The Little Brick Pub — Restaurant in Mechanic Falls

I’m going to be critical because I also own a pub and the only way to get better is to know the experience your customers are having. I stopped in with my wife and we ordered fries, the meatball appetizer and a couple of pizzas. The meatballs were a little bland and they kind of fell apart when eating them. The sauce was nice but lacked some nice seasoning. Not terrible, but I’d look at binding the meatballs together more, and adding some more seasoning. Fries were good. For the pizza, the crust is really nice, but the oven is too hot. I’d try lowering the heat 25-50 degrees, and cooking about 4 minutes longer. The crust doesn’t fully cook at the current time and temperature. Make sure when putting the toppings on, they’re perfectly spread around the pizza, not all in the middle - this could be just the mistake of an untrained pizza maker. You want to make sure the sauce, cheese, and toppings are perfectly spread evenly, and right to the edge. And I would lighten up on the cheese. 4 oz on a 10” pizza is enough. Many pizza makers over power the pizza with cheese - it takes away from the sauce and crust.

I do recommend this charming pub as it has great history. Give it a try and make sure you tell the owner anything you think could have been better FOR YOU. But do give it a try. The Irish Red...

Strict capacity limitations on this popular, intimate family pub have resulted in a slightly longer-than-normal wait. BUT! Order ahead and arrive early to enjoy a drink with friends and neighbors. The atmosphere under the tent, and even in the line, feels uplifting... like a happy celebration to be doing something "normal". 100% of our "dine-in" experiences saw friends and strangers sharing tables and chairs to better accommodate each other while respecting social distance protocol.

Owners Bobbi and Tim, their staff, and customers, are friendly and upbeat, staying positive in this uncertain time of pandemic. The quality of food and service can't be beat. Our family orders every Thursday night, and my only "complaint" was the salad was too big to finish in...

My husband and I loved our visit to The Little Brick Pub! As new residents to Maine (not knowing many people), we were blown away by how welcoming and helpful the owners were—they made us feel right at home and even shared great local tips. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and you can tell they truly care about their guests. We tried the June special pizza (Strawberry Balsamic Chicken—so good!) and the peanut butter frosting cake, which was absolutely delicious. The food, the hospitality, and the overall vibe were all top notch. Highly recommend stopping by—and if the owners are around, definitely take a moment to chat with them....
