Reviews for Friar's Brewhouse in Bucksport, ME
Best lobster roll we tried in Maine, and we had about 5 - big chunks of claw meat instead of shreds and served in a house baked... brioche bun. Deserts were outstanding. Nice beer flight. Read more
So glad we stopped here! Amazing service, delicious food (the Bahn Mi was ridiculous), and fantastic brews. Definitely going... back again! If you are in the area stop in! If you aren?t in the area, get there! You?re welcome. Read more
This was such an incredible meal. DO NOT BE DETERRED BY THE ATMOSPHERE. What this place lacks in welcoming staff and atmosphere... it 100% redeems itself with the food and beer. I was immediately turned off by this place due to the decorations, religiousthemes and staff. However after a few min of settling in and understanding the waitresses humor, I warmed up quite a bit. Iordered the seafood chowder and my boyfriend got the lobster roll. Holy monastery were these both incredible. Brother dongreeted us and chatted pleasantly as we finished our meal. We are really touched by the homeyness and charm that we left afterenjoying this place for an early lunch. Definitely a highlight and DO go out of your way to enjoy this food. Obey the rules anddon?t make any substitutes to your order. They know what?s best for you. Read more
Here's the deal with Friar's Brewhouse - it's a FANTASTIC spot for lunch in Bucksport that takes itself sorta seriously and... honestly you should, too. The beer: great. The food: great. The portions? Enormous. The service: friendly and efficient. Like alot of Maine the whole place has a "we're tired of dealing with tourists" vibe and honestly who can blame them but if you GoldenRule it like you always should then the gruffness melts away like the cheese on the macaroni noodles they serve in portionslarge enough to feed 3 adults (or one if you sit at my table). Super fun and delicious. And DON'T SLEEP ON THE WHOOPIE PIES Read more
Amazing service and food! We enjoyed the clam chowder-this is a must have! As well as the lobster roll. Both were incredible. We... split the roll and it was more than enough for the 2 of us! So glad we stopped in! Read more

We went to Friar's Brewhouse for brunch on a Sunday morning. My two companions were both well-pleased with their food. One had... breakfast pizza which she said was excellent. Another had macaroni & blue cheese which he said was very good. I chose theclassic Mac & Cheese which was very unremarkable. There wasn't much of any kind of a cheese taste. My friends both ordered thefour beers sampler which they found good. Naturally each had their favorite, but there were no complaints. Friar's is very smallbut if you're seated in a good spot the view is fabulous. Reservations are recommended. I give Friar's a 4-star rating becausemy companions enjoyed their brunch even though I was unimpressed. Read more
10/21/2022 Friday lunch Waitress Kimberly is awesome. Food is so good and so much! Had the Lobster Roll, flight of beer and... individual pours, Baguette Bahn Mi, Hamburger, Pork Pie, Chowder, flight of beer - loved it all !! Fresh food ! Ordered a loafof bread to go. Everything was absolutely delicious. Be prepared to come and spend several hours. All of the food is made byhand, "from the ground up". You can't rush perfection. Nothing is small. #Recommended #VickieTravelz Read more
