Good food and friendly service. I went with the meat trio which was tasty. Not going to win prizes for brisket but good enough for a casual bite!

We had 8 people in our group and had a variety of food. Oysters, salad, wings, BBQ chicken, sausage, nachos, flatbread pizza, and pulled pork sandwiches. Everyone was happy with their food and the food portions were generous. Mac n cheese side is definitely worth the try and a hit at our table. We did not care for the baked beans because they were on the sweet side but that’s just our preference. I would definitely recommend you try this place if you are in the area.

Got the THE ELSMERE TORNADO SANDWICH: Chopped brisket, pulled pork, sausage, and Texas Red BBQ on a toasted pretzel roll topped with cole slaw $18 was amazing, pretzel bun was not heavy or dense but still pretzel flavor so yummy, pickled red onion, so pretty and delicious I forgot to take a picture I ate it so fast!

Love the building. Good bbq, got a 3 meat platter. Ribs are a dry rub. Service was good, and price ended up pretty reasonable.

Loved it! Amazing staff very mindful of what you need and if you are enjoying your food. I over hear them ask if a guy wasn’t enjoying his beer and offers to get him something else he might enjoy more. The staff is very dedicated and they match the food quality very well. I will miss it when I go back to Utah. Very good can’t say it enough.

My husband were leaving after visiting the Portland Head Lighthouse and park, and pulled into Elsmere on a whim. What luck! BBQ was amazing, service was great, and Maine beer to enjoy! Would recommend this in a heartbeat. He had the brisket, I had the tornado sandwich. Delicious!

Elsmere’s is a place my partner and I seek out regularly for our date night or when we just crave some really good BBQ. I have never once been disappointed by a meal. I highly recommend the pulled pork sandwich on a pretzel bun!

Great spot on the way from downtown to the iconic Portland Head Lighthouse! Enjoyed a beer on the patio with some amazing ribs. Wife defined it as devine. Was a great first meal in Maine. Glad the pup could join us on the patio. Drinks were good too! Great atmosphere as well, love the garage feel.

The barbecue is excellent and the portions are quite large. For lunch 3 of us split the 3 meat platter and it was quite filling. We did add a bowl of chili and an extra side but the combination of everything made for quite a filling meal for everyone.
