The food was TERRIBLE. Â We ordered the calamari appetizer and it was way under seasoned and rubbery. Â We then received our entrees and my husband's cole slaw was spoiled. Â He immediately spit it out and I smelled it, it smelled like rotten vegetables. Â His fish and chips were frozen (only 5 miles from the ocean) and when we mentioned about the cole slaw the server got an attitude with us. Â The table next to us had to send back their food as well. Â The service was incredibly slow. Â We will not be back again.
Review Source:After reading the reviews on Yelp I thought "It can't be that bad on service. Who knows maybe its ran by someone else now." If you are having the same thoughts, believe me when I say, the reviews are 100% accurate. The food is really good and of course the beer is great as well. What was leads me to leave a negative review was the service.
The server was more interested in talking to some girls at the bar, then being a waiter.
I understand sometimes it gets busy in pubs/restaurants sure, but it was not busy at all. To stand there and flirt with the girls for 10+ minutes, without even asking if i'd like another beer or if my fiance would like another water, is annoying at best.
Nevermind the people at another table had to go up and ask for more drinks while said waiter was joking around with the patrons at the bar. Well I won't be back, but hey, it looks like I'm not the only one... Good luck, maybe you'll have better luck then the other 6 or 7 other people that left reviews here too. I was expecting a better experience with the Shipyard name on it, and sadly disappointed.
I guess that I was happier than most. Â Not up to the Kennebunkport location, but the beer was the same and the menu, although more limited, was fine. Â They didn't need the TVs and the soft rock but kudos for being happy to substitute broccoli for fries. Â The stout was every bit as good as Guiness.
Review Source:I am a local and write this in hopes of appealing to the management to step it up and take notice! Â Have you visited The Rusty Hammer? Â They have great food and great atmosphere and happy customers. Â
At the brew pub, the chicken fingers are so dry and obviously just out of a deep-freeze they were disgusting. Â The burger was merely another dry consistency and lacked any flavor or juiciness. Â Why is this?
We are big on supporting local businesses and have been here numerous times but the food sucks and there are flies buzzing around the light fixtures.
I won't go back to this place. Our group had to clear every glass we ordered when they were empty and also had to go up to the bar and order every drink. Beer wasn't great either. Not a problem, but then the bartender actually had the nerve to comment about the tip being "low" while walking by. Really? Muttering on your way by about a perfectly standard tip? Learn some customer service skills.
I won't recommend this place to anyone ever due to the service received on a couple of occasions. It's too bad, because it's a great location. There is no reason to have an additude. Be professional.
I went to the brew pub for a private party and I didn't try any food. Â The server who worked the room was unfriendly, the atmosphere wasn't particularly interesting, and the beer was okay. Â I wouldn't go out of my way to go here but if someone else suggested it, I'd be willing to try it again just in case I was there on an off night.
Review Source:Was visiting Kittery so decided to try here for lunch. Â Beer is shipyard (no surprise there) and the place was smallish with an outside area for the warmer weather. Â It was Me restaurant week so we decided to go for the week specials, bacon wrapped scallops very good, fried clams very good, shrimp scampi ok, strip steak good, deserts very good...the place got quite busy after we came in and there was onloy one waitress/bartendress on duty so she was very busy, even with a table of 8 with separate checks, she did a good job handling the rush, beer was good............
Review Source:I spent the summer working up the street from the Shipyard and was a frequent patron....not because of the stellar service or delicious food (it has neither), but because it was one of the few places open in the area. Frequently needing to order food for 10-12 people for take out service, they refused to assist me in marking the containers or in any way organizing the meals for easy distribution. When I tried to approach the manager about the problem, i left several messages that went unreturned on their answering machine. The same lack of service goes for dine in. The service staff is inattentive and the manager just sits behind the bar. It's because of this poor service that I give them the one star. The food isn't terrible, especially for the neighborhood but if you aren't going to be treated to decent service, what's the point?
Review Source:Ever since the brew pub has changed managers and the kitchen had some changes this place has gone to crap! I used to stop in probably monthly and they would have a fun atmosphere and good food now everything I have had on the past few trips has been terrible. Everything tastes frozen and the service was terrible the last time a group of us went only 4 of us and there were not many people there yet still had to go to the bar and order drinks while our waitress was texting on her phone at the server station. We will not be going back there again and it is to bad because it used to be a great spot to stop while on the way home from work.
Review Source:Driving home from a weekend camping trip in Maine we found this place with the AroundMe app and decided to give it a shot considering I have had excellent luck with brew pubs in the past. The atmosphere was pretty standard for a bar, and the tables had Trivial Pursuit sets, which was nice. I was happy to see a decent rotation of Shipyard beers on tap (even though I have never been impressed with any of their beers, but that's a different story), and the price for a pint was soooo cheap compared to prices in Boston. That is likely due from it being in Maine, but I'll give them credit anyways. The food was fine, but for a so-called brew pub I would have liked to see them incorporate the beer into the foods more. Call me crazy, but when I go to a brew pub I expect beer to be the main feature, not just something that is monopolized by the brewery at the tap.
Review Source:The Brew Pub features the fine collection of beer brewed for the Shipyard company of Portland, ME. The beer is always fresh and current with the unique variety of seasonal flavors from the Shipyard. Personal recommendation: Export Ale.
The menu is essentially pub food: selection of wraps, sandwiches, burgers and traditional American pub fare. Decently priced: appetizers run anywhere from $4-$10, sandwiches are $7-$9, burgers $6-$8, and steak dinners $15+.
The establishment can be hit or miss during happy hour, which is Monday-Friday 3pm-5pm. There may or may not be a crowd in this modestly sized venue. There are several flat-screen TVs for sports fans, although in the absence of a major sporting event the televisions are normally on, but without sound.
