More on that later.<\/p>\n<p>We wandered into an Italian market that made me wonder what all those things people had been hawking as Italian all my life actually were.&nbsp; Eventually, I found my way into this little bar-restaurant called the East Ender. &nbsp;I bellied up to the bar for a quick drink. &nbsp;Was pleasantly surprised by their selection of spirits. &nbsp;Still figuring out just how seriously Portlander\u2019s took their food and drink! &nbsp;Bartender quickly handed me a menu and asked if there was anything she could get me.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7837\"

We swap stories of favorite drinks and recipes, and start to discover first hand how large a role food and drink plays in the lives of Portlanders, nice!<\/p>\n<p>Finishing my drink and reluctantly rejoining the rest of my party at the Duckfat we enjoy our very late lunch, which was also incredibly delicious.&nbsp; At the end of our meal a few of my friends decide that they are going to order dessert. &nbsp;Not being much of a sweets person, I excuse myself to return to the East Ender for another drink. &nbsp;Really couldn\u2019t simply just try one of their creations, what if it was just a fluke that it happened to be so tasty. &nbsp;Walked back in and decided this time to try the East Ender Sazerac, Famous Grouse Bourbon, Absinthe, honey, bitters, and lemon and was not disappointed. &nbsp;Decided without a doubt that it was no fluke, this establishment truly made fine cocktails.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>East Ender Ambiance:<\/h2>\n<p>Overall, the bar was small but cozy, with lots of individual seating areas perfect for a small gathering of friends. &nbsp;The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, willing to make you something not on the menu if you asked for it.&nbsp; I wandered in on a Friday around 3:30 so it was a pretty quiet but the bartender told me that she would be getting her happy hour crowd in soon.&nbsp; On the list to try would be the brunch Bloody Marys with smoked tomato juice and the tea infused grapefruit Vodka. If you happen to be in the Portland area, this place is worth a visit, if you happen to be in the New England area this place is worth a visit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Contact East Ender:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/eastenderportland.com\/\">http:\/\/eastenderportland.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>47 Middle St | Portland, Maine |&nbsp;<a href=\"tel:2078797669\">207-879-7669<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>East Ender Restaurant and Bars: <\/p>\n<p>On a recent trip to Maine decided to stop for a meal in Portland. &nbsp;Having heard great things about their food culture we wanted to &#8230; <br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/midnightmixologist.com\/index.php\/2017\/08\/23\/behind-the-bar-east-ender-restaurant-and-bars\/\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7838,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[381,413],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7835","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","category-behind-the-bar"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>East Ender Restaurant and Bars Portland Maine visit to the bar<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"East Ender Restaurant and Bars visit and cocktail review in Portland Maine.
