How Many of These Bangor, Maine Restaurants Have You Been To?
Bangor may be known as the Queen City of the East, but when it comes to restaurants, it could easily be called the 'Queen City of the Eats.'

Home to a wide variety of dining options, Bangor’s food scene ranges from quick, casual eateries perfect for a fast bite to eat, to upscale restaurants housed in historic bank buildings, offering a more, let’s say, 'refined' dining experience.
Seriously, there's something to satisfy every palate in Bangor—even the pickiest of eaters.
In 2023, Bangor's restaurant scene flourished with new favorites joining the mix and existing ones thriving. Additionally, Bangor benefited from bustling tourism and foot traffic, drawn in part by another year of spectacular summer concerts at the Maine Savings Amphitheater on the Bangor Waterfront.
2023 was certainly a standout year for dining and entertainment in Bangor, and 2024 has some seriously big shoes to fill.
In addition to the concerts on the Bangor Waterfront, Maine is already known as 'Vacationland.'
That means tourists were out in full force last year for another post-COVID summer in Maine, and we’re expecting a lot of the same this year.
Despite the occasional gloomy weather in Maine last year, the mild winter we just had has set a promising tone, and hopefully, this summer will be sunny, making outdoor dining a whole lot more enjoyable.
To highlight Bangor's great dining scene, we compiled a list of the city's top 24 highest-rated restaurants from TripAdvisor.
Now, we're curious: how many of these Bangor spots have you had the pleasure of dining at?
