I like the Blackened Haddock Tacos and the pretzel sticks. Pro Tip: get BOTH the "beer cheese" and the "beer mustard" and get extra of both. You might have extra, but you can use the extra on sandwiches tomorrow. The extra mustard is also great with cheese and crackers as a snack. The blueberry cobbler is fantastic! The peanut butter pretzel pie did not impress my husband; he said the pretzels themselves tasted cheap, like grocery store pretzels. I have been trying to get them to add a vegetarian pasty to the menu. They have almost nothing vegetarian in there, and a Greggs style cheese and onion pasty would also be extremely traditional and surely wildly popular. PLEASE ADD A VEGETARIAN PASTY!! And/or a fish pasty, which would also be very traditional. Oooh, what about a Stargazy Pasty with leeks and cream? Now, THAT would be traditional and would certainly get some media attention. I will raise my rating to 5 stars as soon as this place adds a good vegetarian or fish Signature Entree (preferably a pasty!!). That is literally the only reason they're not getting 5 stars, that it's way too oriented towards meat eaters. (They do have a grilled cheese toasty and a vegan garden burger, so I would still go there if you are vegetarian or vegan, but keep your expectations low when it comes to selection.)

Ok. I'm not going to lie. When I first looked at the menu I actually headed next door to…read moreMargarita's to eat instead. Boy do I regret that decision! We came back the following night for a REAL treat... First of all, Tony was our server. What an absolute sweetheart!! He had nothing but fantastic recommendations for us. He was definitely not your standard "waiter". He spoke to us like we were regulars, which we appreciated, considering we were from Massachusetts. We ordered three of his suggestions: wings, fish and chips and the spicy margarita. Outside of what was recommended we also got the beer cheese and GIANT soft pretzel, bangers and mash and the creme brûlée. First off- this was my first time trying beer cheese, so I was beyond excited. I hate pretzels, however. Guess what?? They were BOTH SOOO GOOD!! The pretzel was the size of my giant head and was so soft & salty. It really paired well with the creamy beer cheese. I'd come back just for this appetizer every time. The wings too, actually! I was a little hesitant because I read the word "dill" on the menu but they really tasted more like Buffalo wings with a note of dill at the very end. I think I might be in love.... On to the main event! The Smithwick's beer battered fish and chips... WOW. It was a little different than I'm used to (which was a great thing in this case). The batter was thick and crispy (I'm used to thinner) and the haddock was super moist. Very fresh! I order this meal wherever I go and this is definitely in my top 3 (out of probably 50 others). I was hoping I could switch out the chips for fries because, well, I've never had traditional chips before! I must say I was pleasantly impressed though! They were the BEST and completed the dish perfectly. My fiancé had the bangers and mashed. He said it was good and very traditional. I did not indulge, so I can't relay that in my review. Last, we ended the meal with a MUST try....the creme brûlée. LEAVE ROOM FOR THIS DESSERT! The top was a hard sugar coating while the rest was truly a creamy dream. I might have to stop back in JUST for this before I head back home! 5 stars. Definitely. 6 stars for service!!

The kitchen closes around 8:50pm during the week so keep that in mind. We found out too late in the evening that their jumbo pretzel was sold out.

(is what we screamed as we were walking up the stairs) Notes: * Right above Ipanema's, I believe another party -- but more dancy -- bar. * This is where early to mid 20s year olds get their party on. * A friend of a friend had a whole history lesson for us of why this place is called The Reverend Noble Pub. There's an actual history here, but unfortunately, I cannot remember. He had helped named the pub and thus, our trip to the party bar to check it out. * I thought service was quick. * It's a long narrow space. The bar flushed to one side, high tables and chairs to the other. We had several awkward instances of people trying to pass ("oh you're going left, oh right, oh oh"). * I'm assuming this place fulfills its mission, just not something I'd be down for on any other night.

I am pretty amazed that I am the very first to review the Reverend Noble! Affectionately referred…read moreto as "the Rev," this bar is quickly becoming my favorite watering hole in Bangor. Located upstairs from Ipanema's, the space consists of one long bar and a bunch of tables around the perimeter. Service has always been pleasant and attentive. The only downside about the space is that it tends to get pretty toasty, but luckily the windows on both ends open, allowing for some cross ventilation. I usually order beer or cider (I prefer Downeast), but last night we tried a flaming Volcano bowl, which knocks the socks off those sugary Scorpion bowls and their ilk found elsewhere. Mixed drinks also seem to be generously poured, but don't expect anything terribly out of the ordinary. An added bonus is that you can order tasty snacks from Ipanema's kitchen. I've sampled their flavorful jerk wings and crispy coconut shrimp - both were satisfying, though not life-changing. They also offer a mug club (you earn your mug by trying every beer on their extensive list). Definitely worth a stop on any tour of Bangor's growing downtown drinking scene or as a destination for a chill night of catching up with old friends! I'll be back.
