Water Street Tavern And Inn - Lubec

PSA: Call and make reservations if you’d like to eat here. We were greeted with, “Do you have reservations?” Tonight, all of their “two tops” were reserved. We asked if the bar needed reservations and she said sometimes, but not tonight. We did sit down but by this time felt the restaurant was doing us a favor by letting us sit. Just uncomfortable. We left. Food drinks: Never tried them. Wine list looked great.

The food here was fantastic and reasonable priced. Bill our server went above and beyond with his service. If your coming through town, you don’t want to miss the food here. Thank you Ralph

Water Street Tavern and Inn is the total package. The rooms are clean, comfortable and offer some amazing views! We stayed here many times before we purchased a home in Way Downeast! Now that we have a home in the area, we are regulars at the Tavern! We have NEVER had a bad meal or beverage here! Even better, if you are gluten free their fried scallops and fried haddock are both gluten free! There are also many other GF options on the menu beyond salad (which tends to be the only option at many establishments). Jim and Judy are amazing hosts and their staff (who return year after year) are some of the best wait staff we have ever encountered! The service is top notch. A piece of advice: Make a reservation! Rooms: The rooms are impeccably clean. If you are in a suite, Jim delivers coffee, muffins and yogurt to your room each morning. If you are in the standard rooms, the same is laid out in the common area. The muffins smell delightful, the coffee is delicious and the yogurt is too! The room rates are reasonable and an amazing value for your dollar! Seriously, you can't get better views anywhere else! Food drinks: If you are gluten free their fried scallops and fried haddock are both gluten free! There are also many other GF options on the menu beyond salad (which tends to be the only option at many establishments). We have literally NEVER had a complaint about the food!

I’ve never been treated more rudely by a business owner, than I have by this one…multiple times, over the course of multiple years. (Shame on me for giving multiple chances) It’s too bad, because the rest of the staff is fantastic! But rest assured, I’ll never darken the doors again…and neither will several others who have been treated the same way.

Owners don’t like locals and don’t want children in their establishment.
