We ate on the deck overlooking the water. The food was outstanding and the view was spectacular. Vacationing in the area next year and will be definitely stopping by again. I highly recommend it.
What a fun place to enjoy delicious seafood
with a one of a kind atmosphere!
The lobster roll was PACKED with meat from tail to claws. They do put lettuce on the roll and it’s your choice of butter or Mayo on the side. The buck a shuck oysters were delicious, my 10 year old tried her first ever oyster and is hooked. We danced, enjoyed the company of friends, ate and drank, and enjoyed the sounds and sights of the water.
We also ordered: quesadillas and fish and chips. Everything was delicious! Damariscotta is the perfect little town and Schooners Landing is a great way to experience it.
Great vibe! Must go if you like outdoor venues to see music and eat and drink. Right on the water. Beautiful. Band was awesome and there's a small dance stage too! Friendly staff. The food was pretty good too. Got chicken nachos and they forgot to put the chicken on them and to bring us our sides but they quickly rectified it and brought us a whole new plate of nachos! No questions- all with a smile.
Recommend!
Solid food, pretty good service. They were busy but maybe could use a few more employees. Lobster roll was good but I wish they would add the mayo on the roll mixed in for you. Came on the side and it was hard to put on the roll. Drinks were good and had a nice view and live music.
I had the Shore Dinner (for one) and it was everything I had hoped for!! I wasn’t a fan of the red peppers in the potato salad but it was good. The coleslaw and clam chowder were delicious; the chowder’s potatoes and clams were fresh and melted in my mouth. The lobster needs no introduction. 🤣
Had the broiled haddock with drinks while listening to the live band. Awesome atmosphere and great food after a day of adventure. Potato salad also gets excellent review!
This has been such a great place to go for such a long time. On a good day, it is a bit of heaven, why you come to Maine. Sit on the water, have some good food and drink, some good music, people and great vibes. Lobstah roll and the sliders were great. Chowdah good too.
Fast and easy place to grab a bite to eat. Set up for tourists to the area… by the water. Food was good, not great but good.
When you sit outside you order your food at the bar and they bring it out to you. Have to go back to the bar to get additional drinks.
The clam/cod chowder was thin but good. Lobster rolls were good but have had better.
Good place for a quick easy bite to eat.
Good food and fantastic oysters, terrific location. The service is basically order and pay upfront at the register and then a runner drops the food off. I'm not sure if it works this way inside the restaurant as well because we were sitting on an outdoor deck. The server brought our food quickly, but then never came back. Everyone else got a hot, tasty meal, but I ordered nachos, and unfortunately they were stone cold with congealed cheese. I think they must have been ready way before the other dinners were. Its a fun and busy atmosphere, but once the music started it was a bit loud.
Great place for a casual meal. Ordering is all at the bar, not really a proper sit down restaurant, but the bartender was very personable and friendly and food is brought to your table. Enjoyed local beer and delicious fried seafood, cocktail was decent. Recommend the sliders and the fried haddock. Seating available both inside and outside, but we enjoyed sitting outside right on the water and watching the tide change.
Wasn't sure what to expect when we asked our local friends how the food was and they said, "it's gotten better" but our meals were delicious. We went for seafood by the water close by the campground and the evening provided the perfect backdrop. I had the fried clam plate because I hadn't had them in years. They were whole belly and tender. My husband thought a little too tender cause the breading could've been crispier. He had the fish and chips and the fish was in small pieces which I really liked for the ratio of batter to fish! The best thing though was the clam chowder. I thought it was the best I ever had but it has to do with your preference. It was a thin creamy broth that was soooooo flavorful. The clams were not chewy, and tons of potatoes. Yeah, the service thing is weird to have to order up at the bar but the food came fast and hot. I would go back.
