The upstairs bar during happy hour has this cozy, dimly-lighted nook. The bartender was really nice. Just had a pizza, it hit the spot for a casual bite. Solid for drinks and small plates.

Great spot for a quick drink. Small but cozy space. The music was on point. Got a classic old fashioned, solid pour. Perfect for a fast stop before heading out.

Fish tacos and the lobster BLT were both fresh and tasty! Portions were just right for sharing with friends. We hung out for a while after eating, and the vibe was super chill.

The Bolognese with their house-made gluten-free pasta was spot on. Paired it with a nice Chianti that worked really well.

The Maine cabin vibe is so cute! Wood tables, bookshelves... it felt really warm and cozy. Just the right spot for a chill breakfast with friends. The pancakes were solid, but honestly, I was there for the atmosphere.

The blueberry pancakes at the complimentary breakfast were a real treat. They paired perfectly with a freshly brewed coffee&mdash;just the right start to the day. A nice perk for hotel guests.

The lighting was just right, not too dim. Felt cozy but still elegant enough for a nice dinner out. Really liked the vibe here.

Been coming here for years. The mozzarella sticks are always crispy, and the spaghetti and meatballs tastes exactly the same every time. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

Been coming here for years, and the ice cream is always just right. Love that you can hear the river from the outdoor tables.

First time trying their chicken and mozzarella wrap, and it was a solid choice. The wrap was warm and the mozzarella was super melty. Potato salad on the side was creamy and had a nice little tang to it.

The fried pickles were a fun first try! The batter was light and crispy, and the pickles inside stayed nice and tangy. The crab cake sandwich was also solid, really fresh. Fish tacos had a good amount of filling too.

The cocktails here are really well-crafted. I appreciated the thought that went into the drink menu&mdash;it paired nicely with our small plates.

I was so full but had to try the black rice custard. The rice was perfectly cooked, still had a nice bite. The custard wasn&#39;t too sweet, just creamy and light. Really appreciated that. Definitely a highlight.

The Americano was spot on. Staff was friendly, and that oat bar was a nice touch.

Been coming here for years. That curry seafood bowl is my go-to. The shrimp and mussels are always fresh, and the fish is just so tender it falls apart. It&#39;s the one thing I know I can count on every single time.

First time trying their crab cakes. So much real crab in there, you can see the chunks. Got that nice sear on the outside, still tender inside. A bit pricey for two, but honestly worth it for that quality.

The poutine was the star here. Perfectly warm, savory gravy over crispy fries and cheese curds. Grabbed it from the harbor-side shack and ate on a bench watching the boats. Quick service, no fuss.

The steak frites here are a solid splurge. The steak was cooked just right and the fries were super crispy. It&#39;s definitely on the pricier side, but you can taste the quality in the meat.

Nice little bookstore with a cafe inside. The kids&#39; section is huge, which is great. We picked up a few books and had some decent pastries &ndash; the croissant was pretty good. A pleasant spot for a quiet morning.

Been coming here for years. The halibut was cooked just right, not dry at all. Good spot for a date, but it&rsquo;s on the pricier side.

The pasta here is the real deal. You can taste the quality in every bite, from the fresh ingredients to the perfect al dente texture. It&#39;s clear they put a lot of care into it. A bit pricey, but you get what you pay for.

Friendly service. Our server knew the menu well and gave good suggestions.

This place is my go-to for a solid pour-over. Their single-origin options are always interesting, and the barista knew exactly what to suggest. The fact they had power during that last outage was a lifesaver&mdash;got to enjoy my cup in peace while the rest of the block was dark.

The Noah breakfast is a huge portion, definitely enough for two. Coffee was good too.

Been coming here for their breakfast sandwiches. The bread is fresh-baked, and they use quality stuff. It&#39;s just a solid, simple combo that works. That&#39;s pretty much why I keep coming back.

The salmon was cooked just right, flaky and moist. Service got a bit slow when it got crowded, but the staff stayed friendly. That&#39;s the main thing I remember.
