Four college students. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions so far.

FL....if you take a day trip into Bangor you can hit up the Hollywood Slots for a bit and then head over to the Seadog Brewing Co.for lunch. Makes a nice break from drinking cheap NH booze all day back at the room in the Black Bear Inn.......I should know!

Breakfast: Johnny's (old town)

Lunch: Verve (orono)

Dinner: Margaritas (orono)

Drinks: Woodman's

You won't be sorry. Unless you don't like Mexican, then go to Woodmans instead of Margs for dinner.

generally speaking, the food at margaritas is terrible.

Have you tried the fish tacos? Yum!

To each his own, I guess. I really prefer Margaritas and hate Pepino's while some of my friends have opposite tastes. Of course, they are wrong.

I have not been to the Pat's in Orono (I think this was the original?), I have been to the Yarmouth and Sunday River locations though... fantasitic Pizza IMO. Kind of like simple, but awesome!

it's been my experience that none of the Pat's other franchises have pizza nearly as good as the original in Orono. But then again, I haven't eaten at any other location than Orono in years, so maybe that's changed. After all, old Pat isn't around anymore to add his secret ingredient in to the sauce as he stirred(ashes from his cigar)

It's the original pans from when they first opened, decades of caked on grease.

You would be correct. No other than the original Pats is great...the other Pats are imitations, but not good enuf.

Rules numbered 1, 2 and 3 young Stevie:

1) Never eat food at a place named after a drink.
2) Never eat any food at a restaurant other than their claim to fame...i.e. dont order a hamburger in an italian restaurant...duh
3) Never break rules 1 and 2.

You would be surprised how many people I've run into complaining about food at some joint because they've gone outside of their expertise and found out they shouldnt be cooking it. Order fish only in a fish house, pasta dishes in an italian joint, greek food in a greek restaurant, steaks in a steakhouse, and yes, hamburgers at McDonalds (yeach)

Pepino's rocks...at least it usta.....have their own green sauce for sale. Great for starting a woodfire, warming up da belly and giving the dos equis something to wash down.

Far as the game goes, Jackie sucks, BU sucks, and BC sucks.

Edit to #1: Unless you have had several of the referenced drinks first.

BTW, I second Steve's sentiment. Ate there once. Was very disappointed. I'm a snooty flan eater (what can I say, spent several years in Mexico and Iberia), and theirs was among the worst I have ever had.

Long time ago, shortly after opening, it actually used to be decent, although my choice of mexicali would always be Pepinos.....that s the problem with college communitys where the emphasis becomes drinking and getting chithoused...the food suffers eventually. That, my guess, is what likely happened to Margaritas. Betchya the Margaritas are dam good though. In any event, itz all ur fault for not asking me where to eat, eh?
