Our tour group stopped here on a Thursday night. Let me first say that feeding lobster to several groups of 50 each would be tough so I understand part of what Iâm about to say. The staff members were very friendly and well organized to handle groups. Great job. Now the food. I ate lobster in several places while in Maine. Here the lobster was the most âchewyâ of any place we ate. Lots of reasons might work here but just saying not the best lobster I had. Neat atmosphere. Get a picture of the roof when you stop.

We really enjoyed our meal but the service was really slow. I think they need more staff. I'm never happy when I wait 20 mins, for the check.

We stood in their tiny little hallway for over 30 minutes with about 15 strangers and not one of us got seated. There was no hostess to be found. They were not busy. There were many empty tables both inside and outside. Nobody was there to even take any of our names. We left. So did some of the others.

I've been to Ireland three times and visited at least a hundred pubs (no exaggeration), and Byrnes could be found anywhere in Ireland. They're one of the few Irish pubs in New England that carry Murphy's Irish Stout. Their onion soup (just like French, except with blue cheese topping along with the cheddar) is really good. Nice ambiance -- lots of brick, dark wood, and all kinds of interesting decor. Reasonable prices, friendly and funny bartender. A place to revisit on the next trip to Bath.

Neat and clean place, lovely lanterns above the bar, but a very "crunchy granola" type place. All the food is excellent and interesting, but you have to hunt quite a bit to find what I guess I would term guy food. No lobster mac and cheese here. Sort of the far opposite of a place that might serve a cheeseburger, altho they do offer one. Worst to me, and I am a hi-fi nut and lover of classical music, is the very high noise level. There are no inherent noise absorbing surfaces such as wall coverings. They have made token efforts to lower the sound - they have installed a few wall absorbers, but no ceiling tiles that I could see and no under-the-table or under-the-chair absorbers. The high noise level goes with the generally sparse and spartan decor. It is a considered decision, and you may love it, but it does not make for cozy dining or easy conversation. But hey, it was busy and it has been there for some three years, so it is clearly doing something right for its clientele, and kudos for that!

We came here at the recommendation of the the lady at the visitors bureau. There is parking behind the restaurant. It was in the middle of shops along downtown. My husband had a burger for lunch and I had the seafood salad. It had crab, shrimp as well as lobster. It was delicious. We enjoyed browsing the area after lunch.

Been driving by for years, should have stopped in sooner. Cozy, easy, informal and very friendly atmosphere. Order at the counter and pour yourself some coffee. I enjoyed the Western Scramble Special. Real home fries from small local potatoes. Iâll be back.

Had their half-chicken with a side of barbecued beans and their grilled jalapeno corn bread. The chicken was moist and perfect, and the beans were really good. I don't care for corn bread (it's usually too dry and flavorless), but theirs has an excellent taste, and the fact that it's grilled only adds to it. There's only one barbecue sauce on the table, compared to the half-dozen or so that other barbecue joints offer, but theirs is so good that you don't need anything else. The raspberry magarita was also great. Wonderful service, reasonable prices, great blues music streaming, nice ambiance. Wish we had one of these in Saco/Scarborough!

I was met at the front door by two smiling waitresses and sat down to have a simple but excellent grilled cheese sandwich with their homemade coleslaw....I also had a taste of a friends blackened Haddock wrap, which was scrumptuous! They have a wide selection of beverages and wonderful baked goods that you can take to go, if your full...I tried the Lemon Cake and would go back just for that. The Coffee was fesh and hot, perfect after a rain. If you are looking for your meal done in 5-10 minutes then go to a fast food place, the foods great and worth the wait! STOP and EAT! LOVE THE RELAXING ATMOSPHERE!!!!!
