The bread and butter was divine, the burrata... superb. We were hesitant on what to get for dinner and decided on the Caesar salad with steak (cop out entree choice, which I can acknowledge). We got four little pieces of steak, were not asked about the temp of our steak, and the salad was something you could buy at a store. I am aware that a Caesar salad is by no means a complex choice, but you would figure with the local and better than chain style vibes, the Caesar would give at least those large chunks of Parmesan. The menu said "anchovies, sourdough croutons, Parmesan". There were no anchovies, the dressing tasted watered down or barely there (the dressing is everything in an "upscale" Caesar salad imo) and the Parmesan was small, and gave no flavor. I would 100% go here again, although I was not satisfied with my entree. Every other meal that went past us was divine looking, and I think unfortunately the flaw in this restaurant is their Caesar salad, but everything else made it so worth it!

The staff were great but the food ,was awful so bad and it was not cheap either. The pizza was burnt and so thin it was like a tortilla with dried up cheese and minimal dried out basil. The fried chicken sandwich was supposed to be lime and cilantro but it was a dried out piece of chicken with some coleslaw? ( maybe left over from the night before and heated )I don't know it was all inedible we ended up throwing it out after one bite of each . The fries were the only thing that was edible but for $11.00 they should be . We had done take out as it was too hot to sit outside or inside. Would have sent it all back had I eaten there. Won't be back

Despite living in Windham for quite a few years now, my wife and I have not visited as many spots…read moreon this side of the town. Due to our location we typically chose Westbrook or Portland. I will also say knowing this is a sports bar like spot I didn't have the highest expectations to begin with. Which I appreciate when a spot surprises me and blows those expectations out of the water. That did not occur here! It was our second choice for dinner tonight due to our first spot having a wait. So firstly for a positive I will say Deck House does have ample parking and lots of space for people to eat so that's a plus. Also if you are looking for a classic sports bar vibes with many tvs on the walls and plenty of bar seats this may be your spot to catch a game with friends. Overall for our experience service was slow, they were friendly it just took a long time for food and other tables received their food much faster after shorter waits. My wife got the Braised Beef Short Rib and it was cooked well and was extremely tender, she enjoyed it very much. I got the Lobster Mac which was good but much smaller than I expected and some lobster pieces were tough due to their large size. Our meals and then two margaritas which were decent were almost $100. We did get some of the more expensive meals off the menu but I do believe for the price we could get better food elsewhere. I'm glad we tried it but nothing would be worth revisiting for. Hopefully if you visit you have a better experience!

I seriously can't wait to go back. Located in Windham and next to a go-kart + mini-golfing spot, odds are you've also driven by this restaurant. The views from the deck are spectacular, and I can't wait to go back during the fall foliage season. The indoor space is also lovely -- it feels like a giant cabin! We loved the vibe: it's cozy, lowkey, and casual, which is precisely what we were looking for. The service was excellent from the minute we walked inside. The hostess was accommodating when we asked to sit at a different table (better views!), and our waitress was kind and constantly checking on us. The menu was more extensive than we expected. They have it all -- an impressive starters section, plenty of pub/tavern food, and even dinner plates. They also had a full cocktail menu (all reasonably priced), plenty of local beers, and wines. We had the strawberry margarita with jalapeño-infused tequila ($10), and it was delicious (albeit a bit small for a marg, but it was also only ten bucks). Our burgers ($18) were great, but unfortunately, a bit overcooked. The fries were just okay, nothing to write home about, and portion-wise, smaller than what we expected. We also ordered their four-cheese macaroni as a starter, and that was delicious! Overall, however, we enjoyed our time and can't wait to return!

We tried the sweet thai chili wings, Buxton Mac Tacos (same ingredients as a Big Mac) and the raspberry cheesecake chimis. We ordered at the bar and were given a buzzer. It took an exceptionally long time to get the food. When I went up to order a refill on by drink, the bartender said "Your food has been done". My buzzer never went off. We determined it had malfunctioned. I get that they are super busy back there, but for the amount of time that had passed, I would have expected someone to at least holler over to let us know we should come get our food, rather than let it sit there and get cold. Keeping in mind that it had been sitting for a while, it wasn't bad. The wing sauce didn't really stick to the meat, rather just puddled up in the basket, but if you rolled them around in the sauce, the flavor itself was good. The tacos were bigger and more filling than I ever thought they'd be. I'd get those again. The star of the show were the deep friend raspberry cheesecake chimis. SO GOOD! I've actually craved them to a point where I may go back to the bar just to eat those! LOL Other than the buzzer issue, we had a great time at Skip's that night. There was a band playing and still no cover charge was paid at the door. We had a fun night of food, drinks, and dancing. I'd definitely return.

We got here before opening and a short line had formed and we got inside right on time in a quick manner. Friendly staff all around and they have a lower level, like a pit along with some tables and an upper section as well. Lots of people but it didn't feel crammed which was great.

I've been here a couple of times now, and the food and service have never disappointed. Today, the Cubano was juicy and flavorful, and the house fries are seasoned in a bistro rub that's salty and smoky, golden fried to perfection with a crunchy shell and a soft, pillowy center. This is elevated pub fare at its finest, with good portions, fair pricing and a great atmosphere in a restaurant that straddles the middle ground between the coastal towns around Portland and the start of the lakes region in Windham. This place is especially magical in the summer, when the greenery is back and the weather is consistently nice, but I expect it will get busier and busier at peak season, especially as word gets out... and why wouldn't it? Who doesn't want to grab a bite and a drink while soaking up the light reflecting off a lazy river ? The good news is, they are taking reservations, so you can always call ahead to lock in a table on the weekends. Aside from the riverside back deck, they have a full bar with seating, inside tables, and another outdoor patio area in the front along Main Street (aka River Road). Red City Ale House hits the mark for all occasions... I feel perfectly welcome and accommodated coming in to dine solo, I could easily see this being a casual date-night destination, and I could also see it accommodating families or larger groups. Whatever your occasion, RCAH is a road trip worthy destination.
