Good beer
Sep 2022 • Couples
Good beers. They have two locations with difference with food. One connected to restaurant Mainly Meats has full glasses of beer in the restaurant area and only flights in brewery where as in town you can get both plus more of pub style food like large pretzel.

Good beers on MDI
Sep 2021
We visited the tasting room, where we got a flight and purchased some beers to go. They had good IPA's and some less popular styles. There was no seating in the tasting room, and you can't get a full pour. Beers were good to very good; the Bragget was excellent.

Awesome BBQ sandwich big enuf for 2!
May 2020 • Couples
My wife and I stopped here on the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. So glad we did. A bit chilly that day but we were lucky enough to get a table in the sun. They did a great job of spacing everyone. Beers are always good - we went home with a build your own sixer. The sandwiches from Mainely Meat were fantastic! We said we could have easily shared one but the second halves made a nice lunch the next day. They had a three piece band as well, which was very entertaining as this area of the state was one of the first to get released from quarantine. It was well needed and thanks to Atlantic Brewing and Mainely Meat for a nice afternoon!

Beware of the actual closing time and how not to treat a customer
Aug 2022
My family arrived about 5:30 and got a flight after hurrying out of Acadia hoping to arrive before the tasting room closed at 6:00. As soon as he poured our beers, he asked if that was all we wanted because it would be last call. I didn't understand why he asked already until a family came in a minute later at about 5:40 and asked for a flight of beers. They were told that it was too late they had started closing down the taps already. With puzzled looks the couple asked why they wouldn't serve beer when the tasting room doesn't close till 6:00. The staff just gave an inconsiderate comment that they could buy some cans or go out to Mainely Meat's bar but it was too late for beer tastings. The family left without any beer. The staff immediately spent the next 5-10 minutes complaining that the couple was rude and made them mad to the point that it made her "blood boil". Staff was mad? The couple should be mad. Heck, I was mad and I had a beer. The family entered a business with a posted closing time, they were disappointed that they drove all the way there to get a beer tasting and wouldn't be served because the staff started cleaning the taps 20 minutes before the posted closing time, the staff was mad because the customer questioned why, and the staff proceeded to complain in front of another couple/customers and their kids. Worst customer service I have seen in a long time. Not what I expected from a small brewery/business. Might be a nice place but I won't be going back.

Average food; beer in tiny glasses
May 2021
We were starving so pretty much willing to eat anything, but we did not finish our meal.

First thing we noticed, we ordered a beer and a diet soda. The soda was almost $3 and it was served in a tiny glass that was not filled entirely. There were no refills. The same with the beer. We asked and were told the glass was 12oz so I guess we had about 10oz of liquid in each.

Our Mac and cheese came out cold. We complained and it went back to be heated and came back warmer. The heating was inconsistent so I feel it was likely microwaved. It tasted a lot like box Mac and cheese which is to say flavorless. We told the waitress we weren’t going to eat it. She was very nice and did not charge us. Overall the service was pretty good.

Our other meal was a sausage burrito with sweet potato. The sweet potatoes were not fully cooked. We did not finish that either.

We asked why the beer was served in such small glasses as we had literally never seen that before. Our waitress did not know but since the 10oz. beer cost $6 I think it’s safe to assume that by pouring it into tiny glasses they make more money than if they served it in pints.

Overall the beer was good but I’ve pretty much had it with restaurants in tourist areas that serve bad food and try to rip people off just because they can. There are too many other great towns (and amazing breweries!) in Maine to be willing to put up with this.

Ok, but not awesome…
Jul 2021 • Couples
First time here. Food was ok. The flight of beer was good. I would not get the haddock again, as it had too much breading. The fries were decent, and the veggie burger was not very good. It fell apart easily, and just wasn’t represented well. The mussels dish was excellent and had wonderful flavor!! The chicken appetizer was also salty and a bit too overcooked really like crunchy chicken Nuggets. Salad was excellent and would get again

Nice but limited outdoor seating (downtown)
May 2021
We visited their downtown location; small with limited outdoor seating but we gladly waited since we had two dogs. The servers were very attentive to them and brought them water bowls. We shared a bunch of apps and enjoyed them.

A Terrific Meal and Great IPA
Oct 2021 • Couples
We stopped in here for a light dinner and beer. The meal of mussels and frites was great as was the beet salad. Excellent beer. A real treat. Very friendly atmosphere with quick service and tourist tips from our super friendly waiter

Not Just for Beer!
Aug 2021 • Couples
While in Bar Harbor, we visited both the locations. The downtown location had the best fish and chips we have ever eaten—note, this is not your traditional beer battered fish and chips, but it was delicious. The suburban location was partnered with Mainely Meats, a southern-style pork barbeque joint. After two weeks in New England and more seafood than we’ve ever eaten (all yummy, but . . .) we were craving red meat. Mainely Meats did not disappoint! I had the pulled pork—moist and tender with a slight smokey flavor. Hubby had the combo plate and he loved everything, but particularly the pork ribs, which he said fell off the bone. OH. And let’s not forget the beer. Great selection and very good(our favorite was the Real Ale).

Decent beers
Jul 2020 • Couples
Good selection of beers brewed by Atlantic. The blueberry beer was pretty good and an interesting concept. Beers are $6.00 each, but it’s nice to stop in on a hot day.
