    3 eggs overeasy with bacon, other photo 3 eggs with ham
    Claudine R.

    Had a good breakfast here although at first, our order didn't go through and after 30 minutes of waiting, the other server asked us if we placed an order and we said yes, we just thought the kitchen was behind since the place had decent amount of diners. Our original server was very apologetic and she didn't charge us for 2 coffees. Greatly appreciated. The food was your typical diner food, 3 eggs over easy and bacon and BF had ham.. and had an extra side of sausage too. It was good and the home fries was tasty and well seasoned. We were stuffed and price is cheap! That's very hard to find in this area of Maine. We're definitely coming back!

    Impromptu trip to Popham Beach since the sun was shining & the temps were over 40!! On the way home we popped in The Galley for a cup of coffee and immediately started checking out the special board!! Haddock Chowder and Strawberry Rhubarb crisp with a generous scoop of vanilla! My man had to have the 2 hot dogs with home cut fries !! Our beverages were "free refills" soda and coffee which I cannot recall last time I enjoyed such a great performance by the wait staff taking care of our drinks. The locals patrons were very friendly! A real price performer!

    We stopped in on our way back home to CT. Our server was so super nice. Great little family restaurant. Would definitely stop by again when in Maine.

    Guess what ... Fat Boy in Brunswick, Maine, Is Opening on June 26, 2026 With Some New Additions…read more Fat Boy drive-in in Brunswick kicks off its 71st season with fresh menu items, a family play area, and the return of their cherished frappes. We thought it wouldn't be open this year, we got the good news. The new owner also stated there i "a new "Yard" play area for families, including a sand pit, yard games, picnic tables, and an old sailboat hull for climbing and planting. It's always a struggle to find free things for kiddos to do all year round and thought it was a great use of the space." They are back, check them out!!

Tasted horrible today. Oddly the outside rolls were ok. Maybe the butter was held warm too long? Something was off enough that my "don't eat that" alarm went off. Since Mrs P brought this back to the house I was able to change the roll and continue. Back in the day the burgers were not 1/4 pound as they seemed today. Witness preferred them when they were White Castle or slider sized. The onion rings seem to have returned to their once glory. Can not say if they are homemade or not. If not they are best the Cisco truck has to offer. A few years ago they were the worst food ever served. Particularly when compared to back in the day.

    Maine Street bistro is a good addition to the wide range of restaurants on Maine Street in New…read moreBrunswick. We already have some excellent local Asian restaurants but we don't have too many places, serving upscale bistro and pub food in an attractive setting. As this was our first time here, our server, Joshua, Was especially helpful and attentive in beverage and menu selections. And he did a really nice job of trying that all of the dishes came out at the right time in the right order, which isn't done often enough. Joshua highly recommended the falafel and I join him in that recommendation. The switch to lentils is the base made an exceptionally light but tasty version of a wonderful favorite. The mug, fish and cabbage dish was delicious, though maybe a bit larger certain of lentils, maybe with a bit more spice, would've made this dish even better . The risotto with crab was delicious, but the crab was lost in the dish, so it probably would be better as a crabcake or as a amount of crab meat on top of the risotto. And normally addition to risotto are made at the very end anyway, so this makes sense to get the most out of the crab. We had several glasses of wine, with generous pours; the Sancerre was exceptionally good and paired well with everyone's dishes. There are some excellent local beers on top as well for those who want beer rather than wine. One of our group had some of the oysters and said that they were extremely fresh and delicious - they were local from Brunswick (Mere Point). The desserts and after dinner drinks looked good, but we were full enough that we'll wait until another visit to do that.

    Carolyn was our server. She was terrific. Highly attentive. Our meals were delicious. The crudo was…read morethin tuna with pickled onions, basil oil, shaved foie gras. The risotto was specially made without dairy. The smash burger a decadent treat. We will return.

    It's been almost 10 years since I reviewed Big Top Deli and I thought I would refresh so that…read morereaders know I still enjoy this Deli. There's a reason we keep coming back - the food and service. The ambiance is ok. Basic tables and chairs and some "circus" type of decorations on the wall. They have a pretty consistent menu that really hasn't changed, at least not that I have noticed. They have "signature" sandwiches or you can build your own. They have hot and cold deli sandwiches available. They also have wedge fries that are oven baked. Family favorites; Sonny's Supreme and the classic italian. I also also love their breakfast sandwich options. They have a cooler of beverages. My favorite is Fresca. A soda I never have at home and I soda I always buy when I can at a deli. Pairs perfectly. Don't sleep on the sweets for sale by the register. The cookies and whoopie pies are usally tasty. The staff seems consistent - hardworking, customer service oriented and nice to interact with. They keep the simple dining area as clean as they are able - during the lunch hours during the week - this place is always packed!!! Wow...it's great to see and hope this means this buiness will stay around for years to come. Parking - many parking options within .5 mile from the location. We still visit here and we still recommend it to family and friends.
