8 Best Burger Restaurants in Bangor

“Food was great, service was on point and organized!“

“Other than it being slightly loud )it was also suoer busy) which the loudness wasn't a big deal for us, personally.. but some people may want to know how loud it before they go and dine there so I thought it was worth mentioning.

The food was delicious and the portions were amazingly huge! No complaints on the food front for us! Definitely will be going back to enjoy lunch next time since we had a late supper this last time.“

“I went to get my dad some as I hadnt worked since they opened 🙄 turns out he already badgered mom into taking him. I was still pleased as he 80 ish more home bound & I was able to get his Hot Fudge on the side. So he wasn't fighting melting while he tried to eat.“

“The woodwork is very nice. It has the feel of a local. It was clean. It was missing a dart board. The art was black and white...lacked colour. Our server was very accommodating and the bar tender was extremely friendly. The menu was kind of Irish. It does have the adopted bar dish of Bangers and Mash which the Claddagh uses the term " bratwurst" to describe the sausage. Lots of Guinness based dishes too...A bratwurst is a German sausage typically made with pork, often seasoned with spices like nutmeg, marjoram, and caraway, while an Irish sausage, also called a "banger," is a milder sausage with a higher proportion of meat and less pronounced spices, often including ingredients like breadcrumbs or rusk to create a softer texture. Fish and Chips and other bar staples were there....but it does not feel Irish.

I guess it meets the definition. An authentic Irish pub will be a very laid back and chill. This meets the bill. A good place for a drink if you get over it's a hotel bar with limited hours and serves tater tots/pizza.

So the order:
A salad was brought out. It was a garden salad. It only loses points based on the courtons having this dry crumbly look....it was a salad. Nothing lost nor nothing gained.

The soup of the day...was chowder.The name "chowder" comes from the French word chaudiere, which refers to a large, three-legged iron cooking pot. I mean chowder is traditional Irish. Again uninspired...No beef barley, curry soup (mulligantawny), potato leek....something!!!

Now, The special entree was great! I had the chicken pot pie. The pastry top was flaky and good. My party got there at 5:18. Despite us and only 1 other party being in the dining room...We were told that we ordered the last two! This was really great and I am sorry other patrons missed out. It was piping hot with potato, Mashed Potatoes smeared to adhere the pastry, carrots, peas, chicken (very little). Plating was messy. I give it a A- but because of the pastry. The filling was a B. Again, the staff made the atmosphere by being very kind.“

“Really great drink and food options. The staff is really friendly and everything was on point. Vegan options for food and drinks. Definitely stop by and check them out.“

“Oh how I miss this place. I was always going there in the late 90's and I swear I have not found a burger nearly as good as they made, haven't been there since I got pinched in 98 for robbing the Bangor Savings Bank. I really enjoyed that place, the atmosphere was so "cool." But the burgers, trust me world, the most absolute best I have ever had, give them a try, you won't be disappointed, I promise you that!“

“We were there for the American legion conference during the storm and they had very little help in the bar and restaurant so the hotel pulled a young man from the front desk to help out and he ROCKS!!! He ran his butt off for everyone and made sure we were all taken care of. Very impressed! Thank you!“

“Great food and great service!“
