7 Best Burger Restaurants near Orono

“We are from Chicago and swear everybody says they have an authentic chicago dog. ( never true until today )

This place is a real gem
The dog is as good and better than most in my sweet home town Chicago

Luke the owner is amazing“

“On a normal basis I have nothing to complain about, this store is usually alright. But there is one employee that works at this store, as soon as I hear her voice in the drive thru I already expect it to be a struggle every time. She rushes you through your order, she asks if we want certain things and completely throws us off what we were planning to order, she gets visibly frustrated when we ask her to scan the app QR code, and snatches your phone without asking or anything. She's not personable, she never smiles or says thank you. She seems like a grumpy old lady that can't keep up with the pace of the job. She seems miserable doing what she is doing. If you are that unhappy go elsewhere.... if you are a regular patron at this restaurant I know you know who I'm talking about. I hope management has a talk with her or something because it's pushing me to spend my money elsewhere.“

“My wife and I popped in here on our way to Acadia National Park and it was a pleasant surprise! The restaurant is right on the river so you have a gorgeous view as well as access to the riverfront park. The first time we came, it was pretty cold, wet, and dreary outside and it was still such a nice view.

Service was efficient! As soon as we walked in, we were seated outside and were able to order a couple beers while we decided what to get for food. Both of the beers we got were sours or sour-adjacent and both were good!

For food, we started off with just a side of fries with the dirty seasoning (not the dirty fries on the menu, I believe these are new since we were there). The fries were just okay. They were very dark and not crispy so that leads me to believe that maybe they use peanut oil for frying? Not sure but they weren't the best. They needed a lot of salt as well. The sauces we ordered for dipping were the Bacon Blue Cheese, Liquid Gold BBQ and Black Garlic Ranch. All but the Gold were really tasty! The gold just tasted like honey mustard which is not what we wanted. We expected tang like a gold should be.

We also ordered burgers; the Sweet Hot Mess and the Butter Burger. Both were delicious but the Butter Burger was better. It was soooo buttery. Spot on! For sides, we got the Hoisin Sprouts and the Pork Cracklins with salt and vinegar seasoning. The sprouts were too sweet and not spicy enough for my liking. The cracklins....now THOSE are something to write home about. And in fact, I did say in the beginning that we came here more than once. And that was because of these cracklins. We stopped back in on the way back to the airport and best believe we took these babies back home to FL with us. Had the best post-travel snack on the couch!!

If we find ourselves in Brewer/Bangor again, we'll make a point to stop into Mason's!“

“Don't recommend five guys because of the food. The burgers look more like smashburgers now meaning there's never a complete patty in your burger and I don't like that so you have a very low rating for me maybe a two out of 10“

“Brewsters has great food, sports on the TVs, amazing drinks, for less cost than most other restaurants around Brewer & Bangor area. What makes it one of the greatest places around is the Staff and Owner they do so much for the community, help families in need and take amazing care of their customers especially those regulars who come in all the time. I would give my money to them before I’d ever give it to a huge franchise restaurant.“

“Other than it being slightly loud )it was also suoer busy) which the loudness wasn't a big deal for us, personally.. but some people may want to know how loud it before they go and dine there so I thought it was worth mentioning.

The food was delicious and the portions were amazingly huge! No complaints on the food front for us! Definitely will be going back to enjoy lunch next time since we had a late supper this last time.“

“Everything was great. Very sweet woman named Lisa took our crazy order and got it all perfect! Great place“
