Night Mares / Prarie Baking - Review - Munjoy Hill - Portland, ME - The Infatuation

"If you learn about this spot from a local, inevitably, they’ll stop mid-sentence to gesticulate just how good the cake is. During the first part of the week, Prairie Baking is not open to the public and produces cakes for weddings and parties. But on the weekends, it’s open both as the bar Night Mares and a cafe in the mornings. The bar has a suite of standout cocktails like a spritz that combines Oyster River pet-nat with some yuzu sake, a few taps of local beer, great goùgeres, and a laid-back atmosphere. In the morning, pop in for coffee and any of a dozen types of pastries and cookies. And whether you come at night or during the day, obviously get a slice of layer cake." - Olex Ponomarenko

I went on a Thursday in summertime and it was too loud for me. I've been there during slower times and have been able to have a quiet conversation and play cards. They have cake, and it's very, very good. Cocktails are also good and the bartenders are very attentive and kind.

Amazing cocktails! Make sure to visit this hidden gem! We had the Green Ghoul cocktail and a slice of cake. The cocktails and cake felt like works of art. Truly in a league of their own. We will be back!

Incredible! A hidden gem that I argue is one of the best bars in town. They have a well balanced cocktail menu that would appeal to anyone's spirit of choice (The Green Ghoul is my absolute favorite). The staff are always friendly and the place has great vibes.

Awesome little spot off the beaten path near Washington Ave in the East end. Owners are great people. Cocktails are great. They always have orange bike brewing for GF folks. Sunday evening Irish music nights are a really cool, intimate experience. And one time, late on a Saturday night, I arrived to the bar for my last stop nightcap and they were playing the Lord of the Rings extended edition on a projector behind the bar. How can you beat that? That's right, you can't!

Fiancée and I stopped in on a whim while we were waiting for a dinner reservation. This is such a cool spot. Great atmosphere and music selection, they have board games available, and they were playing old B-movies on a projector for extra entertainment. Loved it and will definitely come back next time we’re in Portland.

Night Mares is a MUST GO! The drinks were delicious and the bartenders were so friendly and fun to talk to! We got nightmares on the prairie (pictured below) and the cucumber mint gimlet. Thanks for the amazing time! 😀

This is the best bar in Portland. The cake was delicious and that Thunderbolt drink is something special. The bartenders were so friendly to me and my wife. Will be the first place I go next time I'm back in Portland!

I just recently heard of this place, so my friend and I stopped by for a drink. It's located right behind Hardshore Distillery in an old industrial building. They renovated it really nice with a big garage door they can open so it has an indoor outdoor feel. The drinks I got were good and refreshing. Overall a cool new spot!
