“We had a wonderful dining experience at Barnwood Grill at Great Wolf Lodge! The food was delicious, fresh, and enjoyed by the whole family. What really made our visit special, though, was the outstanding service from Abby.

Abby was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely caring. She even reminded us of Sadie Sink with her ponytails! 😊 Most importantly, she went above and beyond to help us with a special request for our kids and personally made sure the chef was able to accommodate us. That small gesture meant a lot and made the experience so much more enjoyable for our family.

Great food, great atmosphere, and exceptional service. A big thank-you to Abby for making our visit extra special—we truly appreciated her kindness and effort. We would definitely come back again and highly recommend Barnwood Grill to families visiting Great Wolf Lodge!“

“This place is a true gem. There is something for everyone in this amazingly diverse, freshly made, and uniquely crafted culinary experience. Tonight, I requested a menu item that had been tweaked, as they constantly evolve their offerings to keep new and exciting dishes at the forefront. When I asked for it, they didn’t hesitate or give the usual “not sure we can” response—which would have been understandable, especially since the place was packed. Instead, I was assured they would do their best, and if it couldn’t be made, it would be personally explained to me. Adrienne, who made this possible and is essentially the director of the restaurant, bars, and lounge—a demanding role, especially on a busy day—went above and beyond, and I am so thankful to her. The dish was fantastically prepared, and I deeply appreciate both the food and the service. Bradley and others also stopped by to say hello and see if there was anything else they could help with. Truly top-tier in every way. Eating here feels like choosing to stay at a five-star hotel in NYC—exceptional, thoughtful, and memorable. Thank you so much to Adrienne and her entire staff“

Patrick's Rooftop American • $$
115 South Water Street, Lewiston - 5.85 miles

“Things started out on a bad note as the location in Open Table is incorrect. We didn't discover this until after we had already parked and paid event parking rates only to discover we were over a mile from the actual destination. We moved the car to a different lot and had to pay a second event rate fee. We were originally seated at stools at a counter top directly under a speaker. I'm not sure what the purpose of a reservation is for if we weren't to be seated at a table. We requested to be moved and were seated at a table in the far corner - still better than the stool. From there everything went up- the service the food and the drinks were wonderful. I had the lobster roll, the portion was huge and delicious. The Turfboard was a meal on its own even split between two people. Our server was fast and checked on us regularly. Minus the sting of unnecessarily paying $45 for parking and the confusing seating - I really enjoyed the evening.“

“I have a severe egg allergy, and the kind staff at this location went above and beyond my expectations. I typically get just the gloves changed, just because in the fast food industry I do understand it can be very busy and cross contamination cannot be guaranteed.

The staff who were serving me and my family opened new toppings to make sure my food was not touched by other sauces or toppings that include eggs.

Thank you very much, I really appreciate this treatment.“
