    Part of the front wine shop area.
    Fred B.

    This place opened in October of this year, and seems to have scratched an inched, or at least found a niche. This place is about the drink, and almost solely about the drink. The front is basically a wine and beer shop, the back is a bar, with a very limited amount of nibbles. The bar area is small, and when crowded, it is noisy. There is a small area with covered chairs and a couch, the rest of the seating is high, communal tables and plastic stools - not a formula for a comfortable sit & sip. There is a good limited variety of both beer and wine choices on any given day, maybe 6 or 8 of each. The wine pours are decent, the pricing about $5 a glass. The beers are heavy on the craft beers, IPA, and more fad brews. There was a great Belgian Ale - Bavik Premium Ale at $5 a pour. Not a bad place for a drink or two, not a long term commit for an evening, and rather noisy. Service is generally good, but you have to go to the bar for your drink, and when it gets busy, it is more than a bit of a zoo. Early in, a few brews, and then out is the ticket here.

    Jeff is great! Libations is great! Come here... enjoy the atmosphere & friendliness. No food here but they have a menu from a restaurant closeby that will bring the food over.

    Black Forest Cake

    Nice upscale place for drinks in Sanford. Good ambience, extremely knowledgeable bartender. Really knows his beers and cocktails. Food was okay. Went on Taco Thursday and had the shrimp tacos. Tasty but soggy. Pretty sure it was pre made and popped in the microwave to heat up. Not exactly fresh but it's not a restaurant per say so ....I didn't have the hot dogs but the patrons around me swear by them and assured me they're delicious. Had the the Black Forest cake for dessert- again, just okay. I will definitely come back- not for the food but definitely for the beer.

    We had never been to Hugger Mugger Brewing until their anniversary party/renaissance festival this…read moreyear. It was amazing! I was super impressed by everything about the brewery and so wish it was closer to me so we could hang out there all the time. The place was absolutely beautiful. I loved their wooden beer signs and their outdoor tables. The space was huge and a great place for fun events. I loved their telephone booth selfie booth! They had food trucks on site and a great outdoor space. I really loved seeing so many dogs there! The event itself was absolutely incredible!! It was so cool seeing people dressed in full armor! I loved seeing the birds too. There were people dressed in costume who sent us on a bit of a scavenger hunt. We so enjoyed meeting the different costumed actors and being sent around to look for specific characters! A lot of thought and planning went into this event and we so appreciate the experience. Their beers were AMAZING!! We tried three different beers and loved them all. My favorite was the Spice Ghouls. I don't think you can go wrong with any of their beers. All of the staff members we interacted with were super nice. They were all working so hard to make the beer lines move fast. I love the cups!They had people pay $1 for the cup and then use it for each beer. I love that because it cut back on waste! I'm looking forward to next year. Hugger Mugger gave me a real sense of community. What a great place! I'll definitely visit again before their next anniversary.

    We wandered into Hugger Mugger Brewing Company at 229 Wicker St., Sanford after a few antique shop…read morevisits, not quite knowing what to expect. The local warmth in this place overfloweth. Our amazing bartnder, an antique junkie herself, was super cool. She talked us through the beers on tap, shared what the regulars loved most, and without hesitating, poured us tastes so we could discover our own favorites. If we're back in Sanford (and hoping we will soon) we'll for sure be back at Hugger Mugger.

    We came here to see a band we really enjoy and they were great! We hadn't been to S&B before and it…read morewas quite the drive to get there. Even tho we planned to arrive well before the band would start playing to have dinner, we were lucky to find a parking place, let alone a table. The interior inside is really lovely. The staff is terrific and the food was very good. I had the pastrami Ruben with the tomato & cucumber salad. Both were very tasty. My spouse had a BLT and a salad which she enjoyed. For dessert we shared the butter toffee bundt cake that has a caramel glaze and is topped with a small scoop of local ice cream. It was absolutely incredible!! We wanted to order another, it was so good! If we're in the area sometime I'd like to stop in for lunch and that mouth watering bundt cake. I would hesitate to come back in the evening, only because as the night went on there were some patrons so drunk that the atmosphere started feeling really amped up in a concerning way, like a fight was about to break out at any moment. It's not a big place inside so it could quickly get out of hand. I can say when something like that happens anywhere, it's not a situation to find yourself in as an innocent bystander. Had it not been for that element it would have been a really enjoyable night out, but alcohol and aholes don't mix well together. I'm still going to rate it high for the delicious food, friendly and attentive service, the beautiful interior, and the great music.
