Reviews
The restaurant had some pretty good vibes and the inside it’s very cool looking. The entrance up to the front door is very different than a normal restaurant. The food was great and the service was fairly quick. They have a very large selection of beers for everyone. Big restaurant with plenty of seating at a table or the bar.
It's a nice place, I'd go back
The entrance is unique and so are some things about the building.
The beers are good. I had a flight and of all 5 beers there wasn't really one that I didn't like.
The fried Brussel sprouts are good and taste a bit like kale chips, I'd definitely get that again. Wednesday is wing night with 1.00 wings which we happened upon and glad we did as the wings are big and delicious. The dry rubs are where it's at for the flavor/sauce options in my opinion.
The staff was friendly kind of.
I plan to go back
A very popular local choice. You're going to find the place buzzing most times with a foundation of loyal locals. This place is on the Maine Beer Trail so, if you're here for craft brews you'll need to check this place out. It's unique, beer is good, food is pretty good. Atmosphere is good.
Randomly chose this Brewery to try when we were hungry and in the area. The parking lot was a little ways from the entrance but there were instructions on how to find the brewery that made it easy to locate on foot. The beer selection we chose was a nice variety. They had flights of 5 at an affordable price. The food was excellent. The staff was friendly. The environment itself was exactly what one would expect from the setting of a nicely renovated mill space. Highly recommend the dill wings and some dirty fries. They were the most delicious of all the flavors. My favorite beer was either the State Parks or the Coastal Haze IPA. Staycationland was very drinkable. There was a lot of room inside the brewery and the staff was all friendly and helpful. Highly recommend a visit if you're in the mood for a beer adventure!
My wife and I stopped here on our way through town in the beginning of Oct 2023 for lunch. This was one of the best brewery's we have been too. We enjoyed the industrial look, and the food was great. Wife really liked the potato skins and I had a fried chicken sandwich. If we are ever back in the area, we will be stopping here.
Great Beers, great food, and fun cocktails! The cocktails are a little on the pricey side but they’re unique. I love the atmosphere and there is a lot of seating indoor and outdoor. Trivia nights on Thursdays are great too! This is a great place that my husband and I frequently go to.
Their beer is great.....
Visited here last Saturday afternoon (12/3) and found the place about half-full with people dining. There was room at the bar for myself and 2 guests, but apparently we picked the wrong side as we were quickly asked to move to the complete opposite side, no big deal, we just didn't see open stools over there. Once sat, the 3 of us were given 1 drink menu and 1 food menu. When asked what we wanted to drink, I had to ask for a drink menu myself as the only one was being shared by my company. So they bring us an additional drink menu, but for reasons unknown, take away our food menu. We also at this point asked about beer flight options. We were told no flights are available, as they did not have enough flight glasses for us. Less than half the tables were occupied and there was still plenty of room at the bar. But not enough flight glasses.... Ok. We order a regular size beer each. When those were brought, we were asked if we would like to order any food. We had to remind them that they took away our only food menu when they brought the 2nd beer menu. We got the food menus back and ordered some apps..The artichoke dip and a soft pretzel specifically, and those were both fantastic! We did order another round each, as the beer list had quite a few different things that all read as tasty. I only had time for my 2, and payed my tab. I didn't catch it at the time (and in hindsight feel silly about it), but the bartender failed to return my debit card when I signed the receipt! I had to return back to the restaurant from the parking lot to get my damn card back!
Very weird experience that afternoon, and in complete contrast to a prior visit in time myself, and what other people I know who have been there had experienced.
Like I started with though, their beer is great. The "Icestorm of '98" had an awesome citrus haze to it, and the "Firestack IPA" kinda had an amber thing going with Mosaic hops. I'm also a fan of their "Coastal Haze" IPA, and am suddenly thankful I can find that retailed in a lot of local stores.
The atmosphere is perfect in the old mill turned into a restaurant by Baxter Brewing Co. Great tap list of their delicious beers. There is outdoor, indoor and bar seating. The menu had several options for all.
