Great lobster roll and chowder! While everyone was fighting the crows and lines on the wharf, we walked right into the bar and sat down. Great service and prices!

My favorite place to eat and drink in Portland. The bacon wrapped scallops and the peaches and prosciutto salad are delicious. Bartenders Charli and Andrew were great!

It's great if you like a pub atmosphere. The vegan options are good for drinks, and pub food should be. They have a tremendous selection of draft beer I would have tried if I still drank.

Food is different for everyone. But for me, I love it flavorful! And that's what Three Dollar Deweys delivered us!! My wife got quite the bowl of Buff Mac'n'cheez. Myself, A Steak'n'cheez sandwich. Unfortunately, I did not take a picture of the cheezy bread I ordered up, but that too was very delicious.
If you love flavor and enjoy options of craft brews, I'd give this place a go!
Cheers!

Brought my 87 year old mom to take a break from shopping and so glad we did. Bella was our waitress and she had such a great personality and so attentive but not overbearing. We had the clam chowder which was spot on for Maine and the best pretzel sticks with beer cheese I have had in a while. Will definitely come back for dinner.

Great pub food.

Good service and food. The reason for three stars is the tap quality is pretty bad and the beers taste faded, dirty, and muted.

Three dollar Dewey’s did not disappoint! I was visiting from New Jersey and chose this restaurant as I was looking for charcuterie boards in the area.
The atmosphere of the restaurant is very welcoming and there’s also free popcorn!
My charcuterie board was amazing - I have had plenty, and this was by far one of the best ones I’ve had.
The service was also great as well. I recommend this restaurant.
Went for happy hour, great prices & good food! Portion sizes aren’t huge (as expected) but food was good! We loved the pretzel bites & also ordered the chicken fingers. I got the Well $5 drink & it was a mid shelf tequila which I was pleasantly surprised with, boyfriend got a beer. Would come back.

This place is overrated, commercialized and all hype. The food is sub par at best. When we arrived, we were seated right-away and we ordered within 5 minutes. However, we waited over an hour for our food to come out and, when it did, our orders were made wrong, the quality was poor & part of one meal was missing completely, which was supposed to be eaten mixed together with the rest of the dish. This didn't come out for another 20-30 minutes later! They didn't even apologize for their errors nor make it a priority to cook this asap. The waiters just kept bringing out food to people who had arrived long after we did! The food itself was substandard and mediocre. It was not tasty, nor pleasing to the palette. The steak tips were disgusting, made from a cheap, tough cut of meat that contained thick, tough tendons running all throughout. Also, they were supposed to be medium doneness, but they were rare with raw parts. The Avocado Ensalada salad was dismal with soggy lettuce and oxidized avocado. Also, it was supposed to come with shaved parmesan, instead of the goat cheese, but it came loaded with goat cheese and no parmesan. The fish tacos were pathetic. I am not a fan of fast food, but the tacos at Taco Bell would've far exceeded a top notch review by the Phantom Gourmet when compared with Deweys pitiful attempt at a taco. There were only 2 tiny, mini tacos that contained only 2 measly ingredients, fish which was supposed to be fried haddock, but it was impossible to determine, as it was served in tiny, shredded pieces, and unsavory coleslaw, which was about 90% watery dressing and 10% coleslaw. Also, the French Fries and Sweet Potato Tots were not fresh, nor homemade, and were overly fried to where they were dried out, although full of grease, and hard and unpleasantly crunchy. I contribute the array of errors to the Waitress who didn't write anything down nor pay much attention. I contribute the poor food quality to the manager who determines the standard of food to purchase and prepare, which is less than fast-food quality. I contribute the flavor, taste and texture to the faulty handling and storage of the food, as well as to an unskilled, incompetent, untrained, inexperienced chef where cooking is not their forte nor their passion! In any case, we were pleasant and didn't complain and just ate what we were given, as much as we could tolerate, because by this point we were famished and didn't want to wait another 2 hours for them to prepare something else, which we didn't have high hopes would come out any better or more tasteful. Also, we left almost a 30% tip, which was a large amount, as the food was unreasonably overpriced, paying Maserati prices for a Pinto concoction of crud. We appreciate that serving is a tough job that doesn't pay well, and we were more generous in light of the holiday season. However, the waitress was so ungrateful and didn't even thank us. But what really prompted this precise, uncomplimentary, spew of discontentment was the appalling fact that the waitress and/or the staff appallingly added a large extra tip onto our credit cards!! When I realized this, I immediately emailed the manager, to inform them, as well as explain the whole situation, as stated above. His reply was paltry, unsympathetic, nor apologetic. This person just made pitiful, pathetic excuses rather than take accountability and tried stating that "bills got mixed up", which was a crock of lies! Then, the manager didn't even make any attempt to make amends for all that we went through nor offer us any kind of gift certificate, full refund or anything. They were abrupt, cold, uncaring and took it lightheartedly. However, credit card fraud is not something to be taken lightly! Everything about Deweys, from the staff to the manager to the food quality and preparation, to the wait times, order errors, ungratefulness, and poor customer treatment, to the overall attitude and behavior towards their customers was just deplorable, unacceptable
