Mixed review here. I liked the ambiance and the service was perfectly fine. I immediately got the vibe that this place walks a line between "fine-ish" dining and down to earth, Maine, habits... which in on board with that line being walked! The wings were DELICIOUS. I'd return for those, 100%. The fried chicken sandwich was tasty. And the espresso martini and corn chowder were underwhelming. read more

Top notch service and taste!! Fantastic atmosphere for the coast of Maine. Would highly recommend to in the area!

This review is for the Cellar restaurant at York Harbor Inn. This pub is located on the lower level of the historic York Harbor Inn. Great atmosphere. The bar is reminiscent of an old wooden schooner. Some of the structure is from actual ship. The food is excellent and the staff are fantastic. We make sure we get up there every year for a relaxing for time for beverages and great food. read more

Ship's Cellar Pub - My go to.... Parmesan Crusted Chicken Pesto - Gastropubs Near Me - York, Maine

Food is always great. Drinks very good but beware to dirty martini drinkers because I was charged .75 cents for each mid-sized blue-cheese stuffed olive in my dirty martini. Cost of the martini was $18.75. This is the most I've ever paid for a martini read more

One of the better Margherita flatbreads I've had. Very tasty. However the seafood chowder wasn't that good--very bland and was served lukewarm. For $12 I could've done without it. I do appreciate the variety in menu, you could order a fancy meal (like what they serve upstairs in their main restaurant), or you could just order a burger. Fun vibe, the decor makes you feel like you're on a ship. A little dark inside so keep your flashlight handy... If it weren't for yelp I might've missed this place just driving by. They keep the door open but there's no huge "Cellar Pub" sign besides the writing above the door. It's very easy to miss. Not sure if this is how they want it since it is part of the York Harbor Inn but it would probably be smart to add a bigger sign to attract more customers that are passing by. Would go back for the flatbread! read more

Great food and service, reasonably priced, will definitely visit again soon. The regular patrons are also great.

I've been coming here for many years and the food never disappoints. I'm very picky about my steak n cheese sandwiches and theirs is excellent. I've never had a bad meal and the drinks are excellent as well. My only complaint?? The bar stools. I'm short and even I have to sit hunched over. The chairs are way too tall. Hit it right and you might have some nice music to listen to live. Everyone here is very friendly and efficient. We never need to ask for anything. Highly recommend! read more

Casual place with good food and good service by Corey. Great Cheese Burger but the fries were just ok. We started off with delicious onion rings and I had a Caesar Salad which was just ok. My wife had the parmesan crusted chicken which she truly enjoyed. It was crowded so recommend making reservations. We went there on Saturday night so they had a one man band playing and he was good. I would recommend parking on the street because the parking lot behind the inn has no lights on a dirt parking lot. We would definitely go back. read more

Everything went more than well! Jessica was fabulous, attentive and kind! Food was also awesome! And of course the ambience of the historic York Inn also added to the dining experience ! But we value how a waiter/waitress adds the cherry on the top! Once again, thank you Jessica! read more

Kicking myself. Staying at the fabulous York Harbor Inn and my last night I decide to venture downstairs. What a beautiful, cozy, fun space. The bartender, Rocco- friendly and so much energy. I ordered a margarita flatbread. Sooooo much food and delicious. Very fun bar area. You won't be disappointed! read more

I ate one bite of my hamburger. I paid $28 for a microwaved burger. All I can say it was nasty.

This quaint pub is a fabulous find. We felt as if we were on a ship. The woodwork is gorgeous. The wait staff was attentive and service was speedy. The crab cakes were delicious and the seafood chowder was as well. The option to pay via Q code was icing on the cake. Great all around experience. read more

I have yet to have a bad meal here for years and same for service. This is probably the best french onion soup and chicken tip sub of all time! It is a dark atmosphere with the boat feel - the other customers seem to be either stuck up or enjoying vacation. Recently had the pleasure of Erin as our server, she was above and beyond with kindness and making sure we had a great time, we ordered an app and 1 entrees, but that didnt matter to her, she was just as attentive and polite as a $200 tab. My biggest issue is the prices, its great food but the pub food is at fine dining prices. $20 for crispy /thin (delicious) flatbread- is not reasonable. $30 for an seafood entree yes, fair but some pub style items (for the ship cellar pub) should be lowered. read more

Great location tucked away in the York Harbor Inn. Good lobster! Great service! I would recommend a visit.

Love this place! Same menu upstairs or down. We have been coming here for years. Love the scallops, lobster, chowders and especially the gingerbread pudding. Great bar and service. Gianna was great tonight. Decent wine list but could use more a broader by the glass menu. read more

Food, atmosphere and service are excellent. Highly recommend! Pasta is as perfect. Drinks were good. My son loved the pork loin

We have been going to the Ship's Cellar Pub for years but left very disappointed tonight. The service was very good but the entrance to the pub was dusty and dirty and the restaurant itself needed a good dusting. The food was disappointing. I had the salad "special ". It was a very marginal salad for $16.00 and my husband had the baked scallops. The scallops were fine but the green beans were almost uncooked and a mound of plain white rice rounded out a $36.95 entree. With 1drink and 1 ice tea and tip the bill was $72.13. Quite a hefty bill for a pub dinner. Taking this pub off the " let's eat out tonight" list. read more

If you want the real Maine experience you have to eat at a place like this. Classic old building, down home food and service and a great walk by the shire before or after dinner. This is less of a tourist place than many of the other nearby restaurants. read more

Great hangout for cocktails and a meal. Very busy in season, but a wonderful place to gather in the off season!

friendly staff. Our waitress was wonderful! I'm between a 2-3 for stars. We used to really enjoy coming here and were excited to come back after a brief hiatus ( pandemic) my husband was excited to see new fish dishes added to the menu which he enjoyed. I was shocked to see that all of the vegetarian items had been removed from the menu there used to be pizza a tofu dish and a veggie burger. Seems also like most of the pub menu items e.g. snacks had also been removed. When I asked if they had any vegetarian options the waitress said just one salad seems like a miss to me. There were four of us in our party two being vegetarian's.:( It's a cool interior and definitely worth grabbing a drink and if you are not a vegetarian definitely worth grabbing something to eat. Unfortunately for us we won't be going as often due to the limited menu. read more

We dined here twice this week. The service is friendly and welcoming. Both meals were very good. Over two days we had the Lobster roll, classically prepared with fresh fresh lobster. Broiled scallops, a generous portion simply prepared to bring out the fresh flavors of the scallops. Three cheese flatbread, another generous portion well done. Haddock Sammy, my favorite. The surprise hit is their simple salad. So fresh, so well balanced with just the right amount of dill dressing. So simple and so good. read more

This restaurant is amazing! It's a hidden gem tucked inside York Harbor Inn! Went to visit twice a while back and loved it! The food was so delicious and flavorful and our waitress, Paige, was super friendly! I really appreciate them going above and beyond to accommodate the food I wanted to make it gluten-free so I could still eat it, even with my celiac disease. The performer, Steve, was excellent! I was so happy that he played a Beatles song that I requested! Also shoutout to Reilly, the hostess, for great customer service and Paul, one of the York Harbor Inn managers, for being super sweet, friendly, and cheerful! Everyone makes me feel welcome here! Can't wait to return again soon! read more

Really cool atmosphere with amazing service. The food and drinks were delicious as well.

Very friendly, local neighborhood gem of a pub. Good food, great service, beautiful location.

Wow! Blown away! The food was great! We loved being able to sit outside. Even with the cars driving by right in front of you, the view and seating was great. Service is great as well. The haddock sandwich is really good. They have the best artichoke dip I have ever had. The crab cakes are phenomenal. I could go on, but typing all of this is making me hungry. I can't wait to go back. read more

Really nice place to go before the tourists show up its a little dark because you really do feel like you are in a ships lower deck. The food is really great. Flatbread pizza is outstanding. Service is good. Really great bartender (Dave). Comfortable easy environment. Good parking across from park/ocean Salads are phenomenal. Really fresh ingredients and unique combinations. Fish chowder is good definitely worth the visit. Good dinner place for quiet relaxing. Prices are a little high but the quality is worth it. read more

Great place with delicious food. The ambiance was so cool, really looked and felt like a ship. The staff so friendly and accommodating!

This place is special. Its cozy, open year round, serves free food for happy hour, its warm in the winter, and the AC BLOWS COLD in the summer. Best, the best seafood chowder outside of my house (get it here, mine takes all day, and they always have it on the menu here.) The mussels and crabcakes are lovely as well. The double lobster roll is my annual treat for that sandwich. I have split it and we have not been able to finish either half. The staff here is amazing and some of them have been here for many years. read more

Disappointed. The main restaurant was not open. Had to dine in a sweltering hot basement. It was so loud that we couldn't even hear each other. So, York Harbor Inn has a beautiful restaurant and yet chooses to cram guests in the basement. Will not be back until the main dining room is open every day. read more

Best watermelon margarita! Love this place- food is great, we had Maine's clams and lobster and closed it off with Maine's blueberry pie with vanilla ice cream! Everything was delicious and service was excellent! Coming back to try the stuffed haddock soon read more

Such a delicious dinner two nights in a row-one downstairs in the pub and the other upstairs in the dining room (the menus are the same, but they make a delicious bread with roasted garlic side in the upstairs dining room!) Had both the lobster and the seafood chowder- both were very, very good. Also very much enjoyed the spinach and strawberry salad- the cheese especially was incredible and loved the nuts; I added scallops the second night and they were incredible. Wish I could eat that like every day. The orange blossom chicken app was spicy but honestly great. And my husband really enjoyed his lobster roll. The only thing that was just okay was the crab Parmesan dip that was on special, but really enjoyed our meals! Good service and great atmosphere in both locations. Makes me very sad I don't live closer so I could come more often! read more

My husband & I just celebrated our 30th anniversary here. The view outside is amazing & the food is fantastic. The staff is friendly & made our experience special. We will definitely be back read more

Ate dinner here last night. It's dark, cozy and the decor is classic, wooden yacht. The Pats were on at the bar but it's not really a sports bar. There are different areas and rooms besides the bar area. They serve the full menu from the upstairs restaurant. The salads are great. Their homemade veggie patty is yummy. Service was friendly. Great spot! read more

Great little place that looks like the hull of the ship On the inside. Good food, slightly pricy but good for casual meal in York Harbor. I had the turkey club which was enormous but delicious! read more

My first time here and my first time having flecks of orange in my White Russian. I tried to take the flecks out with the wooden stirrer but there were too many, I had no idea what they were! I informed the waitress who brought me a new drink with no explanation until I asked her what the bartender had to say. She said it was from the margarita mix! This was a bit off putting and the drink was weak and heavy on ice. Not a delightful cocktail. My grilled haddock was drenched in butter and the cole slaw and potato salad were swimming in mayonnaise.my meal was a disaster. However, other members of my large party had better luck. The lobster rolls for example were awesome. Overall, mixed reviews for sure. read more

Worth a visit for anyone to experience the awesome 'sphere that is Ship Cellar's pub below the main restaurant. Great place to grab a drink, quick bite on the way up Route 1.. although it is worth noting there is nothing special about the seafood. Haddock was over soaked in butter. Option to add scallops to the salad proved disappointing with three small scallops thrown on top. Eaten here four times over the past year hoping each visit is better than the last. Conclusion: I keep going back for the New England charm, not the cuisine. read more
