"And end the day with award-winning cocktails, fantastic food, and unparalleled hospitality at Magnus on Water." - Travel + Leisure Editors

"Dine at Peruvian-influenced Magnus On Water, where dishes like sea bass sashimi and braised short rib with spicy yuca and sweet potato pair well with innovative cocktails such as the Black Mamba, a tequila-based cocktail featuring caramelized, sparkling, and salty fruit additions. Beverage director Brian Catapang’s operation was recently named one of the best cocktail bars in the world by the new Pinnacle Guide." - Stasia Brewczynski

"Chef Ben Jackson, formerly of Drifters Wife, moved to Magnus on Water after it received a pandemic reboot. There he joined former Elda bartender Brian Catapang and general manager Brittany Saliwanchik, along with partners Julia Russell and Carmen Harris, to serve up original cocktails and small plates like sherry-steamed clams and sugar snap peas with goat cheese, mint, and country ham. Find a seat on the adjoining outdoor patio, which overlooks the nearby Saco River." - Kate McCarty

"As one of the newest places that is helping ensure Biddeford isn’t known just for the famous (and delicious) Palace Diner, Magnus on Water is a great reason to extend your day trip to this town into the evening." - Briana Volk

"Slated to open in late summer or early fall. The menu will feature foraged ingredients, and Brittany Saliwanchik and Brian Catapang will create the cocktail menu." - Dana Hatic
