This place used to be a great place for my wife and I to have a couple beers and some great food. It also used to be a great place to bring the kids. Easy, fairly reasonable and great food. Sadly this is no longer the case. In the last three visits we've had mediocre service and the food was actually horrible with the exception of the apps we ordered. Undercooked, not well prepared or presented. Not to mention two of us being sick two of the three times going there. I can honestly say unless there's a huge shake up or every other restaurant closes I'll likely not go back. If you can't properly cook a piece of fried fish you'd better get back to culinary basics 101 read more

Been here more than a few times and the food is fresh, home made and cooked to order. The prices are reasonable and the service is quick and friendly. The homemade onion rings are to die for. read more

Went here because it seemed popular and busy and had a good menu. We had a burger and chicken tenders. The burger was ordered as "medium" which SHOULD mean a slight pink interior. Instead, It was only browned on the outside, very red inside, and tasted like a frozen patty that wasnt even seasoned. The sause and toppings made up for the lack of seasoning, the bun was good. The side mashed potatoes were basic but good. The chicken tenders looked burnt but were fine just did not have any taste. read more

Outstanding food in a warm, casual atmosphere. Staff were friendly. Definitely recommend!

First time here and will definitely be back if I visit the area again. Staff is super friendly, service is great and food is sooo delicious! We got the BLT dip based on other Yelp reviews and I highly recommend it as well. Like nothing we ever tasted and a winning recipe. I ordered the Pearly Trail with chicken and I loved it. A little spicy but not too bad at all. My BF got the pork quesadilla special and he really enjoyed it as well. If you are nearby, stop in, you won't be disappointed. read more

Walked in Sunday with 7 hungry people at 4 pm Rest had 3 tables in it, was told we couldn't be seated because we didnt have a reservation. Really? we cant be seated until 530? very disapointed for sure...we went up street and spent about 600 dollars. guess they dont need the business .... read more

Reasonable prices for pretty large portions. Very nice waitress and nice to sit outside on the deck with a view of the lake and backyard! A little dark inside though. read more

Campfire Grille - Ledges Capellini - American Near Me - Bridgton, Maine

I was spending Labor Day weekend nearby & stopped here on Friday evening. There were three empty tables on the back deck. After checking with the hostess if a well behaved road weary dog could eat here I got the green light to be seated. An extremely nice waitress was already wiping down the 8 seater table when I lay by my water dowl to listen to them discuss the appetisers. The house favorite was the home made chips, they came with melted gorgonzola & green onions, I only had the few plain chips which escaped the melted cheese but they were delicious & the humans soon polished them all off. The other app was a lightly battered basket of deep fried brussell sprouts with a buffalo dipping sauce, they raved about them but I did not get to try a single one. Apparently they could make me 'gassy' & the humans think their farts don't stink but that dog farts are horrendous, not very fair, but that's a dog's life, full of contradictions & human hypocricy! The entrees were a 1/2 rack of ribs with baked beans & fried onion strings for the male, (insert hypocrite farting comment here) & Mac n' Cheese with chicken for her. The ribs were extemely tender, slowly cooked but finished on the grill to give them a bit of 'bark' and came with just the right amount of a root beer based barbeque sauce which was surprisingly not as sweet as I'd feared. I didn't try his sides, but he ate them with his usual customary speed, he sometimes reminds me of my early days at the shelter with the communal puppy food bowl & some of the gluttons I was forced to share my dinner with. Her mac n' cheese was superb, a very generous portion with an excellent cheese sauce, with small pieces of breaded chicken throughout. She couldn't finish it & the leftovers were a great late night snack on Saturday night. A bark out to our wonderful waitress, Leanne, she was outstanding, very friendly but knew not to pat my head as a food handler in case it offended other diners. I recommend this restaurant's back patio area & food & staff very highly, 4.5 stars & I certainly hope to come here again, Maine is a great place for dogs! read more

I love this place! The "frose" is so delicious. Its not a fancy place but they have more than the basics. The staff is friendly and the bar is always packed. I love the idea of the "campfire coach". If you drink, they drive you home. Keeping everyone safe! read more

Great service! Excellent food! My husband had the meatloaf special and loved it! The drinks were well worth the price. The only complaint was that it was hot inside the restaurant. Otherwise, we are looking forward to going back , soon! read more

Pleasantly surprised! Very polite service, comfortable casual atmosphere, and the food was great. The "Deer Chips" are exceptional! I enjoyed the Sunshine Salmon, which was cooked just right, very moist, and not overdone on the maple glaze. The spinach and sweet potatoes that came with it were very tasty and fresh. My husband liked his Pondicherry Salad, but wishes it were a bit larger. My Pear Ginger-tini was delicious. The waitress left the shaker with me so I could finish off the whole thing. Very nice dining experience. We'll go back for sure. read more

My favorite things about the Campfire are the root beer bbq wings and the drink menu. They change the drink menu seasonally, but always have a fun martini and cocktail list, including the smores martini. Great seasonal draft beers, with local selections features. Really close to where we stay in Bridgton, so we have not had to take advantage of the 'Campfire Coach,' but an offer of a safe ride is always a plus. Don't expect fancy ambiance, just locals and tourists mixing to have fun. Also has a motel attached, but I have no review of the accommodations. read more

Campfire Grille - Happy New Year! - American Near Me - Bridgton, Maine

We came here in June when my husband accidentally overcooked our chorizo on the grill at the cottage so we drove a few minutes to Bridgton. We both ordered the clam chowder and it was delicious! The server was very nice and attentive. I ordered the chicken wrap and it was plentiful! My husband ordered a steak, he was very happy with it and there was a man playing cover songs! It was a busy place!! Our dessert was the smores! Everything was excellent, we were excited to return. However the weekend we did want to return, we called to make reservations and the woman on the other end said there were no reservations left and then I asked if I could walk in and she said "you can try but we have a beach party tonight and I don't know if you should come" which I thought was an awkward response. So I ended up driving to Delaney's in North Conway for dinner. read more

Good restaurant.. Good food.. service leaves a bit to be desired, but it's 'casual' so somewhat understandable. I'd definitely go back. My shock was with dessert. Now, my cheeseburger was $9.95.. (Great burger by the way) It was served with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles.. AND a plate full of fries - Yum!. But ONE slice of peanut butter pie was a nickel short of NINE DOLLARS. Yes, you read that correctly.. One slice - NINE DOLLARS. I know, I know... "If you don't like it.. then don't order". Well, I didn't. And wouldn't in the future. But I just thought that was a bit interesting: dessert costing roughly the same amount as an entree. Good food.. but good luck on that one guys. read more

Great service from Martha today at lunch. Always had a smile and my salad was fresh and yummy!

Cool cute spot. Owner got to wait in our party after a long hike up Pleasant Mountain. Friendly service, nice atmosphere and food good. I will be back. read more

Campfire Grille - Moose trail sausage with grilled chicken - American Near Me - Bridgton, Maine

See all

There's really nothing terrible about this place, but nothing makes it great either. The atmosphere is like it wants to be an Applebee's or some other tacky chain. The food is boring America fare with no creative twists. In this era it's comical to me when a place still serves frozen french fries and sugar filled cocktails. But if you want a quick meh cheeseburger and beer this place is fine. read more

Came in with low expectations but left very impressed. Progressive menu with several fun seasonal items. The draught beer selection was great. I had the Chicken Mac n' Cheese which was fantastic. The rest of my group seemed to enjoy their meals as well. If you are in the area this seems to be the best dining option. read more

Came In their 2nd anniversary.... Great beer selection... Lots of good local brews... I had a choc porter (from Maine) and a Brooklyn choc stout. Both delicious. While ordering takeout they setup the show for their party and an ICE LUGE both in front of me... Would have partaked in both (ice luge =dance floor dance party) but preganant wife at home needed food (as did I)... Great proximity to Shawnee peak for après ski.... Owner kicked me down swag... Takeout food took a while, but was good read more

The food drinks and waitstaff in bar area was real good the restaurant was extremely warm even hot air conditioning just plain suck Go on a cool day read more

I miss prime rib Mondays! That was always worth going for! Now we have gone occasionally and it's ok

Rare Tuesday night out with my wife and we chose the Campfire Grill and sat at the bar. Bartenders were nice enough but we never received our entree, 2 burgers, and our appetizer took over 1/2 to be served. We ended up leaving after waiting 1 and 1/2 for our burgers. Asked if they were coming and were told they were. Waited another 10 minutes and decided to just pay for the appetizer and call it a loss. The $10 for stuffed potatoes skins isn't worth it. You only get 2. It was a very disappointing evening. read more

The food is pretty good considering the lack of choices in the area. My biggest complaint is the lack of attention from the server. She barely came by, my water was only refilled when I asked. And it took so long for our appetizer and food to come out. A different table with the same amount of people as us ordered after us with similar items yet they got their food 10 minutes before we did. There were only 4 tables at the time as well. read more

My family and I have been coming up to Bridgton for over 50 years and this has to be one of the best, if not the best places to eat. We were a bit worried when they moved further down 302 towards Naples, but the drive is worth it. The service is warm and all age friendly. The food is reasonably priced and you get large portions. My mom will argue that they have the best burgers in town. My brother got the Bald Eagle mac and cheese and devoured it within minutes. I got the Cod sandwich, which had the best and biggest heap of coleslaw I have ever had (and I hate coleslaw). They also have a 21+ bar with small tables to sit at as well. Everyone in there seemed to be enjoying themselves. We will be back next summer :) read more

This place was AMAZING!!!!! We had honey buffalo chicken tenders to start off and they were very juicy and flavorful! .... Next up the main dish was absaloutley delicious it was Ledges Campalini it was made of angel hair pasta, fresh tomatoes, fresh mozzarella and basil it was to die for!!! Lastly was pudding shots ... I had 5 hahahaha! 4 s'mores and one vanilla caramel bourbon boy are they sweet! The service was amazing our waitress was a sweetheart!! def a recommendation !!! Oh by the way we loved the Magician !!! True talent !!! overall an amazing experience!!! We will def come back !!!! read more

Dropped my napkin- the waitress picked it up from the floor and put it back on the table with a pleasant but clueless smile on her face. Wasn't told refills cost extra, $6 for 2 root beers is robbery. Had to pay for bread which took 15 minutes to come out. Burger bun was so saturated with grease it was dripping and disitegrated in my hand. Overpriced, mediocre at best. Will not be back. read more

Fresh sourdough bread was amazing. Salad veggies were very fresh. Nice variety and "different" food - so happy to see something other than the same boring food you can get anywhere. read more

Food, service, and atmosphere are all a treat! If you are craving any one of these things Campfire exceeds in all three!

Poor service, hair in food!! Manager said she would send me a gift card and never did

$8 for kids grilled cheese and no drinks included is pretty outrageous. Food overpriced and overrated. Took forever to get simple meals

The food was good but the service is horrendous. It took forever to get a table and it wasn't even busy. They lie about their prices (which are way too high) and couldn't be bothered to bring me my to go back, which included half my meal. I gave them two stars only out of generosity. read more

My family, friends and I have been to Campfire dozens of times and it's consistently been a 5-star experience. They put a lot of effort into their menu and food prep (and frequently updated craft beer selection!), which is truly surprising for an otherwise unassuming roadside restaurant attached to a motel. You can know everything about Campfire Grille from this fact: it's always packed! You'll still get a table, but it's a busy place. All the locals go there after skiing, or many others snowmobile there as a destination. And even on week nights in summer, it's always busy. This is one time when it's definitely worth following the crowd. Go once, and you'll be a regular after that! Oh, and try the Apple Cheddar Turkey Panini while you're there! read more

Amazing every person in the place is great, food is Sooo good your missing out if you don't stop by.

Checked this place out based on Yelp reviews. Atmosphere is very casual, rather noisy. Food was surprisedly good. Had Asian sweet chili and root bear BBQ wings, shrimp plate and macncheese. Tasty. One disappointment was the service. No silverware on table and took a long time to grab someone's attention. Apps came and then within one minute so did our entree. Took another 10 minutes to get ketchup. Waitress was rather frazzled. In fairness, the place was busy....but a few minutes between apps and entree would have been nice. May try this place again, on a less busy night. read more

The service at the bar is awful, especially when the blonde is working. I went in twice and was totally ignore by her. Had to wait at least 15 minutes for a drink. This happened to me twice. The food though is wonderful, never had a bad meal. read more

A great find. We rented "The Hive" in Bridgton for our first trip to Maine. Vacation tradition calls for a precheck-in lunch and the expectations for the quality of the food are always high. The Camp Fire Grille will not disappoint you at all. The staff is awesome, even Jess as she was training on her first day of work at the Grille, did a great job with our party of 10.. The deep friend brussel sprouts and wings are awesome. The group had everything from salads to the burgers and the food was excellent. The entire staff was so friendly even providing us with tips on places to shop in Bridgton. One even better- they have Camp fire Grille Shark Week T-shirts- that is over the top. read more

I have been here twice and both times it has been very good. The Walden chicken and the buffalo chicken sandwich were very good. I went there on a Sunday during hurricane Irene and they were packed because they were one of the few with power. I still received great service and good food. 1 star deduct if it was located in greater boston. Definitely the best restaurant in the Bridgton, Naples area. read more

Bartender Meghan is so delightful, she keeps a good conversation while being very diligent to all patrons in the bar, and was very knowledgeable about the products on tap. I didn't know almost any of the non BIG name beers they had, so when I described what I liked in a beer, and told her to choose from there, she found me the perfect match for me. I can't wait to go back to try the food as well, but the bar service may be the best in town, between the staff and the other locals being so friendly, I felt like I was hanging out with family. read more

I learned some things here: * if you put soup on a plate it looks cool. * if you put soup on a plate it helps you stop from burning your mouth * if you put soup on a plate you can change tomato soup into gazpacho * ribs even if cold are nice The service was nice and fast enough. We would go back, but would attempt to coach them to heat and plate food correctly. read more
