We had a wonderful experience coming to Blue Pig Diner. It's first come first serve so we had to…read morewait about 45 mins for a table of 6-7. The staff were so friendly and tried to help us get a table as soon as possible. They even kicked out two women that stayed way after paying at the table for 6. Our server was so nice, knowledgeable, and tried to help in every way. We all got a drink and brunch. Everything was delicious and came out quickly after ordering. It was quiet but a great atmosphere. They were willing to accommodate minor changes to the menu. All the food was fantastic. I would definitely come back, just with a smaller party. It was a wonderful experience.

Our first time going to brunch at The Blue Pig was a great experience…read more I assumed they would have a wait at noon on a Sunday. I called ahead to see if they would put us on the wait list over the phone. They would not. We arrived, and it was a cold day, and luckily they have space inside, with some benches and chairs, to sit while you wait. There is no host taking names. It is seat yourself in the honor system...meaning...you must pay attention to what party arrived before you, and then watch for open tables or bar stools, and seat yourself at the appropriate time without cutting other parties who were there before yours. Since this is a bit uncommon, I can see how this might cause some anxiety for people...I was thinking...will others cut in front of my party? We were a party if 3 and 3 bar stools opened up so we decide to sit at the bar. The whole restaurant definitely has a "bar/tavern" kind of ambiance to it. It does not feel like a "diner". It has a great vibe...very relaxed, neighborhood kind of a feel. The menu includes both breakfast items and lunch items...which was perfect for our party. The menu has several classic southern dishes like country fried steak with sausage gravy, chicken and pork waffles with a choice of maple syrups, and biscuits and gravy. The menu also has traditional breakfast items like egg sandwiches, and other such items. The menu includes classic brunch cocktails, a selection of beers, and several mocktails. I tried the chicken and waffles with the hot maple syrup. It was perfect. The fried chicken was crisp and in smaller size pieces which I liked. The waffles were crisp on the outside and soft on the insides, and the best part was the syrup...it was spicy and sweet and perfect! My friend tried the country fried steak with sausage gravy and biscuits. It was delicious! It was classic in every way...white gravy, but tender steak, nice biscuits. My other friend tried the steak tip sandwich. The blue pig sauce on it was delicious (very savory), and the peppers and onions were chopped into small pieces...but the steak tips were not cut up...which made it difficult to bite through the steak tips. I would have cut up the steak tips and put them back into the sandwich...but it wasn't my sandwich. The sandwich came with spiced curly fries. The fries were VERY good. The service was friendly and fast. We will definitely go back.

Our waitress was friendly and the food was really good. We opted for the unwrapped egg roll bowl (yum) - I would definitely get this again, and the salmon with quinoa and power greens (also very good). It was mid-day and I had to go back to work so we didn't get drinks but there were lots of (local) options. The only reason I'm giving 4 vs 5 stars is that we had to wait a while for our food and then the tab. The restaurant was quite busy but not ridiculously so. We weren't in a tremendous hurry, so it wasn't the end of the world, but, still... 4 stars is definitely a "would do a gain" vote.

Food was great but Gabby our server is what made me write this review!…read more She was so kind and attentive, she was very patient helping me try some of their beer before I decided on a margarita... I didn't eat much of my sandwich as the drink and salad filled me. She was genuinely concerned lol and sat next to me with a look of genuine concern "Is everything okay, tell me, I'll fix it for you" I've never had a server take my wants and needs so personal and it was Awesome! My salad came out with the wrong dressing and I wouldn't let her take it back. I was fine with what they gave me instead. When we left, she gave me a salad to go with the dressing i had asked for! She went above and beyond and makes you feel like you are her only customer! Give that Girl a Raise LOL

Their…read morebreakfast sandwiches are great & the Kitchen Sink smashed burger (tossed in their salt & vinegar rub) was as well. I live relatively close, so it just made sense to try it out a few times. The service was excellent, how-f***ing-ever, I've made 100% sure I didn't go on days/nights this place was slammed because I'm way too old for bar fights caused by people with poor emotional regulation. The bartenders at these quieter times were on point - quick & responsive - one even decided to go braless with a see-through shirt for the old grey hair dudes at the bar on a relatively quiet night. Very classy & thoughtful. The ambience is that of a barn. Legit. This place is so run down that if it was a car, cops wouldn't even want to pull it over. It's definitely one of those places you go to get insufferably drunk and wake up in the morning with some new bugs living in/on your crotch, maybe even a big one in your bed - but that's half the fun(?) if you're into that sorta thing. I'm not, but to each their own. On the off chance I go back, I'm wearing a full body MOP suit so I can leave almost as clean as I came in. Honestly - it's filthy, but I do recommend it for pool, food & drinks.

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.

It's a great location for big parties...the only strange thing about this location, it's huge with plenty of seating...however there isn't a lot of parking so if you had 12 people coming to meet for a work event...that would take up the parking area pretty quickly. I'm glad this location exists to get them more exposure and also to allow them to stock up on more of the limited release items. I do recommend this location.

This is how I want to know them. I like that it's off the beaten path, tucked away in some industrial park; the parking is like the wild west - there's no rules, just put your car somewhere that isn't in the way; and the interior of the brewery itself is waaaaaaaaay bigger than you think it's gonna be, and it's beautiful. It feels like you're inside a wood cabin in the middle of, well, the woods in Maine. Lots of seating options, cool merch, and the beers? Yeah. Okay. I get it. They're probably in my top three favorites in the state of Maine. I don't like IPA's, but dagnabbit if that Oh-J isn't delicious. It's like a juicy, alcoholic orange juice without the pulp or vitamin c. I'll also never say no the Samara Brown (subtly bitter like coffee left in the pot overnight), the Chaga Stout (earthy and roasty; but is it still an anti-inflammatory superfood when it's in beer?), or the Maple Sunday (which tastes like a pancake breakfast). Also, the Holy Donut collaboration was awesome - dark chocolate coconut donuts turned into a 10.5% ABV beer is a totally great idea. Even better? Pairing them WITH the actual donuts. For sure looking forward to releases like this in the future! I like that they have an outdoor space (and that there's room for food trucks to come up alongside it) and am excited to come back to this specific location.

I ordered burnt ends for take-out and upon opening the container noticed there were (literally) 4 pieces of meat sitting on top of a bed of fries. Confused, my husband questioned if we had received the correct item, and the cashier explained that they had started adding fries to the order because there was so little meat inside! So shady. If I wanted fries, I would order them. To charge $15+ for fries with 4 pieces of the meat that you're actually supposed to be selling is a scam and I'm going to discourage everyone who will listen from giving Smoked their business.
