Haven't been back for a while, but has to stop in for a Santa's Reinbeer while it's available on draft. Went to my go to which is a caprese sandwich with salt and vinegar fries. I have to say, was bummed with the sandwich. It has always been fresh tasting and refreshing but my bun was burnt and that flavor kind had ruined my favorite. That's why I could go five stars as always. Service is always prompt and friendly. The atmosphere is always comfy with that log cabin feel.

Poutine

We stopped in for lunch and loved everything. I thought their IPA was amazing. Poutine is also worth getting and I loved the fresh haddock on my salad.

Nice brewery and restaurant in a beautiful summer day in Maine! I had the IPA flight and the hot fried chicken sandwich!

Onion Strings, Kids Chicken Strips

Was in town and popped in for lunch while running errands with my son and was really impressed. The main lot isn't very large but there is additional parking across the street. The space itself is pretty cool - it here's a good amount of seats but the tables are not on top of one another. You can see into the brewery portion where they make the beer too. We walked in without a reservation and got sat within 5 minutes. The service overall was great. For beer I had a pint of the Pale Ale. My son got the chicken tenders and fries and I ordered a fried chicken sandwich with the onion strings. Everything was REALLY tasty, but the onion strings were such a large portion. Would definitely recommend

Fried chicken sandwich

Found this place with yelps help. Big open farm house kind of feel brewery. Had a bright and clean feel and I was expecting typical brew pub food but it was totally unexpected how good the food was. A lot of locally sourced ingredients and even the gin I ordered was local. Started with calamari and that was amazing! Highly recommend it! Had the fired chicken sandwich which came out moist and crispy, The mushroom pasta that had local mushrooms that was equally as delicious. The pasta was made with some sciracha infusion and it was cooked perfectly. Ended with a tiramisu that was as good as any italian restaurant. Servers were awesome and gave good suggestions! Wish I wasn't there just a night to try more dishes!

Stopped here after a long afternoon at the UNH graduation. Found through Yelp! This is definitely worth the visit even if it seems a little out of the way. It's actually only minutes from the Maine Mall. We stopped in at 7:30 on a Saturday night and were seated right away. Our server was Erik and he was attentive without being annoying and helpful when we said that we were first time visitors. We had the salt & vinegar French fries to start. I had the smokehouse burger with a salad for the side and my husband had the pulled pork bowl. Both were very good. The drinks were great as well. The open loft style building is a little loud, but is very beautiful. Would recommend especially for those who'll want craft beers.

THE ONION STRINGS!!!! Must have at Nonsuch! Super flavorful. The pre-teen girls passed the bowl from the other end of the table asking for a refill. Strong second: The ice cream sandwich (the cookie was warm and soft! What ice cream sandwich dreams are made of.) Third: The brussels with cranberry Super nice facility, love the chalet style and exposed wood. Large space with inside and outside being utilized. Smart design plan. Large parking lot- actually 2 parking lots (one across the street.) Kudos to None for being able to accommodate our party of 11 on a Saturday afternoon around 2pm. Thanks! Our server was a little odd. He gave me a pushback when I asked to just order everything all at one. We had 6 kids with us (2 under 4)- this wasn't my first rodeo but I assume he didn't have kids based on his response. He finally gave in to me. We tried to be as helpful as possible ordering efficiently for him. He said he would bring my friend a sampler of a beer and brought him a large glass of beer? My only dislike was the pork in the poutine lacked flavor. The gravy was delicious but the pork was down right bland. Killed the whole poutine order for us. True score: 3.75

I had a fish sandwich and the onion strings. They were both absolutely delicious! I can't wait to go again.

Run of the Mill is just that - a local beer-slinging, gastro-pub that can serve both as a hangout…read moreat the bar & a easy sit-down meal mid-day. My favorite part is that it still feels part of the mill system while having an updated aesthetic. It doesn't feel out of place - it feels right IN place. I normally come here to have a beer or two with a friend & catch up when I'm in the area, I enjoy their beers & they usually have one or two new drinkable things kicking around on their menu - I have yet to try a beer I haven't enjoyed. They have a fairly decent menu but I typically stick to pretty common mainstays - I've never had a bad experience. Service is always friendly & attentive.

We were swinging through and saw the sign for this and decided to stop in and grab a bite to eat in…read morethe outdoor seating area. First issue, parking. We had to park at the lot near the mill buildings and water and walk a pretty good distance to get to the restaurant but I guess I could use a few steps. Walked in it was very loud where they wanted to seat us under the canopy where there were some unruly bar patrons so they brought us to a quieter area. We sat for a long while before being greeted by our server. But we still wanted to give it a shot. We ordered poutine with portobello mushrooms and the three tables around us got their full meals before we got our appetizer. Then, she took our main course order and like the app, the food took forever and we are usually very patient. The server was super nice but just was very slow and the fries in the poutine were cold. The main course was a root salad that my wife thought was pretty good with turnips and vinaigrette. I had clam chowder and calamari/shrimp dish ... I paid almost 20 bucks for the calamari and got about 5 pieces and 4 small shrimp and the chowder had no flavor. We then asked for a box to put her salad in and the waitress forgot. Until she realized as she was dropping off the check. I don't think we will be back .. maybe just for the outdoor patio ambiance but, not the food.

Which was a new style for me, something unique for a restaurant classic staple. The broccoli was great, it just wasn't bite size, so I had to cut each one with my fork and knife each time. Which I feel like the kitchen could definitely make the broccoli florets smaller. But that's just nitpicking to be honest. It was quite a large quantity, so I took the rest home for my "Before bed second dinner". Service was lovely, very sweet and festive bunch. We visited before Christmas time.

We were traveling to the area, coming in late at night after a long drive from Acadia NP. I noticed…read morethis tavern due to their outdoor lighting and saw they had quite a few people eating inside and in the outdoor seating area. Lucky for me they had a special listed that night of something I had been craving for. A nice slice of Prime rib roast! I knew I was taking a risk since we had just arrived before dinner service was ending but we were greeted by the waitress who said the rib roast was still available. My husband had their Parmesan Crusted Haddock with a pretty decent looking Garden salad and Sweet potato fries. I asked if it was possible to get a piece of prime rib medium rare and they made it happen. Their sides of mashed potatoes and spears of broccoli was very generous and tasted delicious. The rib roast was moist and tender with a nice container filled with Au jus. The dining room area was practically empty so we had the space almost to ourselves. We happily inhaled our food and were given a nice period of privacy. 3 large screen TVs were on in this area so my husband enjoyed watching some games he had missed. The rib roast was just right and was very delicious. The setting is comfortable and a bit dark but the food presented was a real treat. It seems they are the hang out place of many locals and I can see why. You don't expect it but the outdoor seating area also includes a fire pit to enjoy on these cool nights. I can see why many locals and guests return. The wait staff attendant was busy cleaning tables and finishing up for the evening and looked in on us a couple of times only towards the end of our meal. Not as attentive as say other establishments but then again she looked like she was covering jobs of more than one person. Service can be affected in this regard but I'm not going to ding her for doing double duty and working so hard. The bar area looked well stocked and was attended by at least a couple of bar staff. The clientele looked like locals mixed with some who came from the nearby hotels in the area like us. The gatherings looked friendly and just enjoying time together. The outdoor seating area is well lit with a very nice seating area around a fire pit. Their listed specials looked very tempting and I'm just glad I got my hunk of prime rib to enjoy. Nicely done Coppersmith Tavern.

We arrived in Maine on Saturday and made reservations at the Chart Room for Sunday, Unfortunately,…read morethe only time available was 8:45 pm. We were fine with that as it was the birthday of a member of our group. The problem with that was we really felt rushed from the moment we walked in the door. I'm sure staff was ready to go home for the night but if reservations are that late, they should be prepared to allow people to eat without feeling rushed. As annoying as that can be, my BIG problem follows: we were thrilled to be able to bring our little dog and to see they had a dog menu. We ordered the chicken from the dog menu for her. I was hand feeding her pieces (thankfully didn't just let her eat it on her own, as she probably would have eaten all of it!). When she had eaten almost half of it, I tasted a little piece and was super surprised to taste the spices added. I would have thought that it would be pretty bland. We asked the waitress what was added and she accommodated us by bringing the can of spices the cooks had used. It included salt, onion and garlic... all things that can be toxic to dogs. I spent the next few days worried about whether our little girl would have a reaction which really put a damper on our vacation. The waitress tried to make things right but shame on the cooks!! If you're going to have a dog menu, you should know what's safe to feed them.
