    Nice atmosphere...only reason why 4 star instead of 5 is...no staff was around when we arrived and it said wait to be seated. UHHH, we waited....uhhhh...ok yeah HELLO here we are. Not bad. A basic breakfast. I had a BYO omelet. So did hubby. the two waitresses we had didn't know what to make of us.Hubby kept them laughing. One was a new girl and her co-worker, well, she, the co-worker and hubby had a common love for scooters. So the conversation was all about scooters and they still scooted along to get breakfast for us and we all laughed. We got there early, only a few tables full,but I have walked in to take a look before and the tables are pretty full. OH and they know how to toast toast! Not warm bread...not charcoal, just right!!!

    Went on my own for lunch because I've had good previous experiences here. This one was a bit of a let-down, however. The bartender had zero personality, forgot my only request of ketchup after my burger arrived, didn't ask how anything was. Chicken tenders appetiser wasn't worth the $10 price tag. Developed a numbing sensation in the roof of my mouth after eating the burger, something I've never experienced before. Not eager to return, but probably will on our next visit to the MSMT, whenever that might be.

    Breakfast review only. Stayed the night here for a wedding. Crab Cake Benedict $18: Crab cakes were amazing, homefries were eh, the "butter" on the toast tasted like oil, eggs were overcooked and not runny at all. My sister got the Western Omelette which had no cheese... and randomly came with mushrooms. We think they got the order mixed up but didn't really say anything. My mother and sister's BF loved their eggs and ate it all. Nothing too special on the breakfast menu that you won't find at a diner but everything was reasonably priced. 3 stars because it wasn't anything too spectacular - typical hotel breakfast. Service was accommodating and super friendly!

    We live a couple of towns south of Brunswick and visit often. The Brunswick Tavern is very handy for us in the summer when we come up for the Maine State Music Theater. We usually plan on having an early lunch and catch a matinee performance, the food is always good but the staff is lacking in attentiveness. We've been there maybe a dozen times and I would say that 90% of the time we are left waiting at the door even if the restaurant is only half full before someone comes to seat us. After we're seated it takes quite awhile for someone to come back and take our order, the orders are alway delivered quickly so nothing is cold. But like I said the food is good so we always plan for the slowness of the staff. When I say the food is good it is, it's just not outstanding. Every thing is a couple of dollars more than it should be, I guess it's because the decor is nice and the building is new. We keep coming because it is just across the street from Bowdoin College and the theater. This place could be a great dining destination with a properly trained staff and a more inspired chef. Don't bother eating breakfast there are dives and diners in town that do a better job for a fraction of the cost.

    My wife and I have had a room here for a week and a half. So we've had numerous breakfast's and occasional dinners. The food and service have been good and worth a try even if you are not staying in a room.

    Met old friends for brunch. Sat outside on a gorgeous fall day. If that were my entire review - 5 stars. But then the food came. This is institutional food at best. Based on their website (photos) I hoped for better. I had the regular Benedict. I asked for "eggs medium". They were hard. They were also covered in a shell like bright yellow substance that was not hollandaise made fresh. It resembled the dip coating on a soft serve at DQ. I added the $7 fresh fruit cup to my order and received a 3 inch round little tall ramekin with a bit of melon and a few blueberries. DO NOT get the fruit cup. My wife had a chx salad croissant which she said was good. I would not go back again and given all the good food in Brunswick, would go elsewhere to eat if staying at this hotel.

    Had Sunday brunch here. Setting is somewhat dark, off hotel lobby, like a bar. Decent menu selection, and fare was adequate, but nothing to write home about. Given the excellent food available in town, this only gets 3 stars.

    The atmosphere and live music was superb on the Monday night I dined there. I ordered the mussels in coconut curry sauce that is quickly becoming a favorite of mine. I have to say I have ordered this dish several times in recent history and this order was really not that special. The mussels were fine but the sauce was rather uninspired and the 2 small crusts of bread that arrived with it were nearly rock hard. I ordered for my main the braised short rib. It was very good and the vegetables were also quite good. I was mostly pleased so I ordered the strawberry shortcake that was a house specialty and coffee. The cake was like the earlier crusts of bread. Like "Hard Tack" that sailors ate on transatlantic voyages. I looked out at some of the older patrons of the restaurant and wondered how they could cope. Well, despite excellent service up to this point getting another excellent cup of coffee proved quite difficult. I sat there with my check and credit card and waited quite q while. When the waitress finally came I gave her my card and asked that another coffee be poured. I told her I was going to the restroom. I returned to a bussed table and no coffee or even my credit card back. It got worked out and I don't want to dwell. Service was otherwise fine. The stale bread and shortcake brought this down to a 3. The otherwise talented the chef should rethink the mussels, they could be way better and ditch the stale breads.

    It was an ok experience. The food wasn't amazing but it was definitely decent.. Customer service is awkward; like another reviewer said, there is no one there to greet you, so you sort of have to walk through this long hotel and then seat yourself. Found it hard to get a refill since the servers were on the other side of the room.

    I really liked bring outside and the homemade chips are wonderful. I also know from past experience that the mix drinks change and they keep a lot of local brews on tap. I do find things take a while to get to you and I think the food is over prices for its quality and lack of local fare.

    I recently had dinner at the tavern, mainly because I was staying at the Inn and also because I noticed they had many vegetarian selections on their menu. The food was very good. I had the portabella sandwich and I opted for an Allegash white beer which was a delicious accompaniment. They call it a "tavern", but it definitely has an upscale feel to it, yet it is casual and the prices are reasonable. A perfect combination in my book. The atmosphere is very nice and there was a very good jazz trio which also added to an all around delightful evening. The crowd was a nice mix of locals and people staying at the Inn and our server Laurel was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful with making recommendations. We also had breakfast, which was very delicious. I had a BYO omelet that came with home fries and really great whole wheat toast. I would definitely recommend the tavern and I look forward to returning on my next visit to Maine.

    The epitome of casual fine dining. The charcuterie plate is a revelation of house made pâté. The local mussels are handled with delicate care and offered in a light and innovative curry sauce. The fish n chips features local hake in a crisp beer batter. Local beers on tap. Lunch prices reasonable for high quality of food. The waitresses have the trademark Maine charm.
