It’s just a great, classic, neighborhood bar. There are too few places left like this.

This is among the most confusing dive bars in (greater) Portland. It's effectively on the SMCC campus, but is in absolutely no apparent way a "college bar." Its general vibe is a perpetually dark, quiet, locals-only sort of dive that makes considerably more sense as a community staple in a working class neighborhood, yet it's effectively on the campus of an immaculate community college and mere steps from postcard-worthy views and a beach teeming with affluent tourists flocking to Air BnBs in some of the area's most expensive real estate. Is it the "last great holdout" for "real locals?" Is it an investor's elaborate ruse to keep the lot's property value down? Will you get 86'd if you try to order an imported beer? Who knows! Karaoke on Wednesdays.

Great little dive bar near the ocean! Tons of FREE / EASY/ SAFE parking!
Walkable to a tiny beach and Spring Point Bug lighthouse.
Awesome Live music, from Surf Sunday’s to metal nites!!!? Their booking gal Nancy , gets THE COOLEST bands from NYC, Japan, Boston and right here in Portland, Maine.
PLUS! A Super rad DJ - Matt Little, from our local alternative station, WMPG!!!
The food isn’t fancy, but it’s your typical FF at a bar. This isn’t fancy old port food..
Chicken wings, nugs, fries and righteous jalapeño poppers!
Good prices and a nice staff!
Just be patient standing at the bar for your drinks, and your food order, because they get jamming in there!
Definitely check them out if you’re looking for a dive bar, rock & roll adventure in the Portland, Maine area.
Come across the bridge! We are friendly & fun!!!
And as always, don’t forget to tip your bartender *** and the bands on Surf Sunday! ?♀️ ? ⚓️
They live off those tips. ?

Great place to enjoy an afternoon beverage on their patio. Inside has plenty of seating and friendly people.

This place looks too cool. It was opening as I was waiting for the bus. It was all I could do not go over and catch the 2nd or 3rd bus instead. Really looks like my type of place. I’ll be going back.
