Orono Brewing Company - Tasting Room & Kitchen

Awesome spot, great food drinks and atmosphere!

I stop in here while I was visiting my family back home. The atmosphere was wonderful and the food was even better. I had the pumpkin chocolate chip cookie imperial stout along with a chicken burger with a blueberry sauce. The food and drink were fantastic and I even went back for another IPA. I will make it a point to come back here when I am back in this neck of the woods.

Returning back for homecoming reminded me how jealous I am this location opened near the end of my time at UMaine. I do have fond memories of their OG location that could barely fit 20 people in downtown Orono. This spot would be one of my go to spots as a current student cause OBC makes great beers, easily some of the best in the greater Bangor area. Also their fried chicken rivals most other options in the state I have tried. So crunchy and the chicken was perfectly juicy and the blueberry sauce made for a great condiment. Also their tater tots are cooked to perfection and perfectly seasoned. Service was friendly and quick even with the crazy amount of people around for homecoming. This spot is huge especially when factoring in all the outdoor space for cornhole and other games. This is a must check-out brewery in Maine. It rivals some of the best in the state and they are a brewery that could succeed anywhere in the state. Always going to appreciate Orono Brewing for being the first craft brewery I would frequently visit. They also have a great UMaine pride!

Amazing good. Even better vibes and staff. Had pork belly burger with avocado and the margaritas were amazing. Kids loved the video game set up! Live music topped off an amazing experience. Great for visitors or locals.

Very cool brewery! First time here and thoroughly enjoyed it. Stuck inside because of rain but the patio/yard area looks great. We’ll be back, especially for the Pearl Oyster Stout!
