11 Best Bars near Camden

“Could someone help me find the 6 star review function to make up for the 1 star oral flatulence provided by Morty Mc Douchbaggery… Don’t mean to stoop to such levels, but seriously - every aspect of Lucky Betty’s is a stroke of creative genius. Constructively speaking I wish LB was open more often since I travel a lot and get LB FOMO!“

“Extraordinary and unlike any other restaurant in Maine. We found the establishment on our Michelin Guide portal, pretty much the only place recommended by Michelin in Maine. We enjoyed the lobster tasting, beautiful dishes of Maine lobster combined with south East Asian flavors. Service was attentive and knowledgeable .“

“Excellent food in a beautiful location. The top notch attentive staff make you feel welcome. We eat at Salt Wharf almost weekly. By far, the best in the area.“

“Amazing lobster rolls and stew!!! Great service and healthy pours! I apologize as my husband knocked over the whole tub of silverware coming into the place but thanks for the laughs!!!“

“Highly recommend. Great food, good service. Nice atmosphere“

“We stopped in on a Tuesday night for dinner and drinks while vacationing in Maine. We sat at the bar and there was no wait. The bartender was personable and attentive. We ordered a couple beers and had dinner. Fish tacos were pretty good. The pasta was good too. We walked here from the place we were staying so I can’t say exactly what the parking situation is but I’m pretty sure it’s on the street - not sure about meters. The atmosphere was laid back and easy going - there weren’t too many others at the bar while we were here but we had a nice conversation with a bar neighbor. Overall great experience.“

“Very family friendly and hospitable. The owner talked to me as if I was family instantly. The beers are basic though so there is room for experimentation. But... In my opinion, family-friendly places matter more than beer selection. DEFINITELY the best brewery in town“

“Leslie is there!! The local legend Todd, is there. (He's been bar tending in Rockkand for over 20 years. I refuse to tell you how I know this?)

I didn't rate the food because I go there to drink. I have had a snack here and there, and it was delicious, but not a meal, so I'm not qualified to rate it, so I won't.

We can't forget about Casidy! She's so bubbly and sweet! She makes you feel at home with the gruff, high pitched voice. ALWAYS has a smile that just melts your heart ❤️.

My family was up visiting from Virginia, and I made them come here.

This is the classic American "dive bar" (I say that in the most complimentary, respectful way), which is a MUST visit.“

“Hands down the best fish-n-chips I've ever had in my life, and I've had a lot of fish-n-chips. My wife had the bbq burger which was also great! This casual and comfortable place is a hidden gem that deserves a stop. If you can't deal with the full restaurants in Rockland, try this out!“

“My review is based off of the tamales just ordered. I grew up in Panama and it was one the best treats to get fresh tamales. It didn’t happen very often- but when it did, I loved them so much. And obviously in Maine- it’s almost impossible to find them- especially authentic. I was quite impressed with Sammy’s take on tamales. Of course- they are not the exact replica of what I had- but they are very impressive. And it’s A LOT of work to make them. It’s not Taco Bell. These are real tamales and I truly hope they don’t go away. Thanks so much for adding these into the Midcoast menu taking the time. Truly delicious. 🇵🇦“

“Good Experience at Rock Harbor Pub & Brewery

Finding parking in Rockland is tough, especially with an RV! Luckily, after checking in at the campground, they suggested I park at Pier 2 near the Light House Museum and Police Station. I was looking for a simple bite to eat and some time to walk around, so I stopped into Rock Harbor Pub & Brewery on Main Street.

The atmosphere was great, though the service was a bit slow and disorganized. It wasn’t clear who was handling customers, but no big deal—just added a bit more time to the visit. I started with the Rock Harbor French Fries and was curious to try their Rock Harbor Beer Cheese. The fries were basic, and the beer cheese wasn't what I expected—it was more of a paste than melted cheese. For my beer, I went with the Spruce Head Stout. It had strong chocolate and coffee undertones, but the balance was a bit off—the chocolate overpowered the beer a bit. It reminded me of Young’s Double Chocolate Stout from Eagle Brewery.

For my main dish, I asked the bartender for a recommendation between the tacos or another item. She suggested the Chicken Tacos, one of the most basic items on the menu. I think there was a missed opportunity to upsell, but I understand how it is being in the industry myself. The food overall was decent, and I left a good tip for the bartender on both card and cash.

All in all, it was a good experience. I’ll definitely be back!
