“OHH MY, I THOUGHT I REVIEWED THE OWLS' NEST. BEST BURGERS IN THE COUNTY BY FAR!!!!!! My hunnie and I have come hear almost once, if not twice a month ( when we can) since they opened if, I am not wrong. Food is amazingggggg! I tell everyone! Customer service top notch! Family owned and operated!!!!!! Prices you can not beat. For the Taj Mahal quality at the Big M price. NONE of the nasty horrible side effects either. My lover enjoys the Jalapeño bacon burger while I go back and forth between 3 hehe..the bacon, cheese burger, the Chipotle gyro burger, or the Chipotle gyro fries. Ohh my! all ohhh sooooo yummmm.... Owl NEST never leave us!!!!“

“🥰Excellent New England style clam chowder. My steak was cooked to perfection. We were celebrating our anniversary and they gave us dessert on the house. Pricing was moderate. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Excellent service, food and cleanliness! Garlic fries were fantastic!“

“Great food and drinks and a great staff“

“Super cool tap and tasting room where it is encouraged to sit wherever you please indoors or outdoors, with whatever drink you order and any grub you get from the vendors. I am a gin lover and was able to sample the Painted Lady gin after trying a cocktail featuring it. So good I had to buy a bottle. The pil and cream ale were refreshing and dry as well. Kudos to the bartender! Stop by whether alone or with a group for a good drink and bite.“

“Best burgers and fries in town!“

“Fort George's is such a fun place to go! The upstairs menu offers amazing pizzas and salads. We have ordered the Island Hopper a couple times and love it! When we were in town this time, we stayed downstairs to order and it was SO YUMMY!!! My sister and her family are Vegan. They ordered the Vegan Nashville Chicken Sandwich and loved it. My daughter ordered fish and chips and it was delicious!!! I ordered the chicken strips and it was probably the best chicken strips ever! They were delicious! You can eat outside or inside and the environment is chill and the atmosphere is fun. The downstairs is family friendly. I would highly recommend this restaurant!“

“was very pleased with the fantastic service. the host and 2 servers did a great job backing each other up and helping each other with hardly any verbal communication. The halibut fish and chips were prepared good and tasty. I can't believe we had never stopped in before.“

“Well there chowder is really good I stop there and see local diggers and fishermen selling to him. Good food fresh caught great staff I’m in. I’ll be back.“

“Huge shot out to Merry Time Bar. My wife and I have not been able to shoot pool since before COVID-19. This was how we met so it brought back a ton of wonderful memories. Plus the games were only 50 cents. Talk about a deal. We have recently started to play pinball, and this bar is a dream come true. As a new player it was amazing to get a few high scores, and we look forward to the comedy night—as she used to perform in our hometown as an opener for national talent—and, of course, the pinball competitions and special days. A big thank you to the owner. It was an absolute treat to play some of the top games ever made and they were all in good condition. As a small business owner, I understand how difficult it is to run a good company, and this one is top notch. If you are in the area, do yourself a favor and drop in for a wonderful night. I cannot recommend enough!!!“
