Gritty McDuff's

Chances are if you hear "brewpub" and "Portland" in the same sentence, your brain is going to bring to you Gritty McDuff's, where it's a pleasure gulping back pints of their ale, from the original pub style, to the Black Fly Stout, to the special seasonals like Vacationland summer ale. And they've got a great menu of hearty brewpub fare: shepherd's pie, grilled meatloaf sandwich, French onion soup, and more.
