Every element of the experience is worth your invested time. Don't miss this place.

Good but not great for the price, other than that no complaints.

Greeted with a smile and had some nice decor for the space, but that's about where it stops being a positive experience. We were sat by the big barn door, with my seat so close to the iron handle that I had to be very aware of how far I moved my head to the left( I literally had just a couple of inches between my head and the handle), our server was unprofessional and very inattentive, the menu was very difficult to read due to very small font used, and for the prices of items, most items ordered by our table did not reflect that in quality. The overall experience was not at all worth what we paid.

We drove an hour to come here, worst service I've had in a long time. Over priced, bland and my waitress was horrible! She didn't even check on our table, had to ask another waitress to get our check. Ran out of drinks, needed napkins and other things. But our waitress keep just walking by and not even looking at us, so we could wave her down. After we put our order in, she acted weird and didn't stop again at our table again after that. The cider tasted like bud lght with a splash of apple juice in it. How do you hire a waitress at a brewery, that doesn't know how to pour a dam drink? Horrible, we won't be back again.

Lively and open environment. Well crafted menu. Good beer. Kind and attentive staff. The pastrami sandwich roll was very hard but the rest of the sandwich was great. No foul on the food...just a lazy cook back there somewhere. A must stop if you're staying in the area.

We went there on a recommendation from our B&B host. When we got there we were told it would be an hour to an hour and 15 min wait. The place seemed nice so we decided to wait. An hour and 35 minutes later we got seated. Our waitress told us about specials and asked us for a drink order and said she be back. 30 minutes later she said she was sorry and had forgotten about us. All and all we were there for over 3 hours for a burger and scallops and some fries. The food we good but not worth the aggravation

Taking the long roadtrip up the state of Maine on route 1 and stopped for the night in Presque Isle. Thankfully this brewery was in quick distance and my wife and I decided to knock it off our brewery list for Maine as they were open and we were so close. We were sat right away. Order two beers; their Skidder Grease (nitro stout, think like Guinness) and their Aroostook Logger (easy drinking lager) and split an app of loaded poutine. Beers and food came out quick. Beers were decent, not our favorites but options are limited up here. The poutine was definitely the highlight, would recommend trying it out! Lastly it took awhile for us to pay as our server seemed to have forgotten us. Otherwise nice place and a spot I am sure locals very much enjoy!

I am 82 years old and this is the worst meal I have ever had at a restaurant! My friend had to send his back and mine had broccoli so salty it was uneatable, and I like salt. Meat was tough and potato's were lumpy. Small portions and no bread. Nearly an hour wait for the meal. All for more money than I would pay in costly Connecticut!

Their Tornado Shrimp are my favorite. Also a fan of their wings, fish and chips, and onion rings.

Absolute sticker shock after ordering the chicken wings. $16 for only six small wings plus extra for a small side of fries. The wings were tossed in a Parmesan garlic sauce which is usually my favorite, accept these were unexpectedly covered in chives. Not just a useless little garnish like most places, but COMPLETELY encrusted. As I have an onion sensitivity (any more than the barest minimum causes extremely painful and unpleasant bathroom situations), I missed out on the sauce after having to scrape this nasty surprise off.

The absolute WORST service I’ve ever experienced at a restaurant.I rarely leave restaurant reviews and if I do they’re exclusively positive, but this was an awful experience.i can’t say anything about the food or drinks because I never even got the chance to try them.We were told when we arrived that there would be a 45 minute wait, which we were fine with. During the wait we could hear several conversations about the different items they were running out of.After the 45 minute wait the hostess seated us (party of 3) at a 6 person table and told us we were getting a big table so they could “get us seated earlier”We waited for 15 minutes and no one came to bring us water, take drink orders, or even let us know that a server is coming. After 15 minutes of waiting we started to try to get the attention of any server that walking into the room, only for them all to act like they didn’t see us. Finally a third server came to the table right next to ours and I tried to get her attention. She looked at me and then walked away.After being literally ignored for 20 minutes with no explanation AND a limited menu, we left.On the way out the door the hostess smiled and thanked us for coming, further proving they have no awareness of what’s going on.I recommend NO ONE go here. You’ll only be wasting your time.

I would love to have a chance to recommend the food, if we had actually been served or even acknowledged. We came at a bustling time but over an hour and a half before the kitchen closed. It took around an hour to be seated. This was informed to us ahead of time, but the hostess that seated us contradicted that this seating was given to us "early." I believe this was used to explain us to being placed at a 6 seat table for a 3 person party in a far corner not visible to the staff. We were then not acknowledged for 25 minutes. Three servers made eye contact with our table clearly unserved, but no server was ever sent. After the third server, our party all collectively got up and rushed out hungry and annoyed, the thanks for coming in as we left truly stuck the icing on the cake that it was clear no one knew the situation. After the whole ordeal, the kitchen was already half an hour past close. Very upsetting experience.

Beer was great. Food was horrible. Steak was chewy and not cooked as requested. Server was told but did nothing about it.
