While visiting family, we went to Woodman's for dinner. It's hard to decide which was better, the food or the service. We ate at the bar and the bartenders Shawn and Shane were great company. My scallop risotto and manhattan were so enjoyable. I'm looking forward to going back next time I'm the area

This was one of my go-to bars during my college years. Recently revisited this spot a couple months ago during Umaine Homecoming. Some slight changes have taken place, mainly tables/layout changes but still felt similar enough. It was on both my wife and my list of places we needed to visit. As I mentioned this was one of my go-to bars and this was a spot she would visit during a few trips with her Dad while visiting the area. So, it was a spot we had chances to unknowingly cross paths before we met. Our visit was great, we ordered a giant flirtini as it was a popular drink of choice during my college days and is a perfect drink to share. One of the bartenders even believed she recognized my brother, my sister-law, and me despite the time that had passed. While it is a college town bar earlier in the night they have a great restaurant/pub vibe before the college age debauchery begins! Especially nice when you can enjoy a drink on the patio with the fire pits. A great establishment for the Orono area! Friendly staff, good drinks and good vibes!

Great food. Steak and salmon were cooked to perfection. If I could I would eat their green bean appetizer every day. Bartender needs a primer on what it means to make a dry martini but other than that this place is spot on.

This gem located about 5 miles from our hotel in Bangor was a nice treat. Superb service and the food was very good! Not gonna lie the fruitini made with vodka and topped with fresh raspberries was delicious. Highly recommend. I'd say it's a little pricey for the servings but the service was top notch. Our meal included two local IPA's and my fruitini, two salmon specials and the Caesar salad.

Excellent food and cocktails. We hadn't had a great meal out, since arriving in the area. The Woodman's did not disappoint! The OBC beer is def best brewed in the area from our perspective and we hit most of the breweries. The food was top notch. The cream sauce and crusting on the haddock was "chefs kiss". We will be back next time we are in the area.
