Everything we had here was so worth it and absolutely delicious! Brittany W. crushed it as our waitress—super friendly and on point. The spin dip, Greek haddock, haddock sandwich, duck rice bowl, lamb flatbread, oysters, Irish cupcake, and crème brûlée were all amazing, and the cocktails were just as tasty. Such a fun spot and an awesome find! 10/10 recommend! 🎉

We had an excellent lunch at the Eider Pub. The oysters were particularly delicious. The staff were friendly and efficient. We’ve been before and will return again. Damariscotta is one of our favorite towns in the Midcoast.
