“In my years growing up in Portland and then moving to the outskirts of the city, I’ve finally found a Restaurant /Tavern with my first choice Owner’s special I give four stars, atmosphere friendly service excellent. The experience with my lady and one of our sons and I had the best experience, and the price just right they have found a new customer. I couldn’t have found a great place that we have enjoyed. See you soon.“

“Went here for the first time last night & really enjoyed the food, drinks & atmosphere. The service & staff are fantastic!“

“This is nothing against our server because she was great and very sweet and accomodating... management on the other hand... my husband and I went here to celebrate my 30th birthday... He heard really great things about this place from a number of his coworkers and people that live locally and let me tell you... we were both were very disappointed. The food was alright, nothing I'd really rave about... but the cocktail menu... VODKA, VODKA, AND MORE VODKA. Not much variety at all... which coming from a bartender/server of 10+ years, if you knew what you were doing then you would know that not everyone loves vodka. I ordered the cucumber cooler, which is typically made with gin... just because you use Effen Cucumber Vodka, does not make it a cucumber cooler... that was the most horrible tasting drink I ever had to force down. Clearly the "customer is always right," does not apply to this establishment. Any good manager would take it off the bill and accomodate the guest and offer something else. NOPE NOT THIS PLACE!!! I ended up forcing myself to drink it because I was not letting my husband pay for a nasty drink to be dumped down the sink anyway. So I order the Aperol Spritz and it was alright. I will say they need more variety on the cocktail list, and I will give you a new recipe for your Cucumber Cooler FREE of charge... GIN (anything but well).. muddled cucumber & mint, touch of simple syrup, splash of lime juice, give it a hell of a good shake, & top it off with soda water... I'm sure you will get way better reviews off that one menu change. Good luck this summer cause y'all are gonna need it!“

“Amazing pulled pork tacos, burger, vibe, and service!! Loved the guitarist!“

“The Magic Lantern Theater holds a special place in my family’s heart. We’ve been coming here since the 1980s, and it’s become a beloved tradition to visit at least once every summer.

There’s just something magical about the atmosphere. The historic charm of the theater transports you back to a simpler time—a feeling that’s increasingly rare these days. Whether it's catching a movie or just soaking in the nostalgic surroundings, every visit feels like stepping into a piece of our own family history.

The pub inside is also a great bonus, offering a solid selection of food and drinks for all ages. It’s the perfect place to relax before or after a movie, and it adds to the welcoming, small-town feel that makes the Magic Lantern so special.

If you ever find yourself near Bridgton, visiting The Magic Lantern Theater isn’t just recommended—it’s a must.“

“We recently held my husband’s 40th surprise birthday party at Queen’s Head Pub and it was absolutely perfect. The atmosphere and vibe were just right, and the entire staff made the night so special. A huge shoutout to Lindsey, the event coordinator—she was truly a dream to work with. She brought my vision to life effortlessly and made the planning process so smooth and stress-free. This restaurant is a hidden gem in Bridgton and honestly gives Portland a run for its money. From the custom signature drink tailored to my husband’s preferred drink preferences to the beautiful event signage and all the little thoughtful touches, everything left a lasting impression. Lindsey was incredibly responsive, helpful with all my questions, and made every guest feel welcome—she was so amazing that she’s now got an open invite to our family Thanksgiving! Thank you to everyone at Queen’s Head Pub for making this event so memorable. I can’t wait to host another one here!“

“Best spot locally to relax & grab a drink! Live music, friendly staff, & delicious food!“

“I am gonna start by saying I enjoy wonderful food and people and new experiences. I don't mind a $200 dinner with a $150 wine bill if it's worth it! Now if I can mirror that feeling for $47 dollars well I find that superb. Boomers may not have a 12 course tasting menu or a luxurious table setting but my God can they make some amazing food and have you laughing! The owner made me feel at home with her jokes and personality! Reminded me of my grandma. The lake view was perfect! I ordered bacon wrapped scallops with a maple syrup side and a handmade pepperoni pizza with 3 beers. Everything was done exceptionally well. Best scallops around and the pizza was everything I personally love about a pizza! $47 for one of the best dinners I've had in Maine. Thank you.“

“First time yesterday. From our experience at Chianti we were expecting good food and wasn’t disappointed. Not only was the food great but the prices were reasonable. I see complaints about slow service but our orders came out very quickly. As with Chianti the noise level is a bit much but hey it’s a tavern. Lot’s of nice items on the menu and we have already picked some to try on our next visit which will be soon.“

“Absolutely outstanding food & service if you have not stopped in its a must do. they have a lot of young staff so please understand that the owner of this diner is willing to show our local youngsters all the culinary excellence.“
