A very wide ranging menu -- apps, burgers and sandwiches, pizza, pasta and entrees -- and prices are good for the quality. The blackened salmon was excellent -- not overloaded with salt -- and the garlic mashed and broccoli were just right.

Nice people who work in the sports pub Beer ? good and the food is great ?
This is my second time visiting this restaurant, and while there were some bright spots, it ultimately fell short of expectations.
First, the bartender deserves a lot of credit. Despite being clearly understaffed and juggling multiple tasks, she was attentive, friendly, and handled everything with professionalism. She could definitely use an extra hand, though, as it was evident she was doing more than one person reasonably should.
Unfortunately, the food was a major letdown. The dishes were not only slow to arrive but also lacked quality. When they did come out, they were either cold or overcooked, and the flavors just weren't up to par. It seems the kitchen could use some serious improvement both in terms of speed and taste. Also, you can't add customizations to the pizza, all I wanted was to add jalapeños.
In summary, while the service from the bartender was admirable, the slow, subpar food left me disappointed overall. With some adjustments to staffing and the kitchen, this place could improve significantly.

I ordered food to go!! Called on the phone and the young lady was nice and took my order. The food came up to $37 for fried buffalo cauliflower with cheese and bacon (it was cooked cauliflower with cheese, buffalo sauce and bacon) not what I’m use to!! It was HORRIBLE to me, Ruben was greasy and the fries had too much salt. I got desert and it was store bought cheesecake with blueberries(small slice) $9.
Overall the food was mediocre at best!! First and last time going to this place to eat.

I was so happy to have found The Downunder on our last trip to Houlton! It was delicious! There are tons of beers on tap and delicious food! I highly recommend!
Fun pub with good food.
