Burger Restaurants near Brewer

“My wife and I popped in here on our way to Acadia National Park and it was a pleasant surprise! The restaurant is right on the river so you have a gorgeous view as well as access to the riverfront park. The first time we came, it was pretty cold, wet, and dreary outside and it was still such a nice view.

Service was efficient! As soon as we walked in, we were seated outside and were able to order a couple beers while we decided what to get for food. Both of the beers we got were sours or sour-adjacent and both were good!

For food, we started off with just a side of fries with the dirty seasoning (not the dirty fries on the menu, I believe these are new since we were there). The fries were just okay. They were very dark and not crispy so that leads me to believe that maybe they use peanut oil for frying? Not sure but they weren't the best. They needed a lot of salt as well. The sauces we ordered for dipping were the Bacon Blue Cheese, Liquid Gold BBQ and Black Garlic Ranch. All but the Gold were really tasty! The gold just tasted like honey mustard which is not what we wanted. We expected tang like a gold should be.

We also ordered burgers; the Sweet Hot Mess and the Butter Burger. Both were delicious but the Butter Burger was better. It was soooo buttery. Spot on! For sides, we got the Hoisin Sprouts and the Pork Cracklins with salt and vinegar seasoning. The sprouts were too sweet and not spicy enough for my liking. The cracklins....now THOSE are something to write home about. And in fact, I did say in the beginning that we came here more than once. And that was because of these cracklins. We stopped back in on the way back to the airport and best believe we took these babies back home to FL with us. Had the best post-travel snack on the couch!!

If we find ourselves in Brewer/Bangor again, we'll make a point to stop into Mason's!“

“Brewsters has great food, sports on the TVs, amazing drinks, for less cost than most other restaurants around Brewer & Bangor area. What makes it one of the greatest places around is the Staff and Owner they do so much for the community, help families in need and take amazing care of their customers especially those regulars who come in all the time. I would give my money to them before I’d ever give it to a huge franchise restaurant.“

“I would like to complain about my recent experience from DQ brewer drive thru... tonight, on 6/28 I ordered a blizzard. I pulled up to the window and they handed me my blizzard, melting. Dropped globs of ice cream all over my brand new shirt and seatbelt and then when I complained I got a few napkins, after the ice cream was melting down every side of the cup. Within 5 minutes the entire cup was about melted and I was sticky and disgusting. Worst experience I've had so far. 😡“
