Great casual place to eat or grab a drink. It’s right on the water so there’s plenty of views whether you’re just looking to catch up with an old friend or just unwind after a long day.

Food was good, seating is nice with a great view. Oysters were fantastic and a good beer selection. Clam chowder was not the best I have had for being on the coast of Maine.

For me, the laid-back, calm outside atmosphere reminds me why I love Maine. I had an amazing haddock sandwich overloaded with beautiful, flaky fish- I even took some home! Crispy fries, and excellent service, too. Great hidden gem! I will be back.

Last summer I went here and was treated like royalty as my previous review stated, which is why we went back. Now I realize we are in the middle of COVID-19 and things have changed, but the things that have changed have nothing to do with COVID. First of all we were greeted by a hostess who couldn’t even look us in the eyes. Plopped down at a bar table because we didn’t have reservations, and the bartender took our order, yet it didn’t matter because everyone else got their food before us.(Our wait for our food was one hour) Our drinks were never filled back up, within that hour of waiting, and we were thirsty…was thinking about ordering a real drink after my ginger ale, but the bartender NEVER came back. When I went up to pay the bill, he apologized and said that the place was just very busy. I should have taken pictures of the empty tables around him, but I did not. I will not go back. This place has changed for the worse. Let the rich folk pay their prices…and eat their cold clams, not me!

So, the atmosphere is fantastic. It’s right on the water and you definitely feel like your on vacation here. FYI, We live here year round. The service is also great. We had a very charming local wait on us, who was very attentive. The problem is the food. The menu is extremely limited. The portions are very small and the cost is high. If you are looking for a great Waterview experience, this isn’t it.

Beautiful setting at the head of the inlet. The food was worth the wait. The sunset was a bonus.

Mixed experience. No beer on tap, fish chowder had almost no fish (literally 2 quarter inch pieces in a large bowl), chowder also had way too much onion and was very milky like it was just made, mixed drink was good (Clammer’s Punch), fish and chip was good.

My family are long time residents of Maine. Decades in fact. I’ve been coming to visit them regularly over the years. They introduced me to the Slipway, and I instantly fell in love. Always been a pleasure to sit outside and enjoy the delicious food and drinks. That is with the exception of this past Saturday. We arrived a little after noon and saw the waiter opening umbrellas. He said hello, yelled inside that a four top had arrived and then gave us instructions on what two tables we were allowed to sit at. (The entire pier was open)

After he came back out, my aunt who has lived in Maine for maybe over 40 years asked him politely if we could sit out on the pier. (What’s the point of going to the Slipway and not sit outside?). His response was insanely rude. “No” was basically the answer. He apparently gave us the instructions in the first place. Then he proceeded to insult my aunt with a dig at her sunglasses.

Suffice to say we ended up leaving and heading to our other favorite restaurant in Rockland. But considering we were nothing but polite, it was absolutely shocking.

Slipway, I would love to talk to you about this since your waiter has truly offended and upset your biggest fans.
