The Mountain Room Peak Lodge - Newry

This is a fantastic place to warm up in the middle of the day and enjoy a beer. However, the food is overpriced, and the portions are quite small. If you're simply looking for a spot to sit at the bar and have a drink, it's definitely worth a visit.

Sunday River is our home mountain, and we often head to the Mountain Room for drinks. I definitely recommend it for a beer; it has a lively atmosphere both indoors and on the deck, which is particularly enjoyable on nice days. However, I have to express my disappointment with the food. Last weekend, we brought a group to the mountain and chose to have lunch at the Mountain Room. I was underwhelmed. While the food was decent, the portion sizes and prices were frankly outrageous. The 'entrees' didn’t even feel like proper meals. For instance, I paid $18 for a single small taco (see photo), and the grilled cheese with tomato soup was $15, but it came with just a small glass of soup that wasn't even full, and the grilled cheese was made with such tiny slices of ciabatta that if you put two sandwiches together, they might barely make a standard-sized sandwich. I know mountain dining tends to be pricier, and I was prepared for that, but it's disappointing when everyone in our group left what should have been a reasonably priced lunch still feeling hungry. I will definitely return for a beer, but I won’t be ordering food again.

The food here is absolutely outstanding for a ski resort! The staff is consistently attentive and welcoming. The views are fantastic, and the deck is the ideal spot to enjoy a beautiful spring day.

Once loyal fans of the mountain room turned NEVER again. Terrible terrible terrible!!! As bad as customer service gets. We had a reservation and the host placed us in the bar area not letting us know that we had no server and had to walk up to the bar to order. After waiting for 20 minutes, I walked up to the host to ask if we had a server. She watched me standing there, while she went on to wipe down the same table TWO times while the restaurant was dead, again watching me stand at the host station. She ended up moving us to a table where we had a waitress. When we said we wanted to order food the waitress looked stressed because the kitchen was closing. Would have been nice to know when the kitchen closed, as we wasted a half hour just sitting there while not one staff member came up to us. It gets better...... The waitress tells her manager that she had to put a food order in as the kitchen was closing and the manager obnoxiously rolled her eyes right in front of us. The waitress told us we had another hour until they stoped serving drinks, so we ordered one more round. A few minutes after receiving our drinks the bartended clapped her hands and yelled out to the entire restaurant time to finish up people we have a gondola to catch . Yikes. You 're not fooling us theyre not going to leave you stranded up here. We get the picture you were ready to be done with your shift. We live in the Portland area and frequent the Grill room on a regular weekly basis, and the mountain room on a regular basis when skiing every weekend. Needless to say we will no longer be stopping at any of the room establishments. Best of luck if you do!!

Came in for a hot cocoa left with a smile and a few Maine beers and Erica and Sarah T can do this job blind folded the best service comes at 3,000 feet. Recommend coming after lunch cuz you will not want to leave. Thank you @mountainroom and shout out to Sara T and Erica Best blue bird day. Food is five star!
