"Blyth & Burrows, a beautifully renovated Old Port cocktail spot, actually boasts three bars: two in the main entrance and a separate speakeasy downstairs. It’s tight quarters, but the ambience is warm and inviting. One of the most well-thought-out cocktail lists in the city is divided into four categories: The Americas (with American, Mexican and Caribbean bases), Old World (with European bases), Silk Road (with Asian or Middle Eastern flavors), and Navy Strength (big and boozy). Drinks are tirelessly honed to perfection before they make it on the menu." - Joe Ricchio

The best place in Portland to get a cocktail. I usually try a few things off the menu, but this time I did get a few drinks I thought were too sweet. I wish I had tried the Tom Yum Punch. But the service is great, drinks are pricey but worth it.

Blythe & Burrows was a top notch nightcap stop on our fun Tuesday in Portland. The service was fantastic and gave great recommendations. I really liked the whiskey single barrel picks available to try, and the cocktails were inventive. The actual establishment/bar was also huge, with several options for seating. Highly recommend!

I cannot say enough awesome things about this bar! Three bars in one essentially, with the hidden one pulling off a mild speakeasy vibe. Light appetizers is all that's on the menu, but it's more than enough and I'm here to tell you they are delicious! Especially the deviled legs. The cocktails are fantastic, although you may need to be opened minded to find one to your liking. IMO, they have put new twists on to some classics. Highly recommend if you are looking for an upscale cocktail experience! LOVE it.

Such an elegant place with a relaxed and intimate vibe. Staff are super friendly and the drinks are top notch. Bonus for having a minj speakeasy inside.

This was a great place to have some awesome beer and amazing cocktails. Great selection and very friendly staff. The bartender is a genius ... the Spinacher has an awesome taste for a Gin and Spinach combo. Not to mention the Liquid Nitro Stout literally from down the street. Amazing 😍

Drinks were great , atmosphere better upstairs than in the speakeasy but the music was on point in the back . Bartenders were really interactive and had great conversation with my boyfriend and myself

Wednesday in Portland was lovely! Heard through another local spot that there were $1 oysters on Wednesdays. Rushed right over a got a table quick because it's popular. Great rum punch special. Cool vibe, great service. Damariscotta oysters! Eighty percent of all Maine oysters are harvested from the Damariscotta river. Truly clean and refreshing medium ones. Must visit while in Portland!

Visited Portland from Chicago and had to check out the cocktail scene; this being the highest rated, it was a no-brainer. The cocktails ended up being good, but not great. I see the innovative attempt being made, but the final products on the menu, particularly for shaken options, were just fine. The atmosphere though is great and really cozy!
