Novare Res Bier Cafe, Portland, Maine, Grill Restaurant Details

Food:

A usually crowded place with a pretty good beer selection. Nice outdoor patio with cornhole setup.

Food:

The overwhelming stench of BO and arrogance from the hipster staff ruins the large beer selection. Save your money and go somewhere...anywhere else in town.

Food:

Selection to satisfy virtually anyone. Equally like the outdoor seating and the snug indoor cellar-like atmosphere.

Food:

Whenever a bar uses the word "Bier" and refers to themselves as a "Cafe," you're already pretty confident what you're getting yourself into. Great atmosphere, similar to a european bunker-style underground bar. I am fairly confident they have more "biers" on their menu than there are words in the english dictionary, and I don't believe you could pay those bartenders enough for the memorization they do of all of them. If you are ready to spend $9 for a beer, you might as well go to Novare where you can try a 10 Year Scotch Barrel Infused Southeast Belgian Cream Oatmeal Triple IPA Stout Wheat Ale... or any other complex beer from another continent that the bartender can talk your ear off about.

Food:

This is one of my favorite spots in Portland. Tucked away in an alley about a block from the Old Port, this place has a large outdoor beer garden as well as a sizable inside bar. They focus on offering a large selection of great beer from around the world. They have a large rotating selection on tap and also offer numerous varieties in bottles. Very laid back atmosphere with bartenders that love and know beer.

This is a must stop if you are in Portland.
