not-so-positives. I ordered the caprese sandwich and in the first bite, I was alarmed to feel something hard, sharp, and un-chewable. Confused, I had to fish whatever it was out of my mouth and found a small piece of what felt like some kind of wood. I realized after a couple minutes that it was the same color and texture as the toothpicks that held the sandwich together. I'm not sure how it got in my mouth--maybe a piece broke off in the kitchen and got stuck in or on the sandwich--but it was the first bite and I wasn't anywhere near where the toothpicks stabbed the sandwiches. Luckily that was the only splintered piece I found in my food, but I was very cautious for the rest of the meal. Honestly, if not for this, this probably would have been a 4-star review, but it put me a little on edge for the rest of the experience. The sandwich itself was decent--the bread was a little charred, but I actually kind of prefer that myself. Caprese sandwiches are always simple and good, as long as the ingredients are decent. The worst part for me was the price. I'm happy to pay a little extra for a great meal, but $18 for a caprese sandwich feels steep. I'm not from around here, so maybe this is normal in these parts where there are limited dinner options. My wife's tofu dinner was $23 for a small portion--back home we could get twice as much tofu for half the price. I always thought city life was more expensive, but I've learned my lesson here! read more

First time to visit this location. Lovely view of the lake, with outdoor seating on a back deck of the restaurant, and picnic tables on the shore of the lake. The onion rings appetizer was the hit of the evening! be sure to ask for extra sauce. Our party had two sandwiches. One we got with the side of fries, and the fries are some of the best we have ever had. The side salad was very good and generous in portion. Service was friendly and effective. read more

Nonesuch River Brewing - Great onion rings. Ask for extra sauce. Delicious! - Breweries Near Me - Poland, Maine

We were here before - right when it became Nonesuch and the experience at that time was - well, not great! We thought we'd stop today and give 'em another try. It was quite good! The only thing that made it not five star was that it seemed to take a while (I blamed the caesar salad - which was wonderful - but wondering if they had to "make it".) I had the burger, an extremely good burger - with Pineland smoked cheddar, bacon and the works. And, speaking of works - the onion strings were sooooo good (but there were a LOT of them!) Wayne was being good, had the caesar as his side, to go with what he called one of the best Italian sandwiches - it was the NRB Italian. We asked Terri for extra plates because I had some of his salad and he had some of my onion strings. I had a Pilsner and Wayne enjoyed a marzen - both were quite good. Bonus that on 10/14 we were seated on the outside patio - it was sunny, a bit breezy, but amazing. read more

I love that Nonesuch has come to this region! I've gone to the big barn location in Scarborough several times, and was very excited to see their brews and bites land in the former Cindy's Dockside location. This is a prime location for people from the region looking for a nice night out as well as for "people from away" passing through. I loved the service and the view. The food was very decent for pub fare. Plenty of parking. I had a wonderful time with friends. My only complaint was that space-wise is it still felt like the previous establishment. Nonesuch has no shortage of creativity - make this place yours! read more

A pleasant evening sitting on the deck looking out at Range Pond. While I only had fries, the aioli sauce on the side was a delicious extra. And the Downeast Cider was excellent. Our server was funny and friendly. Honestly, it was the nicest visit so far. Highly recommend it. read more

Wow, what a surprise. We thought we were going to a typical brew pub. Two groups of 12 of us arrived and were accommodated within 15 minutes. The staff was super attentive and appreciative of our business. Then the food; NOT pub food. Excellent and well presented. Looking forward to going back next summer when in Poland, ME. read more

Had a great dinner here last week! The food is outstanding! Delicious Parmesan fries and amazing Mushroom pizza. The staff was friendly and helpful with suggestions. It's on the pricier side but there always seems to be a coupon floating around or on the internet. And the food doesn't disappoint so at least you are getting your moneys worth. The beer is great too! The design of the restaurant is a little tired and unconventional but we will definitely be back! read more

Went there for the first time today. The staff was great. The food was delicious and plenty of it. Great view and ambience. Loved it and will be back. read more

We were excited to check this place out as we're local so we're scoping it out as a potential "regular". We visited July 3rd and sat outside at a picnic table overlooking the boats docked there and people heading out to kayak. In my experience, outdoor dining is sometimes lacking in service. Not here! These guys were amazing and we had the best meal and the staff was beyond attentive. Hubby got the fish and chips, and I got the cobb salad with chicken. Hubby said it was delicious and nicely priced based on the portions. My Cobb salad was amazing! The chicken was cooked perfectly. The bacon was real bacon! and all the dressings and dips for my salad and hubby's fish and chips tasted homemade. read more

Cool hole in the wall kind of brewery.... They had just opened a month ago so a lot of changes to come, but great service and great bar food with microbrew selections. Overlooks a beautiful lake, convenient to Sunday River. Good pit stop on the ride home to Mass / RI... read more

This place is recently taken over by Nonesuch River brewing. Menu is classic pub fare. I had the Duxelle burger which was pretty good and very close to rare, as ordered. Really wish that Restaurants started using better (sourdough) buns for burgers though. We also had the thin onion rings (no batter at all) which were nice and crispy (portion was large for 2 people). My partner the fried chicken sandwich which was nice and crispy with jummy classic coleslaw. A plus was that the buns were lightly toasted so they were warm. All in all a decent, if not special, place. read more

What a great restaurant in Poland, Maine. Waitstaff is super friendly, food is great and the views from the outside tables are spectacular, especially at sunset. Highly recommend the Bang Bang Shrimp but you really cant go wrong. Great food, great staff, great times. We'll be back! read more

Bar food menu that is well executed. Pleasant staff and nice location. Will be back hope to see them succeed

Best food for miles around Poland. This is a "notch above" place to eat. The menu is creative, well prepared and it's not bar food. And the service was friendly, even on a crowded night. read more

If you're headed to Sunday River, or Oxford Casino, this is great place to eat. Nice selection of brews (try Emergency) and good food. Kids menu, too. Bang Bang Shrimp were very good. Burgers and fish sandwiches, too. Great service and friendly staff. Try it, you'll like it!!! read more

4.4 stars. We've been twice now. The setting is nice and they seem to be dedicated to making it nicer. The beer is solid. The staff and manager/owner are outstanding. The food is surprisingly, some of the best around. Everything is made on site, and many of the ingredients and meats are locally sourced. Excellent all around. I can't wait for them to spruce up the building and decor a bit! read more

This was kinda odd. I've been to Nonesuch in Scarborough before and it's a beautiful expansive building, high ceilings, and gorgeous gleaming hardwood. This place has a Walmart rug from the 90s and bar stools and tables straight out of your grandfathers basement. Still, it's right on Range Pond and offers lovely views. Nonesuch has very good beer and it's food is top notch. I got the Cubano and it was awesome. Bring on the renovation. read more

Over priced, Orders were not correct, food that wasn't ordered was brought to us. Risotto had a bad texture and tasted like plain oatmeal.

Third time we went. Strike three they are out. It was my husband's birthday dinner. He ordered fish n chips $22. The fish was over cooked. The three pieces were too crunchy to eat. He had to throw the coating away. I ordered the scallops with risotto and squash puree. The scollops were good. The risotto tasted like overcooked rice that had been sitting around for some time. No flavor! There was a spoonful of orange liquid over a tiny part of the rice. Maybe a spoonful but the rice absorbed it so quickly there was no flavor. Very disappointing! We had gotten fish chowder to start. It was barely warm and then I found a bone in mine so I was done. I had a margarita. They do not do frozen. I have had others that were not frozen. This one was not enjoyable at all. Mostly ice cubes in a small glass. We spent $112 before tip. What a terrible experience. The two times before the food was okay. We thought maybe it was because they were just starting up. But we definitely won't be going back. Their menu is limited and everything we have tried has been terrible. I would take a pass if I were you. The bar was full of loud guys drinking so it was hard to talk. read more

Stopped in here with a friend for lunch. Wait staff was friendly and attentive. Casual dining room with a large fireplace at one end, with windows overlooking a small lake marina. With the all-wood interior, it was a little noisy, but not too bad. Was expecting typical bar food, but were we ever wrong! Had the small plate Italian mussels (which actually was a large plate) with thin slices of sausage in an incredible broth, complete with rustic toasted bread to soak it up with. It was superb! We highly recommend you stop in at this little gem, you won't regret it. read more

We enjoyed our visit to Nonesuch, there were a lot of positives, food was very good with the exception of the fish chowder,it was probably the worst fish chowder I have ever had, no flavor at all! Portions are good, but found food the best very pricey. The wait staff were very pleasant, noise level is very high. Would go back again. read more
