Okay, so I'll admit, I wish market price was more transparent. But I got some fried oysters that were tasty!

Good fish and chips with lovely view of the water. Fast service and affordable prices. Drinks were good!

The food looks like it's frozen from Costco. The view is nice and so is the service. Definitely will never eat there again. A nice place for drinks. read more

Stopped in for a lobster roll and steamed clams. Everything was fresh and delicious. The place can get busy, so pack your patience. read more

I wish I could give this place zero stars. It's horrible. Worst restaurant on the New England coast by far. For a place with such a great view you'd think they would at least try. You'd be better off buying some frozen chicken from the grocery store than eating here. Its the same stuff but they will charge you 26 dollars for a pile of fries with a couple overcooked chicken tenders on top. Worst garbage food and drinks. The owners must think that their view is worth the price, but they will find out soon when people stop showing up. Wake up, if you served decent food you'd make great money with that view, its a no brainer. But if you keep serving up turds, you'll be out of business. Even the guys that sell parking near the pier tell people to stay away. read more

$28 USD for a double margarita that's $40 Canadian that's highway robbery. food was terrible and the drinks were terrible. Go somewhere else way over price and not worth it read more

My boyfriend and I had the BEST service here! So good we came back 3 times before our vacation ended! Ashley was such a delight, she made us feel welcome and comfortable as it was our first time at old orchard. She was always smiling and had the best service and chatted us up while it was slow. She is the best!! Ask for her if you visit :) read more

I went to the bar that was on the side of the pier first, but the bartender, Nicole, was rude as hell so I left and went to the inside bar. Orianny was really nice inside and attentive. She made a vodka based orange crush (I'm from Maryland so it was definitely great to my standard) & ordered the lobster roll which I've never had before and thought it was great! read more

On vacay with my grandkids we had lunch at the pier. The overlook view on the deck above the Atlantic was great! Service was friendly and good. I had a lobster roll with chips and drawn butter market price and New England clam chowda. Since it was so cool the chowder was hot and really hit the spot! No w the lobster roll rocked the lunch well worth the $. Rock music plays as you eat and very laid back place to eat on ild orchard beach. Highly recommended! read more

Let's be clear. Come here NOT for the food, but for the views and experience. It's not everyday you can eat at the end of a pier with sweeping views of the beach and ocean!! It was pretty pricey. The food was average. Onion rings were horrible. Drinks were ok but too sweet. Take it for what it is- part of the experience. Service was really good. read more

Ordered a rum bucket and asked to switch the coconut rum with the pineapple rum due to the fact I am allergic to coconut and was told that bar tender couldn't substitute. So I had to switch for a different bucket and for 20 dollars for a rum bucket the customer should be able to substitute one rum for another. I know other bars will gladly do it. read more

Terrible service. Had to ask twice for someone to come to our table (each time told to sit and someone would come). Waited over 20 min without anyone so much as coming around to take a drink order. Terrible, terrible, overpriced food (teriakyi kabob) 1970's style overcooked chicken, steak, and green peppers covered in cheap La Choy grocery store sauce) for $29. Party of 4 which included two children. Realized after the fact they added in 18% tip (only supposed to be for a party of six) and we tipped 20% on top of that. So scammed into double tipping on terrible food and terrible service. Will never go back. Better off buying food from the boardwalk. Be weary, I think this double tipping is a scam because no one seems to be motivated to actually work for their money. Employees sitting at the bar and standing up eating themselves all the while customers sitting and waiting... read more

The kid who stands at the front letting people in on Fridays nights is insufferable. He's rude, insulting, unfriendly, condescending etc. fatherless behavior. It's giving Napoleon Syndrome.

First impressions, not friendly, not attentive, miserable waitstaff. We make eye contact, no bartender acknowledges us. One waiter is wearing sunglasses, so unprofessional. Our bartender(with a red beard) , instead of asking us what we would like for dinner, he is eating his dinner. The other bartender (girl with braid) is not even making eye contact to ask us if we'd like to order anything. These 2 bartenders are rude, think they are better every customer that comes to have a drink. These 2 bartenders are , nasty, useless, miserable, incapable of serving anyone drinks or food with a somewhat personality or a positive attitude. WE WILL NOT RETURN AND NEVER RECOMMEND OR SUGGEST THIS ESTABLISHMENT. Horrible service which makes us/anyone not want to order food or return. NEVER AGAIN, UNLESS OWNER/MANAGEMENT does something different with the waitstaff! read more

We went to this place for atmosphere and scenery to sit down and eat. Definitely was a stunning view but the food was lack luster. We ordered the fish n chips. We figured we would play it safe by going with that. Unfortunately this place couldn't get that done right. First off the batter was really no batter. I literally could see the fish flesh like it was fried with no batter. You can definitely see in the picture i took. Then the fries were trash. Just a bunch of over cooked super crunchy tiny broken fries and just a few good fries mixed in to cover up the bad ones. Cooks were being slick by taking the fish and laying it over the heinous fries. My biggest disappointment is when you lay a hot steaming fish filet over my fries. Automatically turns my fries soggy. The actual haddock was fresh so thats why i gave 2 stars. Definitely not worth $27. The batter was straight garbage. They definitely got cooks not chefs. Might go here for drinks but not food. Told the manager pay attention to cooks because they be lacking frfr. read more

We did not arrive to eat, but quickly found a seat at the bar and were immediately greeted. This is the place to go for large mix cocktails. I highly recommend the deep blue Sea rum bucket. Very lively environment, and lots of smiles. Doors remain open to allow the seabreeze to drift through the establishment. Worth a stop if you're here for a party. read more

Yikes! My mom bought lobster tacos ($20) and when they came out one taco had two pieces of lobster that were the size of quarters. The other two had very small amounts as well. We've been to the restaurant for a few years now and we love getting the tacos, but management and quality has just gone downhill. My mother spoke to the waiter politely and came to find out he was the manager, he went back with the tacos and came back and said "he had to fight with the kitchen to get more lobster" which I don't really understand because you're the manager but okay. Awful quality of food- will not be returning. I wish I took a picture of when they came out. They were just awful. read more

Its a Pier with a Patio and a Pub. Went on a random Tuesday night, there was a cover... At first when we walked in it was empty and all you could hear was crazy loud house music... We continued to walk back to the bar at the back & there was a live musician/comedian Ordered a drink and a beer, it came in a can & a Plastic cup... At that point I was all set. I dont need super classy, but the BF is all set with Canned beer!! Somewhat Divey & pretty typical crowd for the area but Its a bar and touristy... read more

Great views, and that's about it Mixed drinks were syrupy sweet and basically un-drinkable. service is pretty lackluster, food was very hit-or-miss. Wife had the fried scallop plate: tiny, rubbery scallops over decent French fries. I had the pulled pork sandwich, which was a good bite. Kids had a cheesesteak and basic chicken fingers, which were also fine. Not much else to say, place is a dive if you're in to that sort of thing. read more

Stopped here for lunch. This place is not good. Food was bad. Kids didn't even like their meals. Service was spotty. Location is best thing going for it, but this place is probably best for power drinkers and amateur happy hour. read more

This bar at the end of the Old Orchard Beach pier has wonderful views and a great dive bar feel. The bathrooms are gross-only one of three stalls was working. The food isn't great and it's pricey (normal seafood pricey), but if you must eat here, the crab Rangoon appetizer and lobster salad are good. You get plenty of lobster, it wasn't chewy, and the salad was fresh. I have had bad luck with the fried seafood. It comes out soggy and appears to have been frozen. You come here for the views and not the food read more

I was there at night and there was a guy working with a beard with another girl a bigger girl. It was the outside bar. Her mouth was horrible. She was very rude I could not believe they would let somebody work behind the bar with a mouth like that. It was horrible I have been there numerous times and never got treated the way I did. The guy was absolutely delightful. He was a teacher. I do not know what she was but if I was that establishment I would not have her behind the bar a disgrace. read more

I usually don't like to try new places unless I've checked the reviews. I didn't get a chance this time. Thankfully, we ordered calamari to start while we perused the menu and checked yelp for pictures of food. The calamari would've been enough to send us away, but listen to the reviews! Food is bad, view is nice. Come to drink and nothing else. read more

If you're looking for the place to get insulted and scammed, this is the place to be. We had a party of 5 and on the menu it says if we have a party of 6 or more we need to pay their gratitude. They basically tried to put the 18% gratitude in there to sneak it in when we had terrible service and when we did the math it was actually 20%. The math didn't make any sense. When we asked for the manager he was an idiot and called us simple people when we asked for the check to get fixed. Server came up to us three times the entire night. He didn't deserve no 20% didn't even deserve a tip if that was an option. Full of rude disrespecting people towards their customers. Good lobster though. read more

I've been here a few times. Its nice during the day to sit out and have a drink by the beach. Food is so so, nothing I'd go back their for. Drinks are on the expensive side. One thing I really like about it is that they have good bands here sometimes. read more

Pier Patio Pub - Really good band - Bars Near Me - Old Orchard Beach, Maine

Don't bother. You're just paying tourist prices to sit on a pier. Rubbery overpriced fried food. Microwaved mac n cheese for the kids from those blue styrofoam containers (you know the one, the EZ kind), and I'm pretty sure the haddock from my sandwich gravely wronged the cook somehow while alive because it was left in the fryer several extra minutes just to make sure it suffered in death. At least my jaw got a good workout due to the chewiness, and my wife was pretty sure the chicken in her Caesar wrap was the precooked kind they sell right next to the chicken nuggets in the grocery store. Surely there are better options in walking distance in OOB. read more

We came here on July 1st 2023, and our servers were extremely slow. The food was stale, cold (and wrong, they didn't even give me what I ordered) so imagine my shock when the bill came out as $448 because they chose to combine our bill with several other groups of family members, tax it all on top of it and include a $70 "automatic" tip because the bill was so huge when they charged us all in that group rather than each family group because it was "easier" that way. They failed to let us know about the enormous tip and tax ahead of time. I ended up paying over $200 of the bill for a junk Pepsi and the worst lobster roll and service I've ever had. Terrible, and dishonest servers. What they did simply wasn't necessary and is a very scammy way to earn tips. Avoid at ALL costs. read more

I love the scenery and how you can see the water through the floor. The food appeared to be fresh but average for the area and overpriced which would be fine except for the next part. The view of one of the kitchen staff picking his nose while looking me in the eye was fun. The other guy wiping sweat off his forehead with his gloves was charming too while he also wolfed down food putting those gloves hands to his mouth. The waiter was really nice and attentive. Food- pretty good Server-awesome Kitchen staff- gross Smell of bar- sour and dirty looking. read more

The service at this bar was by far the worst i have ever seen. i was told i couldn't use my cash that i had because the bartender wouldn't have gotten the tip she wanted. i am always a person who tips, as i have worked in service before, but to tell a customer how to tip you is very rude. it was the bartender downstairs on wednesday night. I have never once had a bar tender ask me once nevermind TWICE to tip her more. Horrible service and drinks weren't great. just go to the brunswick honestly. read more

Wandered onto the pier for lunch on a sunny Wednesday in May, looking for anything open near the motel we'd just checked into. (most restaurants and pubs are still closed this time of year it seems, but we'd only stopped into Old Orchard Beach for a night on the way home from a road trip anyway, so no biggie. There was one family seated already at the Pier out of at least a dozen tables. It was too windy in most spots, so we took a table next to them that was next to the kareoke stage, with less of a breeze. In the actual summer, the purpose of going here is to sit in the sun on the ocean in a sort of party atmosphere. Friendly, standard service. Typical 'boardwalk' food/nothing special, nothing terrible. My Caesar salad was a bit too garlicky, but not bad, served on a cardboard plate. My mozza sticks seemed out of a box and probably were, but okay. My partner's roast beef & cheddar wrap was fine, with side of potato chips. I'd go back here for drinks if ever stopped into the beach area again, and probably get a fries and onion rings if I wanted a snack, but wouldn't go back for the food itself. I actually came down with quite a case of heart burn about an hour after leaving here, which I never get, but can't say for sure it was the food that caused it or something else. read more

My wife and I just got married and she's changing her name so for the moment she has a temporary license, we were met by an incredibly rude bartender who wouldn't take that as her form of ID. To her credit she did go check with the manager who also said they can't take it. When I asked if I could talk to her to clarify why they couldn't take that ID the bartender said "you can talk to her but she's probably gonna flip out" We went and spoke with her and fortunately she didn't "flip out" but she was even more rude than the bartender. Would not recommend if your looking for pleasant service. We went to another bar on the pier and they took our forms of ID with no problem. read more

We just had some drinks here because, well, anyone non-touristy knows better than to order food right off the pier. So, please note this review is simply based on our beverage experience at the bar. The prices for drinks were enough to make us cringe-and after standing at the end of the bar for 10 minutes waiting to order a drink, the bartender way oversold us. I wanted a Rum Punch, which is on display on each side of the bar. The bartender apparently told my boyfriend that there was an option for a bucket or a bowl, which, he felt as if she gave the impression that the bowl was smaller. $18 later-I got a small fishbowl of punch, which, I couldn't taste ANY alcohol out of. Come for the atmosphere-it's nice to be at the end of the pier and watch the gulls, fish, and beach traffic, but that's the ONLY reason we would return. read more

Food was gross especially for the price... I paid $11 for 5 deep friend (burnt) Mac n cheese bites that were gross... and then $14 for the worst calamari I've ever had... it didn't even look like calamari.... ridiculous. Will never order food there again. My brother said his $10 cocktail was pure juice... read more

The food was all fried- scallops and a platter. I mean how bad could it be? It was terrible. It tasted rubbery not fresh and like it was precooked and nuked before being served. We stayed to have drinks and at the end asked for two separate tabs. On paid cash the other paid card. The two people paying were out on the dock when the waiter returned and asked why a tip wasn't left..... rudely. Meanwhile I had no idea what was happening and the bill with the credit card had not yet been completed. He was a bit premature on the assumption he got no tip. We did indeed tip but it kind of put a dagger on the evening. Not sure how a waiter could be so abrasive to approach a customer this way. Won't ever be returning! read more
