New Portland, Maine, Bar Specializes in Hand Crafted Cocktails on Tap

There are a million bars in Portland, but only one that has so many amazing cocktails on tap!

Leisure Time Cocktail Company is new and fun and you need to go there. They make small-batch craft cocktails. But they have them on tap and canned beverages using local Maine/ New England ingredients and premium spirits. Plus a little science of botany and molecular gastronomy. It's not snooty, it's a good drink you can sit back, relax, and have fun with.

Where is my new favorite bar in Portland, Maine?

Leisure Time is new in the Thompson Point area just past Bissel Brothers. Since they are new (opened just a few months ago) they are a nice surprise to those heading to show at Thompson's Point or the Children's Museum of Maine. Their actual address is 290 Thompson's Point Road in Portland. Put that in your GPS now.

Does Leisure Time in Portland, Maine also have food?

Oh, they do. It's not a dinner place, it's a drink and fun food place. So if you want a meat, potatoes, and veggie dinner, this isn't it. But if you are looking for nachos, deviled eggs, and brisket tacos to share for the table - this is 100% your new jam.

Plus, it's the only place I know that Patrick at Leisure Time has vowed to never let someone have a Pickleback alone. What's a Pickleback? Why it's a shot, chased by a pickle juice shot. Hey, don't knock it till you try it, and Patrick won't let you try it alone.
