New Bar Opening on Wharf Street in Portland, Maine, This Week

And just like that, a new bar is coming to town.

As soon as you think you know about all the new spots hitting Portland, another one pops up. We are constantly welcoming new establishments to the city and it’s an exciting journey to always be a part of.

A new spot is opening up this week with a scheduled opening day of Thursday, April 13 right here on Wharf Street. The Old Port is overflowing with incredible places to pop in for a drink or sit down for a nice meal and this will be a new spot to add to your list.

Room for Improvement Opening in Portland, Maine

Room for Improvement will sit pretty at 41 Wharf Street and will be open Thursday-Monday from 5 p.m. - 1 a.m. for all of your after work or late night drink needs.

Portland Food Map shared the news on Instagram, sharing the spot and the menu to get us excited.

As the post shares, the new spot will take a modern spin on local dive bars by balancing serious cocktails with a “we aren’t taking it too seriously” vibe. It’ll be a cool and casual hang out but with some seriously good drinks.

A glance at the menu will tell you that they will be offering house takes on traditional cocktails, scorpion bowls, daiquiris, wine, draft beers, ciders, and mini-shot cocktails with a small food menu.

The best part? The small food menu has RED SNAPPAH HOT DOGS, BABY.

This is what Portland needs! A bar downtown that slings red snappers until 1 a.m. This is so important to me.

You can grab yourself a hot dog paired with a nice cocktail this very week. The spot should be opening on Thursday, so keep your eye out.
