I stopped by hungry on my way through Machias, Maine and decided to try Mason's…read more There is plenty of parking and the restaurant entrance has a ramp. I started off with the only draft lager, the Midnight Train. It was dark and had a coffee taste which is not my thing. I had asked the waitress if she had ever tried it and she had not, but did offer a taste first which I declined. There is a huge wrap around bar or wooden tables to dine in. Casual ambience. Restrooms were very clean. I had the fish and chips and that came out quickly. The house made tarter was very good, along with the coleslaw. I ordered a side of cowboy beans and they were flavorful and hearty. Really delicious. However, it is a huge portion for a side (maybe the size should be specified or marked as a sharable) and there was no price listed on the menu. The price was $10, pretty steep for a side in my opinion (which I learned only after getting the check). I decided to take the beans home with a hot dog to go, and was told the dog comes with a side as well; apparently you cannot just get a dog alone! So that was $8 for a dog and a sad portion of kraut that was just ok. The bill came to $45.90 and I gave the waitress $60 and she asked, "do you want your change?" Seems she expected a huge tip based on minimal service. I politely said "yes, please." My change was $14.10. She brought back $14 but not the 10 cents. Seems like a dumb thing to complain about, but this is not right. Not giving people the correct change is never ok and it works in the restaurants favor and screws the customer and based on that fact alone, I would not recommend and don't plan to return.

I was feeling the vodka one third of the way through the drink!

Our cruise stopped at Eastport, Maine and we came searching for a lobster meal. Happy Crab's menu…read morekeeps popping up on my search but lobster was not on the menu. Upon arrival, we inquired inside and voila! They've made a special lobster combo. For $50/whole lobster, it comes with a roll and a corn. Add $25 for another whole lobster. Dessert included too. It took us 3 hours from lining up to finish! Long three hours but it's very well worth the wait. Lobsters were very fresh, butter isn't necessary. Juices poured out as soon as we cracked the lobster open. Shania and the manager were very friendly making our long wait worthwhile. The restaurant isn't big and doesn't have much seating, not enough for passengers of a cruise ship. On normal days, they don't serve lobsters and serving this small town should be enough.

My time was short this year, but I didn't want to have a summer without a little Atlantic Brewing love. So we popped into the Midtown location for the first time. It was a little rainy, so we sat inside. But it looked like they also have some pretty cool outdoor space for options during better weather. Service was great, and the food offered a little more variety than the BBQ at the main location. Small plates. Different options. A nice change of pace. All on top of their usual excellent beer! So we were so pleased to snack on duck wings and a couple charcuterie boards, which really hit the spot after a day in Acadia and poking around the shops in Bar Harbor.

But then upon learning that it was replaced with wine (and not Sutter Home/Franzia/Night Train), my disappointment evaporated. Not what you'd expect to see in Machias (especially not for very long), where Natty Light and The Beast reign as the preferred beverages....but the owners aren't doing it to turn a profit, they're doing it for the love of it. We got to chat with them for a little bit and that was nice to learn. They have tons of wonderful wines from around the world here (even some from Virginia....wtf?) and my husband and I were able to satisfy our wine snobbery even in the outer reaches of downeast Maine during our stay thanks to these guys. They have a lovely Spanish grenache as well as a crisp Pouilly-Fuisse that we pretty much lived off of. In addition, they have lots of excellent specialty cheeses to offer, and will give you samples to try while you shop. Prices are basically what we're used to for California (the previous reviewer mentioned that they're probably a little steep for Machias and I'd have to agree) but definitely worth it when the next best shit in town is the Bogle available at Hannaford.

I have been stopping in to The Airline Brewing Company weekly, for about 3 years, either alone or…read morewith my son (who introduced me to the place). My visits are almost always on Saturday or Sunday afternoons, seated at the bar, and usually involve a couple of Airline's excellent beers, conversations with the friendly staff, and a sandwich or a bowl of tasty Airline chili. The brewery and restaurant building was originally a sawmill and both the dining room and bar are chock-full of antique tools, artifacts and photos reflecting its storied past. There is a cozy sitting/dining area between the entrance and the bar, with a couple of tables, comfy chairs and a sofa near the fireplace. The other 2/3 of the room consists of a larger dining area with more tables, a dart board and TV. And did I say every square foot of wall space is filled with reminders of Maine woods history? Well worth a visit, and if you are into ATVs or snowmobiles, Airline Brewing is easily accessible from a state ATV trail.
