SST continues to be one of the BEST spots in Waterville! From the daily happy hours to their Sunday brunches! The food , service and prices are excellent! My son and husband think their Back Alley Wings are some of the hottest ,and BEST, in the state! I have also had 2 private parties downstairs ! The space is awesome and we highly recommend! Already planning another party for next year at SST! read more

One of my favorite places in Waterville. The menu is quite extensive with many many great choices. The food is absolutely great. For example, the onion soup is outstanding the calamari excellent. The burgers are away Sugar Sugar great, but the specialtyspecial items such as pot pie and other pubish style food is absolutely great and worth trying. The special drink menu was definitely worth checking out. The martinis are excellent. The beers seem to come out in frosted glasses, even in the winter. There is plenty of parking nearby. The venue is spacious and wide open with plenty of TVs. It was a great place to watch the Olympics. read more

A staple in the area. Service was great, bathroom "needs" work. Food was good, not awesome but good for the value. Believe was the owner that greeted us up by the bar and was very accommodating and offered up seating options right off, wry nice gentleman. Wait staff was awesome, she was top notch!! Would give 3.5 but no option. Would go back if/when in the area. read more

Had a group of 12 on a Saturday night to accommodate with separate checks before an 8 PM Opera House show and had made a 6 PM reservation a couple of weeks in advance. SST managers, waiting staff, and kitchen handled the matter beautifully and we were all delighted with our meals. Beyond that, were out well before the 8 PM showtime. SST immeasurably contributed to our having a fantastic evening. I would definitely repeat the reservation next time. Thank you so very much! read more

Delicious pub food. Generous portions. Spacious outdoor patio. Friendly fast staff. We had been getting take out for a year and finally had time to eat at the restaurant. We met a couple of local friends and it was a relaxing time, we didn't feel rushed at all. I loved the ginger plum wings a lot!!! I definitely would get them again. Crispy sweet and savory. Perfect! We also got the onion rings when we saw all of the other tables around us ordering and enjoying them. They did not disappoint. The beef chili was hearty and delicious and the perfect portion of corn bread on the side made it a great meal. I definitely want to come back for weekend breakfast sometime. read more

My husband's burger was ok. But not anything great. My daughter's Lebanese salad was terrible. Neither the hummus or tabouli had any flavor, the steak pieces were thick and tough. And the lettuce was in massive pieces. My Maui wowie chicken. Had no wow. The chicken was good but I can't decide if the rice was so undercooked that it was still crunchy or so over dry from sitting that it was dehydrated. And to top it off, we told the waitress I had a seafood allergy not to bring us fries if they were cooked in the same seafood My food came with fries that are fried in the same oil. They were really busy so I just told the waitress to bring me a separate plate and I would put the fries on a separate plate and just eat around it. She proceeded to bring a second plate and then just reached on my plate with her hand and started grabbing handfuls of fries off, didn't let me have a chance to slide them off myself with a knife. I will definitely not be coming back to this place. Oh, and there's a huge crack around the women's room bathroom door. I could see my daughter and granddaughter inside. read more

We came it with a group of 9 and our server was very accommodating and helped us move some tables together. The food was very good and fairly priced. I really enjoyed the fries here, thin and crispy! All of our food came out quickly after ordering and our glasses were always full, I will definitely be stopping here again. read more

Excellent food! Great sandwiches and fries. Service is great, friendly and fast. Nice live music that's not to loud, very enjoyable.

Beautiful decor inside and patio seating is available too! Our waitress was busy but always made it back to us. A+ service. I ordered the Ruben and my wife had the French dip. The Ruben was grilled to perfection with just the right amount of thousand island and sauerkraut. The au jus for the French dip was flavorful and not too salty like other places we've been to. We'll definitely be back read more

Hi Friends, Boogying down to Waterville to catch a show at the Opera House, I Bebopped over to SST for a pre show bite to eat. A well appointed room, with many classic tavern trappings, the place was hopping as one of the joints open on a Sunday night with a sold out show right within walking distance. I was greeted by a harried hostess, who nonetheless was upbeat and on point. I put my name on the waitlist and did that the bar would be alright as I was flying solo Well, the hostess, seeing the growing line of hungry couples behind me, took it upon herself to move the boss's meal from a bar seat, freeing it up for me The place has a lower level, which wasn't open on a Sunday night (sign at door had me thinking it's more of a private event space). I'm not sure if they were unaware of Elvis Costello show being a sellout or if they were already all hands on deck The good- I went with a Southwest avocado burger, which was perfectly cooked to my request and bursting full of flavor. Both the hostess and the bartender were on point, even though they were on the edge of the weeds. And for a crowded room, the sound level was not obsessive The bad- the joint did feel understaffed. The solo bartender could've had either a dedicated bar back or a service tender, as she was trying to serve her 10 or so stools while making the drink orders for the rest of the dining room. Because of the bartender being on verge of weeds, I didn't order an app nor did I more fully explore the menu and specials. And the dessert seemed be a purchased item rather than housemade, which at price point as well as quality of other food I saw come out from the kitchen, that was a let down Would I recommend SST? Absolutely! Will I try it out again when I'm in Waterville? Most definitely Would I go out of my way to dine there? No, I'd need to be in town, I wouldn't come off the highway to come 2 miles into downtown to eat here See y'all at the crossroads read more

Delicious food and friendly staff make this a perfect spot for a fun family dinner! Food was excellent.

Super awesome spot, food was fantastic, Cierra our server was excellent and she had excellent recommendations on the menu. She made a point of suggesting something on the menu that she thought I'd enjoy more than something that was more expensive, she clearly prioritizes her customers more than just making a sale. Really appreciated that. The live music on the evening we went was also a lovely time. We were right next to the musician and it wasn't ever too loud. Seems like a really great neighborhood spot, it was busy and for good reason. If we ever are back up to this part of Maine, we won't forget this spot. read more

This place exceeded my expectations in every way! Environment was booming and our bartender, Ella was fabulous. Amazing service and great food! read more

Love this tavern! Really great food, diverse menu, fun atmosphere and engaging staff. Think Cheers!

Service here was good overall. Great the first night I came, bartender was on point and attentive, kitchen staff was a little cold but they were trying to close up so I won't hold that against them. Service was a little less great on the second night but it was much busier and attentions were everywhere. It wasn't too loud for how busy it was so that was good but with rowdier crowds it could easily become overwhelming. Food was great the second night, items ordered are pictured in the review. First night was a limited menu and as I said right as they were closing up, but I ordered the deconstructed nachos and everything tasted like it was served out of a can. It was tortilla chips with a side of refried bean dip and melted cheese, side of lettuce, some pickled jalapeños, sliced black olives, sour cream and salsa. Not great. They do have a varied and extensive menu so I'm sure they have plenty of other winning dishes, and I am willing to come back and try again. read more

Food is alright. Just left after a drink because owner was on his phone sitting next to us at the bar with his speaker on full blast while he apparently yelling at his cable provider. It was a very unpleasant experience that instantly made us want to finish our drink and bounce. We left and went down the road to another restaurant. read more

Great place to just unwind. They have some great food and very pleasant staff. The live music is always a plus!

The local root beer was good. We had a rack of ribs and chicken pot pie and we were both pleased with our meals. The servers were very friendly and they have some nice historical art photos of the area. Right across from a pretty fancy hotel as well. read more

We met a couple of friends here for a meal before attending a concert nearby. A sign tells you to seat yourself, but they also accept reservations. We were lucky that a table reservation had just been cancelled before we arrived. They have a fairly good menu selections, though some of their specialty dishes cost a bit more than I tend to want to pay. My wife and I decided to share an order of nachos with all the fixings, but were presented with an oddity: apparently due to the kitchen making errors in what ingredients are wanted (for example, we didn't want the olives or jalapeño) they served the ingredients of the nachos separately and left us to assemble the order ourselves. The couple with us had a couple of issues with their orders. Our pleasant server worked to fix it for them. On a side note, the restaurant tries to be environmentally sound, with paper straws, biodegradable take-home boxes, and so on. We decided that we wouldn't mind giving the place another try, as long as we can avoid ordering meals we have to assemble ourselves. read more

Great environment, food, and service! We were visiting Maine with 13 friends and weren't sure where to eat. This was a great pick! read more

I genuinely do not understand how a restaurant so we'll known for slow service becomes a local staple. The food is OK. You are going to wait a while for it though. If you are there during the day for lunch you may wait anywhere from 30-60 minutes for a burger. It has happened to me on more than one occasion. Business lunch, just trying to catch a quick bite? Not here. The good. They can accommodate large parties fairly easily due to their spacing and layout. Please, just know, you need to give yourself extra time if you have plans after. read more

Good bar food, pretty fair prices, great waitstaff. Live music a plus, quick service. I had the beef tips. Good, and decent portion size done right. Side salad was really good and fries were tasty. read more

Great place with some good food. Stopped in late night to pick up some food and just missed the grill. The manager happened to be right there and saved the day. Whipped up a great lobster roll for me with some fries and wings. Extra star just for Jada being so amazing!!! This place had a great feel to it though. Was a band in the back playing music and the crowd was super into it. Place was a typical bar but did had TVs all around playing sports, every single staff I interacted with with over the top nice, EVERYONE!!! They truly make you feel welcomed there. Ok so the lobstah was not bad at all, I mean it's Maine, so I was looking for my brain to explode off the first bite so it was tough to begin with. Fries and wings were good. Drinks were nice but go with an easy drink to make in my book. Overall give it a try read more

Outstanding food with indoor/outdoor dining. When we arrived a band was playing. Service was slow and could be improved.

Waitress was friendly but good ends there. Incredibly bland food. Four of us ordered: Calamari bland and bad Onion rings bland and bad Lobster roll bland and bad Burger bland and over cooked Nachos bad in every way you can be. How do you mess up nachos? French onion soup delicious Hope the owner reads this an tastes the food their kitchen is sending out to people so they can adjust. We had run the iron man that day and were incredibly hungry. We left most of our food on the plates. So that tells you how bad it all was. read more

This tavern was right across from our hotel. Stopped in and it happened to be happy hour. Had a couple of cheap great drinks! The waitress was hilarious! Nice old school tavern. read more

Very nice lunch, sitting outside on a Sunny summer Sunday at the Silver Street Tavern. Can't believe this was our first time here after all these years, we will certainly not wait another decade to come back. A lot of variate guy on the menu, I chose the waiter recommended baked stuffed haddock. I love ordering baked stuffed haddock, as it can be so different from place to place. This had a sherry cream sauce and bread crumbs. Service was excellent, thanks! read more

my family enjoyed their lobster rolls but the stuffed haddock was terrible. it was baked with very little sauce, and it came out extremely dry. wouldn't return. service was good. read more

So we had a 6 top table and ordered around 6 appetizers. I ordered the ribeye as well as one other person. The meat had probably been killed three times and even the waiter said he knew it was overdone before he brought it out (so why bring it out). So I asked for a burger....which never came until we asked where it was while paying the check. So now I get to go home to a burger I can reheat....oh yummy. I even had to get up and get my own drink at the bar that had been sitting there for over 4 minutes ( one of the the other patrons applauded me). So now I get to drive 30 minutes and reheat a burger....awesome I can't wait to eat that reheated burger yum read more

yummers! i got bad tummy ache but still really good YUM yum yummers yoyo gogo yummertime when the food is tastyyy pizza and chicken, noodles and rice it's yummertime read more

First time here on a Sunday not realizing how busy this place is due to the brunch specials. Tony the bartender was quick and knowledgeable. While sitting at the bar waiting for our table. Enjoying Bloody Mary's, I noticed a man hustling cleaning up tables. I learned from our fantastic waitress, Courtney, that he was Charlie, the owner. Awesome example of leading your staff. We had French onion soup (fabulous), calamari (delicious). I had the French dip while my friend had the stuffed haddock. I totally recommend this establishment for all to enjoy. Make sure to ask for Courtney as your server, she is so enthusiastic! read more

It was a good decision to come here. We had a great meal. Our server was super nice, don't remember his name, but he wouldn't be hard to miss, he had lots of tats! (Including his face) I had the Tijuana turkey...yummy. Hubby had ribs, they were tender and tasty. For desert, we had a peanut better(?) cream pie with an Oreo crust.......DELICIOUS! Definitely worth a visit! read more

We have always been fans of SST. Today was not good. First we ordered a MaiTai. It was all orange juice. We ordered shrimp cocktail-- the cocktail sauce was marinara with a dallop of horseradish and Parmesan cheese. We also ordered a spinach and artichoke dip it was extremely bland. When the young lady delivered it she literally came with such force that all the chips on the plate ended up on the table. Definitely disappointed at the meal tonight... read more

Impressive menu with tons of variety. The venue is very large and the service is very nice. Our waitress, Elizabeth, was very friendly and took good care of us. Salads were nice and fresh. My recommendation is the crab-stuffed haddock. Amazing! This is one of few places in town that open until later in the evening. Patio sitting is also available. read more

Went to the restaurant yesterday for Mother's Day. Had a larger party. Service was slow but understandable given the day. The waitress did a decent job considering. Food was terrible. Two in the party had a burger. They advertise the burgers as 1/2 lb. Not even close despite the cooking process. Barely bigger than a McDonald's single. Three in the party had the Caribbean Jerk Chicken wrap. Supposed to have Caesar dressing and had none. You'd also think a sandwich advertised as Jerk chicken would have jerk spice. Nope. Finally one of the party order a pizza. Hard as a rock. Terrible experience and won't come back. Been there done that. read more

Great atmosphere, reasonable good food. Good with staff would recommend to anyone visiting Waterville.

My mouth was on fire after eating the ribs, despite absolutely zero indication in the menu that they had any spice to them. Not sure what they put in their sauce or rub, but it is WAY too heavy handed on the spice, I couldn't even eat them all. My wife's lobster Mac was fine and our server was pleasant and attentive. But stay away from the ribs if super spicy isn't your thing (it's definitely not mine). read more

Ew. Not good service or food. Dirty and yuck. Our waiter was very pleasant but other than that it was just overall not a good experience.
