    Highly recommend Fogtown brewery! Great beer, food and vibes! Everyone is so friendly!

    Margherita Pizza

    Wow wow wow! I think this was the overall best brewery we visited while in Maine! The beer and the food were incredible! Add in the ambiance and you get this gem in Ellsworth. We walked over from the main strip of downtown and loved the vibe as soon as we arrived. Walking down the stairs to get to the brewery versus the glass blowing shop was so cute. With apples on the ground from the apple trees, it couldn't be more "Maine". When walking in, you order at the bar for both food and drink and then there is a booth/trailer out back where the food comes out. The inside is set up for open mic night and then outside they have a full stage where they host live music. There is plenty of seating outside at the picnic tables as well. We ordered a couple beers, the Margherita pizza, the potato chips, and the Carrot Top salad. I cannot tell you howwwwwwwww amazing the salad was!! I have never had a salad like this and I ate every last bite. The roasted carrots were so good, combined with the crispy onions and the dressing; it was heaven. The chips were incredible and the dip that comes with it just elevates it that much more. I believe it was a pickle dip of some sort? I can't remember specifically, just that I needed a vat of it. Then the pizza?! We couldn't finish it but man did we want to! Add all this tasty food to a beautiful backdrop and we were the happiest little foodies in Maine. Hands down best stop in Ellsworth!

    While staying in Ellsworth we wanted to try a local brewery and was not disappointed, well we were disappointed they ran out of pizza dough and we could not order pizza, which looked amazing! Located on a neighborhood street a block off main street with plenty of parking is this hidden gem. They have indoor and lots of outdoor seating. The night we were there, there was a jazz duo providing entertainment. Our group ordered a variety of beers, cider and seltzers. The blue maple selz had a unique taste, but was refreshing. Beers included fog light , Maine coast , riverbend and aqua culture- with pine and oysters. The beers were very good and we purchased some to go. The atmosphere is relaxing and friendly. They promote farm to table and sustainability. A perfect location to relax after a day in Acadia

    So I'll get to it: the beer was ok. We REALLY wanted to like the beer, they sounded so interesting, but a lot of the tasted watered down.That said, we loved everything else. The staff were SO kind and fun and the space they have is super cool. We sat inside but the outdoor space has a lot of seating and heaters for if it's cold. They also have pizza which is a plus for a brewery and it was very good! Would I recommend the spot? Sure, stop in here for a pizza and maybe a drink- you'll have a good time.

    I did not have the pizza because we just had pizza over Pats but we been dying to stop because the comfort vista from the street is amazingly irresistible! I finally found time enough to stop and man wasn't I pleased! The beer tastes just like your grandmother's fresh baked bread. The cordwood reminds me of the Best Brown Oak Pond Brew we use to brew and bottle up to Skowhegan, but better! Fresher and yum! My friends had a lighter shade of beer tastes nice good on the light side. The kindness of the staff and the ambiance of the place is beyond words. Come take a look. Taste the beer they will surely have something you'll love.

    Fantastic beer and pizza! Family jam and flagship IPA were delicious. Get the pizza with the ricotta! Staff were all lovely and helpful.

    While visiting Bar Harbor, we drove over to the next town to go to this brewery. It is located in a neighborhood and there was a lot of street parking. We did not order any food here but we had a few samples and had a beer. The people working at the bar were quite nice and friendly. The brewery has a kind of laid back feel to it with indoor and outdoor seating and there were posters for live music. Pretty cool place.

    Parking is spread out. Parking lot and street parking. Plenty of places to sit, mostly outside. Started with Vice (Hefeweizen), smooth and tasty. All orders at the bar. They have brick oven pizza, salads and the like. Wide selection of beers on tap to choose from and plenty to take home with you. Great place, come check it out!

    4th of July early evening and we snagged a seat in the beer garden just before the music started. Was happy to be away from the stage so we could visit comfortably. 3 flights of 4 beers were ordered and every one received a favorable review! Lots of good feedback about the 100% Maine ingredient made. We also enjoyed a pretzel with the beers (the mustard had quite a kick) and took home 2 brick oven pizza's that were well received.

    Outside seating

    Plenty of dog friendly outside seating, excellent service and great beer and food. The menu is very creative and everything we ordered was delicious. The beer was outstanding!

    Bar area to order your flights!

    This place is so fun and a little less busy since it's right outside of bar harbor. I came here by myself on a Saturday evening and was treated to a lovely live band made up of a one big family. Beer- I got a flight of IPAs, they weren't my favorite of all time but that's simply preference, they were definitely flavorful and unique Food- I got a mushroom pizza which was fired outside. It was slightly charred which is fine but I felt like there could have been a little more flavor- like truffle oil or a garlic butter sauce which may have been there but it needed a little more. The mushrooms were really tasty thought and I still devoured the whole thing Service- despite it getting pretty busy I got my flight right away and my pizza promptly. The person taking orders was really friendly and cheerful

    Chicken and Rice pizza, exactly like the bowl - the sauce was too hot, also accurate!
    Sally B.

    We love this place when we're visiting Maine. Delicious pizzas, great seating area (in nice weather), and good beer. I am somewhat of a picky drinker and I always find something I love. I also appreciate the parking lot nearby, though street parking near here isn't bad either. Ellsworth is lucky to have this spot since there's very little else like it in the area!

    Hot Preztel, excellent brew salad (gochujang dressing?)

A damn good pizza shop that has an almost vintage, late 70s, early 1980s decor. In an area of Ellsworth/Bar Harbor otherwise known for its craft IPA's, lobster rolls, and a dizzying plethora of seafood salad platters, Finelli does itself justice. Even on a Sunday night, they can do a brisk business & can sling it with the best. Their pizza comes with its sauce done circularly. And their half size meatball grinder should get a Silver Slugger award for its impressive enough portion size. Wow - it was good. Check out the retro arcade in the back, where $0.50 might get you a new high score on Defender, Frogger, Donkey Kong, or a half dozen other video games...all while Def Leppard's "Too Late For Love" might just be blaring overhead in the background.

I had a pepperoni slice, a mushroom onion slice, and a tomato pesto slice, all were very good. Crust was that perfect level of crispy and the cheese was slightly gooey.

    I discovered this place after tasting one of their chevres by purchasing it at an Ellsworth…read morepurveyor. It was then that I discovered that they made pizza in one of those wood-fired, outside stone ovens. They are only open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday afternoons so it took me 2 years to get there but I finally made it. It is a farm, a goat farm, where you can buy goat cheese, goat pepperoni (goateroni), and buy and eat a pizza. There were 5 pizzas on the menu. They are not cheap ($13 for a pizza the size of a paper dinner plate) but they are delicious! We were really hungry so we planned to eat a pizza each but then we ordered a third and all of them were worth it. See my picture of the chalkboard menu. We ordered # 2,3, and 4. I have to say that the one with the caramelized onions was the best, probably because of the bite of the goat and feta cheeses. Watch the pizzas cook. It takes about 2 minutes. There is a long, high table to eat at or some Adirondack chairs to sit at eat under cover in case of rain or too much sun. However, this did not work well for my wheelchair companion so we just ate in the car. I also took home a chunk of cheese. Unfortunately, the pizza maker did not know what it tasted like but he was honest about it. It was delicious. Worth the trip if you like Neopolitan pizza with the thin and ever so slightly charred crust. Otherwise, eat elsewhere.

    This was an amazing Pizza stop. Homemade pizzas made from scratch. With goat cheese from the…read moregoats that live on the farm. The owner also made the pizzas and she was super nice / friendly. The atmosphere is outdoors so it is only a seasonal restaurant. Delicious, but only open for a little bit and on the weekends. All of the clientele are locals that are regulars and freeze pizzas for months later. That's how good it is. They are meant for 2-3 people. Smaller end brick oven pizza.

We waited over an hour for a large half-pepperoni, half-cheese pizza. The burger and fries we ordered came out in about 30 minutes, but the waitress bringing out the burger said the pizza was coming. Twenty minutes later we inquired again, only to be told they were backed up. We got that message from the 50-minute wait, but when people who ordered pizza after us, received their pizza before we did, we knew this place had issues. When the lady finally brought out the pizza, she was like, "sorry," but big deal, by then the damage was already done. They made no efforts to make it up to us, especially considering we had waited so long. Very disappointing. They really didn't care about our two han-gry (hungry and angry) kids who really wanted to eat that pizza. The restaurant had a fairly steady flow of customers ordering, but it was not crowded or overwhelming. People enjoyed food and drinks around their tables and watching the big screen televisions with trivia and sports updates. Nobody was at the pool table. After waiting so long, my son was trying to be optimistic and said we should play some pool, since no one was playing. Then he saw the big sign that said only 18-year-olds and older, no exceptions! Needless to say, we were sorely disappointed with this experience. For a Monday night, where the pace was not very busy or unmanageable, this should not have been that hard to make a pizza in less than an hour. This was ridiculous. As a result, I do not recommend this place, especially if you have kids. Check out the other pizza places in town and save yourself a lot of time and frustration ... or order your dinner at lunchtime.
