Service was too-notch( 🙏 Natalie💕).
Drinks were excellent. My martini was a little too dirty . After I mentioned, Natalie smiled & said “ no problem”. Came back minutes later with a perfect one.
I had one of the best Burgers I’ve ever eaten Cooked exactly as I requested.
My partner had the fish & chips. The haddock was so good & the batter unique & scrumptious.

We had a fasinating & fun conversation.
I wished he could have joined us😂 but his restaurant was packed!
We will definitely have them
On our GO TO list 🤩”

“The Wells Center was a solid (if fairly standard) conference venue. The room we were in had a really nice A/V setup which was important because we had a complex mix of in person and virtual attendees and presenters. The catered food was also a cut above standard conference catering. What truly put the experience of the venue over the top, though, was the excellent staff.”

“always good good prices too”

“I had the Great Meatball of Fire last night at the Griffin Road branch. It was FABULOUS! It’s the April special and time is running out. Go get ya some!”

“Late afternoon lunch on a rainy day. The place was empty but they welcomed us with a smile. The Ruben and Buffalo chix wrap were fantastic. Will be sure to come back when we're in town!”

“I love it here. I stopped by to pick up a pizza and the lovely owner graciously offered me a sample of a new dessert he is working on. He is calling it “Milkshake Cake,” and it was the perfect sweet treat. He is always working on something new when I’m here and if you are lucky enough to come when it isn’t busy; it is an absolute joy to witness his passion and excitement for what he does. It’s an added bonus to hear the kids singing and playing. 100 stars for being family owned & consistently delicious.”

“It was late and we were hungry but couldn't find a place so we checked in at the OHOP. Ended up getting two of the best pizzas I have had in a long time. We each had a beer too! We had never been here before but had a good experience and great pizza. We will be back!”

“I’m possibly the happiest customer to even pass the doors. Delicious beer, great thick cut fries and a vegan impossible burger made perfectly with a local variety of burger toppings yum!!!”

“Best subway experience! Got asked if I was a umaine student and received the student discount and it was efficient and quick. This was customer service that I desire.”

“We’ve stopped at Aroma Joe’s multiple times while visiting our daughter at the University of Maine, and they’ve been consistently great every visit. The staff is always friendly, the shop is clean, and the coffee is excellent.

The location is very convenient to UMaine, and having a drive-thru makes it even better when you’re on the go. Friendly service, great drinks, and a positive experience every time. Couldn’t ask for much more.”
