10 Best Bar & Grill near Orono

“We did not get to eat but had to come and write just how kindly we were treated. Dewey, the owner, was very apologetic and really didn't have to be. We were touring schools and were tired and exhausted and had no idea there was a hockey game. He took us outside to tell us about the area and offered several other spots to eat. I left saying to my daughter, I think I'd pretty much trust him with our lives. If she ends up in Maine you will have another family of regulars!!“

“Awesome food and a great view of the Penobscot Valley Country Club golf course. Went to a fun event for the Kentucky Derby this year and they had drink specials and a special menu including an incredible "burgoo" soup that I've never had before.“

“Timber Kitchen & Bar is easily one of the best spots in Bangor. The atmosphere is warm and stylish, perfect for a night out or a casual meal. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and quick without making you feel rushed. The food is so good, everything tastes fresh and thoughtfully made. Their cocktails are delicious, and the menu has something for everyone. I’ve never had a bad dish here. Whether you’re grabbing dinner with friends, going on a date, or celebrating something special, Timber never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“The food is like wowwww good! I have had the street corn dip, the boneless tenders, and the birria grilled cheese, and they’re all so good! My friends got the burgers and said they were all awesome as well. Margaritas were also on point! Laid back with the best service! ❤️“

“We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience at the Tailwinds Grille located within the Aviator Hotel. Our lobster rolls were out of this world, the woppie pie dessert was great, and the service tonight was excellent. This place is super convenient for dining during an overnight stay, and the food is way better than what the reviews show.“

“Overall, a decent place. It was quite empty when I visited. I was the only non hotel patron there. I wasn't exactly sure if I should wait to be seated, as the server was in a different room when I got there, but once I sat down he came back in and his service was pretty good. Very chill and welcoming. The food itself is a little expensive for what they offer, but not terrible. The menu is super small. As in one side of one page for food small. I tried the mac n' cheese. Without the pulled pork, the actual mac was very creamy and tasty. The pulled pork was ok, but it was a sourer bbq than I'm used to. They had college football on that I was able to watch which was cool.“

“great place! Menu was good, nice drink selection and ambience. food was great as well. I got the tacos. much better than the local chain places that offer bbq.“

“Great atmosphere, great food and great service!“

“Great tasting gyros. We tried both chicken and lamb gyros and they were great. The salad with Greek dressing was so fresh and delectable. Don't forget the baklavas warm with sweet honey and nuts. Highly recommended.“
