Our group had a burger, flank steak tacos, steak and cheese, the meatball trio and the burnt ends flatbread. Everyone was happy with their selections. Our server was really nice and very efficient.

Most people were sitting outside enjoying the weather so we were one of maybe 2 parties inside. The person behind the bar was very helpful and we ordered a mead and a glass of wine. Both were good! We also ordered fries and green bean fries. Both were actually really tasty. Since this place is so small inside, they don't have a full kitchen but they make it work! They have some dishes on the menu that make me question how in any world they get these on a plate without a full kitchen but they do it and they do it well. While we were eating, we heard multiple times how their lobster mac and cheese is they best thing they've ever eaten. Unfortunately, we were not there for anything involved, just a quick stop or else I would have been intrigued to try it. I would stop back in here for a chill vibe if I'm in the area. They seem like such good people that I'd love to support.

There's an outdoor area as well. I would definitely go here again if I'm in the area. It's a great place for a pre dinner drink or an evening with friends!

Orono Brewing Company was a brewery that I had on my list for a long time. So in the sense that I…read morefinally got to try their beer I am grateful for it. But the beer wasn't quite what I was hoping that it would be. I had the Tiger Style Fierce Pale Ale and thought it was just fair. Main thing was I didn't find it all that memorable and it was just hard to get into. Flavor features with this beer are juicy, citrusy, hoppy and sweet. It also has a smooth body to it. Unfortunately I wish I could have gotten into it more and maybe the pale ale wasn't the best choice here but alas that is how it all shook out.

It was crispy, perfectly sized pieces, very flavorful (I think it was teriyaki) and the portion was generous. We had the pizza special of the day (elote) with vegan cheese and it was decent. The breaded cauliflower app would have been better with some salt/flavoring in the breading and the brussel sprouts had great flavor and texture but they burnt them a bit and it took away from making them a 10/10. The environment was a little loud but the view of the river was nice and the server was pleasant even if a little busy and absent at times.

This location has the absolute worst bartenders at any location we've been to. Twice in 3 days, they have been inattentive with little or no folks at the bar. The first time, we just wanted beers. "Oh you'll have to wait, there a shift change". Second time, 7 people at a bar that handles 20-25, came in for dinner and beers. We waited over 10 minutes to be asked if we wanted to order food. Then another 15 minutes to pay the check. The location is super nice over looking the river with an outside deck. It's too bad staffing is such an issue. Be aware if you're coming to this location.

I really dig Bangor Beer. They're not located in "downtown" Bangor but just a few minutes out near…read morethe big box shopping area. Let me tell you, there is nothing "big box" about this place. It's quirky and fun. Outside is a garden area for nicer weather and I believe they have live music at times as well. Graffiti-style murals including Rick & Morty (can't find my exterior pics anywhere) and other fun stuff. They even had a bouncy house when we were there. And yep, we bounced around like kids. The interior of the brewery is also pretty quirky, chill, and fun. The employees and clientele are super cool & welcoming. They have a decent food menu that includes stuff from Oriental Jade (Asian restaurant that served Chinese and Japanese food). Oriental Jade had been around for decades. If you're a Stephen King fan, you know all about it. Their food is yum. Anyway, Bangor Beer has a lot of other offerings like fish & chips, burgers, typical fare that tastes anything but typical. The drinks: Yes they're a craft brewery and they also offer cocktails and mocktails. I've only had beer (did try the NA beer that had & it was good). Their pours are of the highest caliber. The taproom has 12-13 different beers on draft at any given time. And of course, beers to go (cans). Draft beers in growlers too. Oddball is probably my favorite. It's an oat stout that sits just right on the tastebuds. The 10-12 is a great IPA with just the right amount of hops. Total A+ spot.
