Like artsy types? On Longfellow Square, this bar has a very unique atmosphere and great people. I've never gone in there and not had a fun conversation with someone.

Portland Old Port

Relax in the low-lit, literary themed atmosphere and sip a West End Mule or Surfer Rosa. Want a snack ? Try the deviled eggs or the Mac n' cheese (with bacon !) You won't regret it!

Fantastic, creative cocktails . . If you want a burger their's is fantastic! Feeling more adventurous they always have unexpected specials, that are delicious and thoughtfully executed.

Stopped by for a late night beer and was pretty impressed with the beers and ciders on tap . Like most places in Maine they has some unique brews and nice people.

David Guerrieri

Good beer selection - also beer shot combos which reminded me of NY - had a local reading the night I was here, good people good vibes????????

Roger LeBlanc

Wow "This is the home of WORD PORTLAND". Poetry and great literary readers and original authors in person in the pub environment. First Tuesday Night.

Portland Old Port

Try the West End Mule, it's a cold and crisp twist on a Moscow mule , subbing whiskey for the vodka makes it a little more Portland.

Joe Cooper

Great place to grab a local brew . Cozy atmosphere .

Wyatt Funderburk

Great wings , good beer selection , and a low key vibe.

Asher Kahn-Krell

Didn't have enough beers to be a good bar but also not enough food options to be a good restaurant . Didn't really enjoy the beer selection either. The atmosphere is nice though.

Meghan Quinn

Van Hatten, great simple cocktail served in a coupe!

Kevin W.

There's a good selection of beers , but they're only available while they last. This can either be good or bad, because you're often told your request is not available, but it makes you try others.

Susannah Jordan

I love the poem along the bar so much.. beautiful. A little help would be beneficial for the bartenders .

Jimmy Lobley

Great place to have a beer and a bite to eat.

CJ Thomas

Great service! Delicious food. The LFK Burger was the bomb!

Rob Goossens

Very busy place so make a reservation (or go on time)! The food isn't that great, but the staff is very nice if you get me.

Kai Adams

Killer hot wings @lfkportland & great beers . Cheese plate is awesome

Jimmy Lobley

Great beers , bartenders , music and atmosphere.

Alan Mooiman

The menu cocktails are good, but all a bit on the sweet side. Mac & Cheese is just ok - it's not creamy.

Michael Sales

They have an interesting take on meatloaf...try it!

Beerlady Tullys
