Comfort food at its best. The atmosphere is great and cozy . If you can get in at the bar do it! Always a lively crowd with all the local flavor. The Shepard's pie =!!! Happy hour drinks are only $2!!!
Amazing brunch !! We were a party of 6 and this place was packed on a Monday at 10. seated together within a half hour. service was excellent and the food came out quickly and was absolutely amazing!
Great for any meal during the day. Brunch and the French toast are great! Shepard's pie is fantastic. Be prepared for a wait, but the service is great and food is delicious, so it's worth it.
Lamb shepherd's pie or the meat loaf is the way to go. You must try the Mac 'n Cheese as well . My aunt and uncle share the Mac 'n Cheese as their entree.
Had the most amazing dinner here. The salmon with pumpkin risotto will be on my mind for weeks. The duck was amazing as well . Cant wait to go back
Best brunch in Portland. Suitable for a table of 4 or smaller. Drinks are stiff and the corned beef hash is out of this world
For brunch try the huevos rancheros , for dinner try something from the specials list, it's ever changing and always good. Wash it down with a Congress Street Bellini .
Loved the scallops and the house wine . The others all liked their orders of half roast chicken , lamb top sirloin , meatloaf . The mashed potatoes are great.
Amazing, outstanding food. Try the corned beef hash for sure and listen out for excellent specials.
The Lamb Shepards Pie is to die for. A good drink to match with it is the Portland Manhattan
Awesome food great service. Cool atmosphere. Two thumbs up!
Everything is good stop in and enjoy the wait staff and the ambiance
Homemade mac & cheese w/hot dog slices. DELICIOUS! Sometimes I'll ask them to add bacon . If I'm feeling especially calorie oblivious!
Very generous with their bacon ! And the martinis .....wow.....strong n' tasty!
Brunch was awesome! Worth the wait
If you go for brunch , you have to try the house made corned beef hash . It is the best I have EVER had.
Excellent breakfast in a cute place.
Good breakfast place but be careful as menu items change.
Potato Gnocchi for breakfast is heavenly.
Short ribs just melt in your mouth.
They show EPL soccer , which is always great.
Try the Baxter Stowaway IPA with the Potato Gnocci . A great combination.
The cedar-planked salmon is fantastic!
The burger is very good
Rochefort 8 for $5 is a f'ing steal! This place is worth going to just for that!
Less crowded on a Tuesday night
Scallops were amazing!
For the health conscious diner , try the fruit and yogurt .
The best french toast ! You won't regret it.
Sausage&biscuits for brunchies/Seafood specials for dinner ! Everything is delicious
The burger was fantastic!
My favorite place for brunch
Great brunch spot . Nice people. Huevos Rancheros are particularly delish
Lee's suggestion for Brunch

Lamb shepherds pie ... No photo as its all gone
Breakfast served until 2 pm!
Get the appetizer portion of the carbonara . just trust me: it's too much food otherwise.
The Bacon and Egg Salad is the fade.
Best place for brunch . Get the Fried Egg Sandwich .
Eggs Bennie will never disappoint
Order their Casco Bay Scallops , thank me later.
For Brunch : Veggie Gnocchi , Huevos Rancheros
The crab cake benedict was amazing. Large portions on everything. Come hungry. - Daniel Wasilewski
Corned beef hash and maple latte. Unreal brunch. Also the chicken and waffles with real maple syrup are great, if they haven't run out. - Emily Taintor
As the other reviews said, the grilled muffin is the way to go! I had the banana nut and it was fantastic. - Jessica G
One of my favorite walks in the summer and fall. Great view of the islands. Lots of benches and picnic worthy grass. - Dana Villmore
Great prices for black rice, chia seeds, quinoa, gluten-free granola, rice flour, and hemp. - Misstie Pollard
Tried the seasonal pumpkin latte and it was lovely. The right amount of spicy and not too sweet. - Jessica Karlesky
