104 Main Public House

Sept. 8, 2020 . . . Dinner plans changed last minute, so my wife and I tried the newest neighborhood pub/restaurant in Topsham, Maine, and we liked our culinary experience at 104 Main PH ! Easy to find, across the street ( rt. 201) from the Topsham Post Office .

The old Kobe Japanese restaurant transformed into a more modern looking pub restaurant, still with the curved "green house" glass side in place, facing main street. The new owner(s) added some modern looking high top tables inside, and parking lot picnic tables outside to expand summer time seating in the Covid-19 era.

The service is good ( thank you Chantel) and the food rates well for pub. The food menu is straightforward . . . I enjoyed the crispy bone-in chicken wings with 3 choices of sauce ( Maine blueberry sriracha, hot Frank's buffalo, and BBQ sauce . . . I'd add at least one sweet sauce maybe Thai sweet chili sauce). My wife complimented the freshness of her Salmon tacos ( she did mention abit more of the "main" ingredient would be preferred). Since I like testing pizza if the restaurant server gives high praise . . . I ordered up their 12 inch Margherita pizza with pepperoni and onions. We asked the server to hold off on our entrees, until we finished our appetizer . . . I guess in this Covid era the restaurant wants to "turn the table over" as quickly as possible. . . So my pizza sat for 5 minutes while I finished my wings. Oh well, I suffered through it ( joking, it's fine).

My pizza was very good! Thin crust, cooked quickly, fresh ingredients, classic presentation of mozzarella cheese, basil, olive oil, little drizzle of balsamic dressing.

Too full for dessert, maybe next time. Across from our table was a bar area. Several younger folks at the bar, a tv showing an empty baseball stadium, ah the new normal. All the staff was wearing masks. We stayed 10 feet from the bar area, didn't feel comfortable . . . Good that the tables were spread apart at least 6 feet.
As it gets colder, bring your coats for outside seating!

Great food from what I have tried so far!

Big surprise, Good food, good service, and good price

Very slow service- waiting > 45 minutes for a salad and fish sandwich.

Excellent Fish n Chips. They know what they are doing. Glutten free batter. We will be back when we come to the area. Owner and our waitress was awesome!!! Good luck on your future business.
