Nothing appealed to us on the menu, but the beverages and bean bag toss were good, The workers were friendly too.

We have been in Camden for almost a month and have struggled to find good/great restaurant food, but we hit the jackpot last night with The Jack! The atmosphere is awesome, service was great, craft beer on draft and a full bar.... and the food was outstanding!! My husband and I each had a different bowl and both were wonderful. We've had two delicious dinner meals in Camden and The Jack is one of them. Get away from the wharf and step to the other side of the street along the river and try The Jack - you won't regret it - we will be going back! (and they have bocce ball if that's something that you like!)

Didn't get to try food unfortunately kitchen was backed up and closed early. Went to play bocce. Beautiful courts and indoor. Kids were running around which was fine we engaged with them then moved over to the other side so we could play solo. Kids were running rampant and wild. We couldn't finish a game.

Interesting place with 3 bachi courts in the restaurant. Food was very tasty and reasonably priced for the area. Waitress was very good and kept checking on us. I would go back here again. With 2 meals and 4 drinks and tip a little less than $100 for 2 people.

Fun date night or place to take our kids. Super pretty atmosphere and quicker food service. Menu is a little pricey for the portion sizes, but I know cost of ingredients are high right now.
Great food, games, atmosphere and food! Awesome selection of craft beers too!

If you are looking to play bocce, then this is a nice indoor spot but unfortunately that's where it ends. The food and service were mediocre at best. We ordered two types of sliders, one being the fried chicken and they were almost inedible. The chicken was barely fried and then buffalo sauce was slathered all over them. The burger sliders were ok but nothing memorable. As far as the service, while the bartenders were friendly they couldn't keep up with the crowd. We waited and waited to be served and they most times did not even look at the guests at the bar to see if they needed anything. While I may try this place if I'm in the area again, I can't say it would be my first stop to hit.

If you actually want to play bocci, play at home. They let other patrons children run wild. Actively discommend the fish tacos.

Absolute terrible experience. Not only did it take forever to get an understanding if we seat ourselves or wait for a hostess, but the service could not have been more disappointing. We ended getting direct to go sit at one of the tables 10 minutes after standing there. While waiting another 10 minutes, we ended up having menus dropped off without even a, "hello." The bartender who ended up "waiting" on us couldn't have been anymore unprofessional and just had an overall unfriendly demeanor to her. For the price off the beverages and small dishes, we felt as if we were ripped off. The only reason of their continuance as a business is from their indoor activities, which tends to get way to loud if you aren't participating. As locals, we will not return and suggest others to be cautious if they are looking to get a dinner in camden as well.

Super nice
Amazingly friendly service as we lucked out and came in on a relatively slow night.
Kid-friendliness: Corn hole and Bocce lanes available right in dining room for ADHD comfort. Cool old mill cogs still attached to ceiling inspiring teachable moment

We loved it from start to finish. The atmosphere was fabulous, our server was super friendly and knowledgeable. I know I will have cravings for the Mongolian Beef bowl, long after we’ve returned to our home state. The server suggested it with fried rice instead of white and it was sooooo yummy. We hope to come back to Maine again and this will be on our lists of “to-do” again!

I ordered take out. Menu looked good. Food was slop. Overpriced and bad quality. Not fresh.

We were a party of 10 adults easily seated at a long table. We were offered drinks immediately. My wine was a descent pour. That was the best part. It was noisy with children running and playing on the Bocce courts. Food arrived in a timely manner, but mine was truly underwhelming. I ordered Mediterranean Mac and Cheese. It was elbow pasta, a bland white sauce with bread crumbs, and four large pieces of plain broccoli. We were given only a napkin and fork (dropped in center table). I couldn’t cut the broccoli! The menu price was $18. I was charged $21. The wait staff was friendly and accommodating.
