    Great place to dine. The food was delicious and hit the spot. Monique was attentive and friendly. Will definitely come back in the future.

    Chicken fingers and pretzel bites apps

    What a great place to stop over when on the seacoast. We have long been a fan of their beers. We went deep sea fishing and popped in here on the way to a job in Maine. They have a great happy hour too. We arrived wind burned, cold, and hungry. Ordered each a big IPA, and then the large size chicken fingers, and the pretzel bites. The chicken fingers are some of the best I have ever eaten. The pretzel bites with beer cheese were just okay, but boy were those chicken fingers the best. The large portion of chicken finger is massive (they aint lying) We ended up eating the last couple the next day in the hotel room for breakfast, and they were still delicious cold. Staff was friendly and attentive, and caught that the pretzel bites hadn't come out with the chicken tenders. Nice location, it has outdoor seating too. The only real criticism is there only being two bathrooms on the ground floor, there was one more upstairs and that was also occupied. It can be really annoying when people in a group all decide to use the facilities at the same time, it can really back up the flow of things.

    What an incredible place! The outdoor patio is fantastic, the food is great, and the live music absolutely amazing! Perfect for a relaxed evening with friends or family, especially great if you have kids or dogs, there's something for everyone here. I love that there are lawn games and a beautiful forest setting. Such great vibes, I'll be here every warm weekend!

    They don't take reservations but have call ahead seating. We had a large group so planned to eat earlier than normal. They were able to seat us, hosts were friendly and accommodating of our large group. Waiter was friendly and attentive, coming back to the table multiple times to check on us. The live music was an added bonus. Beer flights and mixed drinks were great, some creative options. Food was better than expected from a a brew pub. Wings were great along with the tortillas chip dip. We had the chicken sandwich, beef tips, and hot chicken sandwich. All very good. Especially the brussell sprouts in hit sauce side. Solid meal, would definitely recommend and come back.

    The food is tasty. The staff are very friendly . I'm not a beer person, but the Beer they create tastes great. I like the pineapple orange coconut sour!

    "Small" Chicken Tender app w/Finestkind (the BEST) sauce & garlic parm (good but get Finestkind!!!)
    Anita W.

    Delicious food, great atmosphere, yummy drinks, friendly service! Their "Finestkind" sauce NEEDS to be sold by the GALLON!! It is AH-MAY-ZING!!! Their "small" order of house made chicken fingers was incredibly fresh, juicy & perfectly seasoned/battered & fried - it was the most delectable "shovel" for their Finestkind sauce!! The Blueberry Key cocktail was yummy as well. I was with a large party & everyone seemed to enjoy their food & drinks.

    On a multi stop father's day drive, Smuttynose was one of our stops. Beer garden was very quiet &…read morewe were able to hang out with a flight and an old brown dog. Then we popped over to the restaurant and grabbed a table for some food. We only ordered chicken tenders, which came out quickly and were sweet and crispy. Our server was nice, they were a little disorganized and I think we would sit in the " bar service" area next time and just buy stuff ourself and bring it outside. Overall, good time, nice place and they had beers that were not IPAs so those are all good in my book.

    The Smuttynose Tasting Bar beer garden on a warm, late summer day is just about as good as it gets…read more I'm known to travel long distances to visit breweries with working cats. While Smuttynose doesn't have a cat (that I'm aware of), we were pleasantly surprised to meet the resident good boy, a black lab named Willy! What a treat. He is so friendly and freely roams the bar and beer garden. Cute pup aside, I love their facility. The outdoor area hosts a variety of seating options, including my personal favorite: adirondack chairs. This place would be an ultimate summer hang if I lived closer! You don't even have to go inside to order a beer - just walk up to the order window. I tasted their fall offers: Oktoberfest and Pumpkin Ale. I thoroughly enjoyed both, even purchasing a variety pack to trek home with me that included both the Oktoberfest and Pumpkin Ale. Their flagshop brown ale is called Old Brown Dog, and when we visited, they had a stronger version on tap - Very Old Brown Dog. The Very Old Brown Dog is one of the better strong beers I've tasted in some time. Definitely a sipper, especially if you're driving - but boy, it was smooth and very tasty in spite of it's sub 10% abv. The tasting bar is no frills at it's core, but clean bathrooms, fun merch, and good beer are flowing. There are some snacky foods available for purchase, but their restauarant is just across the parking lot if you're seeking a substantial meal. Lots of parking, great outdoor gathering space, smaller indoor seating area - would be great for summer hangs. Lots of tasty beer and a good doggy await. Smuttynose is one of my favorite breweries I've visited in recent memory.

Very family friendly- my daughter brings her kids here to see the farm animals. My sister enjoyed Lox Toast. I had the Korean BBQ Wings, as did one of my friends on the recommendation of Erica, our server. Delicious! Of course, we had some of their delicious brews. My sister did some samples and loved them all-Big Galoot Grapefruit, Rule the Roost, Ninja of the North & Hank's Pale Ale. I had a Cheek Squeezer which was very puckery and a Vanilla Stout #3 which was yummy. We had excellent service and were not rushed at all. Recommended without hesitation.

On weekends they open earlier so we popped in for some beers and an app. Very nice outdoor and indoor space, I LOVE that they had dark beers and not just IPAs like many breweries these days, particularly in the summer. We sat at the bar (as per usual for us) and service was fast and friendly. No complaints! I wish we had gone for lunch or dinner because the food coming out looked great. We got the onion dip to help the beers go down and that was fantastic. They grow all sorts of veggies on the premesis and they source local cheese/ingredients so it's a nice concept. My only complaint is that there were several signs outside and inside saying to wait for the host to be seated and we waited a LONG time and then she said oh you can just sit at the bar. So, maybe put that on one of the signs? Usually the bar is seat yourself but when there are multiple signs as you walk up saying to speak to the host before sitting - idk I'm gonna speak to the host. I'm a rule follower. Not enough to turn me off, we will likely be back!
