Easy-going and laid-back staff. They were very friendly and helpful with any questions I or my group had. Food came out rather quick and was seasoned and cooked well. They had a good selection of beers both local and the standards.
The best.Awesome service “Eric.” best hamburger ever ????????????
For being a pub/tap room in a casino this was a nice place. It was nice and open, so you aren’t on top of each other. The seats were comfortable (at least at the bar) and there was a good view to see the TVs to watch sports and since I was there on a Sunday it was football day. Being from Seattle it was a bit strange being surrounded by Patriot fans (still can’t get over Super Bowl 49 – not really).
Service was friendly and really on top of things and I really never had to ask for things they were a head of the game.
The walls had large replicas of beer labels which added to the overall atmosphere. I did like the beer barrels over the entrance.
They do advertise $9 flights and have a beer of the day special. (The day I was there it was Honey brown for $4.99) They also have a monthly feature brewery.
Had a selection of local beers, feel they could have had a few more, but the Sebago Frye’s Leap IPA was a good IPA. It had a nice clean, slightly bitter finish without the citrus notes; like the original IPA’s.
Good selection of food on their menu. I did see a number of dishes come out and they looked tasty and the burger I had was good and juicy and cooked they was I asked.
I also had their clam chowder and it was tasty and the great thing was it had a thin roux, unlike what I normally have. It had a good clam to bacon mix and I would recommend it.
For a pub in a casino I would recommend it just to check out out and not even gamble.
We went on the 4th of July. A little gaming in the casino then a quick drink and bite to eat at Hops 99 prior to watching the fireworks. Waitress and hostess were very up beat. Waitress made several suggestions and a recommendation of a local brewery beer flight to go with our meal. Food service was quick and meals were good.
