Stopped in because a concert we went to at an outside. Venue hit was boring rain The fish tacos and blue burger, and an appetizer of stuffed mushrooms. It was really good our service excellent I would say I love my fish tacos, but they needed something nice to me. The flavor was spicy that fell a little flat with the fish was cooked really well. My husband loved the blue burger and said his fries were excellent. We also really loved the stuffed mushrooms, which are stuffed with a spinach and artichoke dip with some crunchy bacon on top. The mushrooms are large, so it's a very filling appetizer. Have a great time watching the Red Sox and the folks that are here and drinking our great locals I recommend this restaurant definitely worth stopping in read more

The wings are some of the best in the area make sure you order the Mule sauce. nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Great service, quality of the food was high and drinks were well made! The pizza, wings and roast beef sandwich were great!

The best Reuben sandwich I've ever had with friendly service! It's a sports bar, so there's no chance you will miss your favorite team playing. read more

The food was delicious and although it was busy, the bartender did a great job keeping up with all the orders. Allie is amazing

I found this place while visiting my youngest who is living in the area. We went for lunch. The outside isnt much and if we hadnt been looking for it, we would've missed it. It was pretty hopping inside and we were welcomed right away. The inside is really clean and bright with sports decor. Lv Raiders curtains, stadium photos on the wall. It was a comfortable place, even family friendly with kids around. There was 1 server/bartender for the whole place and probably 1 cook, too. But she was happy and friendly and got things done. The poutine was really good. The fries are fresh cut and delicious. We both got burgers, which were terrible. They are thin, made with local beef. All well done and a bit bland, but did the trick. 9 All the ingredients are fresh and local. I'd go back for more poutine and try something besides a burger next time. read more

Great food, fun time really cold beer great place to stop after hiking on the nearby, hiking trail. Wings are always rocksolid highly recommended. read more

Came for the fish and chips, stayed for the Gus's special. One waitress handled the place, if you're from Maine, you know. If you ain't, then you better go! read more

Great place to meet up with friends and have some good food good drinks and service is excellent Outside seating is a plus read more

Great food! Great drinks! Great staff! Food far surpasses what I expected for "bar food". Staff was so friendly and made great drinks.

I love this place! I'd just moved here, and was a little hesitant to try it, as it seemed like a locals-only kind of spot and we were new. I was pleasantly surprised! Our server was so warm and welcoming, and it was very cozy in there. This is a great bar for coming to watch a game and grab a beer. It does tend to get a bit crowded on the weekend, and they don't have a whole lot of servers, so it might take a while to order and get food. We've never minded, though. It's never been so long that it's a problem. Also, bonus: they have a deck. For food, I would highly recommend the wings. They're grilled to perfection, and there's just the right amount of char. I've always been a fried wings person (and still am), but the Mule has convinced me grilled wings are good too! I always get the garlic parmesean, but they have lots of varieties to choose from. read more

Loved our experience here! The service was super friendly, and the fries were perfect! The wings are a bit pricey, but the burgers and fries were priced right. We will be back for sure. read more

The Thirsty Mule - a burger and french fries - Sports Bars Near Me - Oakland, Maine

The food was very tasty. The service was fantastic and the atmosphere was fun. Definitely worth a visit.

I give it 1 Star for the service, the wait staff is very good. As for the food, you pay allot for small portions. We got a Burger $9.99 fries are extra, Roast Beef sandwich $9.99 fries are extra and a side of Chicken Fingers $12.49, 4 fingers. The Burger was about 1/8 of an inch thick and the Roast beef was about half of what I would get at Winthrop Roast beef for $8:00. I later discovered the online menu has a size option, that was not the case in the restaurant. Buyer beware read more

Tried them for the first time and not impressed. Take out order First one of our meals was missing. The buns were undercooked on both hamburger and roast beef. It was like eating dough! The salad was on a couple of handfuls of iceberg lettuce with some dried fruit throw not worth the price. Only good item was burgers were juicy. Would not go there again. read more

Rave reviews for their fish & chips. Eaten there a couple of times. Last visit a big bummer: drunken woman at a table wouldn't stop screaming laughing at full volume and then as I was eating my fish & chips I suddenly was overwhelmed with nausea & had to run outside to puke over railing. No idea what happened. But it was a drag. read more

Amazing wings and burgers, great beer selection. Staff was friendly and the service was excellent. Felt right at home here. The bartenders dog Gus was the absolute highlight of my visit!! Such a GOOD BOY!! read more

Awesome food, great service and cold drafts. Try the wings, mule sauce. Seafood chowder was great

OMG super friendly spot for drinks and pub grub! Try the peanut butter Ding dong burger w/ homemade fries! Soo good! The Irish nachos are out of this world! Definitely not your Grandmas nachos! Their pizzas are awesome! Generous portions, friendly staff! Can't say enough good things about this place! It's a small pub with a Huge tasty unique pub fare! You won't leave thirsty or hungry! read more

Best grilled pizza I've had. Buffalo chicken with "mule" sauce. People are nice. Great food.

We stopped in for lunch. What a can I say other than it was a delicious fun time. The food was outstanding. I had a steak sandwich and fries, not frozen but fresh French fries, the only as good as the food was our waitress. It's obvious she loves her job, and she's darn good at it. Thanks Janasta for a lovely experience. read more

We randomly found this spot while traveling from Portland to Bar Harbour area. It didn't have any recent reviews so I figured I'd drop them one. Atmosphere is a home town sports bar with good pub food. The server was super friendly and recommended a mix of their two sauces - mule sauce and garlic parm sauce. It was a really good combo for a wing sauce. The wings themselves were also really good. They were meaty and grilled so you actually got to enjoy the chicken and not just breading. We would've enjoyed a larger beer selection but don't fault them for not going overboard with craft selections. It wasn't really the vibe. Overall good spot for tasty bar food. Good service. read more

This is a small quaint place! I'd say it's definitely more of a bar than a restaurant though. The menu looks and sounds fancy, but it's still pretty standard cheap pub grub. It's a great place to have a few drinks, and visit with friends! Small enough to make new friends too. I'd say it's an excellent place to watch the big game, or chill after work. read more

Stopped here on a road trip and I'm glad I did. Food was phenomenal and the staff was fun to talk to.

Great food! My favorite here is the Reuben. Most things on the menu are homemade. Good atmosphere. read more

The Thirsty Mule - This is the most amazing reuben I have ever tasted. Love, love love!! - Sports Bars Near Me - Oakland, Maine

I give the atmosphere a solid C. Tables smeary, music too loud, zero decor. We chose to eat outside on the deck because the servers were not wearing masks. The food was surprisingly delicious. Our party tried the fish tacos, the fish and chips, and the buffalo chicken mac & cheese. All were tasty! Portions could have been a tad more generous, but no one left hungry. The service was friendly, despite the initial weirdness of being stared at when we first entered. Because of the mask wars, I'll get take-out next time. read more

Mule sauce was solid! On fries, roast beef and like to try it on the wings next time up

Food was good had the fra diablo pizza which was very spicy sauce (hunts the name) and the bartender was very funny and entertaining. Fun place to hang out and a Raiders bar so for all the patriot haters I would go hang out at this place. read more

Food was great but service was terrible. We were saying goodbye to some friends so we had a large party with most of us getting hamburgers. Took two hours to get served. The waitress said it was a small kitchen, how big of a kitchen do you need to make hamburgers? The food was served to four people at a time which meant by the time the last person was served, most of us were done eating. The burgers were great, maybe I will try take out. read more

Burgers are pretty good but they need a sturdier bun fries were good and the beer was good prices were normal I would go back again

Surprisingly good! In and around Augusta it can be hard to find good food, especially in the winter when many seasonal places close. However we had a pleasant experience here! The decor is very cozy but not dated and everything was very clean. The thai fish sandwich was very flavorful and one of the best meals I've had in the area. It was nice to have something a little different than all same options offered at every other local restaurant. Our server was also very friendly, and I enjoyed having Gus the dog greet us at the door and being featured in the names of some of the menu items. read more

I had got a burger from here one time and it was soo increadibly greasy the bun was soaked in it and it dripped off the burger into the plate. I complained to the waitress who just looked at me and said "Oh, ok". I never got an apology or anything. I paid the full price for my meal and I will never go back there again. read more

Good pub food. Dad had the wings and said they were good but too hot to enjoy...so think twice about the mule kick wings. Mom had the same problem with the buffalo chicken mac & cheese; too hot to enjoy. I was happy with the heat level on my buffalo chicken pizza and it was one of the best I've had. Neat and clean. Only recommendation is that the server be better at describing the menu (she couldn't explain mule kick wings and definitely undersold the heat level if dad couldn't enjoy them). read more

Unexpectedly nice, given the fact that it looks very unassuming from the outside. Sports bar with 5 TVs, two large screen. BBQ brisket was pretty good, could taste the smoke. Rolls are made on premises. read more

I am so thrilled with yelp. Drove by this restaurants many times thinking it looks so plain, can it really be that good. Well tried it and now it's our favorite. The wings are grilled and fantastic. The flavored are all great. My husband loves the Thai fish sandwich with haddock. Fries are fresh cut, every single item we have had we loved. I must also say it's the cleanest restaurant around. read more

Definitely would not recommend if you actually want to get what you order, ordered a hamburger basket we didn't get any fries when we mentioned it to the arrogant owner he said you didn't order fries, a burger BASKET always has fries, horrible experience ! read more
