Ledges Pub — Restaurant in Phippsburg

What a waste of time and money. The service was ok from a nice Jamaican lady. The blueberry margaritas came out first, it tasted like blueberry cough syrup so I was disgusted, definitely no love and not from Maine. Then the salad came out with the wrong dressing, nothing special. Then the lobster cakes and they were definitely frozen and horrible, fried ridiculousness, who goes to the coast of Maine where there is amazing fresh seafood to pay $22 for frozen tasteless horrible lobster cakes, what a pathetic joke. Then my girlfriend who doesn't like all seafood ordered chicken chimichurri, it wasn't chimichurri at all it was a Jamaican dish, I was in Jamaica a few months before so I could taste the all spice. The chicken was all fat and bone and a little meat, the meat was dry, not seasoned and a complete waste of money. When I asked the waitress she said it was chimichurri which showed she was clueless. Bland diced veggies are not chimichurri, it is parsley, garlic, oregano, olive oil, balsamic, plus seasoning. Disgusting and a waste of money. This place is a joke to Maine seafood and being on the ocean. You have been warned. But if you like to pay $100 for food with no love that costs them $10 to make them maybe this is the place for you. Anna's Waters Edge Restaurant is so much better. More rustic but great fresh seafood, isn't that what you are on the Maine coast for? I really hope this place turns it around. It has beautiful property on the water and it looks like it use to to be a really classy place so hopefully they learn and get back their love for Maine seafood and making customers happy. I'll never come back or recommend this place to others. When we walked to the bathroom there was a huge puddle on the carpet outside of the bathroom that smelled of sewage which made us not trust a place that can't clean up after themselves. Seems like this place is destined to go down hill and close the doors because they don't care at all. I hope they don't ruin this beautiful property with laziness to make their customers happy and offer the amazing seafood most people crave to eat.

You can read all of the businesses responses to the bad comments and they don't care. If you cared you would offer the customers to come back and give them free food for scamming them out of money to try to make it right. Empty comments of we take it seriously and will fix things doesn't fix the problem of customers wasting lots of money and time at this place. Definitely a joke and you don't care if you don't make it right to customers who were treated badly and were ripped off out of their hard earned money. Show you truly care about your customers by making it right or you...

We live in Maine and this is one of our favorite spots! We wanted to bring our 8 month old to a restaurant where we have shared many delicious meals and experiences. Sadly, we aren’t sure we will be back after the experience we had last night. We arrived at 6:15 and had a reservation. Got seated right away. It took about 7-10 minutes for our waiter to come with water and we weren’t asked what else we wanted to drink, but the waiter told us he would be back. It was another 7-10 mins before drinks were ordered along with the meals. It was at least 20-25 minutes after sitting down before we had placed an order. There was another table with a young child that had to take their meal to go because of the wait, another table that was seated 15 minutes after us got their meals before us, another table has left mid meal because their meat was not cooked right, and my husband and I debated for the first time ever if we get up and pay for our drinks (coke was flat) and just leave. I got up and went to find anyone to ask for an update on when the food was going to be ready because we were nearing an hour wait with no check in. The scallops were good, but with an 8 month old, and after an hour + wait for food, we wanted to just “hammer” the food at that point and head home. My husbands steak tips were not steak tips. They were another cut of meat cut into 4 pieces. The portions of the meat and potatoes was smaller than previous years. Meat was undercooked, but we said nothing.

We love it here and my husband literally snacked light today in anticipation for a beautiful experience and meal as we usually have at the Ledges. We are sad this won’t be in our rotation anymore. Still tipped the waiter, but whom is responsible for training? I think as we were leaving, I overheard staff explaining to a waiter that a couple had left without paying.

The restaurant was 40-60% capacity. Seemed to be well staffed, we are stumped. This is a dangerous spiral for the restaurant and if not corrected, valuable local business will disappear. This was a Wednesday night…what happens on the weekends?

This isn’t an excuse, but we felt that if we were on vacation at this resort and had all the time in the world, it wouldn’t be as bad- but we are locals who have to work tomorrow and didn’t want to spend an hour and 40 minutes in this restaurant. We still tipped well on the meal when the service or food didn’t deserve it. Worst $100 spent in a long time, and left feeling sad about...

We visited Ledges Pub for dinner in Aug 2023. We were a party of 6 and were seated right away. Our server was named Paul and was a delight. He had great recommendations for drinks, was very attentive and shared some fun stories about the resort where the restaurant is located.

We started out with some of the restaurant's cocktails including a Portuguese Manhattan, a Blueberry Margarita and my favorite the Summer Sunset which was fruity and the perfect vacation drink. My husband enjoyed the Margarita but i think it was a bit too sweet for him to have more than one. We shared some appetizers including the Cauliflower Ceviche, which was a bit spicy for me but enjoyed by the rest of the table and then some BBQ Pub chips which had a yummy blue cheese sauce drizzled over them.

For entrees our group had Fish n Chips (the fish was seasoned so well), Baked Scallops, Stuffed Mushroom, and the Spicy Mussels. My husband, who had ordered the Stuffed Mushroom, was very happy with his choice which came with rice and veggies. The only complaint was that the brussels sprouts which were part of multiple veggie side dishes were not cooked enough but all in all the food was really good.

We also brought some dessert to go including two orders of the Creme Brulee Cheesecake, one Chocolate Turtle Cake and 1 piece of Blueberry Pie. All deserts were gobbled up later in the evening without...
