Commander Samuel Blyth and Lt. William Burrows

"The captain of HMS Boxer, Commander Samuel Blyth, was killed early in the action by a cannonball; had he lived he might have defended his ship more desperately, but it is not probable with more success. It was his fate now to receive like courtesy at the hands of his enemy. His remains, in company with those of the brave Lieutenant William Burrows, were brought to Portland, where they were interred with military honours in Eastern Cemetery. It was a striking and affecting sight, to behold two gallant commanders, who had lately been arrayed in deadly hostility against each other, descending into one quiet grave, there to mingle their dust peacefully together."

I had high expectations for this place and they exceeded them. Phenomenal craft cocktails. I might even say some of the absolute best I've had. Gorgeous presentation, cool vibe, excellent service. Can't imagine it getting any better than this.
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a great review
Two of us sat at the front bar shortly after Blyth & Burrows opened and were immediately made to feel welcome by a bartender who I believe is named Taylor. We ordered a prosecco and a beer but, after watching her craft some amazing cocktails, one of us decided to order the Long Boat Key (a tasty work of art!). The pretzels we ordered to snack on (and the dips they came with) were delicious! Taylor was kind enough to give us some recommendations when we asked where we should go for dinner. Our whole experience at Blyth & Burrows was positive and if we're ever back in Portland we'll be at those bar stools again!
Response from the owner: So glad you got to experience what we offer. Thanks for the great review
Very cool bar with great drinks and unique atmosphere - love the styling and it was a cozy place to chill with some friends on a nice day. The outdoor ship seating is so cool!
Really nice speakeasy with delicious, fun cocktails and friendly staff!
Had a champagne cocktail & this chilled octopus dish with long beans. Very Spanish, very tasty. Came here to connect with a friend and although the bar was a bit rowdy, we were able to hear each other through it all. Highly recommend this place.
This place was dope as you can already tell! Very laid back, classy vibe inside. Food was good, and a great drink list. You must stop in when you’re in Portland. You will not be disappointed.
Come for the cocktails and stay for the snacks! Excellent place for a pre- or post- dinner cocktail. We planned to grab drinks before a dinner reservation at Miyake. We were intrigued by the menu so we ended up ordering the deviled eggs and the charred oysters. So glad we did, both were very good and had a nice twist to traditional preparation. We had 2 cocktails each, trying different options, and thought all 4 cocktails were fabulous. Can't go wrong!
We visited Blyth and Burrows during our recent trip to Portland as it came highly recommended from a friend. We parked around the corner in the parking garage and walked over. The neighborhood is very lively and eclectic with lots of unique shops and eateries.When we arrived we observed how small and crowded it was. This definitely spoke to it's popularity! After a short wait we were seated along the front window. This was a great seat to enjoy the atmosphere, even if it was a bit of a tight squeeze with the other patrons.We ordered the Frieda Fuzzypaws and the Ship Captain Crew. Both drinks were very enjoyable! We loved our visit and would return in the future.
They not only had my favorite beer on tap, but the cocktail menu was robust. My pals, they loved the cocktails.
Just amazing cocktails. Blew my mind.
Large selection of unique cocktails made with inhouse sodas. Grab a seat outside and enjoy the sounds of Portland.
