This is an amazing bar! Ashley is simply the best — super friendly and welcoming. If you’re nearby, you absolutely need to stop by. The staff here are great, very kind and attentive. I ordered a beer and baked fish — everything was delicious. The place has real character and history. Old signs and vintage decor give it a unique charm. I even got the feeling this building might have been some kind of factory, maybe even for tanks! But the main thing here is the atmosphere — it’s unbeatable. One of the best spots I’ve been to.

First visit and had a great time. Both indoor and outdoor seating available. 3 distinct indoor areas one of which is the patio but its enclosed if cool weather. Cherry lemonades (pictured) are delicious Great burger as well! Definitely will be back!

The service was great, our waitress was extremely nice and our food was very good. Get the house made potato chips, they come plain, old bay or garlic Parmesan. Free parking, and a covered outside dining area.

The food here was delicious. I had the pork chops and they melted in my mouth. Prices were reasonable and it was an easy walk from our stay at the White Birch Inn which was also nice.

The food was great and the portion size was big. Service was fantastic even on a busy night. They have live music (we went to see Brett Alexander and Dustin Duglas). Three of the four of us ordered burgers and they were well cooked and the other person ordered another meal. The waitress was always around checking on us and our drinks were always full. The only negative thing I have to say about this place is that there were buckets ALL over the restaurant because of leaks in the roof. As a matter of fact, a new one opened up over the back of the patio bar while we were there.

This was my boyfriend and I's first time at the Forge. We really loved our waitress, Julie! She was so kind, quick, and helpful. We order the fried pickles and the spicy cheese curds. The spicy cheese curds were medium spicy for us as we love spicy food! They were really delicious though. The breading is where the spice is. The fried pickles were also very peppery, but really, really good. Both were crispy and not soggy. I ordered the chicken Caesar wrap and it was SO good. The grilled chicken was so good. It had a good balance of chicken and lettuce. The dressing was also awesome. My boyfriend got the turkey club. It was well balanced. We both got the garlic parm chips. Overall, great meal and wonderful service! Thank you for a great first experience.

First time we ate there food was average. Decided to try again. Food was very good. If they have, you must try there potato pancakes. Better than most church picnics.

Found this gem by accident when the place we'd navigated to was recently shut down. Staff and (obvious) regular customers were so friendly and welcoming. The food was fabulous. We had the fried haddock (lightly breaded and super flavorful) and the roast beef dinner (tender & well-seasoned... (coleslaw slaw was fantastic also!)
