Things To Do
Allagash Brewing Company
Allagash White is an OG and a must try. They have a lot of fun sours too! A little out of downtown but worth the drive
Bissell Brothers Brewing Company
If you like IPAs this is a must. One of the more popular breweries in New England
Definitive Brewing Company
We found this gem the same day we went up to see A Barn...maybe getting the sentimental nod, but the beers are great and the outdoor space is fun. Also it is across the street from Allagash. (Cheese served separately)
Maine Beer Company
This spot is a little bit of a drive up to Freeport, but they have some of the best IPAs out there.
Oxbow Blending & Bottling
These beers are just funky and fun. If you are looking to switch up the typical brewery that just serves IPA after IPA (no knock on that) this is your spot.
Urban Farm Fermentory & Gruit Brewing Co.
This place rocks. If you like kombucha (booch) you gotta check this place out. A bunch of hard booch on tap.
Fore River Brewing Company
This is quickly becoming one of our favorite breweries. They have such a wonderful variety and they are all very tasty.
Sagamore Hill Lounge
Amazing cocktails.
Broken Arrow
Farm to table plates. One of our favorite restaurants
Mr. Tuna
If you like sushi, and you only go one place on this list, make this the place. THE BEST TUNA YOU WILL HAVE. MADE IT ALL CAPS TO CONVEY OUR ENTHUSIASM. DO IT.
Duckfat
One word. Poutine.
The Honey Paw
Fun asian fusion place.
The Highroller Lobster Co.
Incredible lobster rolls (hot is the only way to go) and other classic New England dishes!
Central Provisions
Amazing small plates. This was the first restaurant we went to in Portland.
The Thirsty Pig
Fancy and exotic hot dogs and sausages with a great beer list!
Activity- Take the ferry to Peaks Island
20 Minute ferry ride from Portland. A quaint island with restaurants serving fresh seafood. You can also rent a golf cart to bop around the island.
Activity- walk around Old Port
Screams quintessential New England with cobblestone roads and red brick buildings. A bunch of boutiques and restaurants
Bug Light
Picturesque lighthouse!
