Belly up to the Bar this summer for Maine seafood, drinks, and good times!

Our soft launch in 2021 consisted of a quaint food trailer and beer garden, but this year, we’re all grown-up!

Serving fresh local favorites and seafood with some South American vibes. Painkillers, margaritas, beer, and wine too.

The first time here and it was more than I expected. I ordered fried clams, and my husband ordered a smash burger. The clams tasted great. It was lightly breaded and found no bits of sand that sometimes you get just while eating clams. I thought very good quality clams. However, it was pricey for one person. But if sharing, then the price of $27 is reasonable. They give you plenty, at least I thought for sharing. My husband burger was good. He thought the burger was a little dry but overall good. The fries and coleslaw were ok, nothing really of note. The place overall has a great vibe. Out door seats and places to eat inside in case it rains. Service was good as well. We went when it was busy so there was a little wait but not too long. I also got a strawberry lemonade, and that was good as well. They had specialized drinks, which looked good. Didn't try, though. We parked on the side of the building and there is parking at the front.

Delicious, fresh seafood with great views of the water. Variety of table options, some open to the sky and some covered. The clam ragoon was crisp and silky inside. The fish and chips was satisfying. Bonus was the yummy, not too sweet, strawberry lemonade.

Loved the vibe. Kinda waited a bit for the food. But no complaints on taste and everything was hot coming out. I got the lobster roll that came with fries and the jalapeño strawberry margarita. Tasted pretty good and loved the cups!

A good place for full belly fried clams. Nice spot at the end of Commercial away from the Old Port crowds...but not the prices. Summer in Maine, get your wallet out ... Id still go back though.

This place was a spontaneous stop for us when we arrived in Portland. It so happened to be happy hour at the time (3-6pm M-F). The cocktails are delicious, the bartender is kind and welcoming.We went back the following day for the fried fish sandwich which was absolutely delicious!!!It will definitely be a stop we make again in the future.

Very nice totally updated. Only two things to be aware of. They only serve whole clams not strips as some prefer. 2 they have no control over is noise level. Can get quite loud from jet traffic at near by airport. I will definitely recommend and go back myself.

A good experience overall but a little pricey. Staff was friendly. We liked the food with the exception of the steamers. They were tasty but disappointing because had too much sand inside! Each one had sand and made it taste bad…

Stopped in for a snack - wanted to try different places. Got the crab dip- it was good but could been much warmer temperature wise (came out super thick, like spreadable velveta cheese and not like a dip). Atmosphere was great and so was the staff.

This place makes very good food. The service was wonderful. We visited on a cooler day. However, it was very good even though it was colder outside. We ordered a fish sandwich and lobster roll. The Hake fish was a first time for myself, and it was wonderful. My husband had the Lobster Roll. He enjoyed it. Thank you for great service. This was my first time in Maine and the first food place we ate at.

Very good .. fresh fish.. they are allergy friendly.. friendly staff.. got food quick!
