Reviews for Scootic In Restaurant in Millinocket, ME
Food was amazing! However, the server Patti was rude and about as personable as a lawn ornament. Shame really because it was the... only reason we would not return. Some people shouldn?t work with the general public, especially when there are so many jobsavailable at the circus! Read more

Friendly staff! Delicious Blackened Haddock!!! If I went back there I would try a shrimp dish too as it looked delicious on my... way out the door. We spent our whole day hiking in Baxter State Park and pulled into this restaurant at 8:00 at night. Ourfood was so delicious I wanted to hug the cook. I would eat here again and again if I lived here! Read more
Our waitress, Regan, was fantastic. It was her first day on her own after a few days of training. Everything else not so much.... The food was good but took forever (it was a Friday night) and there was an item forgotten. We would not return. Everyone(except our waitress) seemed frazzled. Read more
Oct. 9, 2021 - Ever heard the story ? Little Engine That Could?? The Scootic In & Millinocket reminds me of that train engine ... working hard to climb that hill . . . After hiking around Baxter Park with my wife and Nikon camera on a perfect autumn day, westopped in around 5:30 pm at the Scootic In . A very polite hostess told us of the ? wait?. . . after reading the large Covidsign on the door we accept that most restaurants in Maine are in short supply of employees, so the owners asked for yourpatience. I purchased drinks at the bar, and we looked over the menu while waiting for our table. Amber, our server, guided usto our table after 20 minutes. The dining room & bar were packed. . . So we ordered our appetizer & dinner all at once, withour wait about another 15 minutes! All was good! There?s about 7 salad choices, we enjoyed the Greek Salad first! Menu choicesincluded seafood, burgers, sandwiches, pub appetizers, steaks & chicken . . . we ordered the 14 inch homemade pizza ( pepperoni,extra cheese, and onions on half )! After another 10 minutes our delicious looking pizza arrived. Very satisfying pizza too! Thank you for a good meal!

I wasn't sure what to expect, because it seems to be the most happening place in Millinocket. We sat in the bar area which was... clean and the noise level was medium. They didn't have a drink menu so I asked the waitress what she would suggest for a mixeddrink. It was something with pineapple, orange juice, and Malibu? She gave us a paper menu, which makes sense with covid,however nobody in the place had a mask on. I went in to the restroom and was sad when there wasn't any soap, but the bathroomwas incredibly clean. I got back to my seat and finally tried my drink which was actually quite good. We ordered sweet chiliwings and calzones. They both came to the table very fast. The wings were phenomenal. Crunchy with the sweet chili sauce theyrank at the top 5 on my wing list. The calzone was really good, I had the pepperoni, with mushrooms, green pepper, onion, andjalapeno. It was a good experience overall. I highly recommend those wings! Read more
Their food was very delicious! The seafood, pasta and pizza were all thoroughly enjoyed!
Great place! Plenty of seating. Friendly and helpful staff were very attentive. Never waited for anything. The Greek salad with... salmon was amazing! Can tell the dressing is home made! Read more
