Definitely worth a visit if you find yourself in town. The menu has the standard classics--burgers with a mix of entres--but prepared and presented to perfection. Clearly a cooking staff that knows and loves their craft.

Great burger, but was totally turned off by other diners feeding their dogs out of china plates that my waitress was handlingHello and I am so glad you enjoyed your burger. We are dog friendly on our patio and provide separate metal dog bowls for water and food for the pups. We provide many hand washing and sanitizer stations for our team members and training for Servsafe acceptable food handling. As the case with all of the flatware and plates we provide for our guests, we can not always know or condone what they may choose to do with a particular item, but what we do control is how we clean our used plates and cutlery, which is with an industrial dish washer with industrial detergent that heat sanitizes at +180 degrees. To put it in perspective, our dishes are cleaner and better sanitized than the dishes that people dine with at their own kitchen tables most nights. Cheers!

Got up late on Saturday and wanted some good food prior to shopping. I now filled the bill. I choose the 2 for $12 salad and children scampi Delicious and I had enough for leftovers. My mate had chicken spinocolli which is always delicious Had baked cauliflower with it which was amazing. Great food and Brianna was a attentive server. Thanks

OBC is once again going to be a place that sets the trend for Orono. Theyâve put together a great pub menu with many locally sourced items and a great variety of choices. On the first night, I sampled the blistered Brussels sprouts, pork belly lollipops, and charcuterie board with a group of friends. Everything was delicious. I ordered the macaroni and cheese with pulled pork as a main course and would definitely eat that again. The following night, I brought my hubby for round two. He found the burger to be fresh and fabulous, I delighted in a steak and cheese sandwich with just the right amount of creamy horseradish sauce. Spicy fries complimented both orders. A note that pork belly lollipops arenât for everyone- while he enjoyed the flavor, the texture was a bit off-putting for my husbandâs taste. More for me!All the house brews and the guest taps will satisfy even the choosiest beer connoisseurs. Some great ciders fill out the options for non-beer drinking. Foosball, ping pong, corn hole... a great way to play with friends or family while you wait on your meal. This is not a quiet place for a romantic dinner. Grab some friends and hang out in a big, bright, busy place that is sure to become an Orono institution.

Had lunch and late night snack during student fall weekend at UMaine. Amazing Garden Mule, will try the lavender one next time. Good variety of beers. Delicious Cornish pastie. Standard fare like burgers is good for the kids. Liked the British football atmosphere; bartender played accordion tunes in evening. Like another review, had the same appetizer for lunch and dinner - the presentation was quite different, so I suggest they standardize things so folks get exactly what they got before, otherwise it's a bit confusing and not what one expects. Also, wanted to have bangers and mash, but they were out on a Friday afternoon (?). Hope to try next time - overall we liked the place and we'll be back!

Get yourself a flight of draught beer, some chicken wings and wood fired pizza, canât go wrong. Chicken wings have become ubiquitous at restaurants and are often done poorly. Not here, wings were spot on, come in a verity of sauces and are extra meaty. The pizza was quite delicious cooked in a wood fired oven, that you walk past upon entering. We left full and very satisfied.

I've gone here a couple of times the night before a conference and it is awesome! The food is great, really nice selection of cocktails and a relaxing and fun atmosphere. The service is friendly. This place is often super busy which makes sense because it is.
