10 Best Beer Bars near Portland

“pop up with Meet on the Street last night. Prix Fixe four course menu 😋. Food was outstanding, service…outstanding. Drinks?? Always outstanding! The gondola in the bar is always a fun little spot to sit. Such a great space on Wharf St, especially when the snow is falling. Food is warm and lovely, and the staff is always happy to see you. 100/10.“

“After dinner elsewhere, my partner and I decided to check out Room for Improvement for some after dinner cocktails. The bar was full, but we were directed to seats on the little patio and treated to amazing drinks and excellent service. I am STILL thinking about the negroni I ordered. Fabulous spot for drinks, and I hope the next time I'm in Portland I can grab a seat at the bar in order to enjoy the full RFI experience.“

“Christopher is such an awesome host. He is extremely well connected in the restaurant industry- we came for our first anniversary and he HANR WROTE a recommendations list for us for our trip. The beer selection is amazing, and the taproom is very cozy.“

“Fantastic menu! I felt like I just walked into a glamorous pub in England when I saw the menu choices. The cocktail list is loaded with great drinks AND there are two happy hours daily! I had a delicious toasted cheese sandwich with bacon and tomato —so huge I could barely finish half. It came with a heap of perfectly fried hand cut potatoes. My sister got a lovely bowl of French onion soup to start and the steak frites as a main course. There was a big sliced steak done to perfection! We will return regularly! *****“

“Best brewery I have been to in Maine don’t pass up going there. Staff is amazing“

“What can you say?? It's New England's first craft brewery, opened a few months before that MA patriot one. :D They keep it simple with a quaint tasting room, plenty of seating outside in great weather, very comfortable and still fantastic brews!! Definitely recommend!“

“We wandered in today and sat at the bar. We were so impressed with both the service and the food. The bartender was cordial, friendly, and extremely attentive. We had a flatbread that was absolutely delicious and chicken, bacon ranch salad with house made ranch that was exceptional. Closer than any. We don’t have a flatbread company near our home sure wish we did.“
