European Restaurants in Portland, ME

“My partner and I loved this place! We just need a break from the usual Maine seafood fare, and this English pub/cocktail bar was perfect. My partner had the shepherd’s pie with HP sauce on the server’s recommendation and it was a great topping. The tangy sauce balanced the gaminess of the lamb perfectly. I had the French onion soup, with a deep, beefy broth and focaccia pieces instead of a big crouton. It was so good, I believe I now prefer it that way.

Don’t come here if you’re looking for quick in-and-out dining. It’s a perfect laid-back spot to linger and relax, completely unrushed. We’re big gin fans and tried two cocktails we’d never had before. Both were delicious. Great food, great drinks, and a refreshing alternative to the seafood-heavy menus around town. We’ll definitely be back next time we are in town.“
