We made an unplanned stop in Portland and looked for a good restaurant. We chose The King's Head based upon its menu and many beers on tap. Score! We ordered lamb Shepherds Pie and Fish and Chips. The shepherds pie was delicious, and the fish and chips were excellent --a nice, light breading over flaky fresh fish. With a bit of help from a knowledgeable server, we found a local beer that complimented the food perfectly. Kudos!
Incredible variety of beers on tap, excellent and knowledgeable service and some amazing food in a low-key spot. Would definitely recommend.
Seriously such an amazing place! We were greeted by the bartender and other staff when we walked in. We sat at the bar and order 2 draft beverages both very delicious(cider and sour). We ordered cup of stew and the large fish and chips to split. The fish has a light airy crisp batter on the outside with juicy fish inside, and the fries were so fresh! The soup of the day was Beef Stew. This soup was a perfect join to our meal as it was light ,but packed with flavor. Definitely a must go to if you don’t want to worry about bad food or service!
Food and service were great. You can get a beer anywhere but they had a decent selection of Maine beers. Stopped in only to grab a beer but ended up ordering food. Fish and chips were great. The hand cut fries were the best part.
Quaint little pub on the Portland waterfront. Top notch beer selection and friendly staff. Would have loved a few more small plate selections but overall a great experience.
This is a great little pub with awesome food and good drinks and impeccable service. Our server was so nice and on top of everything, she made excellent recommendations and was there when you needed her and gave you time when you needed it. The fish and chips was fantastic and also tremendous! My mother got a bowl of fish chowder as the soup of the day, it was amazing and I swear this bowl was the size of a helmet and like 2/3 full (tremendous portion)!! We will definitely be back to this gem.
Came in later on a Sunday evening and was happy to enjoy a few quality brews and maybe the best chips (fries) during the stay in Portland! Service was nice and the outdoor seating is well positioned next to the docks to look at all the fishing/lobster boats. Inside has a cool cavernous atmosphere and some mystique on the walls. Great place to start a trip 👍🏼
Only stopped by for drinks on a Saturday night. It's a nice little spot and the server was very nice.
Drinks are affordable and right by the water. Good spot to stop by.
Wish they had a little more seating is all.
Lively atmosphere with a great selection of brews. Fellow vegetarians, recommend trying the beyond impossible burger here. Didn't expect to see it on the menu. Pleasantly surprised.
We arrived and the place looked closed. However, it /was/ open and we're glad. Not only did they have a great selection of craft brews, they served excellent cocktails.

I was in the mood for a barleywine, and the knowledgeable bartender steered me to the Norway Dubbel, which stood in nicely. Not as boozy, but the malt backbone was so tasty.

My wife started with a Manhatten and continued with a Bulleitvardier cocktail. Both were excellent.

Along the way, we enjoyed the fried pickle chips. They stand up to the best we've had in Texas. Delicious, hot, and crunchy. Loved them.
.
If we lived in the area, we'd be patrons. Nuff said?
